“My husband and I stopped in for post Christmas shopping around 7:45 last night. We were the only ones in there and it made for a lovely, quiet dining experience. The staff was very friendly and helped us narrow down what we wanted to order.The menu wasn't humongous, which was nice, as in our experience most sushi restaurants have so much it makes choosing anything a battle. I also really liked that they offered half rolls of sushi instead of the whole rolls. It makes it a lot easier to try different things without filling up too much.I got the seaweed salad, half a ruby roll and the salmon sashimi. My husband ordered a REALLY spicy roll and a full crispy onion roll. We also got some of the drinks in the fridge at the front.Everything was really good and the food was served to us cafeteria style after about 15 minutes, with the plates and chopsticks etc. on a big tray. I liked how low key it felt, as neither of us were really in the mood for pomp and circumstance. It was only at the end of the meal once everything had been eaten that I wished I had taken a photo to post with this review.My husband raved about the spicy roll he got, as many places are a let down with their spice levels. He had tears running down his face and got the hiccups at the end of that roll and loved every second.My favorite was the salmon sashimi - very consistent mouth feel and great mild flavor. The ruby roll had a bit of heat too, but that was the ideal level of spice for me.Their drink selection was great too - definitely try the creamy melon soda and white peach black tea!We noticed they offered catering and grabbed a slip for it and the pricing is fantastic so we're definitely planning on coming back in February for our oldest daughter's birthday dinner.Long story short - if you're looking for good sushi, fair prices and a low key atmosphere don't sleep on Sashimi Express.“
“I was pleasantly surprised by this place. The sushi is incredible and their spicy fried rice is delicious. I was a little disappointed when I got home though because one of our rules was not in the box. But I called and they offered to replace it the next time I'm there. I got the hot mama and the golden tiger. 5/5 for both rolls“
“It was great, smaller and less formal (more comfortable for me anyway,) than others but I feel like the food is better, there’s Way More food: much more of the teppanyaki + soup & salad - drinks extra of course. We went for my daughter’s bday & they gave her ice cream with a candle in it and sang Happy Birthday.A very nice evening.“
“Last time I was at Pete's Teriyaki was in the late 1990's (way out on west Shaw Ave. near Pardini's, assuming it's the same people/business). They were amazing then, so I was more than a little excited when I saw this location on Herndon closer to home. I don't know how long they've been there but I'm sure glad I spotted it. I brought home some veggie tempura for the kids (they freakin' love veggie tempura) and some teriyaki chicken for myself. Great food, great price (which is saying a lot for most places nowadays). I will happily be back for more!“
“This place is less than 2 blocks from my house but I finally made it there yesterday for a lunch date with my wife. It exceeded all of my expectations.The low lighting and overcast day made for a great date vibe in the restaurant dining area.I'm not a big Sushi guy but the food was A+. And it's presentation was just as good as ots taste. 10 of 10 we will be back“
