I'm super shocked that I've somehow never reviewed Buredo yet because it's hands down one of my favourite go-to places in Dupont! I absolutely adore the Sofie as evident by it being in every single photo at least once.
I've had a few of the other sushi burritos at this point because friends and I will split two half and half to try the others out, but nothing beats the Sofie. It wins every single time. It's just the combination of textures and taste that is so satisfying no matter what.
Recently brought one of my childhood best friend's from my hometown here. We split the Sofie and a Pai Mei together and got miso soup (one container is more than enough for two people, did not realise this and got two) too. She got a second Sofie for later before we left.
If you can't tell by now I'm super recommending the Sofie! Beatrix and Pai Mei are good too but, well, Sofie for sure if you're only getting a single burrito and not sharing it.
Really good sushi burritos! I love that they have two options for vegetarians, however I only gave it 4 stars because it is kind of bland as compared to Hai Street. Service was fast and nice.
Went here for the first time today and was pleasantly surprised. I wish there was more customization available but the premed selections can have subtractions, additions and/or substitutions (at a cost). I had the Gogo burrito without the tempura crunch and added some spicy mayo. Not gonna lie, it was really good and the coconut crema was a nice addition. The sweetness was a good contrast to the spicy mayo. I think the "spicy tuna" could have had more actual spice to it but I can understand the need to appeal to the masses and being able to add some Sriracha isn't that much of a deal if its not hot enough for you. They also have real sugar sodas available which is a nice option.
This sushi restaurant is one of those food fads that lives up to the hype. I've been to this location several times and the quality is super consistent. It also doesn't have the crazy lines like the 14th & I St. location has from tourists. My personal favorites are the Beatrix and Crazy88 rolls!
I came to buredo to get a quick bite to eat after work and was not disappointed. There was no line when I arrived at 630pm, so I stood around for a minute to decide what to get. One thing that's weird about this place is they don't have a menu on the wall, luckily they have paper menus along where you would wait in line.
On to the food. I ordered the Beatrix which included yellow fin tuna and salmon sashimi, cucumber, pickled cabbage, green onion, tempura crunch, and unagi sauce. It came out to $12.93 after tax which was well worth it for the amount of fish and how filling it was.

Had to stop by to check what the hype was all about. If you are a sushi snob you will like their place. Great costumer and great flavors. Come hungry
Prefacing this review by saying that I'm not a big sushi fan - I can't eat fish - but that being said, I wanted to give Buredo a try since they have a vegetarian and as well as a pork option. I ended up going with the "Crazy," which was good. All ingredients were super fresh and the restaurant is very clean (which I appreciate). Again, not being a big sushi fan, not exactly my cup of tea, but I can totally see how those who are fans would love this spot.
The Beatrix is hands down the best! But must try them for yourself ☺ online ordering is key for busy hours.
I had never seen or heard of this place before, but I am sure glad we took the opportunity to eat here. I am a huge fan of sushi and burritos and what better way to have the best of both world's! The ingredients were fresh and I love the fact that it is prepared right there in front of you. I would like to see more variety of cooked seafood options or the classic California roll, or Crab roll. However, this was an unexpected treat and a place I will visit when in DC again!
Huge burrito sized sushi rolls. They're pretty good and the ingredients have always been fresh. They give you a lot of fish. You'll either really like it or not. If the burrito sized sushi roll isnt your thing, I've also had it salad style and it was just as tasty.
