    California Avocado (6pcs)

    Sushi Toro is one of the best Japanese restaurants in the DMV area. The fish is very fresh, and all the rolls are very tasty and wonderful. The service is great and prices are very reasonable. We will be back again and again!!

    I'm consistently impressed with this unassuming spot for sashimi, nigiri, and sushi. Everything I had was incredibly fresh and they do not skimp on the cuts. The service was attentive and intrusive, and it was a lovely quiet spot on an earlier Saturday evening. Recs: Peacock roll and salmon deluxe. The first time I tried them, we had their miso ramen (solid 6/10) and crab wontons (solid 4) which were alright - if I'm coming here it'll definitely be for the fish.

    Food: excellent - we tried 4 rolls and had miso soup. The tuna roll had some of the largest pieces of tuna I've ever had at a sushi restaurant. Service: super speedy & friendly Atmosphere: tucked in an inconspicuous strip mall, pleasant music playing, clean Price: really affordable Will be returning!!

    You'd never know you struck gold when looking at this spot from the outside.. but this is a gem of a place! Customer service was great and we didn't feel rushed to leave. We ordered Thai iced teas, soup and lots of sushi! Everything was great! I absolutely loved my sweet heart. Beautiful in presentation, I almost didn't want to eat it! And a wonderful journey for your tastebuds! Everything was so fresh! My friend got the lunch special which was a great deal 3 rolls for 12.99 and add soup or salad for 2.99 more. She got the sweet potato roll, eel with avocado and shrimp tempura. She enjoyed all her rolls! I'll definitely be back for more!!!

    Food: Very good, unique options for rolls, nigiri quality was questionable on some fish - some seemed frozen prior and not fresh. Service: long wait for take out on a week night Pricing: reasonable for the quality and compared to the area Decided last minute to do sushi take out and found this spot. Everything was packed nicely and miso soup was packed separate. Plenty of soy sauce and chopsticks. Ginger and wasabi was fresh. Overall would eat here again but probably skip the nigiri.

    A Staple in Our Love Story -- and Our Stomachs! Sushi Toro has become one of our all-time favorite spots. Jason took me here on our very first date, and it was an instant hit. Ever since, we've been coming back as often as we can -- and every time, it's just as wonderful. Last night, after a long, exhausting day at work, we headed over again. We were seated right away and chose to sit at the bar. The staff kindly switched the TV to the basketball game for us, which was such a thoughtful touch! We started off with a round of strawberry soju (so refreshing!) and the spicy hangover kimchi ramen as an appetizer -- and WOW. That ramen was out of this world. I genuinely had a moment where I wished I could rewind time just to enjoy it all over again. For drinks, I sipped on a glass of Sauvignon Blanc, while Jason had a beer. We shared two sushi rolls that were incredibly fresh and flavorful -- we honestly couldn't get enough. We also ordered the vegetable fried rice, which rounded out the meal perfectly. From the atmosphere to the service to every bite of food, Sushi Toro continues to impress. We'll absolutely be back -- again and again!

    Very yummy! We got the Lunch special which was 3 rolls for 13.50, not bad at all! Cozy place to get some good sushi.

    Service was great and the sushi was decent. Small spot but busy with orders and customers. I was happy to see so many take out orders and customers dining in. It seems like a loved local spot. I ordered the White Flint roll and Green Monster roll. The White Flint roll was tasty, not spicy at all even though the yellowtail was listed as spicy. The green monster was pretty bland. The spicy tuna inside the roll didn't have much kick. The seaweed salad was ok. I would come back to try other items, particularly a different roll and their poke bowl.

    Sushi Burrito

    10/10 everytime! I love going back here. The sushi burritos are my favorite thing ever.

    Everything's plated so nicely. I strongly recommend the Ponzu Salmon. The zesty citrus taste is spot on. Service is speedy and friendly. Love the store's atmosphere. Pictures taken from my friend's Little Red Book account. ID at the lower right corner.

    New secret menu toasted rice with spicy tuna, avocado, and mango at sushi Toro. Yum!

    Secret menu items at this AMAZING and small, great service sushi place? Yes please! Check out their new experiments with toasted sushi rice, spicy tuna, avocado, and a tiny dice of mango! Delicious. Their California rolls are always the best though. Don't miss this gem with plenty of free parking and great prices.

    My absolute favorite sushi place in town!! Everything we order is always absolutely delicious, with fresh ingredients and delicate presentation. The lunch special from 11AM-3PM is a very good deal. A review of the dishes from our most to least favorite: -Fatty salmon nigiri: the salmon just MELTS on your tongue, and the flavor is smoky - a must try! -Three roll lunch special (three hand rolls): we ordered the salmon roll, eel & avocado, and the philadelphia fresh salmon, and all three were a good size with flavors that complement each other well -Volcano maki: the crunchy flakes balance the shrimp tempura and crabmeat wonderfully -Flying dragon: the plating was beautiful, and the eel was warm when we ate it -Spicy crunchy scallop: the scallop was so fresh, each bite was delectable The interior is simple and understated, with rather limited seating but that never seems to be too crowded. The server is extremely friendly, and the service is fast considering the limited staff. There are many take-out orders.

It was really popular that evening, so the three of got squished at the table meant for two, but we didn't mind. The menu is pretty extensive, offering ramen, udon, tonkatsu, rice bowls, grilled fish sets, and more. We ordered pretty quickly, but with how busy it was, it took a bit for the food to come out CHILEAN SEA BASS - 37 As I scanned through, my eyes immediately fell on the miso sea bass. Despite the price point, I knew I had to go for it because sea bass is hard to find around here. This set came with rice, house salad, miso soup, and cold tofu. The sides were pretty standard -- no compliments, but no complaints either. On the other hand, the sea bass was wonderful. Super creamy and soft, with a strong miso sweetness that packed so much umami upon each bite. I would definitely splurge on this set just for the sea bass. My friend got the ramen and didn't love it, so I'll probably avoid that during future visits. The katsu curry that the table next to us ordered looked and smelled amazing. Overall, food was delicious and homey. I'd definitely recommend!

    Sushi night in my neck of the woods? Why not?!…read more I'm a huge fan of "hole in the wall" gems, and I think Akagi qualifies for that distinction. What do I mean? Well... It's a place that isn't too big, didn't have a crazy pop, but the food hits just right, every time. It's certainly a gem. Yesterday (Friday night), two friends (one celebrating a bday) and I wanted to get some sushi and keep it pushing. We went to Akagi right up the road and got ordering right away. The service? The staff was so kind and treated us like regulars. Jokes, refills, and the owner personally made us some matcha lattes, that really enhanced our night. The server had a great sense of humor and gave solid recommendations (I got the American dream, imma get it again, too!). Everything was highkey delicious. The ambiance is cool, but I wish more people came through. We didn't have a lot of people close by to sing with us, so I had to show the staff - and half of Rockville - my singing prowess (or lack their of) on the happy bday music. Not the Stevie, if you're wondering. For the bday dessert, we split the tempura cheesecake. It was serious work. Seriously. Not too sweet, but something about the crust being fried with the cheesecake filling just took it over the top. Maaan it was good. The sushi? The sushi?! Fairly priced, big portions, well styled, rocked my socks off with eel sauce. We shared as a table and really just had a ball. Between the service, humor, bday singing, delicious food, and extra attention to detail, this may be a "hole in the wall" fave for years to come. I suggest checking them out and diving head first into the sushi/dessert. Good times/good vibes. Oh and, Happy Bday, Kev!

Went with my usual tonkotsu and I would say it's still my favorite on their menu. Not the best ramen I've had but pretty good for the price.

Decent balance of ingredients in my ramen. I tried Child #1's soup and it was fine, though I will say whatever the mushrooms were (woodear, I think), they were fantastic, with a nice marinade and prepared so well. The rolls were fine. My sweet potato was clearly fresh-fried, so it was warm inside the rice, which was a bit surprising. On one hand, a bit crispier. On the other, hot sushi. Our waiter was attentive and the food came out relatively quickly. Prices were fair.
