Takumi

This Sushi spot is simply amazing!!!!! It was my first experience here and I enjoyed every second. Come here for premium sushi. Tons of fish options and Sake Options. 5 stars!!!

Jay has been a friend of mine since he first opened up. I was a client from day 1. His fish is the most fresh, exotic yet simple. His presentation is so beautiful “you want to look rather than eat it.” If you want a taste of Tokyo in an unassuming yet upscale restaurant, Takumi is your next destination. Japanese oysters, Uni from California..you name it, Jay gets it. It’s not the fish so much as it is the rice. True connoisseurs know it when they see it. His second in command is also an amazing Chef. He has been in Arlington and trained in DC. Bon Appetite.

Review for Takumi Sushi: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely outstanding experience at Takumi Sushi! Every dish was fresh and bursting with flavors, truly a testament to their commitment to quality. An unexpected surprise was their restroom – it ranks among the cleanest I've ever seen. It's clear that they take pride in every facet of their establishment. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an impeccable dining experience!

Terrific quality, some unusual and tasty preparations I've not seen elsewhere. Some of the best I've had in the entire area. Intimate and peaceful space, a place at which I'd like to be a regular. We sat at the sushi bar and ordered individual pieces, leaning toward specials on the blackboard and what the chef suggested (e.g., Japanese Red Snapper, Hamachi belly). The stars of the evening, IMHO were the house-smoked mackeral (the smoke went really well), seared scallop (wonderfully delicate texture of the fish, a creative slicing/presentation technique, and a new dimension to the flavor from the sear), and the seared Oh Toro (fatty tuna, scored and seared giving it an absurdly meaty taste -- and very different from the unseared Oh Toro we had to compare). Definitely looking forward to going back. Update 8 years later, 2024: Still outstanding, and the "Calamari Pasta" blew me away: cooked tentacles topped with a quail yolk, with uni underneath and -- surprise! -- a truffle. I can't recommend this dish enough.

This small unassuming shop has the best Sushi I have ever had stateside. It was more like a dream than a dining experience. If you didn't know exactly where this shop was/is you would never know the wonder contained within. Even knowing where it was from a friend and Google maps I walked past the entrance twice. But sandwiched between a Thai food joint and a vape shop is this portal to the land of exquisite sushi. It can only be described as the most pleasant and calming dining experience I have ever had. Between the incredibly attentive hostesses--who were always on hand for questions, assistance, and to top off your sake cup--and the superior quality of the dishes served, sprinkled with the cute, simple, and clean authentic Japanese aesthenic. I cannot recommend this place enough. We may have paid a premium for this experience, but was it worth it? One hundred times yes. Will I be taking all of my friends here in the near future so they can experience the wonder as well? Also yes, and very soon.

Completely average, don't understand the reviews. Fried chicken was too big and gristly, agedashi tofu had a weird slimy sauce, rolls were flavorless and mushy, sashimi was average

As a seasoned culinary explorer, I am constantly on the hunt for exceptional sushi. I recently had the pleasure of dining at Takumi in Falls Church, Virginia and I must say, it was an unforgettable experience. From start to finish, every bite was a harmonious blend of flavors and textures, and the spicy scallop roll was nothing short of exceptional. The sushi chef's meticulous attention to detail was evident in every dish. The fish was impeccably fresh and expertly sliced to showcase its unique characteristics. The rice was cooked to perfection, with just the right amount of vinegar and sweetness. Each roll was elegantly crafted and presented, a true work of art. But it was the spicy scallop roll that stole the show. The tender, buttery scallops were perfectly complemented by a spicy kick that lingered on the palate, leaving me craving more. The roll itself was beautifully crafted, with a delicate balance of flavors and textures that perfectly complemented the star ingredient. It's not often that I find myself at a loss for words when it comes to sushi, but Takumi truly left me speechless. The attention to detail and commitment to excellence were evident in every dish, making it one of the best sushi experiences I've ever had. If you're a sushi lover, Takumi is an absolute must-visit.

We went there because of the reviews but we were a lil disappointed. It’s not bad, but it didnt taste fresh. Service and the atmosphere is good but we’ve definitely had better sushi. Miso soup was delicious though!

Fantastic quality sushi! A small restaurant with incredibly fresh fish. The chef's choice of fresh cuts was an absolute delight, and their extensive sake menu is very thorough in description and selection. The place is very thematic and intimate for a small location. More surprisingly, everything is moderately priced for the great quality you're getting. Sushi fans, don't sleep on this place. It's definitely up there with some of the bests!

Takumi is a popular sushi spot in the Falls church area and is slightly overhyped in my opinion. The sushi here is good but not anything spectacular especially given the price. I ordered the sushi tasting 3 which comes with 9 pieces of nigiri for $30. I would say that ordering the one with toppings is worth it as it does add a good twist. This place is small inside and mostly has 2 tops so keep this in mind when trying to come here in a bigger group! It seems that they take a lot of to go orders so don't be scared if you see a long line out the door (there is also no place to wait inside which attributes to the line being out the door).

I chose to go here since people had talked about how it's pretty good quality sushi for a decent price. I had really high hopes. Walking into the restaurant, it smelled very fishy in a bad way. I understand that there's fish but I know what fresh fish smells like vs borderline rotting fish. I ordered the salmon and avocado as well as the spicy salmon. My partner got the crunchy eel roll, soft shell crab roll, and salmon and avocado. Service was very slow and the place was pretty small so it's difficult to get a seat. Overall, the sushi was disappointing because the rice was mushy and lacked seasoning. Fish portion sizes were pretty small. I tried a bit of the crab roll and the crab was very fishy tasting. The other fish tasted fine though.

Takumi is a cute little shop situated on the corner. The interior is super fun with art fixtures and little fish lanterns hanging from the walls and ceilings. The staff was super friendly and helped us out a ton during our visit. Unfortunately, the sushi was pretty average, and a few of the pieces we got noticeably lacked quality. The tuna did not taste that fresh, and our fatty tuna with scallion roll didn't really have much flavor other than the scallion and seaweed.

Takumi is an excellent place if you're craving not just sashimi but creative and good flavors in nice rolls. It's not necessarily the basic plain rolls that you're used to at take out sushi joints -- they're pretty solid quality wise but also has enough of a twist where you won't be bored. The ambiance is lovely where you're in a small dining space. Parking is general available and this is a good small town date spot.

Decided to order again for lunch as this place is super close to my house. As noted in my earlier review, I wanted the rice on the outside of my rolls and figured it wouldn't be an issue to ask in the future. So this time I asked that the spicy tuna roll come with rice on the outside. They wanted to charge me to add rice. Rice is so inexpensive especially for a restaurant that makes rice in bulk. That's a bit ridiculous to me. The lunch special options are also very limited as to what you can order. Most are just trust the chef and the pick your own rolls you're limited to ones $7.5 or less. They don't allow you to pay the difference to have that roll included. The woman on the phone was SO RUDE. I probably won't come here again.

Hands down my favorite sushi restaurant in NoVa. Chef Jay trained at Kaz Sushi Bistro before opening this gem. The fish is always super fresh, and there are usually some varieties you won't see at generic sushi bars. Rolls are creative, and the salmon carpaccio appetizer is amazing. Takumi has some great sake choices, and recently added a Japanese whisky menu. The location is pretty cozy, so make sure to make reservations.

I was really excited about this restaurant based on the incredible reviews it had already, but it unfortunately left much to be desired. It was a very mediocre sushi experience. I didn't feel that the sashimi platter that we got was fresh, especially since the tuna that we had was fishy. I unfortunately wouldn't come back here because I think you can definitely find better quality sushi for a better price.

Loved this spot! Sukiyaki was great. Pricing was awesome. It was $19 for all of this food for a lunch special and it came with soup and salad. Everything that it came with was a win. Awesome and affordable lunch options.

Reservations highly recommended since the place is small. A friend introduced us to this small gem. We sat at the sushi bar and tried a variety of appetizers before a sushi tasting. Perfect way to enjoy the food here. Each dish was nicely plated and the flavors were delicious. The crunch in the yellowtail dish was a nice surprise. Scallops were so refreshing, the cucumber and seaweed underneath with a slight tangy sauce. The sushi tasting was delicious too. Toppings made each piece even more enjoyable.

Wow! My experience at Takumi was phenomenal and unexpected. I decided to go to Takumi because another restaurant I planned to go to had too long of a wait and Takumi was nearby. I am so glad I did because I have found my new favorite sushi spot. Wanting to try it all, I got the chefs choice sushi dinner and was blown away. Each sushi was topped with a different flavored sauce or accompaniment and the spicy scallop roll was fantastic. The wait staff was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and the fish we were eating. They answered all of our questions and made the dining experience fantastic. Even the miso soup was great! I can't wait to go back

What better way to kick start the weekend than getting some mouth watering sushi from Takumi! We were surprised by the variety of lunch and dinner sushi options at this restaurant. We decided to try the 2 Philadelphia rolls, Hawaiian roll and the Miso soups for dinner. The sushi tasted fresh and flavorful, the Miso soup felt like a warm hug with savory taste. Location: the restaurant itself is in the corner of the plaza next to hookah place in the heart of Falls Church, VA. The parking spaces are a bit tight and traffic can be hectic in this area. Timing is everything! Ambience and customer service: I placed the order by phone, and the person on the phone was attentive and polite. The inside of the restaurant is clean, organized and decorated in traditional Japanese art. There is an open bar where the chef makes all the sushi rolls to order. I can tell you one thing. The traffic is worth it because the quality and taste the food is excellent. If this will not get your taste buds ready to try some sushi, I don't know what will.

I'm a self proclaimed sushi connoisseur/snob. Growing up with a Japanese mom who made rolls for kids' snacks, I'd say I'm not good at anything but very well-versed in the raw fish world. I will seek out Omakase joints in DC since moving from NYC vastly reduced my options to that area but I'm always up for trying out new places suggested to me by trustworthy sources. Went here on a Friday night to a fully jam packed tiny dining area at 6pm. We were rushed which is why I took a star off. I'm not one to stick around and linger even when there's no people waiting. I noticed a long line of people outside and was planning to her after finishing our hot sake. I felt it was a tad rude that the waitress gave us the check the VERY MOMENT we said no to dessert. I've had this happen at Korean restaurants, and as a Korean, I'm not proud that that's a regular occurrence there. But this was a bit of a shocker. The minus one star also includes not having regular hot green tea. Most, if not all, authentic Japanese sushi restaurants will provide free hot ocha. Here, you have to choose from a list of pricey green teas that I'm not even familiar with enough to make that difference. Anyway, the rest of the stars are all for the food. It's not even $30 for a full 9 piece quality nigiri. We also were asked if we didn't like something and we noted we didn't want eel or squid and they complied without increasing the price. Was VERY appreciated to the detail and request. The lunch was less impressive but hey, it's lunch and $5-7 cheaper so what'd I expect? That's the norm but just mentioning it so the expectations are set. I generally don't like regular salmon or tuna but even those were fresh, sweet, and delightful. The hot sake was great- we shared two large carafes. Lunch comes with miso soup and a small side salad- not dinner though so the amount shown might not be enough for someone over 100 lbs (myself).

Takumi is a cute and cozy restaurant in Falls Church City. It has a sushi bar and a relatively small dining room. It is quite popular and may not be the best option for large parties. The sushi is fresh and generally better when you come for dinner. Its lunch menu offers many great options at reasonable prices. My favorite is its sushi/sashimi bento box for lunch.

Jay is AMAZING. The sushi here is fresh, high quality, and the vibe is very cute. Perfect date place for foodies. Get the salmon, taro, Hawaiian walu, and uni. You won't regret it! AND the best part? It's not in DC :D Win win win 5/5

Ate here before heading out to KC for Ali Wong show. Place was not busy at 5pm - good thing since it's a small restaurant - booth seating is always nice. For apps, Ordered octopus, tempura assortment, tofu & edamames - octopus tad spicy, tofu had yummy sauce. For entrees, ordered sashimi, a few rolls - delish - only the house eel roll had too chewy texture - otherwise, solid sushi. Really enjoyed the sake too - perfect diner for preShow

It's a cozy with nice ambiance restaurant within the small outlet in falls church area. The nearby parking areas available behind the restaurant. Without the reservation, we were lucky to get a table for four on the Sunday evening. The foods and service are quite good. The dinner menu (chef's choice) with sushi tasting 1 (6 pcs nigiri & 1 roll) and sashimi (17 pieces) are fresh and quite tasty. Highly recommended.

Service was mostly good, except for one grumpy server. Just part of life. The restaurant is small, but it was not hard to get a seat after waiting for 10 minutes. Sushi is reasonably priced. We ordered quite a few rolls of Sushi. But, the best deal was on the warm Sake. There are about four to five shots of Sake in each serving and price was reasonable. For a small place, the ambiance was nice. It felt cozy and personal. There is a sushi in the back in case you walk-in. Parking is there behind the restaurant or around the building. The building shares space with another popular Latin restaurant and on a busy night, parking could be tight.

took my husband here for his birthday lunch! we came after a busy morning laying down wreaths in Arlington & decided to surprise him with Takumi for lunch. we came once for my birthday and he loved it so much, it's all he talked about for a while. we ordered off the lunch menu (which is offered on the weekends as well) & a la carte. as it was his birthday, I let him take the reigns on ordering. we ended up getting: lunch menu: - roll combo $14 - chicken tatsutaage bento $12 a la carte: - toro - yuzu tobiko - uni (maine) - uni (hokkaido) - ikura (w/ quail egg) -calamari pasta w/ uni & quail egg delicious no matter what. in the two years we haven't been here, this place is still amazing. food comes out hot and steamy. rolls are rolled to perfection. rice is seasoned properly. truly you can't beat this sushi spot. the uni from Hokkaido is drool worthy. it's so sweet vs. the uni from maine. the yuzu tobiko is the perfect hint of yuzu and is like biting into a citrus. this is it. this is the spot you want to go to if you're in the area. even if you're not, it's worth the drive. because you deserve good sushi. not even good, fantastic sushi.

Takumi Sushi truly delivers a delicious dining experience. The Hamachi appetizer was impeccable, leading the way for a flavorful miso soup abundant with seaweed. The agadashi tofu and sashimi dinner were standout dishes, with thick slices of fish showcasing their commitment to quality. Ending the meal with a comparison between their West Coast and Hokkaido uni was nothing short of a treat. Highly recommended for anyone seeking delightful sushi fare.

Unfortunately, I felt a bit tricked by the aggregate Yelp review for Takumi. I realize that not everyone has had the experience of eating $400+ omakase meals from the highest echelon sushi establishments, but I can't really fathom why a 4.5 star is the average here. Let's start with the positives. The service and appetizers were good, which consisted of the kanpachi carppacio and the calamari pasta. The carppacio was a bit over-sauced for me but not a huge deterrent as the sauce can be drained a bit off to the plate. The texture was firm and had a familiar "fresh" taste, a term that is overly used in sushi reviews. The fact is that larger fish are aged for days or weeks prior to it being served. Anyways, the calamari pasta was the highlight of the omakase for me. The mix of the julienned calamari, uni, julienned shiso leaf, and thin nori all worked in a harmonious unison of texture and taste. A tasty and well executed dish. So, let me now list the negatives. I am deducting one star for shari execution; the rice seemed to have little to no seasoning, was cold, and was pressed too firmly. The other star deduction is for value; the meal came out to over $300 with tip and tea. We had an amazing meal in Oahu at Sushi Sasabune for nearly the same price with more courses. The neta was mostly fine but clearly not the best I've ever had; they included bluefin tuna, hotate, walu, arctic char, hiramasa, various uni, ebi, bronzino, tai, sawara, and salmon. Anyways, don't trust the 5 star reviews here. They clearly don't know anything about upper echelon omakase. I would suggest to spend a little extra on Sushi Nakazawa in DC, as the quality and value is better.

I've been here a million times since they opened & I will continue going back, I'm just a slacker ablut posting reviews. Their sushi is always delicious, the mushroom soup is divine, the service is always kind and non-intrusive. If you've got a hankering for sushi, go, you won't regret it. & get the Born Wing of Japan sake - OMG DELICIOUS!

The sushi here is next-level, crafted with an attention to detail that's both artistic and respectful of traditional technique. The fish is melt-in-your-mouth fresh, and the Omakase experience was an unforgettable journey through the best the sea has to offer. Service was great we had no reservations but they were able to seat us right away.

Sushi was amazing, we ordered several pieces of Nigiri and various rolls and all were very tasty and high quality. Sat at the bar where service was great, chefs friendly, and great overall ambiance. Miso soup was also delicious and better than most places with big pieces of seaweed! Looking forward to going back and trying more!

My fam loves sushi and we all love Takumi. We come here all the time & it is yet another fave place that I was always so busy enjoying that I never reviewed it, lol. I did find some old pics that I will include from pre-Covid Christmas Eve 2019. This sushi hotspot focuses on simple nigiri and sashimi. The chef, Jay Yu, spent 13 years at Kaz and also worked at Cafe Asia, Raku and even Safeway making sushi rolls. He is a master! We came for a special celebration and our dinner consisted of white wine & Sake to drink, and to eat for a party of four (one person not eating sushi) we had miso soup, Chicken Japanese-style Deep Fried Wings with Soy Glazed Pepper, Oh-toro (Fatty Tuna), Artic Char (Iceland Cold Water Fish), Tuna with Italian Black Truffle, Hamachi Belly with Lime Zest, Spicy Tuna roll, Soft Shell Crab roll, Saba (Norwegian Mackerel), Uni (Sea Urchin), Walu with Wasabi Pickle, Sake with Mango Puree, & Sake (Atlantic salmon). The fish is so fresh & like buttah, wow! The sake was recommended to us by our server & was perfect. Service was fantastic. Place is always clean. The only miss was that they were out of their green tea ice cream & my son was hankering for it on a very special landmark bday for him so that was a big bummer. It was a Saturday night when usually everything is ramped up prep-wise so we were a bit surprised by this. FYI ~ They are closed on Sundays. It is small & gets very busy so make a reso if you can.

Oh my goodness. I have not had such smooth and fresh fish like this before! Came for a birthday celebration after a recommendation from my cousin. Friday night, it was busy and a bit of a wait so do make a reservation if you don't want OT wait! The oh toro was the definition of melt in your mouth butter. That and the seared salmon and seared scallops was my and my bf's favorite. The speciality rolls like the soft shell crab was crispy and perfectly made. We ordered a 2nd roll because it was just that good! Highly recommend, one of my favorite sushi spots in the DMV area

Hands down the best sushi in Falls Church. Ran by a family who seems to all be working there the many times we've visited. In the crazy sushi world with wacky rolls that constantly try to top each other in the amount of cream cheese and fried crispy stuff with loads of mayo squirted all over, it's nice to have a more of a simple sushi restaurant. Everything that they do here is amazing and done with care. I wouldn't be surprised if in a few years if this place gets a Bib Gourmand. The amount of care and dedication is apparent on every trip. Try their sushi tasting with toppings or just go all out and get their 17 piece sashimi. Order a bottle of your favorite Sake and a Orion beer and enjoy your meal. Just make sure to make a reservation on Friday/Saturday nights as the establishment is pretty small and tends to fill up quick.

A Japanese friend recommended this spot to us and we were not disappointed. Albeit the relatively hefty price tag, we enjoyed the sushi sampler which is a great option for those who prefer not to stress over which nigiri to choose and pair with. Call the restaurant before making your way there as it was packed to the brim on a Saturday night and the line was rather long.

I feel like I wasn't able to try as much as I would like yesterday night because I wasn't too hungry, but the sushi I got was pretty good. I definitely have to come back in the future to try their other rolls or nigiris. The pricing here isn't too bad and I'd recommend stopping by during lunch on the weekday if you can to take advantage of their affordable lunch specials. SEARED SALMON BELLY WITH LEMON JUICE & SWEET SOY - 7.50 This order comes with two nigiris. While it's on the more pricy side, the salmon belly had a nice seared taste and the belly was fatty and soft. The sauce went well with the salmon and overall, these nigiris were two very tasty bites. I'd recommend this if you want something more special and you're down to splurge a bit. SAKE (SALMON) REGULAR ROLL - 5.50 This is your classic salmon roll with rice on the inside and seaweed on the inside. Overall, the salmon was pretty fresh and fatty. However, some of the pieces lacked salmon (way too much rice and not enough salmon) so the inconsistency threw me off. NEGITORO (FATTY TUNA & SCALLION) - 8 The negitoro was great - seems like it was a bit minced? The scallions provided the perfect crunch and enhanced the tuna. Again, rice on the inside and seaweed on the inside, so it's pretty small. Overall, pretty tasty. Overall, pretty good sushi here! My friends also enjoyed the rolls they got so I definitely have to come back to try other options here. I wouldn't recommend this for a "fancy" sushi experience (as some Yelpers have complained) but more so a casual dinner experience you're willing to pay a bit more for.

The fish at Takumi is fresh and delicious! The lean tuna with olive was the best thing I had. I will definitely return.

What a great find! This is my new favorite sushi restaurant in NOVA. My go to sushi place is sushi taro in DC but I'd never found anything up to par in northern VA until now! This place feels authentic and no frills, small Japanese restaurant. The fish is fresh and delicious! I ordered all my favorites - tuna, fatty tuna, salmon, yellow tail, sweet shrimp, Tamago and none of them disappointed!! This place is small so definitely call to make a reservation in advance. Lots of families with kids and I brought my own kiddos so I'd say family friendly as well. Small parking lot next to restaurant. Service was a bit slow but I think they had a lot of takeout orders. I will definitely be back again!!

Really underwhelming experience,I can't believe that they have 4.5 stars,but maybe it was a bad lack and kitchen had a tough day. We ordered takeout on Saturday night and had 2 chirashi orders and 1 hand roll,together with tax we paid 70 dollars. On the positive side was that order was ready on time and fish wasn't bad. Now to the negative. For 28 dollars we got no miso sou,"salad" was literally 5 or 6 dry salad leaves without any dressing,just leaves. For the value,this was like everyone got half of order,fish was sliced paper thin,only basic fishes and almost not existed salmon,absolutely no egg omelette,no octopus,calamari or scallops. Rice was like made from the box,wrong texture and blend. Basic,small and disappointing. This all what I can say.

Lovely sushi restaurant in Falls Church! Fish was very tender, fresh, and melted in the mouth. Miso soup had a deep, delicious flavor and a good amount of seaweed and the tempura was perfectly fried. Service was attentive and the chef deserves many kudos! We were hungry for high quality sushi and sashimi and Takumi delivered. So glad we came!

Cute intimate ambiance, great lunch special on rolls!I got a pick 3 rolls for around $15-$16 lunch special with miso soup + salad & all was delicious! Would definitely recommend & go back.

Takumi is first class. Friendly, Fulfilling, Fun, Fresh Fish and right here in Falls Church. Who knew? Well, to the Yelpers who went before me, thanks for your encouragement. Each time I have been there, I am sure there was a huge smile behind the mask of the women who greeted and seated us. The servers work in tandem and are helpful navigating the menu and pointing the freshest specialties. The kitchen is efficient, and food is served in short order with that Japanese flair and an impressive presentation. Miso soup with mushrooms was subtly delicious. Tempura vegetables were light and perfectly fried. The sushi plates come in a variety of sizes depending on the size of your appetite. The churasi bowl was phenomenal - tuna, artic char, salmon, octopus, shrimp, bubble fish among the offerings I can remember, accompanied by the rice. Everything so fresh, so delicious.

Not particularly high quality fish. The chef's choice underdelivered. The cooked items were actually much better than the sushi, particularly the wings and the tempura.

Excellent Lunch Option. SUB $20 for approx 2 rolls & 4 pieces sushi OR 6 piece sushi & 1 roll. Quality Miso Soup & Salad (w/ spinach!) Included. The Sushi Sets are some of the best Value, Highest quality and most professionally constructed in the DMV. Every time I order Sushi set 2 plus Walu with Wasibi Pickle. Every time Im glad I came. Every time I look forward to coming back. I don't think they offer fresh wasabi on the menu. They should.

Small spot, but worth the visit for their sushi. It's in my neighborhood, so it is nice to have fresh and reasonably priced sushi without having to travel to DC (especially now that I am busy with kids and don't have the time for dinners and brunches downtown like I used to. Most of their menu items are delicious. Also, they have a nice sake selection if you like sake.

Had to stop by for some sushi, looked appealing at first, walked in and was greeted with kind staff. Sat down and the waiter gave recommendations, The peach matcha tea was good and you get a whole pot of it for a reasonable price, the assortment of tempura was alright but nicely presented, there was okra tempura which is pretty good actually, green bean tempura which was pretty bad, shrimp and sweet potato tempura were good though. Then the sushi came... at first I noticed the Otoro was around a week and a half old maybe more, didn't say anything about it but I should've. Everything else was pretty alright though Also they told me their wasabi had no green food dye but i immediately recognized the brand of wasabi that does have the food dye. Couldn't bother to check the ingredient list on the wasabi before telling me... Then it was time for dessert but I didn't get any because they no longer sold the two desserts I wanted to get. On top of all of this I payed around $100 alone for these two sushi plates. Very overpriced but pretty decent considering MOST of the fish tasted fresh and service was good

I went back to try the sashimi and sushi dinner and they were amazing and prices were very reasonable. One of my favorite sushi places in Virginia. Unfortunately they were low in stock on lots of drinks and dessert options but the fish is fresh and their flavor pairings were great

A friend of mine highly recommended this place, and I can see why. The sushi was really delicious and the fish was fresh! My favorites are the Oh-toro (fatty tuna) Hamachi Belly with Lime Zest, and Seared Salmon Belly with Lemon Juice & Sweet Soy! I also like how they put wasabi in between the fish and rice for the nigiri, which is traditional for Japanese sushi. The interior was nice, and service was great as well, will definitely return one day!

We had 2 chirashi to-go for lunch and this is the best chirashi i ever had. It came with a small salad and a small miso soup. The fish was very fresh and plentiful( 11 pieces, plus surimi).

This place is a gem! Went for the first time with a friend last week. Lovely service, great food, incredible prices. Will be returning!

As far as neighborhood sushi spots...what more could ones as for. The special O-negitori roll is always amazing. The G1 or G2 is always delicious. Plus they have great options for sake and Japanese Whisky. What more could one want?

I've been craving sushi and this has been on my list, so ubereats to the rescue! While the rolls and food in general are great, the portions are extremely small for the price. I'm used to even basic rolls (spicy tuna, salmon, etc) being way bigger than what I received with Takumi. Tonight i went with two orders of the seared salmon belly, lobster with wasabi mayo roll, seaweed salad, Brussels sprouts, blue crab with old bay salt, ebi, and a spicy tuna roll. Every serving was two pieces each minus the spicy tuna roll, but it all tasted amazing. I will definitely be back, but for $52, the serving sizes should definitely be bigger Great food, small portions. I'll be back soon to try new things and reorder a few things I got this time.

Best nigiri in the DMV. There isn't anything here that isn't good. Jay is phenomenal behind the sushi bar and one of the best experiences is to sit there with a bottle of sake and do omakase. The spicy tuna, salmon or scallop hand rolls are some of the best I've had. Finish your meal with the seared salmon belly nigiri. It is perfection.

Ended up getting delivery from this place after a miscommunication with Mother about where we were planning to eat/not eat/not go out at all. Anyway, I wasn't sure what to expect from delivery sushi, but I must say I was impressed with this place! The quality of the fish is amazing. I think I got it about as fresh as possible because the GrubHub driver arrived there early before the food was even ready. Overall the food's arrival was speedy. My mom still can't bring herself to try raw fish, so she had the salmon teriyaki which she really liked. I had some sashimi and shumai and it was very good. The dragon roll was also good, which is almost like sushi since the pieces of fish on top are not skimpy. We both ate with happy stomachs. I don't live in the area anymore, but I would and will order from here again when I'm in town.

We went to Takumi on a last-minute date night. It was a great choice. Takumi is a small, cozy place. We chose to sit at the sushi bar near the back. It was quiet and pleasant, and the service was excellent. The food was very fresh and tasted great. There are not too many offerings for rolls, but we had no problem finding several that we liked. We had the seaweed salad and miso soup which were both very good. For the mains we had two roles each all of which were excellent: California, House, crunch shrimp and crunch eel. We also tried the Japanese beers. The Echigo red ale was overly sweet and had mushy mouth feel. However, the Echigo premium stout was a nice surprise as it was sweet and crisp which went remarkably well with sushi.
