"Raku turns out sushi of all types, whether that means simple and traditional bites of tuna over rice or adventurous combinations topped with with jalapeno peppers or kimchi. And the menu goes well beyond, with pumpkin ginger soup and red curry noodles making solid alternatives for anyone who prefers vegetarian or non-fish options. The D.C. location (Cathedral Heights) is open as well." - Travis Mitchell

We were in town for the weekend. We decided to try this restaurant. Good atmosphere but very busy. Service was great and the food was excellent, very fresh. Highly recommend.

Stopped in for a quick lunch. This place is a great upscale option for an affordable lunch. I got Udon Ramen w Curry Chicken that was really good. My friend got sushi which looked delicious and was reasonably priced. Seating on a Monday at noon was plentiful. We were in and out in 45 minutes. Definitely a good lunch option.

Branzino/Bronzino fish's is pretty fresh sand tasted well with the lemon sauce. Seared fatty tuna has a good smooth texture with smokey smell. Mongo tango mocktail is good but a bit too sweet. Salmon in maki didn't look too fresh bust tasted alright. You can't see the sushi chef even when sitting at the sushi bar because the counter has a tall backboard blocking your view.

We went in for an early dinner. They said a 20-30min wait, but we got a text in about 10min. It was very busy. The table was small but we made it work. We ordered dumplings and they came out pretty fast, but we're hot and fresh. Sorry, for the lack of photos but the food was fresh and tasty so I sorta forgot to get photos. Our server was polite and friendly. If you are in the area it's worth a visit.

I ordered a deluxe bento to try their different variety of foods. Sashimi and steak were exquisite. Shrimp tempura was fresh and crispy. Salad came with seaweed salad which added more flavor and went well with their house dressing. Tempura sauce wasnt good as other food. It was too blend so as their california roll. Nigiri was so so because the sushi rice was too warm for the raw fish. It affected the freshness and the texture. Their strawberry blossom soda was amazing. I will definitely go back to try their chirashi.

We come to this restaurant with my husband at least 2-3 times a month and we love it. The food never disappoints. We usually have their sushi, steak, Tokyo dashi soups and appetizers. We love it!

The food is amazing, everything tasted great, even the soup. You have to get dessert when you're there. The cups of water they leave sitting out until customers show up was pretty weird and the sushi arrived warmer than expected. But overall great place
