Sushi Taro dazzles with top-tier sushi, creative omakase, and an impressive atmosphere, making it a must-visit despite its upscale prices.
"Tucked above a CVS in Dupont, Sushi Taro is a pull-out-all-the-stops kind of a restaurant. The omakase counter tasting starts at $275 per person ($350 on Saturdays) with regular menu items including A5 wagyu beef and lobster. For more affordable options, there is a daily a la carte menu and special sushi lunch dishes. Happy hour is also back Tuesday-Friday from 5-7 p.m., with a la carte sushi and drinks 25 percent off." - Missy Frederick, Tierney Plumb
"The iconic Dupont sushi spot brought back its beloved weekday happy hour this spring with 25-percent discounts on sushi and drinks from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m." - Claudia Rosenbaum, Tierney Plumb, Vinciane Ngomsi
"Dupont’s beloved sushi bar lets tempura softies shine in a roll alongside spicy mayo ($18). Available for dine-in or pickup." - Tierney Plumb
"This local favorite may be housed in an odd location, but guests can expect à la carte and tastings that deliver." - Kevin Chau
"Sushi Taro's six-seat omakase counter is a real treasure." - Adele Chapin
