Every dish here was gorgeous. The tekka chirashi was my favorite -- lean, medium fatty, fatty, and tartar tuna all in one bowl. The takuji chirashi and the 10-piece omakase sashimi platter were also incredibly fresh and high quality. And don't even get me started on the basque cheesecake - still thinking about that caramelized top and sweet, velvety center. I love that they're a matcha and chirashi cafe by day and an omakase spot by night. The interior is incredibly intimate, with only two tables for people eating chirashi bowls, and relatively small bar seating for people doing omakase. The staff were incredibly attentive and friendly, giving us amazing service. read more

Two experiences. 1st experience was pretty good. Sushi a la carte at the restaurant. Portions are small, service is pretty mediocre but the quality is high. Expect to pay 100+ per person, but expect to sit behind a curtain in teeny tiny tables. 2nd experience was honestly pretty bad. 2 people in our party got food poisoning from the lunch bowls. They rice was hard, cold and the fish was not fresh. What's a little odd - the restaurant expects you to bus your own water, dish and napkins after paying 60 for a lunch bowl in a deserted 2nd floor space. Won't be back. Food poisoning aside, terrible value. Mediocre to bad service and meh-ambiance. read more

Overall, it's a good spot but I wouldn't say it's anything unique or amazing for omakase. I enjoyed some pieces, my favourite being the shark fin piece, and some pieces felt pretty normal/basic. They offered us a second piece of uni, but didn't really disclose it was an additional $20, which I was a little like c'mon, but the uni was still good. This omakase spot is more of a one and done type of spot for me, but still was an enjoyable time! read more

This review is for the daytime cafe menu. It took me a few tries to figure this place out. I've probably been to the cafe four times now and it is finally a five star for me now. First of all, you can now sit upstairs to eat your food. This is key for me, as it isn't cheap, and being able to have a place to properly enjoy your food is important. I believe there are also a few small tables in the alley for outdoor dining. The first time I had the limited premium shaken matcha I was very disappointed. It is served sweetened by default, which is not usual for premium matcha. If the matcha is good, I want to taste the flavor profile of the matcha, not sugar. It didn't even cross my mind that a premium matcha drink would be sweetened, so I didn't think to ask for unsweetened -- my fault. I've since had it unsweetened and it is good, not the best I've ever had, but very good for DC. I had a harvest latte here that was also exceptional. The drinks are top notch. The charashi here are just as beautiful in person (more!) than they are on socials. More importantly, they are phenomenal. The fish and rice were perfect in a recent bowl I tried. I will definitely be back and think it's (almost) worth the price point. The rotating desserts are also very much worth the calories. I look forward to trying more seasonal desserts as they release them. In a world full of overdone restaurants, I appreciate the simplicity of this cafe which focuses solely on quality. read more

We didn't have any issues getting a reservation and came to celebrate our anniversary. While we inputted this into our reservation, there wasn't anything out of the ordinary of a normal reservation such as a card or a mention (which was fine but maybe a note if you're looking to celebrate other special occasions here). This was in DC so there was some street parking but always recommend allowing yourself some time to park if driving. Tucked away, once you go inside, there is a doorbell. They come down to escorted you upstairs. It's a nice space upstairs and pretty quiet, easy to talk and have conversation. The Omakase was a great experience and we loved everything we had. We also tried an uni tasting for an extra $100. Everything was great. While we didn't mind, it would have been nice to know the cost of the additional uni tasting and even had to ask for specifics on some of the sake prices. Service was friendly but the flow and timing could use some improvement. Delicious otherwise and worth a visit. The chef was great and was talkative as well with the guests. read more

I was walking to a nearby coffee shop and noticed the long line in the alley nearby. I returned and decided to let my curiosity get thr best of me! I showed up right before closing and was greeted with kindness. I ordered through the kiosk and in person. Yes, I made two separate orders after standing there waiting for the first order. I ended up walking away with a salmon hand roll, matcha butter mochi, and a seasonal drink. Everything was really tasty and Im so glad that I decided to check this spot out! Now, my experience is with the Two Nine Cafe located downstairs from the Two Nine Omakase restaurant upstairs. I love sushi and will come back to try out the omakase experience but the cafe spot was a nice introduction! This is an alley in Georgetown. Parking will be crazy but not impossible in the area. Seating outside the cafe is non existent outside of a couple of stools. It's a great meeting point while exploring the area, honestly! read more

This review is for the Take-Out Chirashi Cafe during the day. This is a big take-out window hidden in an alley of Georgetown. Love coming here because everything is always delicious and fresh! Also the staff is super friendly. One of my favorite things is Futomaki (thick roll with Bluefin Tuna, King Salmon, Japanese White Fish, Shiso, fresh scallions, tamago, pickles, shittake, kampyo, seasonal produce, and wasabi). You can have it sliced or un-cut. Can't go wrong with any of the chirashi bowls. I love how much pickled veggies they put and also the sushi rice is slightly flavored!! You can definitely share the Tokujo and Kaisen with one other person! They always look so beautiful and colorful. The Nigiri Set or Mini Bara Chirashi is perfect for solo eaters and good bang for your buck. I've also enjoyed their coffee, teas, and other drinks! The pastries are also to die for. My favorite is the Okonomi-Pan!!! I also really loved the Ichigo Choux and Butter Mochi. read more

I've only gotten takeout for their lunch deals, and the fish quality is great. It is pricey for what I would typically spend for lunch, but you are paying for the quality. The staff are great as well. It was pouring rain one day, and the staff let me wait inside for my food (the inside is closed during lunch hours). Even when ordering at the counter, I usually don't have to wait too long. read more

I've been curious about this place for a long time and I'm glad I gave it a try! Ordering at the window is quick, and I got the food within 15-20 minutes - it's all made to order. I got the unadon with extra veggies, and it was delicious. I love that they give you nori sheets to make little rolls with too. I would definitely order this again: perfectly cooked eel, delicious rice, and wasabi that really punches you in the face. The Basque cheesecake was a 2/10 for me: badly overbaked, unpleasant texture, little to no vanilla flavor. This should not have been served in its state, as someone who loves to make Basque cheesecake (the draw of it is the custardy texture with the burnt top: it should never, never be dry). The matcha latte was wonderful but definitely overpriced at $10, premium matcha or no. Still, I enjoyed it a lot - perfect sweetness level - and I'm glad I tried it! The cup it comes in is adorable too. I ate upstairs and love the little sunny counter space. Overall, very impressed with the eel and latte and very disappointed by the cheesecake, but I'll give them a second chance on desserts in case they were having an off day (but I maintain that it shouldn't have been served to guests). I'd be curious to try their hand rolls next time, or their chirashi bowl! read more

This is a review for their daytime cafe. I got their trio of hand-rolls and an iced matcha latte. I love their coffee cups and I actually have reused it for a while! Their matcha is top notch.

Two Nine is an omakase restaurant at night and a cafe during the day! I saw their beautiful chirashi on their lunch menu here on Yelp. I decided it was a must-try during my trip to DC. We got to the restaurant around when they opened and there were already a few people waiting for their order and people in line. They had a little takeout style window in the alleyway. I ordered the Bara and also a couple of hand rolls. We walked with our food to the Georgetown harbor to enjoy the food with a view. The Bara was delicious! I love seeing the colorful pieces the fish and the pickled vegetables. The chirashi and the three hand rolls we ordered were a good lunch portion for two. read more

My friend and I have been dying to try this place out after seeing their turtle shaped fruit filled pastry puffs and limited authentic matcha menu on Instagram- but after setting out on a rainy Saturday morning at opening to ensure we could have our top choices, there were no pastries available other than a premade mochi. Their setup is advertised as a cafe in the morning and a omakase in the evening, but the actual operation is very confusing. They aren't clear about when/what pastries are available and it was really disappointing to not have more treat choices. After asking the one worker, he wasn't sure either. We asked to sit inside because of the rain and were sat upstairs in the omakase space with no music and a flickering light. It was very odd. The matcha was delicious though and I hope to one day figure out when those turtles are there! read more

What can I say ... I pay for food + experiences... I pay, a lot. And you get what you pay for at the sleek counter of Two Nine's Omakase!!! Hawaii born head Chef puts charm and technique into the prefix experience that can be paired with a sake flight (or buy the bottle options) which of course we had to do. Opening bites of pickle salads and cuddle fish sashimi are inventively lightly sauce with familiar Japanese flavors of yuzu and ponzo. Then the sashimi rolls out. Amazingly fresh cuts of salmon, tuna, and special fish flown in fresh come out back to back. Like I said, I'm a huge fan of this style of cuisine and Two Nine is putting out some of the best quality in DC. The blow tour h comes out for some flayer and Kampei's fly as the sake flows. It's easy to make friends with your neighbors at the bar and the light banter from the wait staff and Chef make the space feel warm and welcoming. Post fish palate bomb was the jerkeied tuna veins which are hard to explain but so unique and delicious I'd eat a whole bowl of these!!!! At this point they could offer to sell me all the Tea in China and I'd scream TAKE MY MONEY!!! So if course the optional A5 Wagyu co.es out and I'm all in!!. Seared and served sashimi style with an adorable spritz bottle of a soy salt solution to taste. Do I even need to describe why A5 is so expensive??? No. If you know, you know. At this point we are loud, full and happy. Do you want to b loud, full and happy? Make your reservations now. You might even catch me at the end of the bar. Let's be friends! read more

Yesss. It is my honor to be the first reviewer. I've been following them since the pandemic at their Mess Hall days and then at Grace Street. I'm so excited that their custom built brick and mortar is HERE. The building is beautiful, hidden in an alley with custom made art pieces, they really thought about everything -so detailed. Online ordering is easy for their sushi takeout. Parking is a bit tricky but I promise it's worth the trip. Soft launch this week with their sushi bowls and some nigiri. Next week they start serving desserts and drinks with takeout. Their sushi bowls are fresh, beautiful, meticulous, and delicious as always. The Tokujo is one of my favorites... Everything from raw scallops to Japanese uni to a variety of fishes, pickled bits, mushrooms... The whole box is a gem full of bursts of varied flavor. They are not playing around. I'm excited for our omakase reservations in a few weeks. read more

stopped in recently to try the newish two nine omakase (haven't done the takeout or cafe) overall a nice experience and meal. fish quality was solid. uni quality was great. the experience is 4 or so otsumami, a plate of sashimi, followed by 18 or so nigiri/maki, tamago and dessert. the small plates were all interesting/good - seasonal ingredients, house made sauces, variety of textures and a nice way to begin the meal. the sashimi was good quality, loved 2/3 of the fish served. The nigiri overall was ok - biggest critiques are the shari which was served colder/room temp, didn't have much flavor and was on the drier side. and the seasoning/balance - many pieces include finishing salt, sauce, or some other component (fermented daikon, ume paste, etc.), and I found the balance of flavors to be off for a number of courses which ended up as a distraction from the fish being served. they did end with four quality selections of hokkaido uni, all of which were delicious but the two best (premium unfiltered murasaki and bafun) were very good. the pacing of the meal is good, the drink menu isn't extensive and leans primarily toward sake (sake pairing available). the two chefs were very kind/friendly as was the server. space is beautiful read more

*review for the daytime cafe* Love the concept of their daytime cafe with chirashi bentos but in terms of value and experience I was a little disappointed! First of all, I was surprised to find that they operate takeout only for the daytime hours - this is kind of my bad since they do say that on their Instagram, but I didn't see any mention of it anywhere else. The bentos are very aesthetic and tasted good, but considering the price I was expecting to be wowed either by the taste or the quality of the fish, and they didn't quite deliver on either of those fronts. Maybe the prices would make more sense for a sit-down restaurant experience but for just takeout I found them to be pretty high compared to different restaurants with similar offerings. We also got the mugicha barley tea for $7, which is basically the same price as a boba with toppings at most boba shops, only here it was just tea. They also use the same lids that boba shops use that are meant to be used with straws, only they don't offer straws. Because the lids don't have the little air vent hole, you kind of have to waterfall the tea to be able to drink it which is definitely not optimal, so I'd suggest they either look into different lids or start stocking straws. I know they are relatively new so maybe they just have a few kinks to sort out. I definitely love the concept so I hope they'll improve over time! read more

I can't imagine this place will stay in business. It is extremely overpriced for okay sushi. There are so many other places you can get amazing sushi for a fraction of the price of this restaurant. So no, I do not recommend. Also tried their matcha dessert with brown sugar and it was mid at best. read more

The review is mainly for the 29_cafe + Sunday morning beverage specials. I'd like to say the overall dining experience is quite agreeable, but the waiting time is way longer than I'd be okay for food. We were a party of 6, and I suggested to travel all the way from Springfield to this place, because I've heard the fish was amazing and the sweet treats are adorable, so I felt bad having all my friends to wait for over 1 hour to get food and leave asap since we had tickets for a museum later on the afternoon. Make sure if you want to try this place, either book the omakase or have at least couple of hours in between your next destination. I'm no fish monger, but I do enjoy fish (pescatarian here) and their offerings are spectacular! The chirashi bowl was truly amazing, every single bite of the fish was so delicious and fresh. I must mention the uni is definitely a game changer, it was pleasant and melts in your mouth, the taste was beyond any other (not bitter nor "briny". The toro was definitely my favorite of them all! These are decent size chirashi bowl, you might end up stuffed if you plan to get one of the desserts. I would love to come back and try their omakase when the opportunity presents! Since we came for the Sunday Special Cafe "find_cafe" menu, we tried some of the speciality beverages, the kabocha spiced latte and the harvest latte. Harvest latte is a barely and roasted corn drink, is slightly sweet and nutty, since we added a shot of espresso, it was bolder than I expected it to be. I'm a sucker for anything pumpkin, I must say the kabocha spiced latte is the most pumpkin-ie pumpkin spice drink I've ever had in my 6 years living in the States, the kabocha is cooked and pureed to perfection, it's really sweet and rich and warm, so good and addictive, I inhaled my drink once I got it, it feels unfair that the drinks only came in a small size (imagine the tall size at a Starbucks), even if I don't feel like having any fish or curry here, I would totally run for this drink! My only complaint is that when I got it, it was moreso room temperature than warm, but maybe it should be drank that way? I'm not sure. We shared the Espresso Choux, a very cute patisserie offering, I'd liked all the elements, although it could've been great with some sort of crunchy elements like toasted hazelnuts or slivered toasted almonds. The whipped ganache had the right amount of powder and sugar, I would have added more custard to my choux, the espresso is very bright and almost citrusy which I was very happy about! My friends got the fresh fruit sando, they were pretty happy with the cream, light and yet creamy like clouds! I would definitely plan accordingly to come back here! read more

10/10, a wonderfully curated and thoughtful experience and amazing service! We also had an early reservation so had the whole restaurant to ourselves which gave a nice ambiance.

I've been to Two Nine a few times now and I am in love! I usually get a hand roll but tried the Kaisen and I'm melting! Definitely plan to do omakase with them. Honestly been disappointed with omakase in the DMV area and planned to stop going but I'll make an exception for 29. The rice was PERFECT! Soft with the right amount of vinegar. And it's been consistent. Love their iced shaken matcha as well but wasn't able to get any today due to shortage. I'm a snob when it comes to matcha so when I say it's good, it's GOOD! lol The cream puff and matcha mochi are also a must try! Thank you Amy! read more

Unfortunately a very poor experience here. We were told that food was going to take 45 mins because they were running behind, which made my friend and I question whether we should eat here. Seeing our hesitation, the person at the front said it would actually be 30 mins instead, which was fine with us because my friend and I had plans to catch up anyway. He could not have been more misleading. We went upstairs to the seating area which was packed with people who were all waiting for food. We got there 30 mins after opening and the fact that no one had their food yet should've been our sign to get a refund and leave. We sat there for an hour and a half before we got our food, and we were one of the first people to get our food despite getting there later than a lot of the other customers. The right thing to do would've been to offer everyone something to tie them over until the food was ready, but there was radio silence coming from downstairs -- not even apology. I was hoping that the food would make up for it but it didn't. The rice was very cold and while it was pretty, the flavor was lacking. For the price point and wait time, you're better off going somewhere else. read more

Went to 29Omakase for my birthday dinner, and it was an incredible experience! My girlfriend treated me to an amazing twenty-course meal prepared and served by Chef Zach Ramos. Every dish was delicious--I didn't leave a single bite behind. The restaurant itself was beautiful, with a clean and intimate atmosphere that made the whole evening feel special. Chef Zach even gave me the chance to try high-grade uni topped with caviar for the first time, which was unforgettable. Overall, everything was top-notch, and I'm already looking forward to going back! read more

10/10 - Highly recommend! As someone who's been a loyal Nobu fan worldwide and a dedicated Sushi Nakazawa regular for the past three years, I was looking for something new to celebrate a birthday. I stumbled upon Two Nine through Google and was intrigued by the soft launch reviews from the elite community -- and let me tell you, they did not disappoint. While I typically benchmark high-end omakase experiences in the DC area against Nakazawa, Two Nine defies comparison. It's in a league of its own -- unique (fish liver etc), refined, and absolutely delicious. From the chef to the staff, the service to the food -- everything was flawless. Would I go again? Without a doubt. You leave full, satisfied, and genuinely impressed. * I'd usually take photos, but this was one of those rare experiences I wanted to fully immerse myself in. Truthfully, no picture would do it justice -- you'll just have to taste it for yourself. read more

Rating: (4/5) We tried two different kinds of chirashi here--don't remember the exact names, but one came with assorted slices of fish, and the other had uni and scallop in addition to the fish. The overall quality was solid: the fish was fresh and flavorful. That said, I was a little disappointed with the uni. It was mushier than I expected, and when you're paying this much for a takeout chirashi, the quality should really be on point--especially for something like uni. I also felt the portion size didn't quite match the price. Not a dealbreaker, but something to keep in mind. Now, the matcha--wow. Hands down the best I've had in the DMV. Smooth, earthy, and no frills. I'm a firm believer that high-quality matcha should be enjoyed on its own--no lattes, syrups, or gimmicks. Just pure matcha. It makes total sense that they only serve a limited number each day. Is it worth checking out? 100%. Would it be one of my go-to spots? Probably not, given the price point. But if you're a matcha lover or looking to treat yourself to quality fish, definitely give it a try. read more

This review is for 29cafe. It's more of a 3.5 than a 4 in my opinion. I ordered an iced matcha, salmon chirashi, and bara chirashi. I wanted to sit inside and the guy at the front was nice enough to bring the food up to me! The matcha was very average. I liked how strong the matcha flavor was and I understand that high-quality matcha powder is difficult to come by these days, but $11 is kind of steep. The presentation of the chirashi was beautiful. I appreciated the variety of vegetables, high-quality fish, and the side of nori these came with. The bara ended up being a mixture of smaller bits of salmon, tuna, and yellowtail. It was a deliciously balanced bowl, but again, I felt like the prices were a tad bit steep for what it was. I'm glad I tried it, but I don't think I'm inclined to go again. It was just a tad too expensive for what it was and didn't particularly stand out to me against the other sushi establishments in the area. read more

Dined here for our wedding anniversary. We arrived a little early but were promptly seated and Chef Zack greeted us and made small talk while we awaited the arrival of the our 530pm seating. Everything was so fresh and so good; the sashimi, the nigiri, the soup, the kaiseki plates.. and the chef did a great job of educating us about the dishes while remaining conversational with everyone. The fact that he could prepare all this excellent food, converse with all of his customers, and not be overbearing or awkward is quite the skill. Huge kudos to his server and somm as well. Everything was well-choreographed and we left the restaurant absolutely stuffed but satisfied. Given that the menu changes monthly, we will absolutely be back and recommend this place to all of our friends. read more

20/10 in terms of food, service, and atmosphere. I've been to cafe29 on 3 different occasions and each time I've tried something new, it has just gotten better and better! As someone who loves making matcha at home, this is the absolute best "outside matcha" you can get. It is smooth, not too sweet, and vegetal-just as matcha should be. The Bara bowl was so fresh and very filling, the barbecued eel was my favorite part. I highly recommend and have personally put several people onto this cafe! read more

Dining here was nothing short of an extraordinary experience--a true culinary journey rather than just a meal. From the moment we sat down, it was clear we were in for something special. Head Chef Zach and his team have created an amazing experience and space to feel at home! If you are not booking this you are missing out! Each course was beautifully presented and meticulously prepared, starting with the delicate appetizer of marinated mushrooms, spinach, and a sweet carrot blossom--light and refreshing, with balanced umami and earthiness. Then came a delightful surprise: a tiny whole crab, gorgeously plated and packed with flavor. It was both playful and refined, a testament to the chef's creativity and attention to detail. The craftsmanship continued with a stunning assortment of sashimi, where each cut was expertly handled before our eyes. Watching the chef slice the fish with such precision and care was mesmerizing. The sashimi was incredibly fresh, with melt-in-your-mouth textures and subtle flavor nuances, especially when paired with the house-made wasabi and crisp cucumber. The sushi courses elevated the meal further--each piece was a miniature masterpiece. From buttery white fish to rich, deep-red tuna, and an elegantly garnished mackerel, every bite was a perfect harmony of rice, seasoning, and seafood. The experience felt like a respectful homage to traditional Japanese omakase, while still incorporating modern elegance. Even the dessert--an exquisitely plated matcha treat topped with translucent white bean garnish--was a work of art. Delicate, not overly sweet, and rich in flavor, it provided a serene end to an outstanding lineup. What tied the entire experience together was the impeccable service. The staff was attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what they do. They orchestrated the entire evening with grace and warmth, making us feel truly welcomed and cared for. The downstairs "walk-up" window looks just as inviting. It will be great to walk up someday and grab a to-go selection in the future. This wasn't just a meal--it was an immersive celebration of Japanese culinary artistry. Every dish told a story, and every moment felt intentional. A heartfelt thank you to the chefs and team for creating a memorable dining experience that we'll be talking about for a long time. read more

I had one of the worst dining experiences I can remember at Two Nine on September 12, 2025. We had an 8:30 PM reservation for the à la carte table, and from the very beginning things went downhill. First, while waiting to be seated, we saw a kitchen staff member picking his nose over the counter. That was an immediate red flag for cleanliness and professionalism. Then, instead of being seated promptly, we were left standing near the entrance by stacked red crates for 10 to 15 minutes while our server, Forrest, busied himself with everything except preparing our table. He poured wine for other guests, seated groups that came in after us, and collected checks, but never acknowledged us or made us feel welcome. When we finally said we were leaving, Forrest dismissively claimed he was "actively cleaning the table," even though we had just watched him do anything but. His attitude made us feel inferior, as though we were not worth his time because we were at the à la carte table rather than omakase. His tone and behavior suggested that we did not fit the type of guest he wanted to serve, whether because of assumptions about tipping or wealth, but the disrespect was obvious. My girlfriend left feeling embarrassed, and what was supposed to be a fun night was ruined. I had been genuinely excited to try Two Nine and was even considering it for a private work event, but now I would not recommend this place to anyone. The way we were treated was unacceptable. Restaurants live or die by hospitality, and Two Nine completely failed at even the basics: cleanliness, professionalism, and making guests feel welcome. read more

Delicious food. Served with great care and intention. Beautifully presented, in a warm and comfortable setting. Truly a wonderful night. Upon arrival, we were ushered to some cozy seats in the "waiting room" to enjoy the view and start settling in. The chefs prepared all of the food at the bar, pacing the meal and giving time to enjoy and appreciate every course. Amuse-bouche - refreshing. Appetizer course - delightful treasures. Sashimi course - tender, balanced, great. Nigiri - one by one, just great flavors. Grouper in a snapper broth - rich, yet light, fantastic. Winding down with a sweet tamagoyaki and a cream puff - perfect. We loved the sake pairing. Each course and its pour really heightened one another. Usually, when my partner and I go out, we huddle and lock into conversation, intensely focused as food comes and goes. At Two Nine, we were swept into the relaxing, sublime current of the experience created by the staff. It was a different type of date in the best way. I can't recommend it enough. read more
