In Short – Broadway goes upscale at this long-standing Japanese spot popular with the quieter North Capitol Hill crowd. The sound system plays jazz amid modern, well-lit sushi and robata bars, and in the small, serene back dining room. Aoki's menu, with combination lunches and dinners (highlighting donburi, robata, sushi or sashimi), soup noodles and a few dozen uramaki (reversed sushi roll), has many options available all day and into the night.

great food + service

by d240i

the food was super. the garlic rice is great.

even though i'm not a sushi eater (as i had chicken teriyaki), but my out of town friend wanted to go there again as he went there with other friends not long ago (as it was a favorite place with this group of friends).

the service was timely. we didn't wait too long for the food to arrive (as we were there around 6:30 pm on thursday evening). the only downside is that when a plate is cleared, they're somewhat quick to take it away. there were a couple of times where we would let them know that we're not finished, but it didn't influence our thoughts on their service.

would recommend that place.

  • Pros: fast and courteous service
  • Cons: too quick to clear the table

Great food and service!

by toni56

Went to Aoki's up on Capitol Hill tonight. Was a bit worried about service after reading some of the reviews. It was for a birthday party and there were 8 of us. It was great. The service was fast, the staff was friendly and we had a great time.

In our group ... one is a vegan...a few others don't care for sushi, and 3 of us love sushi. There is enough of a selection on the menu that we were all more than satisfied and the sushi was nice and fresh!

I will definitely be going back for more!

Worst Service

by DanielleKW

If you are lucky and get the food you order than you could have a very good meal. I have eaten there several times but one time was unforgettably bad. I ordered my meal thinking it was one thing and I got another. The server was extremely rude and did not care. I found this surprising so I went to the Sushi Chef Manager. He was even more rude and did not care.

I was spending the day with my daughter and this lunch threw a very disappointing taste to the day.

  • Pros: Good location
  • Cons: Extremely poor service and lacking in care for the customers
