    I thought the sushi scene in Bethesda was pretty good and then these guys came along and definitely raised the bar substantially. Inventive and incredibly fresh flavors and combinations. Great attention to detail.

    Overpriced and overrated. Sushi was bland with mushy rice, ramen was lukewarm and flavorless. Service felt annoyed and inattentive. Definitely better spots in Clear Lake—wouldn’t come back.

    Excellent newish Japanese restaurant with friendly servers and excellent Japanese food from sushi to other dishes. Their seaweed salad is the best, and I really like their salmon skin hand roll ( not on menu; you have to ask). Highly recommended.

    I went to this spot with my mom and sister. It may arguably be in my top three of the best combination of excellent sushi, really great service and the kind of warm, non-pretentious atmosphere that I prefer.

    “I had a fantastic experience at Takumi in Bethesda, and I especially want to recognize Brandon, the bartender/manager. He was incredibly welcoming, attentive, and clearly takes pride in the service and atmosphere. Eileen and Ryan were extremely welcoming and so knowledgeable about the menu! I also was greeted with Linda who was such a humble persons she shared her experience about her heritage and upbringing which I found so inspiring. The beef ramen was outstanding, and the spring rolls, avocado salad, and dumplings were all fresh and delicious. Brandon also crafted an amazing lychee martini that was absolutely phenomenal. It’s rare to find a bar manager and a warmhearted staff that was so hands-on and genuinely caring about guests. I’ll definitely be coming back! I highly recommend Takumi to anyone in the area.”
