It is a small family business. The owner is so kind and friendly. The rolls I ordered were delicious. I would go again. While I wait for the order, there were many products to browse. They carry good Japanese drinks. Personally, I was super excited to see dango!
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.
The sushi is really fantastic. Be prepared to wait a bit if you are planning to order in person. So, it’s best to call ahead, as it’s a small shop with limited throughput. The sushi is great though.
Stopped by very randomly on a Saturday afternoon. All other stores/restraurants look half-dead, this place lit up and immediately knocked out of the park. The lady (owner?) was so passionate and helpful. After mopping the floor, she introduced me to their variety of miso from the fridge and suggested one that seems the best fit. They even have salted cherry blossom! What a nice surprise after a post-peak cherry blossom trip in DC! Lady reminded me of my mom/friendly neighbor back home - she rocks! They were done with the sushi orders for the day, but I will definitely stop by next time and try out other things from this hidden gem. On my way back home I kept thinking about this heartwarming shop and its lovely people. It has nothing to do with where you come from, what accent you carry, or what you have to offer. The store is there to connect people with food. And that's all that matters.
It's a cute grocery store + sushi take out. The owner is actually Japanese.
Such a sweet lady at the counter. She noticed I was looking for something and asked what. I said natto and she offered to call me the next day when they get their next shipment and hold onto some packs of it for me. I felt like I was back in Japan again with that level of hospitality. Also I was ecstatic when I was finally able to have some natto which is hard to find where I’m from.
Gem of a store with everything from beauty products, shelf stable staples, fresh produce, and made to order sushi. I will certainly be back!
Small cozy Japanese grocery store with Sushi carry out menu. Be aware that the store is open until 7pm, but you can only order sushi before 3:30pm. Good sushi but the portion is on the small side for some of the rolls.
We love stocking up on Japanese rice, soups, snacks & more at Hinata.It's almost like being in a family business in Japan, & the owner is always pleasant & helpful in either English or Japanese.I think it's her husband running the small sushi counter & there are customers (to go) whenever we shop.Parking at a reasonable rate (or even free) is in the city garage 2 doors away.We love this store!
It's always a lovely experience to shop here, and their sushi is as authentic as it gets.
