Japanese

Omakase @ Barracks Row and Sushi Nakazawa top the list, both One Stars at $$$$. Perry's brings a James Beard Winner at a fraction of the price. Below them, a deep Damn Good bench: Michelin Selected rooms in Northwest DC and Georgetown, Bib Gourmands in Petworth and H Street, a Beard Semifinalist in Dupont Circle. DC's Japanese scene runs from sushi counters to ramen shops, and it holds up at every price point.
