Tokyo Sushi Asian Bistro

I just found this hidden gem in Germantown! One of the best Sushi places ever! I have been here twice in past week already! Staff are courteous and the restaurant is clean and plenty of parking spots. They also have take out. I have not tried their other foods but have tried three different Sushis. Loved them all. Samurai Sushi was the last one and exceptional.

I was hesitant about buying sushi for delivery but I’m glad I found a spot I can’t trust. I ordered the Cali, philly, and volcano rolls. The volcano roll was good, the only thing I would say is a little lighter on the sriracha sauce. The other two were great. Gotta try out their other plates but this was delish!
P.s — the girl who answered the phone was friendly :) awesome spot.

Sushi is very good here. I’ve had the maki lunch special twice now. The price is not the lowest around but it is very reasonable. They have a very rich miso soup — perfect for a chilly day. Last time I had the food to go. Today I am at the sushi bar. I feel that the bar and seats are too low. Only very tall people would be able to watch the sushi being prepared. I was hoping for some kind of tasting while sitting at the bar, but it seems they don’t do that here. However it is a wonderful presentation complete with orchid.

The food here is fantastic!!! We got the sexy jalapeño, pink lady, and the crazy roll. All delicious!!! I recommend all 3! The ambiance is nice — and the music /​tvs aren’t too loud like most restaurants. I love that the bar area is separate — next time I will eat there. I only deducted 1 star because the service just wasn’t friendly/​warm. And since I’ve worked in restaurants, service means a lot to me! Everything else was great. This is def a local gem.

Best sushi I have ever had!!! Everything is fresh and wonderfully made. Will return again.

Everything is fresh! Perfectly cooked rice! I have been going to Yakura place but I think this one is going to be my favorite sushi place! Highly recommendation this place!

We order take out Chinese about once a week from Tokyo Sushi.
They deliver tasty food fast for a reasonable price.

Came here on Wednesday night in a group of five. It was pretty empty and very clean. We were obviously seated right away. The menu is large and have some interesting foods and rolls that you can order.
Food was pretty good. They pay a lot of detail to presentation in some of their dishes. They garnish the dish with creative cuttings of vegetables and squirt interesting sauce designs over your plate.
I had the chirashi. The plate was humongous and was nicely displayed the food, but the food was only a fifth of the size of the plate, so it was a bit much. They did cut really large slices of sashimi. It was about ¾ inch thick. It was good but not great in flavor. It also came with a bowl of miso soup.
My friend ordered cheese steak filled egg rolls. Concept sounded interesting. The actual cheese and steak were delicious and would have made a great cheese steak. The egg roll wrapping tasted as you would expect an egg roll to taste; however, together they just did not add up. The roll was just ok when u eat it by itself. When you eat it with the sweat and sour dipping sauce though, it was pretty good.
My friend also ordered general tso. Tasted better than your whole in the wall tso, but nothing to drive out of your way for.
My wife had some angry dragon roll with fried crab and avacodo and other stuff. It was really good.
This place is a good place to come for groups especially if some people don’t really like sushi because there are many other cooked items.

The best sushi in the Germantown area. Beautiful and individually tailored presentations for sushi. Also really good pan-​fried dumplings. It’s my new go to place!

This place is great. Sit at the sushi bar and ask the young guy what is fresh and then just let him be creative.

I have been looking for amazing sushi close by and I have to say I think I found it! The tuna was so fresh and it made me feel like I was sitting at the beach after a fishing trip and just eating chunks of tuna while cleaning it. You can’t go wrong with any of the rolls they have my favorite was the amazing roll which was the perfect amount of sweet and spicy! I will be going back many more times!!$

We had the amazing roll, crazy roll, imperial dragon roll, California and volcano roll. Everything’s tasty and portions are large. Presentation is literally flashy because they had a LED light in a martini glass. The restaurant has a bit of identity crisis because there is Chinese music playing and a Chinese menu. The waitress didn’t understand when we asked for donburi.

I love sushi, and I love trying new sushi places. So when our usual sushi place was packed and no longer accepting reservations, we went on to Unilocal and found this place.
First thing we noticed was that it’s kind of hard to find; it’s hidden at the back of a strip mall and kind of around a corner, hidden by a sports bar. Next thing; the place was empty. We were the only customers after 7 on a Saturday night. While we were there we noticed a lot of people picking up take out, which made us feel better…
But then we tried the food. And wondered why there weren’t more people. We got the Madness roll (brilliant, spicy tuna, and I’m blanking on the rest), the Washington roll (tempured shrimp and avocado), a spicy tuna hand roll, and an eel roll. All very tasty and a decent size. We ended up ordering the Tokyo Tsunami (an interesting roll with a rice pancake, avocado, and tuna)… Elegantly displayed. Heck, all the sushi was elegantly displayed. Good but cheap saké too.
This might be our new favorite sushi place near our place. Highly recommended.

I ordered delivery from them a couple days ago via GrubHub. I got the sashimi dinner which is right around $ 20. I live on a tight budget, so this was a night where I felt I was splurging. That is, until the food arrived. I was amazed at how much fish there was! It came with 5 different kinds of fish (although I think that may differ depending on what they have fresh that day) and 3 huge pieces of each kind of fish. It also comes with miso soup and a little container of rice.
I was also really happy with how quickly the food came. GrubHub gave me an estimate time of about an hour, but they were at my door in under 30 minutes.
Lastly, everything was really delicious. The fish was super tasty, and I loved the miso soup that came with it. Not too salty, not too bland. All in all, I’m really quite happy with these guys!

Fresh sushi great atmosphere. .but their drink menu is lacking. Only wine and beer and saki. Most places have mixed drinks but overall I love this place

Came here for lunch with my cousin randomly after a run. Oh my goodness. Their sushi was AMAZING. I haven’t have such good sushi in such a long time and I’m still dreaming about their sushi as I type this review. My cousin and I decided to try their speciality roll– the crazy roll– which consisted of shrimp tempura, cucumber, tuna, spicy mayo, and eel sauce. Sprinkled with a good amount of crunchy panko flakes, and ta-​da. The crazy roll is born. The rolls were on the larger side, and they didn’t skimp on the shrimp or tuna which I was happy about. It was in my opinion the perfect shrimp tempura roll, especially with the sauces drizzled on top and the extra crunch from the panko flakes. This roll had my umami taste buds singing!
One of the servers suggested we also try «The Godfather» roll, which was their lunch special at the time. It was another shrimp tempura roll with cream cheese, eel, tuna, salmon, and topped with caviar. The presentation of the sushi blew me away. It was too pretty to eat. Again, these were bigger rolls and they didn’t skimp on the fish.
The restaurant had a handful of people dining in and ordering take out, but it was still a pretty quiet and chill atmosphere. The restaurant has a modern vibe to it and is super clean. The staff was helpful and attentive. This restaurant can easily be a place to have sushi with family or friends, or can easily be a date night restaurant.
I left the place with fully satisfied and with the intent to come back. With full bellies, my cousin and I were in absolute bliss from sushi heaven. Definitely 100% going to return to try the other sushi rolls when the next sushi craving hits! In my opinion, it’s worth the extra drive for me.

My BFF and I were adventuring off to Yuraku when GASP! It was a Monday and they were closed. We quickly Unilocaled what was nearby and found this quaint place for sushi.

Con’s
— Wish the rolls were a tad larger
All in all I had a great experience and will be my go to place on Monday’s when Yuraku is closed. Sorry Tokyo Sushi, Yuraku comes first.

My daughter and I went here for the first time for lunch. Lunch special was very good. I had spicy tuna and spicy crab sushi rolls. My daughter had California roll and eel avocado roll. All delicious and nicely presented.
The tea was not what I liked though, it’s bitter.

Oh wow! I am in love with this place!
Since I did not feel like cooking, my boyfriend and I decided to visit for a rather unusual Easter dinner. We were not disappointed!
We ordered Singapore noodles with chicken and shrimp (no pork! yay!), a Germantown roll, a Philly roll, a Dragon roll and a spicy tuna roll.
That food never had a chance…
The noodles were excellent! The curry was flavorful, but not too spicy, with generous amounts of both chicken and shrimp. The portion size was more than enough to share.
But the sushi… that was the star of the show. Literally.
Our platter came adorned with some kind of bamboo stick sculpture with color changing lights and tropical flowers, carrot and cucumber carvings… it was almost too pretty to eat. Almost…
This was some of the best sushi we’ve had. The flavors were fantastic. The rolls were a little larger than we were used to, but that was fine by us. The Philly roll was a little different, as they added avocado to their version. I had no complaints; I love avocado. and it was a very good addition. The Dragon and Germantown rolls were equally stunning in both presentation and flavor. The spicy tuna roll… well, let’s just say that that was one of the first to go.
The restaurant is a beautiful, quaint and cozy spot tucked in the furthest corner of the shopping center. The staff were attentive and very nice. The prices were fantastic for such a well-​made product. (We’ve paid way more for sub-​par sushi in DC).
I’ve got a feeling that we’ll be regulars here.

When a new sushi restaurant opened in Germantown, I was intrigued to see it got rave reviews on Unilocal and whether or not it’s better than Yuraku, which is famously known for its portion size, fresh fish and long lines to get in. After trying three dishes (1 appetizer, 1 special roll and 1 cold dish), Tokyo Sushi is about $ 2 more expensive per dish than Yuraku, any way you cut it.
Pros:
— Better than average sushi taste, as they offer flavorful rolls with various spiciness and sweetness. The imperial dragon roll for example, was fresh and delicious.
— Easy parking.
— Plenty of open seats on a traditionally busy Saturday night (probably a con too).
Cons:
— Portion size is definitely smaller than Yuraku, at the same price. Either increase the portion size or lower the cost in general by $ 2. Asian fried oyster had small pieces and should have been $ 2 cheaper. Imperial dragon roll was $ 11.99, had 8 relatively small pieces and should have been $ 9.99. And Tokyo chips (6 pieces) should have been $ 12.99 and not $ 14.99
— Hot tea costs extra. Tap water from Montgomery County as usual, is always free.
— They used Pringle chips for the Tokyo Chips dish. That’s pretty low consider the dish costs $ 14.99
— Strange that they have two pages of Chinese food on their menu. This is usually not a good sign. Look at Yuraku and Temari Café’s menu — straight up Japanese cuisine.
We may come back if Tokyo Sushi decides to offer Groupon deals or lower their cost. Until then, there is no financial or saliva advantage to come here than Yuraku.
