Their bento boxes are one of the best deals in town, and they have the sweetest, kindest servers. Get the Las Vegas Roll, Dynamite Scallop Roll, and Crab Salad Roll. My kiddos love their teriyaki salmon. Their proximity to Sweet Frog makes this a favorite in our family.

I've been here before in person years ago and remember falling in love with the roll of torch and…read moreone day I just couldn't get my mind off of what I remembered it tasting like so I decided to have it door dashed to me. I got the roll of torch and salmon belly sashimi. Sushi is delicious and flavorful. Prices are kinda up there. The roll of torch is nearly $17. For the roll of torch specifically, i'm not sure if they still "torch" the roll but it did not taste torched nor look like their menu photos.

I love that they still serve salad and miso soup with your order. I got the combo roll lunch special and it was definite worth it in my opinion. We did get the wrong order for one of the rolls (originally wanted the spicy scallop) but they made it for us after we let them know. The spicy scallop is to die for. Definitely coming back for that

High quality sushi falls into two tiers: there's the Morimoto/Nobu omakase experiences and then…read morethere's the high quality neighborhood joints with regulars and Takumi and perhaps Yume Sushi falls into the latter in the Falls Church area. If I were to compare them with clothing brands, the top tier restaurants would be akin to Hermès: impeccable, yes, but you're refinancing your apartment just to sit at the counter. Takumi is Ted Baker: genuinely refined, quietly stylish, and doesn't require a second mortgage to appreciate. The fish is flown in fresh daily. There is no cream cheese within a 50-foot radius of this kitchen. No yum yum sauce. No roll named after a questionable life decision. Just pristine fish doing pristine fish things. The menu is tight -- bento boxes, focused apps, nothing that needs a paragraph of explanation. The fried oysters and squid tentacles are mandatory. Non-negotiable. Do not test me on this. Then the subtle flex begins: yuzu, truffle, shiso placed with quiet confidence, mango puree that sounds wrong and tastes right, an Old Bay finish that would make Maryland weep with pride, and a Kalamata olive that has absolutely zero business being this good on a sushi menu -- and yet. This is a kitchen that knows exactly what it's doing and doesn't need your validation. For top tier sushi in Falls Church, go with Takumi if you skew towards traditional, go to Yume if you prefer modern more creative options.

But the fish quality is great, so tradeoffs.

The fish was fresh and the rolls were good; however, I wasn't a huge fan of the spicy sauce that…read morethey used. I prefer when the fish is marinated in the sauce rather than it being placed on top. The rolls were still good, but just didn't match my personal preference. My boyfriend really enjoyed the spice used on the tuna roll. I like that they use Roe on their California rolls. Our waitress was very nice and attentive. The restaurant was quiet and played great covers. I'm looking forward to trying Sushi-Zen again. Next time, I'll probably get something that doesn't have the spicy sauce.

We were seated right away in one of the upstairs honeycomb booths for two, which honestly made the whole visit feel unique and memorable. The interior is super modern, clean, and thoughtfully designed, and the atmosphere felt very similar to the Kyuramen location in Orlando, FL. The ramen gets the job done, but the broth lacked a little depth and richness, even after adding the table seasonings. At nearly $18 a bowl, I expected a bit more flavor-wise. The pork belly was definitely the standout though, tender. Also appreciated the free 2-hour parking garage next door (they will validate it) which made visiting really convenient and fast.

We got the crunchy rice with sour pork (naem khao thadaeu), pork shoulder (ping), fried catfish (patod), chicken pad thai (kua mee), and warm coconut milky dessert (bua loy). All the dishes were delicious but a bit more salty than Thai. Feels like a lot of fish sauces in all the dishes. The crunchy rice came with lettuce but ours were not the best lettuce. The fried catfish were nicely fried with a perfect coating. Definitely a dish to get. The pork shoulder is another dish to get. Nicely seasoned with sticky rice. Their version of pad thai is uniquely different than Thai. A bit more sweet but the lime makes it better. Wife wanted to try bua loy dessert. It is a warm sweet dessert that balanced out all the salty flavors of the dishes. Something to try as well. Flavor are still the same. The dishes we order were too much for 2 of us.

We said heck yeahhhh, so the decision was made AMBIANCE: Big space, pretty empty as we were one of the last people to eat before they closed! They were very accommodating-- letting us know their kitchen closed at 10:30 PM and the restaurant closed at 11 PM. When we arrived, it was 945, so we weren't looking to play around. We knew what we were gonna get. Onward we went SERVICE: My girl Arieles (PRETTY sure that's what her name was) was our server! She was so sweet and got us our stuff promptly. We knew we were coming in late so we weren't gonna waste time, but she was joyful to serve us regardless and I appreciate that. So many times people are FED UP, and it shows, to be at the end of their shift (and I get it), so it was nice to have someone of good demeanor to host us! FOOD: We ordered brisket, spicy pork belly, spicy chicken, and spicy bulgogi. First time trying the spicy Bulgogi for fear that it was gonna be TOO spicy and it was not at all! To reference -- I thought the kimchi was a bit spicier than the bulgogi! So try it, flavor is amazing! Can't wait to come again. I hadn't gone to KBBQ in a long while!
