Service was friendly and completely on point. You gotta love a restaurant when the moment you've drained your ice water, your server is immediately there with a refill. Taiko has a huge menu, pretty much catering to anything you might hanker. I noticed that in addition to traditional Japanese fare, there were Chinese and Thai dishes as well. For starters we went with the shumai, miso soup and harumaki. The shumai was very good, though I'm a little less certain about the vinegary dipping sauce that came with the shumai. The miso soup was good and we liked the finely diced tofu in it. Harumaki are crispy spring rolls, and we liked these too. We also ordered an eel roll. It had been broiled and with the sauce on it was very tasty. JP's entrée was the Pork Katsu bento box. The pork katsu was excellent and so were the California rolls that came with the box. The bento box also came with miso soup and a side salad. My entrée was the Beef Udon. Very attractively presented, it had a smoky flavor and was packed with beef along with bits of asparagus and zucchini. It was pretty good. We were pleasantly surprised at the end of our meal to receive complementary scoops of a delicious vanilla ice cream. Considering the excellent service, big menu and good food, I'm going with five stars.

While the people working were nice and checked in with us many times, the issue was with us receiving our orders. We had a larger party, and expected a longer wait for food, which was fine, but the food came out at different times. By the time the last person got their food, the first few people were already finished eating. For food, I ordered a spicy salmon roll and a salmon skin roll. The fish-to-rice ratio on these was good, pretty typical order. This isn't the best salmon skin roll I've had. The salmon skin wasn't crispy because they left some of the meat on, which could be seen in the roll, so it was hard to chew through at times. This is serviceable sushi, but doesn't sit high on my list.

I was in the mood for sushi so I ordered steamed dumplings and a couple of rolls I believe they were Alaskan roll and probably either a salmon, tuna, and or yellowtail. The server I wish I remember her name was so sweet and gave me some great recommendations of drinks to try. Because this was a couple of months ago I believe I can't remember the drinks I had. But I do remember the Hennessy and strawberry drink was my fav! I do believe I ordered something to go be it I can't really remember...lol. But I do know it was so hot outside and the air quality was trash because of the wildfires in Canada. They had it freezing cold in there and this is why I always have a hoodie in my car. I will be back...

We stopped here for a quick lunch on our way up to DC. My husband was craving Korean and the spot…read morehe found was located inside this restaurant. It was a bit confusing, but seems like it's a sushi restaurant mixed with an Asian cuisine one. There was plenty of seating inside. This is located in a mall so we were able to find parking in the packed parking lot. They had womens and mens restrooms in the space. The service was a bit awkward, but fine overall. My husband built his own bowl that was fine. The miso soup I got was alright. I wish I liked my scallop nigiri and salmon avocado roll more. Overall the food was ok. I agree with another comment that mentioned it felt very Americanized. They had a lot of TVs on for the World Cup which was cool. They also have a huge menu with a lot of options.

Dear reader, Kanji…read moreAYCE Sushi in Springfield offers, quite simply, one of the best sushi deals in the area. There is something deeply satisfying about being able to order whatever you fancy without feeling like every additional roll requires a minor financial consultation. Better still, the quality is actually very good, which is where many all-you-can-eat arrangements lose the plot. Here, the fish is fresh, the options are plentiful, and the whole experience feels properly worth it. This is absolutely a place to arrive hungry and leave very happy indeed. A strong showing for Springfield and an easy recommendation for any sushi-loving member of society.

Northern Virginia is anything but short on AYCE sushi spots! Umiya in Alexandria, Sushi Ohayo's…read moremany locs, and Kanji Izakaya in Arlington to name a few. Yet, Kanji Sushi in Springfield remains one I've been to more than 3 times in the 8 or so months I've been living in this area. At $30 per person, it's a pretty fair price considering it includes sushi, apps, and hibachi!!!! I love the Shrimp hibachi and the shumai dumplings. But my favorite sushi roll? It's gotta be the Snow Mountain Roll (pictured below$ without a doubt!!! It's got shrimp tempura and shredded crabstick -- two of my fav proteins in sushi!!! The inside is nice and there's a conveyor belt that's included in the AYCE. But if you go anytime after 5pm be prepared for a long wait time. This place is great and very popular.

As I was taking a walk I happened to pass by Yamazato Sushi and Spice and said why not. BTW, I LOVE sushi and can be a harsh critic. I started with an order of shumai (6 petite pieces) and knew the rest of my meal would be excellent. It was flavorful, sumptuous with just the right amount of crisp and softness. One of the things I always struggle with at a sushi restaurant is portion size. Mostly on the "too small" size but sometimes on the "too big" In this case it was borderline perfect and bordering on the larger piece. Legit 2-bite nigiri, with the rolls being cut for a mouthful, but not quite embarrassing. As per my usual I enjoyed an ebi, hamachi and unagi on the nigiri side and my roll was the Volcano. Yum, Yum, Yum and YUMMM! All good, all fresh, all nicely prepared. Washed it all down with an unfiltered cold saki and was completely content and satisfied. The ambience was open and inviting and the restaurant was mostly full with more people arriving (always a good sign). The service was friendly, efficient and helpful, so a big shoutout to Min. And a BIG thank you to Steve, the owner, who was gracious enough to spend some time with me and chat before I departed. Looking forward to returning the next time I make my way back to the DC area. Alexandria, I believe. Cheers, JimG

Stopped here for some sushi since we were in the area. The service was great and reminded me a lot…read moreof service in Japan. They were super kind and accommodating. However, I was a bit disappointed in the sushi. I thought it lacked flavor that I get at other places. I ordered the lady killer and it's probably my fault but I didn't realize it was cucumber on the outside. I was a bit disappointed when it arrived to my table. The vegas roll and the classic ship tempura were probably the best out of everything I tried. The pork katsu was okay, it actually had a bit of an oil smell to it. Not the best I've had. Overall, I think the food could use a bit of improvement but the service and the space itself was great.

Everyone we interacted with was friendly, attentive, and genuinely wanted us to have a great experience. The food was absolutely incredible--everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. The drinks were just as impressive, with a great selection and expertly made. It's not often you find a restaurant that delivers exceptional food, amazing drinks, and customer service that truly goes the extra mile. We left feeling well taken care of and will definitely be back. Highly recommend!

Eggs & Sushi is one of those hideouts and if you're not careful, might end up eating 7k calories before you leave. You'll only know this place exists if you live or work in the Lorton area where Eggs & Sushi stands firm. If not for Google Maps, you may drive on by without a thought. I stopped because their simple sign but just some quirky in a strange way caught my eye and it's in the middle of a warehouse street where you would not expect food places to be. Surprisingly, there are always little cafes in these kind of places that feed the immediate workers there. They are sometimes the hidden gems nobody will hear about unless you work in that area. This is one of them. Walking in, it feels like a small diner, yellow walls, lots of menu above the grill area displayed on multiple screens, properly lit dining area. They take orders at the end and at a kiosk as well. Window seats, couple of tables, and some bar seats also. Seems simple enough but this place is the ultimate trap for the hungry. Be careful! When you look up, you realize they have a vast menu and varied in the most fantastic way. You have your generic American style food, eggs, pancakes, french toast, sausage, sandwiches, coffee, smoothie, an all day breakfast menu. Then you keep walking around to look at the menu, you see sushi, rolls, poke bowls, ramen, some dons, etc. You might think, hmm, they might be overloaded on the menu. Wrong! They make fantastic sandwiches! Smaller not overpriced ramen but with lots of oomph flavor! These guys bring the umami and drip it like masters. The dons hit, the ramen hits, the sandwiches hit, and my all time favorite breakfast item, the elegantly simple French toast hits. They are serving hits here and only a few know about it. Service was adequate from their high school kid waiters. The owners at the grill are very friendly if you get a chance to interact with them. Just a very chill ambience. It's diner that makes me want to move to Lorton. If you find yourself here one day, be careful. The menu makes you want to try everything. I haven't touch everything yet so I'm definitely coming back to try more. I just hope all these reviews won't mean I can't find my cozy window seat in the future.
