Yoyogi Sushi

Yoyogi Sushi holds a special place in my heart, and my connection with this place goes back over 22 years. When I used to live just 5 minutes away, I found myself dining at Yoyogi 2-3 times a week. As a sushi lover, I have to say, Yoyogi is the only place I order California rolls. What sets them apart is the incredibly thin layer of rice that generously holds an abundance of delicious crab meat. Similarly, their salmon avocado rolls are a real treat - loaded with generous portions of salmon. These rolls are simply irresistible. Now, living all the way in Northern Virginia, I occasionally find myself hit with an intense Yoyogi craving. Whenever I'm in town, particularly around Gaithersburg, it's a no-brainer – I head to Yoyogi. The transition to takeout-only after the pandemic hasn't diminished the quality of their food. It's perfect for those sunny days when I can enjoy my meal on a bench, in my car, or at a friend's house. Speaking of which, Yoyogi is a go-to for potluck parties, and I always bring one of their sushi platters. The owner and staff are incredibly friendly, making every visit a warm and inviting experience. Finding parking is hassle-free; there are spaces across the street, and street parking is also an option. When I order, I typically go for the house salad with ginger dressing, salmon avocado roll, eel roll, spider roll, California roll, seafood udon, crispy chicken, and rice. I highly recommend stopping by Yoyogi or considering one of their sushi platters for your next event. Yoyogi's consistency in quality, along with their friendly atmosphere, makes it a true gem in the world of sushi.

Great little place, take out / pick up only. I ordered online. I like the rice to fish ratio (generous portions) and how my order was placed into one container, which is less wasteful and I got all the fixins (wasabi, pickled ginger, soy sauce, chopsticks, napkins) in the bag so it’s truly ready to eat. They gave a little gift with the order for their 20th anniversary. Nice for low key sushi days. Congratulations, happy 20 years anniversary.
