The Best New Restaurants in D.C., July 2025 | Eater DC

"A parade of sashimi, Japanese plates, and ever-elusive pufferfish now have a home in the depths of Wisconsin Avenue NW. After closing downtown Sushi Gakyu earlier this year, sushi chef Yoshi Ota moved on to Georgetown with the May opening of Sushi Gaku. Traditional nigiri, maki, and an omakase tasting featuring fermented ancient-style sushi round out the new menu. Dinner is served from 5 to 10 p.m. every night except Tuesdays. A zen patio out back is framed in stone and greenery." - Eater Staff
