Expect an average price of 60 dollars without any luxury and before going make sue you had dinner at home. The idea to make it pricy and exclusive is good if the quality of products and service is absolutely outstanding. Despite sushi, all other dishes we ordered were a disaster, poorly cooked, quality medium-low, and incredibly small portions. If you... more

Very rigid service, very poor sushi. Very over priced. I will never go back. Save you cash for a better sushi experience. more

It's hard to add to anything meaningful to the review "Very Unfortunate" with which I agree wholeheartedly. While there used to be a long line of people waiting outside Sushi Taro, now there is nobody queuing to get in - and rightly so. Nothing is left of what was one of my favorite restaurants in town. It used to have... more

Sushi Taro used to be one of my favorite restaurants in DC, but now I am unlikely to ever return. It used to have one of the best selections of sushi in DC, many other delicious Japanese dishes, and daily specials of unique items. They also had a long sushi bar, a few quasi-private rooms, some floor seating on tatami... more

Sushi Taro was recommended on some fold-out map I had, so I was hesitant but was richly rewarded. Many Japanese customers, always a good sign. We didn't order much sushi, but everything else on the menu was excellent. BBQ chicken gizzard? It was pretty good, and you can't find that just anywhere. Service was good. No complaints, I'd definitely go... more

We went based on reviews here, in spite of a rather negative opinion by the concierge at the Hilton (mostly because they don't always take reservations), and we found an excellent and very authentic Japanese restaurant. Although our concierge felt we should anticipate a long line, there was no wait at all at 7pm on a Thursday (although the sign... more
