    The perfect lunch date! My friend and I work from home and we're both craving sushi (most spots do not open until dinner) so we lucked up when we found one open for lunch. Located in the Capitol Hill area, its almost unassuming unless you know what you're looking for. The space was clean & quaint - very quiet - only a few patrons. Our server was so attentive and made his presence known frequently. They cleaned our table after every dish so nothing piled up and constantly asked for feedback which we were happy to offer (no notes). We ordered a few apps - Hamachi, Fried Rice, Spicy Tuna Avocado 8pcs w/ Nigiri Black Snapper, Snapper Miso Ceviche, Edamame, Seaweed Salad with "Dreams Come True" & "Sexy Lip" cocktails to wash it down. We loved everything except the nigiri black snapper which was an acquired taste. This is somewhere I would absolutely return and try their dinner menu

    I appreciated that we could walk in on a Monday night without reservations and not feel underdressed. (We had been walking around DC all day) My husband and I each got the chef sushi platter, I thought it was plenty of food, but my husband also ordered an extra salmon roll afterwards. Everything that came in the sushi platter was delicious, though I thought the ceviche was a little too sweet. However, the sushi roll that we got at the end had too much rice (The ratio was off) and was kind of a disappointing way to end the night.

    Sushi Hachi is a really cozy restaurant nestled in the historic Eastern Market neighborhood. We were able to find parking right in front of the restaurant on a Thursday evening. We were seated quickly at the bar. There weren't too many people so they had plenty of seating. I opted for their Chef's sushi platter. For $30 I felt like you got a lot for what you paid for. Also their regular sushi rolls are super affordable too. Love that! - Edamame was fine nothing special - miso soup was also fine, kind of salty - snapper miso ceviche, loved how colorful it was and the chips that came with it. I do wish it had a little bit of a kick to it. It was a bit too sweet for my liking. - 5 piece nigiri. Tasty. My favorite was the salmon followed by the tuna - Yellowtail cilantro roll. My favorite of the night however it wasn't anything that I would go out of my way for I loved the plates and the small ceramic glasses that they give you with your hot sake. And our waitress was friendly and helpful. Also note that Sushi Hachi was voted one of the best sushi restaurants in DC. Not sure what year this was but congratulations. Thank you!

    Soooo good! I'm in DC often for work and I'm always in the lookout for a good spot for lunch or dinner. This restaurant is in the Capitol Hill area and near Navy Yard where I stayed. The restaurant was not busy on a Monday night. The staff was friendly and helpful. They got me and my dinner date sat quickly and got our orders out quickly too. I ordered a couple sushi rolls and edamame. Also ordered the crème brûlée for dessert. If you're looking for delicious, well made sushi for dinner in a modern place!!

    This place is such a gem in Capitol Hill! They offer incredible sushi rolls for just $8, along with great specials and platters that are perfect for sharing or sampling a bit of everything. There are also some standout specialty rolls--my favorite was the Capitol Roll. I could've eaten 15 of them--they were that good! The atmosphere strikes a nice balance: it's casual, but with a slightly elevated feel--somewhere between a laid-back sushi spot and a more upscale restaurant. Definitely a go-to for quality sushi at a great price.

    I appreciated Sushi Hachi for seating me (with no reservation) and serving me quickly. I visited for the first time yesterday night before attending a show at the Miracle Theater and was in a bit of a rush, but was still able to enjoy my meal because of how quick and efficient the service was. The food was delicious. I ordered the Chef's Special which, as a nigiri lover, allowed me to try a number of different menu items I wanted without having to order so much food. The Yellowtail Cilantro roll was my favorite. The Snapper Miso ceviche was a bit on the sweet side for me with the yuzu, but the presentation made up for it.

    Chef's platter. Reminds me of a deconstructed poké bowl.

    Clean, enjoyable food. Terrific ambience and attentive service. Colleague and I stopped through here yesterday. Had it bookmarked for a while based on Yelp reviews. The interiors are beautiful. Service was friendly although it started a bit - odd. They redeemed themselves nicely. I had a CHEF'S PLATTER that showed up looking more like a poké bowl - arranged on a plate. Nicer selection of seafood. There was a piece of fried eel and a piece of smoked octopus along with the other sushi. Nice touch. My colleague got a couple of sushi rolls. The drinks were nice, although the menu is limited on the drink side. They only have about five options. We had miso soup, and edamame (nicely salted) and I had a wonderful SNAPPER CEVICHE. I thought that sounded novel and it definitely tasted as good as I expected it would. Probably my favorite on the table. We also had: +Tasting Platter--EDAMAME, Today's Miso Soup, Veggie (sliced zucchini ) Tempura, Chirashi Bowl (Today's Best Sashimi 10 Pieces Over A Bed Of Sushi Rice), + Shrimp Tempura (needed seasoning) Drink: Summer 夏 Brugal Anejo rum / lime juice/ blueberry/ mints/ club soda ^^ I had two of these they were so good. I like this place and will come back.

    Came here for lunch and had a great experience! We came during the off hour time so it was pretty empty. We got seated very quickly and the sushi was served quickly as well. Staff were friendly and very attentive and the ambiance is nice. It's like a typical sushi place. Great to come for a date or with friends. In terms of food, we ordered their salmon avocado roll, Alaska roll, and their salmon and yellow tail nigiri. All the fish was very fresh and super tasty. We even ordered an extra roll because the first few rolls were so good. To top it off, the food was priced really well so you'll definitely get the best bang for your buck. Would highly recommend!

    I had a wonderful Mother's Day with my adult son, at Sushi Hachi. It was quiet, which is what I enjoy, while eating sushi, and thinking of Japanese culture. The sushi has always been fresh, beautifully presented, the dishes are so graceful, there were fresh tulips on each table, a perfect lunch with my most favorite first born. And, for the most part of it, we had the restaurant all to ourselves, on Mother's Day, who can ask for more? We had lunch at around 3:30, so it was not quite dinner time and a bit past lunch, for those of you who are thinking Oko, why was it empty on such a busy Sunday? I highly recommend this restaurant. Wonderful experience each time we went. Thank You!

    Started with the Red Snapper ceviche. It was so good that I reverted to a fork to clear the bowl. I accompanied the meal with the house hot sake that paired well with the fish. It was a nice upgrade to my usual draft beer selection. I had two rolls and both were excellent. The spicy tuna avocado roll was superb and the yellowtail scallion roll was fresh and very tasty. I added a third roll, called the Alaska. It was a great combination and was the perfect way to end a celebratory evening. The service is always the star of the night at Sushi Hachi! My server was attentive and quick while looking calm and zen throughout. The managers/owners each stopped by the table and we talked about the neighborhood and I felt a connection to my Capitol Hill community. All-around it was an outstanding evening. Will return as often as I can!

    It's kinda a quiet place but the food is very good, expensive tasting fish and hot steak plate is a conversation starter

    One of the best sushi spots around! You have a wet towel at each place setting. The rolls are priced well and are delicious. Try one of the drink specials!

I got the Kaiba King roll which had scallops, crab, and foie gras. There were varied reviews on my roll, but as someone who adores all those things and more simpler rolls, I loved this one. It was so good. Everything was on the pricier side and there is an automatic tip, which I didn't mind (I expected this with a Wharf restaurant). I'd come back here for more sushi if I was in the area.

Sushi by Bou is located inside the CitizenM Hotel a modern and stylish hotel in L'Enfant Plaza. I recently had the chance to check it out and it did not disappoint. They offer both a 12-course and 17-course omakase experience. This time I opted for the 12-course menu. An added bonus is that it's only $55 when you use the code "Summer555" in the Special Requests box when making your reservation through OpenTable. I'm not sure how long this promotion will last so I definitely recommend taking advantage of it while you can. As soon as you step off the elevator, you're transported into a modern 1970s-inspired atmosphere complete with disco balls, vibrant colors, and incredible views of the U.S. Capitol and Washington Monument. I was warmly greeted and quickly seated at the sushi bar, where you get a front-row seat to all the action in the kitchen. Each course was beautifully prepared and thoughtfully presented. The chefs were knowledgeable, engaging, and took the time to explain every piece. My top three favorites were the Miso Cod, BBQ Eel, and Salmon Roe. Everything about Sushi by Bou was a vibe.

A few highlights from my visit: The 12-course omakase was delicious, with each piece thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented. One of the best omakase deals around at $55 for 12 courses. If you're planning to go, take advantage of their special offer by reserving Sunday through Thursday at 5 PM and using the code 555. The chef was incredibly knowledgeable and did a great job explaining the fish and preparation throughout the meal. The serving staff were attentive, friendly, and kept the experience running smoothly. Intimate atmosphere that makes the omakase feel special without being overly formal. One thing to note is that the cocktails are a bit pricey, averaging around $20 per drink. While they were well-made, the food was definitely the star of the show for me. Another bonus is th e rooftop bar. Whether you visit before or after your reservation, it's a great spot for photos and offers a nice way to extend the experience beyond the meal itself. Overall, Sushi by Bou delivers an impressive omakase experience at a very reasonable price point. Between the quality of the fish, the knowledgeable chef, attentive service, and the rooftop bar, it's a spot I'd happily recommend to anyone looking for a memorable sushi experience in DC.

Abu was also incredibly kind and attentive, and General Manager Lenny personally stopped by our table to ask about our experience. The entire staff made us feel so welcome.

Hiya is also a cute little space, although it's one of several restaurants within the Love, Makoto complex. The restaurant itself has a pretty floral theme, but the open layout and surrounding restaurants give it more of a mall food court feel.
