Cafe Japone, Washington DC

The lights are dim and the sushi chefs are laid-back at this combo restaurant and karaoke bar. Healthy portions of fresh sashimi and sushi are hand-rolled within minutes of ordering. Spicy tuna, crab and eel are some of the more delectable options and are served with generous amounts of ginger and wasabi. Diners can also choose from a selection of salads and rice entrees. On most nights, you can watch brave souls attempt to sing karaoke to tunes by Annie Lennox or the latest Japanese pop star.
