Business Summary what's this?
For four star Japanese, try Murasaki in Washington. This is a great place. Check out this affordable place in the Upper Nw area. It's known for its sushi. This place features outdoor dining.

This is one of my favorite Japanese restaurants in town! They have an awesome selection of food and many items you will not find at other Japanese restaurants. Definitely worth checking out!
