Akasaka Japanese Restaurant

ALEXANDRIA. Sushi lovers adore this attractive, minimal restaurant, which fashions some of the area's best sushi. From simple California rolls to extravagant creations like the Rock 'n' Roll (eel, avocado, and flying-fish roe) or the Crunch Roll (tempura bits and tuna), the place constantly rates a "thumbs up" from sushi connoisseurs. Beverages include Japanese rice and plum wines, which add to the authentic experience. Folks who don't like sushi can enjoy hearty noodle dishes, chicken teriyaki, or seafood dumplings. Casual attire.
