This would have been a fantastic dinner except the moment we sat down the fire alarm was triggered and it persisted for our entire meal (45 minutes) despite staff repeatedly saying the fire department was on their way. We understood there wasn’t anything they could do in terms of the alarm but we were seated directly under the alarm so it was extremely loud and didn’t allow us to talk to each other. They didn’t offer to move us either even though we saw others ask for a new table and they were relocated to a quieter part of the restaurant. Very disappointing experience, especially since the food was great.
Reliable, Japanese Sushi restaurant with some creative rolls and nice Hibachi offerings. But the standout here is the Ramen and the varied selections. This is where Toryumon truly shines. I had to ding them a star as I found the quality of their sashimi to not quite be there, fresh but not as high quality as what I would expect. The service is exemplary, with highly attentive waitstaff and conscientious servers. Value was what you'd expect from a Foggy Bottom restaurant close to big law firms and the GW campus.
The sushi at this restaurant is flavorful but not very large in portion. I ordered the Omakase sushi and was not impressed. The sea urchin was not as good as I had hoped, and I think I would have enjoyed my meal more if I had chosen my own dishes instead of letting the sushi chef decide. The staff is attentive and the service is good. However, after receiving the bill for $200, I couldn't help but feel like I could have gotten a better meal for the same price at a different restaurant.
I recently visited Toryumon and had a fantastic sushi experience. The peaceful ambiance complemented the tasty dishes perfectly. The fish and rice were expertly prepared, and the special rolls were unique and flavorful. The staff was warm and accommodating, enhancing the overall dining experience. I highly recommend Toryumon to sushi lovers looking for a pleasant dining experience. I will definitely be returning for more delicious sushi and Japanese cuisine.

The Japanese cuisine at this restaurant is top-notch, with excellent service. Don't miss the Rock Shrimp Tempura and Chicken Katsu Don - both are outstanding choices.
The appetizers are great, the Ramen is well done. The sushi has shrunk substantially since the pandemic-tasty enough but about 1/3 less than before.
It felt like a young university vibe. The rolls were ok, the rice was dry and not white as I’ve had every where else. The ramen was good.
Good food excellent happy hour must have at least 50 words although really why? I mean good food says it all, right?
