    Firecracker
    Deborah B.

    Our server Cedric was fantastic, drinks, apps and dinner were served Ina timely manner, with a friendly sense of humor. 11 gals for dinner after a spa day- we were a handful. They offer creative drinks, with a full bar you can find something to enjoy. The menu is not just sushi. The table favorite app was seared salmon belly. Melts in your mouth. Miso soup was a strong miso flavor with cubes of tofu and green onion,

    The food was amazing, we had the crazy tuna, dragon roll, and their sushi of the month. It was all fun to eat and burst of distinct flavor from each of the rolls. We love the creativity of blending and mixing ingredients. And how it plays to the taste of the food. The service was also good. It took some time to get an attendant in the front to assist with getting a seat despite the non busy hours. However, after we sat down, our orders and concerns were addressed immediately. The atmosphere in the dining area was really nice. Immersed with the Japanese vibes and culture. However, when you use the restroom, this is a different topic. I believe the staff made sure that every area was clean before opening. I do suggest that someone would check at least the status. Imagine your customer being delighted with all the food and seeing gruesome in your cubicle would paint a bad experience and all the delicious food and service were tainted. Overall food and service wise, this is a good experience.

    This place is always amazing. This location was in the square where there are usually events being held. We got here right when it opened but was welcomed in with open arms. Service is always amazing and the staff is always attentive, regardless of how busy they are. There large dragon mural on the back wall was really colorful and bold. Sitting at the bar, you get to see the sushi chefs doing their thing. It was a bar hopping day so we ate lite. Regardless of the fact, the food was amazing and the plating is always impressive.

    The ambiance as soon as you walk in was aesthetically pleasing. I loved the big mural in the back. Our food was prepared quickly and had a lovely presentation. The flavors were there and everything reminded me of Japan! If you're looking to switch up your brunch plans, I recommend check this spot out.

    Tried some items from their new brunch menu. The flavors were good, but the portion size was just too small. I would have enjoyed it more if the portions were larger and I actually felt somewhat full. It felt like all the items were kid portion sizes. The hamburger was like a meatball. The pancake can be finished in 4 bites and the size of a small platter. The meat was cooked well and soft. After paying $70+, still starving and had to go to another restaurant. Meter parking outside or you can park at the parking lots (90 min free parking before getting charged) near the restaurant.

    Sushi Boat
    Brian L.

    We ordered the sushi boat for two and it was just the right amount of food. Having so many different cuts to try from was a fun experience and each slice was very high quality. The service was fast and we didn't have to wait very long for our food to come either. There was plenty of seating inside and a large bar. Overall just good things to say about this place and would come back for a nice night out.

    I've been here a couple times and had good service every time. The hostess heard my boyfriend say it was my birthday and she gave us a free dessert that we weren't expecting! We also got Otoro and Chutoro and it just melted in your mouth!(not pictured i forgot to take a pic) We also got the salmon avocado ball but the salmon inside was ICE COLD, i was crunching on ice crystals with the tuna. All in all good service.

    If you live in the DMV, you probably know Kusshi, especially since it has been expanding significantly in the past few years. Their seared fatty salmon is where it's at, and it really melts in your mouth (currently offered on their happy hour menu for $8 for 2 pcs). We came for happy hour (Mon-Fri from 3-6pm in the whole restaurant), and the deals are great, especially their drink deals. We ordered their kusshi noodles (waitress recommendation), and it was ok (seemed like something I would order for a picky kid in the group).

    Kusshi Canoe for Two
    Julia W.

    We had an amazing experience at Kusshi. They were packed but they were able to get us a table fast. I ordered miso soup for an appetizer; it came quickly and was delicious - definitely not the powdered stuff! It also had real tofu chunks in it which I loved. For our main, we ordered the sushi boat for two. It was INCREDIBLE. Super fresh fish, and the two specialty pieces of fatty seared salmon was the highlight of the boat. Highly recommend if you're looking for fresh sushi!

    Dejah M.

    The bestttttt late night spot. Cedric is the absolute best. The happy hour seared salmon is $4 for two pieces!!!! So worth it. Will always request Cedric when I come into town! He recommended great things and was very attentive. Everyone was here having a great time! Closes at 12am, definitely hit it up. There were chill groups, there were big crowds. Can never go wrong coming here. Will always be a stop when I come into town. Everyone very friendly.

    Kusshi Row Boat (76pc)
    Sue K.

    We ordered the row boat, which was plenty of food for a party of 5. Sushi rollls, sashimi, and nigiri were all great! They also have a great happy hour, that includes drinks and appetizers. The wings and Takoyaki appetizers were both delicious. The service was excellent! Would definitely come back again. Note: There is free garage parking available nearby for the first 90 minutes.

    The service is good for the size of the restaurant, so the ambiance is fitting. The food is consistent. I am partial to the Pike & Rose location. I like that it feels familiar and the food is satisfying. I think it is an incredible place to relax and enjoy yourself no matter how your day goes. It Kusshi good times will be had.

    Chicken udon noodle soup
    Ken L.

    Delicious with great service as usual. Got the katsudon, fried gyōza, and chicken udon to split with the kiddo. This place always has a great vibe with friendly staff. It's not a wonder why we come here all the time.

We made reservations since we were a group of 6 including 2 infants, and these were warranted as the restaurant progressively filled up as we got closer to peak brunch hours. We were offered a large booth, which was appreciated as we needed space for the babies. The food here tasted quite good. My wife ordered the Pork Belly Benedict, which offered tender-crisp, thick slices of braised pork belly atop soft, buttery focaccia and coated with well poached eggs and creamy hollandaise. We both highly enjoyed my Broadlands Breakfast Sandwich, a clever take on a standard bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich swapping crispy, perfectly sweet French toast for standard bread. The breakfast potatoes served alongside were crispy on the outside with fluffy interiors and good seasoning. Our friends enjoyed their sandwiches as well. As the name alludes, the drink program is strong and offers something for everyone. In addition to wine and whisky, a solid selection of both cocktails and draft beers are available. Prices for both food and drinks were quite reasonable given the quality of what we received. I do dock a star for just so-so service. Our waitress was a bit MIA during the first part of our meal when we were trying to order, and then kept checking in on us every 5 minutes once our food arrived. We also had to remind her a few times to get a high chair for our little one. Fortunately, the food and drinks all arrived accurately and within a timely manner once ordered. Service woes aside, the creative fare satisfied our taste buds and we look forward to returning soon for to sample more of the brunch menu and libations.

    Our first to this local wine and whiskey bar. We had read about their "crazy" hour and "happy…read morehour". The crazy hour was excellent. The drink and food specials were not to be missed. Our fantastic bar server was Abby. She joked about trying everything on the menu... and we almost did. Short of maybe one or two items, we did enjoy all the food. The drink pours really weee generous and the selection of crazy hour wines knocked it out of the park. Ambiance- well lots of outdoor space and garage door walls made it well lit and enjoyable. It's easy to slide from crazy hour to happy hour because of the food, drink and service.

The décor is beautiful, lots of gold accents and very clean. I honestly didn't expect the inside to be so elegant. Even the silverware is gold, and the plates have gold trim. It feels upscale but still warm and welcoming. We tried the lunch buffet and it was absolutely delicious. The food wasn't overly spiced, salty, or sweet, everything tasted balanced and made with care, like something your grandma would cook. I went around 1:45 PM expecting the buffet to look picked over or dry (like many places that late in service), but everything was fresh and fully stocked. Great variety, very flavorful, and the meats were well marinated. The staff was friendly and attentive, my water glass was never empty. Lunch buffet is $24.99 per person and absolutely worth it. They close at 2:30 PM and reopen for dinner at 4:30 PM. There's ample free parking and even a party room for larger gatherings. So happy to have found this place. I'll definitely be back!

One time there was nigiri made with stale rice, but at least that only happened once. I've had scales in the sushi a couple of times, and the bones have appeared at least three or four times. As far as the quality of the fish goes, it seems pretty hit or miss. I used to really enjoy the extra fatty tuna before I had a particularly bad order, and then I never bothered getting it again because it's a pricey order. The cuts also do not seem to be as generous as they once were. I've continued to give this place a chance because most of the servers have been very pleasant, and I've had some nice memories here. But last week I was at this location for a celebration, and we had sushi with both fish bones and a scale attached. The sushi with the bones was comped, but the sushi with the scale was not. I think I've hit my limit with this location. I'm also surprised that they don't seem to have taken better precautions against fish bones appearing in their sushi given that this has happened multiple times. As much as I've enjoyed coming here, I'm tired of having to wonder about whether or not I'll find something in my food again. Like I said, this is literally the only sushi restaurant that I've ever been to that I've had these issues with, let alone consistently. There are other places in the area that are worth going to if you're after sushi.
