An expanding D.C.-area sushi restaurant is planning to open in Pentagon City later this year.
Takumi hopes to open this summer at 11oo S. Hayes Street, in the retail bay where Rosa Mexicano closed last year. The Columbia, Md.-based restaurant is planning four new locations this year, including another outpost in Tysons Corner.
It aims to bring a ‘unique twist’ on sushi
- The restaurant’s expansive sushi menu in Maryland features raw appetizers, sashimi, maki rolls, udon noodles and fried rice.
- Pentagon City’s offerings will be slightly different, but the restaurant plans to receive fresh fish shipments from Japan twice per week, Marketing Director Matt Hall told ARLnow.
- “There [are] a lot of sushi restaurants in the area, and so we want to stand out from them,” Hall said. “We are hoping to bring a unique twist on the sushi experience to this location.”
It will open next to Tous les Jours
- Takumi’s new space will be able to accommodate between 160 and 180 customers.
- A meal at the forthcoming location should average between $30 and $50 per person, Hall said.
