Yamazato Sushi & Spice

Loved it! This is our new favorite local sushi restaurant. We ordered tuna and shrimp nigiri and three chef's special rolls: the Potomac, Kamikaze, and one with mango whose name I forget. We got tempura ice cream and coconut ice cream with fried banana for dessert. Absolutely delicious and excellent service.

Yamazato should be ashamed of their service and behavior. My fiancé and I ordered delivery tonight and specifically asked for our sushi rolls to be packaged in separate containers because one of us has a shellfish allergy. When the food arrived, it all came in the same container and had been mixed together making it a risk to consume. We called the manager to explain what had happened, only for him to yell at us and be extremely rude over the phone. No offer to refund, no offer to send the order again.. Overall horrible service. We were not expecting such a harsh response from the manager over such a simple mishap, but due to their rude response and lack of consideration for their customers, we will not order from Yamazato again.

Top notch sushi AND service. Their whole range of sushi —from a simple maki roll, to their special rolls— is fresh, with high quality ingredients, and perfectly prepared sushi rice. Easily some of the best quality sushi in Northern VA. Their Thai food is hits the spot as well. I would say their specialty is sushi, and you won’t be underwhelmed by their Thai food. Service is stellar, for pickup or takeout. Highly recommend for a local, 5 star, urban quality sushi bar with fairly authentic Thai options for your friends who don’t love raw fish :)
