A great variety of some of the freshest sushi I have ever had. The weekday all you can eat buffet is a great bargain, but you need to get there early for a seat.
Rivka GDecember 1, 2013I'm from Brooklyn, nyc and this was hands down the best sushi I've ever had.. the waitresses gave us a bunch of free appetizers which was awesome too. can't wait to come back here!
You can't go wrong with anything on the menu! They have a buffet for lunch & if you can sit at the sushi counter for dinner you have it made. Be ready for a wait because this place is so popular.
Luc VJanuary 1, 2016Everything! So many creative rolls and fantastic traditional sushi. The prices are also some of the best and they even come around and give random snacks to nosh on while you wait
Donna LuJuly 21, 2016There is a reason why there is so many pictures for this place. BEST place for sushi. Can't beat the price or the quality. I cannot go anywhere else. Rice to seafood ratio is like 1:2.- Steve LarsonAugust 29, 2019Tried the sushi lunch buffet today, it was fantastic. All the food was fresh and plentiful, many choices. Buffet, water and tip was $20 cash, with credit card add $2.
Masha DeeSeptember 14, 2013The wait is absolutely worth it!! :D The BEST sushi indeed! And don't believe people who knows a better sushi place - they don't know what they're talking about until they try Yuraku :)
Try the Lobster - Complimentary! I guess they saw me taking pics and they brought it out to us! Although I couldn't eat, I was told very tender, sweet, soft, and tasty.
Eduardo M. EtienneNovember 25, 2015Excellent sushi. Met the owner Sonny and I highly recommend this restaurant. Great service.
Fanny YangMay 21, 2014The sunomono salad and nabe udon in ON POINT. Great taste for a great price. Many options - sushi, sashimi, salads, soups, grilled meats, etc.- Try the Assorted Sushi And Sashimi Platter - My biggest dilemma is how to put it into a square shot! Otherwise, it's been always tasty!!! Love it!!
Carol EbilaneSeptember 28, 2012Calamari roll and Three Amigo rolls were my absolute favorite! Depending on their mood, they'll go around and randomly give you free samples of some various sushi (about 2 pieces only).
Best sushi in the area. Freshest fish, best prices. Try the tuna fiesta salad, the what a match roll, and the miso-glazed, broiled Chilean sea bass. Trust the chefs, they are excellent.
Laura LenociSeptember 2, 2012Wait is long but worth it. Salmon nachos are out of this world. So was the spicy honey white tuna. Sushi was so fresh. Stuffed ourselves to the gills.
DaudiJune 29, 2016Would recommend the sushi + sashimi combo, all very fresh. Comes with tasty spicy tuna roll.
Jessica LakeJuly 16, 2015The best sushi in Montgomery County. Grade A and not hatefully expensive. Lunch buffet is a killer deal.- Muriel HDecember 19, 2013Lunch at Yuraku was amazing! They have some new rolls that are beyond delish! They aim to please 😄
Hanna TJune 21, 2012The lunch buffet is awesome. Only $12.95 and it goes til 3 PM. Lots of good sushi and other stuff, like tempura! :)
Behrad EatsMarch 23, 2014Great sushi, come here hungry and get the Chef's Special Sushi & Sashimi Combo!
Kim UmbargerDecember 31, 2013The lunch buffet is amazing! I loved the roll with strawberries on the top.
Kimberly C.June 29, 2013The Shrimp Tempura = yummy. Comes w/California Roll, Salad, Miso & we added Ikura. Everything was great, I highly recommend this place.
Stefanie HoltMay 9, 2016Great food and atmosphere!!! Very nice size rolls and super nice customer service!!
Tuna Mountain. Order this! A softball of spicy tuna surrounded by lightly seared tuna w an amazing peanut sauce. Just wow.
Luis MirantesApril 21, 2011Possibly the best sushi in the DC area. Great service, great food, great atmosphere. Mr. Lee and Sonny are top notch hosts.
Paul N MelAugust 7, 2010Fun place, great service! The fish is average for sashimi grade. FAR from authentic Ginza style sushi, what do you expect for Germantown, MD? Overall 5/10 SPAM Slices. Lots of other great dishes.- Try the Uni - Unilicious!!! Sport poor lighting. Even if no egg yolk, it was milky and buttery! So so so fresh!!!!
Tuna tartar and flying dragon roll are a perfect combo for two.- Try the Otoro - My lucky day today! My fave Otoro was available.
Sheryl ADecember 19, 2010Better make reservations on weekends or expect to wait for more than an hour for a table. It's sooo worth the wait though. Yuraku (301) 515-7448
Michelle MillerDecember 1, 2011Spicy rolls are actually spicy, which is nice. Fish was very fresh, but restaurant was filled with fruit flies. : /
Love the Three Amigos Roll...it's one of the specials and Volcano Roll is good too!
Get chummy with the waitresses. You can order off their special off menu menu.
