Was looking for sushi and hibachi near my hotel, and this place hit the spot. Hot, fresh, and delicious. The only downside they only offered takeout, and I was looking to dune in. I ordered the hibachi chicken,spring rolls and sumo rolls sushi.
Ordered Momiji for delivery and it was great quality! The fish tasted fresh and they gave us very generously sized pieces. Only complaint was that the miso soup that came with my order was not very good.
I really enjoyed the food, but the place to order & pick up wasn't a pleasant atmosphere. While I ordered and waited by the door, I got tons of bites from unknown insects & there were a lot of people hanging around the area that made me uncomfortable. Food wise, I ordered the Happy Santa roll, Mackey, & peanut & avocado rolls. I enjoyed them all. I also got edamame & shrimp Udon soup noodles. Tasty! I'd likely order online or via a delivery service next time. Service was very polite, patient, & friendly.
I came 2 years ago to DC and found this place. Now that I came back for 3 days, I had all my meals there. That is how much I liked it. Rolls are filled with fish rather than too much rice. Perfect ratio. The Capital roll was my favorite: filled with 4 types of fish and covered in avocado and eel. Delicious. Will be back when I'm in DC again and will definitely recommend to anyone that likes sushi.
Service is very fast. The temperature is cold but I guess that is good for the fish, so bring a jacket if you need to.
Was @ Momiji for lunch on a Sunday. We, a party of 2 walked in during late afternoon and were seated right away. Service was good and the food was also good. Would visit again.

We ordered cold sake and it was really good. Appetizers were tasty. Loved the sweetie rolls sushi from their signature sushi list. Did not like the “dynamite” sushi rolls much. Must try their white tuna for appetizers.
Would visit again 👍
Delivery review.
I very much enjoyed the food. Good selection of traditional and specialty rolls that come at a significant premium.
All rolls are pretty big.
Recommended: spicy salmon, and sweetie roll.
Very good - Christmases roll (tuna avocado).
Not my thing: Boston roll.
Good tuna and salmon sashimi: you can pick individual pieces and come mai in sizeable servings.
Tried the take out. The Unagi Don’s octopus is not very fresh. The taste is about average. Nothing big to complain. But just not worth visiting again.
I WAS CRAVING SUSHI AND HAD SEEN HIGH REMARKS ABOUT THIS PLACE ON SOCIAL MEDIA SO I WENT. EXPECTING TO SIT DOWN AND EAT THEY’RE ONLY OPEN FOR TAKEOUT! BUMMER! BUT THAT DIDN’T STOP ME FROM GIVING THIS PLACE A GO. I ordered 2 rolls, an avocado salad, eel + ikura + mackerel sashimi and shrimp/veggie tempura. Everything was great. 10/10 for Presentation!!! They even have alcohol for sale (TO GO). Definitely adding this spot to my list
Hopefully they return to dine-in service soon because if their TO GO looks/tastes this good I could only imagine how the experience is sitting inside the place enjoying the food.
The portions are huge and the food is delicious. Staff was super friendly. Definitely coming back next time I'm in DC!
chicken fried rice was a huge portion and delicious - some of the best i’ve had!
