RAKU Asian Dinning - Bethesda

Atmosphere was nice and cozy. Food was good, but not better than most sushi places in MoCo.

This place is always packed! Good quality and fast service. The shrimp tempura was my favorite. A sushi staple in Bethesda!

Very overcrowded, small hostess stand. Sushi is one of the best in Bethesda, outside seating better than sitting inside. Interesting selection of beers. Mostly Japanese imports. I like the variety of menu options and they offer cooked alternative as well as vegan choices. A very healthy way of eating if your overweight. Friendly wait staff and very lively and popular. Tables are small but a great hangout for teens and older couples as well. Overall I enjoyed eating

Salmon and green apple appetizer is amazing and one of the most unique tastes I?ve ever had. Ok pricing but very tasty

My review is for the overall experience and the quality and taste of their sushi rolls. Overall the dining experience was good but the sushi was a bit on the mushy side and the flavors were considerably lacking. I hate sounding harsh because the employees were attentive and really nice.
