Shibuya Eatery

A friend and I had reservations for lunch at the counter. The nigiri hamachi yellowtail was delicious; nigiri blue fin tuna (medium fatty belly) was...OK; miso soup was tasty; and the Spider roll was amazing. Service was prompt and not intrusive. Will return the next time I'm in DC. Dec 3/22

Really solid spot overall. Excellent cocktails (the Spanish Magic was perfectly balanced), finger-licking good skewers (sampled both the chicken thighs and the pork and they were dusted perfectly with the rub), tender and well grilled and seasoned eggplant, and competent sashimi. I would say the sashimi was the only thing that could use some improvement, it just wasn't as fresh as what you would expect for a $52 12-piece. I think you're better off getting a few small plates and a couple of maki rolls here.

We dined in the cozy and dimly basement at the sushi bar. It's got a cool feel to it though others might find it a bit too cramped.

Service was wonderful, our hostess was very friendly and helpful throughout the night.
