The Hottest New Restaurants Around D.C., January 2025

"An intimate omakase experience awaits high above 14th Street NW. The new upper-level tasting room comes from chef Johnny Yi, a 16-year sushi vet who runs Takara 14 below. The third floor is now home to Raw Omakase DC, an 8-seat counter with just two reservation times each evening. Yi works with imported delicacies from Tokyo’s famed Toyosu Market to create a symphony of seafood courses. The first seating consists of 15 courses for $125; the second seating is a little longer, featuring 18 courses for $150. Diners can opt in for curated wine and sake pairings." - Tierney Plumb, Emily Venezky
