Go no further for the best sushi in Bethesda. No gimmicky rolls with over-powering toppings or sauces, or outrageously large rolls that no one can swallow. Just good old authentic Japanese cuisine freshly made to order. Hinata is about well- balanced (aka not overly seasoned) sushi rice and really fresh fish made with care. It’s about celebrating one’s pride of one’s 出身 and share that love. If you want a real taste of Japan in Bethesda, this is the place to go. You can also pick up some amazing Japanese snacks while you’re there!

I REALLY wanted to try this place! I live around the corner and tried to get sushi carry out 3 times. They either didn’t answer the phone or stopped serving sushi 2 hours before closing. The last time I went in and they had stopped taking orders about 2.5 hours before closing, they told me to call. But when I did call (several times) no one answered. They said they are too busy! If you have been a customer for part of their 30 years, they probably treat you better, but for us newcomers, forget it. Such a hassle and I heard them say that they don’t want/need new customers. ♀️

I went in to order the daily sushi special. There was no wait, so it took around 15 minutes to prepare. There’s enough groceries, snacks, and daily goods to shop for while you wait. All of the workers were very nice. The daily special was reasonably priced ($16 for about 20 pieces) and tasted better than most sushi places in DC.

Fresh fish and super kind family run spot! Sushi carryout takes 20-30 minutes so call ahead.

We were too anxious to eat the sashimi and forgot to take a photos. Every piece of sashimi were super fresh and delicious. We ordered sashimi deluxe and added scallops and another fish as extra. Highly recommend the scallop sashimi, creamy! Will come back to order more.

We get sashimi fish here in blocks. Best fish ever. We routinely spend more than 100 when we go from assundries. It is better than maruichi, but smaller selection of things. Thus has been our goto for groceries not found in hmart for 7 or more years. Price is based on grocery bill, not cost of sushi, which is very affordable and great. Call ahead for takeout sushi
