Best WLM Reviews
Stopped by Absolute Noodle and Sushi Bar on a weekend for a quick sushi fix, and it was a pretty average Asian spot. The decor is cute—casual with a mix of records on the wall and some Asian-inspired touches like lanterns. Service was fine—they were friendly but nothing special, just efficient. We had the pork bun, fire crunch roll, and poke donburi. The sushi and poke didn’t really stand out from the typical sushi fare but seemed fresh and tasted fine, the pork belly "slider" appetizer was nothing special and sounded better on paper than it tasted. It’s not obscenely expensive, but it’s not a steal either—it’s more about convenience as we were by the National Mall and were craving sushi for dinner. It’s a good no frills option if you’re nearby and craving sushi, but nothing to go out of your way for.
Delicious sushi! Will likely be back! The service is slow, but once you get an order in, food comes out quickly, but it’s challenging to get your server’s attention because they’re so busy! Took forever to get a check too. But the food is worth it. The sweet potato nigiri was next level (I didn’t even get a pic, it was that good… and I would have ordered more if we could get our server’s attention)!
Sushi was absolutely great! The taste is fresh, unpretentious and at the same time you could feel every ingredient, we equally admire and thank the cook unknown to us))) The waiter greeted us very friendly, quickly found us a table, took our order and brought it very quickly) The prices are very affordable!!! If we are in Washington again, we will definitely come again!!!
P.S. We ended up in that place quite by accident, as we were looking for somewhere to eat after a negative experience at the Momiji restaurant, which is located nearby.
Came here as a family of 4 with aps and mains it came out to $130, which i thought was decent .
Aps came out quick, mains came out shortly after.
The menu is pretty broad so I worried about the quality of flavor but everything was good.
Only down side would be the actual size of the restaurant, tight seatings between tables.
Over all great food and vibes.
Couldn’t get enough of their Yellowtail Nigiri. So so fresh and good. The shrimp dumplings which were more like shu mai were velvety and delicious, they come with a spicy chili oil.
I recently visited Absolute Noodle and Sushi Bar and had a delightful experience. I tried the Pho Beef Noodle Soup, which was excellent. The broth was rich and flavorful, and the beef was tender and perfectly cooked. It's a dish I'd definitely recommend.
The ambiance of the restaurant is quite interesting, adding to the overall experience. It's a spot worth visiting for its unique vibe and atmosphere. Additionally, the staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive, which made the dining experience even more enjoyable.
Incredible food, even my 11 year old loved it! First time having Donburi and now I want to return to try every kind on the menu. Highly recommend!
Absolutely horrible experience. We ordered the Thai lemongrass soup with thin rice noodles and fried chicken instead of roasted chicken, and some nigiri. The chicken came out very soggy I had to take it out, and the noodles were uncooked and sticky and broken at the same time. The waiterss did not ask about dietary restrictions and allergies, and came to find out this dish has peanuts after trying it . Extremely overpriced, for 2 soups, and 2 pieces of nigiri, the bill was $80. As a DC native, this was the worst restaurant I have ever been to in DC don’t recommend!
