Kaz Sushi Bistro

Server and staff were super nice and attentive. The food, as usual, was excellent. Sushi is fresh and authentic. The rice was well prepared and the fish and sauces tasty. My only slight complaint was that the nori was a tad on the stale side, but not in a way that detracted from the stellar flavor. The miso soup, tempura, salmon skin roll, and seaweed salad were among the best we’ve had in this area! Kaz and Sushi Taro (at lunch) remain my go-tos for a la carte sushi in DC. 👍👍

A wonderful sushi restaurant that is on the higher-end and more upscale than it needs to be. The staff are really nice and the restaurant provides cozy and warm vibes, but the food was on the pricier end. We had their specialty nigiri but found them to not be all too special; however, the winning dish of the night went to their salmon roll with pickled pineapple and basil. Somehow, that flavor palette blew my mind, and I still can't stop thinking about how delicious it was.

The food was spectacular. The service was perfect. I highly recommend this restaurant. The ingredients were all fresh and delectable. My daughter had the lobster and grilled avocado and can’t stop talking about weeks later. Her sushi and roll selections delighted her. She exclaimed how fresh every bite of seafood was. As a vegan, I had the warm cauliflower and kale salad and I seriously contemplated getting a second serving! It was so flavorful and just a perfect way to start my meal. The crispy Brussels sprouts with sweet potatoes are a must have! I ordered inside out avocado and oshinko rolls and they were both delicious. The avocado was perfection! We will definitely add Kaz Sushi Bistro to our regular rotation every time we are in DC.

I had this sushi as a precursor warm up to an omakase experience later that week. Great idea! I ordered a sashimi plate, red snapper head, and a tuna belly maki roll. Soft, melt in your mouth sushi, nice seaweed on the roll, and the snapper head was very good - shockingly meaty. The service was on point and quick. A little busy when I went and almost overcrowded in a way. Food is worth the trip.

The hanger steak appetizer was delicious. Was my first time trying actual caviar (not the biggest fan but that’s just personal preference). Also tried the sea urchin out of curiosity, wasn’t anything special. My favorite was the spicy California. Recommend giving this spot a shot, they have unique options and service was good.

I mean, I asked for recommendation, they recommended crunchy shrimp and I picked a few of my favorites as well which is why I think they deserve all 5 stars. I make sushi’s of my own and kinda experienced in that and I loved those, (oh yea, there goes the but) BUT I wouldn’t recommend this place honestly. Sorry to the owner and the incredible chef, the environment is not very suiting in my opinion for the price. I was hoping for a cozier atmosphere. I went there with a date and it was very crowded and we weren’t comfortable which is the only reason I’m giving them 4. Best of luck.👍🏻
