I’ve never been somewhere where I couldn’t finish the sushi because it tasted bad, but this was it. The fish seemed fresh but the rolls were just not good. No one in my party finished their food. I would not recommend going here.

Always amazing the only issue seems to be walk-ins but then there are always openings on Opentable so doesn't make any sense. But best sushi place in town!

The dishes are “picture perfect”, excellent platting. The problem is, the portions are… small. Our salads could fit in the cup of your hand. I ordered the duck special which was 5-6 thin slices of duck breast with a glaze. That’s it! And this was the first sushi bar we have dined at where they do not serve wasabi or soy sauce with their rolls. Their drinks are nicely crafted cocktails — A+. I would not recommend for dinner. However, if you are looking for a drink and “light” dish date option (this has a fine dinning feel in a casual atmosphere), this would be a good choice. Be sure to sit at the sushi bar or outside (space and weather permitting) as the dinning table area is also tight.

The waitress told us that fresh fish only comes in on Thursdays. the floor manager confirmed that most of the fresh fish comes in on Thursdays but there’s also some on Mondays and Fridays. Not at all what I would expect from a sushi restaurant! I would hope fresh fish would come in every single day. Many of the items were out of stock because it was Wednesday as a waitress said. She said that tuna delivery usually last for two or three days! Whoops. When asked how much the seven course tasting menu was she said it was not expensive. By the way it is $175 per person. I consider that to be quite expensive for what it offered. Also pieces of sushi Nigiri were extremely small.

This was the second time here for my wife and me. Now, I normally don't venture out beyond the avocado, shrimp tempura, and asparagus rolls - raw fish really isn't my thing. That being said, I love everything I tried at Yume! From the A5 Wagyu roll to the butter miso scallop roll, it was one of the best meals I've had in my life. If you haven't tried Yume yet, make it your next date night!

The best sushi I have ever had. I have been to a lot of sushi restaurants around the United States so believe me when I say this is the best I have ever had. They have some very unique combinations or your can come up with your own. The serving staff is top notch. The drinks are so inventive. Only down side is trying to find a place to park so make sure to plan on some extra time to find parking.

Excellent sushi with lots of options. Definitely on the pricy side. The restaurant is very popular and the sushi bar was having trouble keeping up with the demand. We ended up waiting quite a while for our first order.

Chef Peter (AKA Saran) wasn't in, but his trained sushi chefs did not miss a beat. We are monthly regulars, only because we live in New Jersey and work only brings me to the DC Metro area once a month. Otherwise, I would dine here every weekend. As for the tastings, let's say all the selected and prepared fish and wagyu just melt in your mouth. The blends of sauces and salts just complement the cuts. Bravo and 5+ stars.

I really enjoy Yume but would enjoy it even more if the restaurant lowers the volume on the music it plays. I think portions are perfect sized and the rolls (including some of the specials) are priced well. The sauces on the rolls are all very tasty!

I was there for my anniversary with my wife . Food was too pricy for the quality. It was not a wow sushi for the price they charged. Unfortunately, after eating this food, I got terrible upset stomach and couldn’t even sleep last night. I’m sushi lover and eat sushi at least twice a week, so my upset stomach is pretty much related to the food quality.

Was a fun, trendy spot. The rolls looked great, and we were really happy with our drinks. I would say steer clear of the tasting menu. It was fun, but we felt like they stretched a bit to make the dishes “expensive” enough to justify the $150 per person cost. It seemed like they used things like truffle oil and foie gras on a lot of the pieces, which was a bit much for us. Bottom line: Skip the omakase tasting and just order off the regular menu.
