Definitely have to agree with you there, better than any place in DC that I've had sushi.

Sushi Taro, FTW.
 
 Side note: They're yearly all-you-can-eat Cherry Blossom thing is on April 5th. Bring your asses.
Woof.

I'm going to second this recommendation. I've been going to Sushi Uni for nearly six years and it's unbelieveable.
 
 I've had one bad experience there in probably 100 visits, but I'll keep that to myself. It's never busy either.
 
 I highly recommend the mango salmon roll and the extreme picante roll.

two of my faves:
 
 Yosaku
 Murasaki (better prices at lunch)
 
 both in Tenleytown
 
 on MacArthur Boulevard, if you can get in, it's a small sushi bar and very popular: Kotobuki (upstairs) - cheap too!

Another for Sushi Taro.  That place is damn good.

once when i went to sushi taro, the lunch special was a fish head in a bowl of broth with a side of something that looked like dried intestines.  i tried sitting at their traditional japanese tables, and made it for about twenty minutes, before my legs cramped.  they actually started laughing at me when i had to stretch out all over the place.

I cannot believe that Kaz Sushi Bistro on I Street has not been mentioned on this thread.  The sushi preparations there blow everything else in the city out of the water:  tuna w/ black truffle & salmon w/ mango puree are 2 of my favorites.  Go often!

I've personally never really liked Sushi Taro. Sushi Ko has always been my favorite. Tako Grill up in bethesda is good most of the time if you're up that way.

for what it's worth, I do not recommend the new-ish sushi place next to Clyde's & the gallery place movie theatre.
 
 I've never had tasteless sushi before. bleh.
