The happy hour is legit. It’s $2 per sushi, which is actually 2 pieces so it’s still $1 don’t let the menus confuse. The fish is honestly some of the more fresh fish I’ve had for sushi. Also with $4 house saki this is a can’t miss chill happy hour in DC Adams Morgan area
Stepping down into Tono, I'm greeted by a friendly, "Hello!" and a calm atmosphere. Nice, simple decor on the walls, an old carpet attests to the longevity of this place. There's a few parties here, but not too many. We're early for dinner and it's a weekday. The two of us take our seats, around 5:45 and begin to order from the menu. Happy hour lasts from 5 to 7:30, more than enough time for us to devour about 60 pieces of sushi at $1 apiece. The pieces are modest, but adorned with a generous helping of fish. The salmon is just the right amount of fatty, the yellowtail fresh and delicate. I tried the Anago and marinated mackerel, and loved both.
The Tamago is, without a doubt the absolute best I've ever had at any sushi restaurant.
Service was quick and attentive. Different generations of a family hard at work. We eventually waddled out a little after 7, bellies full and palates satisfied, joining the throngs of diners enjoying the Woodley Park summer evening.
We are lucky to live so close to such a good sushi spot, and which offers great deals through its happy hour. I would recommend that you come on a weekday or earlier in the hour to avoid a wait, as I'd imagine the place gets full on a prime night.
I was craving sushi… I stumbled to this place and I was pleasantly surprised.
The food is good. I had a miso soup, the dragon roll, and several nigiri pieces (salmon, tuna, squid, and shrimp)
Oh I was so happy!
