Kumo Asian Bistro - Alexandria

I have been a frequent customer of Kumo for the past 12 years. During the Pandemic they only did carry out and delivery. This month I have visited them four times. Here are my observations: Service: AWESOME!!! They have really gone from outstanding to AWESOME! Food: OUTSTANDING! I don't work close to Kumo anymore, so I tried multiple sushi places and they all suck. Kumo has the best Sushi in Northern Virginia. I have become an addict to the their lunch menu. Check it out on their site, better yet, go there for lunch. You can get 3 high quality Sushi Rolls, a Miso soup or a Salad for $18.00. Ambiance: Nice super clean environment. Great place for Lunch or to take a date in the evening. I strongly recommend this great hidden gem.

What looks like your typical Americanized Japanese restaurant (and is inside of a strip mall) is actually a fantastic spot with a huge selection of options Tons of both classic and unique sushi roles, other Japanese, dishes, and a few dishes from some other Asian cuisines as well The service here is very fast, and the servers are very attentive I got a miso soup and a specialty sushi roll and it was all very delicious

This sushi is some of the best I've experienced in the DMV area, rivaling the top suburban sushi spots in California. I visited for lunch, and the service was prompt. I started with the Kaiju roll, which featured perfectly crispy and flavorful tempura. The fish was incredibly fresh. My dining companion and I left feeling completely satisfied and eager to return. The interior was also clean and inviting. I highly recommend this restaurant to any sushi enthusiast and their friends.

This was my second visit to Kumo, and I expected it to be empty, but to my surprise, that wasn't the case. It seems that this restaurant is a popular choice for sushi and other Asian dishes. Both the takeout area and the dining room were quite busy with customers.

Best sesame chicken I've ever had! The sushi is pretty good too! The service and food are fantastic! It can get crowded on the weekends. I definitely recommend it!
