Sushi Toro — Restaurant in North Bethesda

Got delivery. I ordered the fatty tuna, fatty salmon, white tuna, all as sashimi, and peach oolong tea as well as edamame. I asked for lemon and soy sauce served in a condiment cup vs getting a couple of pockets (can't really dip when it's a packet). Also asked for the peach oolong to be served with ice.

The peach oolong tea came in a can. They could've made the very minimal effort to put into a drink cup to at least appear better for the price. I got a few anorexically thin slices of lemon in a condiment cup... sooo they have condiment cups... but they just gave me a few packets of soy sauce... fortunately I had a leftover condiment cup from Momiji so used scissors to empty the packets into it (they didn't have a spot to easily tear) since that was too difficult for Sushi Taro to figure out. The fatty salmon was okay. Didn't taste fishy but didn't taste great. Also appeared they seared one side of it, which was not noted in the description. I get sashimi for it to be raw, not seared. Further... I love tuna but both the fatty tuna and white were distinctly fishy. Edamame is hard to mess up. Fortunately they didn't so much. Could've used salt. I just salted it myself. Won't order again nor visit this place. Over $60 for a trash meal. Google hasn't been letting me upload photos for some reason but once it does, I will...

Our experience at Sushi Toro was incredible. I had seen some of the beautiful rolls that people had taken pictures of in the Google reviews and set my heart on trying a few. The restaurant itself is warm, clean and inviting, the staff is so lovely and welcoming. Now the Sushi... It's OUT OF THIS WORLD!!! Everything we had was delicious, fresh and so beautifully presented you almost didn't want to eat it. Exactly as it should be. Upon learning that one of the rolls I had wanted to try wasn't available because it was a special that they only made once a week, I was a tad disappointed but not really because there was so many other amazing rolls that I would just come back at a later date for that one. Well , the sushi chef would have none of my being disappointed and put one together for me... The MATCHA roll was exactly as yummy as I had hoped. Thank you for the lovely hospitality and delicious sushi. We will be back...

Just visited Japan for 2.5 weeks in June 2023. No idea why this has such high marks - would never recommend coming here. They put hot food in the carryout bag with sushi - all sushi was warm to room temp when eaten. Much of the fish was slimy. One item was completely rotten and could not be eaten (tasted like sewer). Gyoza tasted like a Chinese buffet dumpling - heavy, solid filling and strong oil flavor - not Japanese style gyoza. The sushi rice was not properly prepared and pieces could not be picked up without sticking to each other and falling apart. Meal was not edible. We had to throw half of it away after attempting to get through it. With 5 people working on a sushi line they should know their product and do a taste or smell test before serving. I do hope we are not vomiting later as one of my children could smell the off fish before...
