More information on Kaz Sushi Bistro

Amiable chef/owner Kazuhiro ("Kaz") Okochi opened his own place in this handsome townhouse, after having worked at Sushi-Ko for many years. Kaz's is said to be the best place for sushi in the Washington area, and aficionados vie for one of the six chairs at the bar to watch Kaz and his staff do their thing. Your dinner companions are likely to be Japanese men in Washington on business and young Washingtonians. Besides sushi, Kaz is known for his napoleon of sea trout and wonton skins, and for his bento boxes, offering exquisite tastings of pan-seared salmon, spicy broiled mussels, and the like. Kaz is one of few chefs in the area trained to handle tora fugu, the blowfish, which can be poisonous if not cleaned properly. The blowfish, if available, is served in winter. This is also the place to come for premium sakes and a large selection of teas. Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice.
