Akeno Sushi Bar and Thai at Capitol Hill

Restaurant · Capitol Hill

"Akeno Sushi Bar and Thai is the kind of place you take your friends to on a Friday night, where everyone can grab a round of drinks from the restaurant’s tiki bar-esque cocktail menu while contemplating the chances of a federal shutdown. Again. But it’s not until you try the sushi, that you’ll really start paying attention to this Capitol Hill spot. The restaurant's sushi specials—like the Akeno roll, made with a decadent and crispy soft-shell crab tempura—can make any conversation, even the ones about government antics, appealing. " - omnia saed, tristiana hinton
