    Cute logo

    The restaurant has a very cute aesthetic once walking in. As for food, the miso soup and salad were amazing and especially the ginger dressing for the salad. One of the best ginger dressings I've ever had. The crab rangoons were great and felt surprisingly healthy even though they were fried. The main stars being the sushi. All of it was fresh and the flavors were complementary. Service was very kind and attentive. Definitely plan on coming back! There's also a parking garage right by here so parking isn't an issue.

    I was excited to try this new place because I was really sad to see Koi Koi sushi and roll go so quickly. I had seen the renovation and it looked really great. I went 30 minutes before close to check it out and had time to talk to the daughter of the family who owns it. It's super modern but had lots of fresh flowers, cool music, and nice lighting. I got take out since it was NBA playoffs night. Great food, innovative packaging, I noticed several things done in the food that showed great care. There is this very neat thing in my udon soup that was a large piece of noodle that looks like it was hand braided, and I much appreciated the wasabi for my sushi being put in a little parchment thing so it doesn't get all over sushi! The sweet potato in my veggie tempura was also cut super cute in a rectangle but with rounded edges. My only complaint is probably price but I bet everything like rent and supplies for the restaurant industry are also going up these days. I told them I wanted to add to the Yelp so people could try it more easily. There is a phone and website on one of the menu pics I took. I just feel strongly that I want to see this place be welcomed by the community! I'm a marketing major so I wanted to do my best to put up a really solid review.

    I just tried this place for the first time and I'm so glad that I did!

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 convenience is not the only reason we go. Tonight was probably our 20th visit... Their sushi is, without exception, always the best, and the freshest we have ever had in the area! Additionally, this is a locally owned and operated business that really cares about the community. How many Arlington restaurants have an AFAC donation box in their vestibule? Their connection to Arlington amplifies their value as a local business with delicious food. Among our favorites are the scallop sushi -- and even the simplest thing, their miso soup, is fabulous! Great for catering too! (We get a 150-piece platter for our holiday party every year!)

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.

The service here is excellent. We were seated and given menus and water immediately, and the staff was attentive and friendly throughout our meal. They even have a call button at the table which was convenient. The interior is incredibly cute and interactive - they have wooden ornaments you can write on and "surprise bowls" where you can win free drinks or desserts. For the food, the appetizer platter is a great deal for the price and offers a nice variety. The popcorn chicken had a great Sichuan kick that I really enjoyed but wasn't overly spicy. I was really excited for the beef ramen, but it was a massive letdown. The beef itself was super tough and lacked flavor. While the broth was well balanced and clean, there simply wasn't enough of it - even though I asked to skip the corn. It feels like this place focuses a lot of energy on the interior decor, promos, and aesthetics, while the quality of the main entrees hasn't quite caught up. Because the core dish missed the mark, I don't think I'd come back.

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. My only complaint was the restaurant smelled like smoke when we walked in. Not the kind where there was a fire in the kitchen but more like someone smoking in the kitchen?

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!
