Reviews
The salmon and the yellowtail handrolls were ok.
The train station has a huge bathroom problem with homeless in the stalls who smell horrific. I mean you go in and it is so incredibly bad you want to throw up. It’s like the third world.
Ordering is super convenient — just scan the QR code at any table in the food hall and they’ll deliver your sushi right to you. If you manage to grab a seat at the sushi counter, you can even watch the chefs prepare everything right in front of you.
It’s a busy spot (as expected inside a major train station), but that’s part of the energy. A steady mix of locals and travelers is always a good sign. Overall, it’s a great choice for quick, tasty, and convenient dining while waiting for your train.
We had a great and we really love how they didn’t rush us and delivered each hand roll individually as if we were in an omakase restaurant
We both tried each of the following:
To start a crab crispy rice which was
two scallops hand rolls…extremely delicious
Toro hand rolls….omg! My fav so delicious I ordered seconds
Then crab hand rolls…my husband ate 3
Then the chef saved the best for last the wagyu
My soul left my body and came back after that bite
The seaweed salad on the other hand didn’t hit the mark at all for me. I tried a few bites, but it was a still a no for me. Oh well, the Kani salad more than made up for it. So much so, I got the Kani salad again before the train ride back to DC.
If you want to grab a seat and have a proper meal at Yono, there are several seats at the counter, where you can watch the sushi chefs up close as they quickly make sushi rolls.
Yono has a quick casual, zen vibe that is a perfect fit for the Moyninhan Food Hall. The cherry blossom
Thank you for your response and for clarifying the seating policy. We appreciate the acknowledgment that this interaction could have been handled more carefully.
Even within policy, the way staff communicate with customers can make a significant difference. A paying customer politely asking to use available seating in the sushi area should be met with courtesy and guidance, rather than a quick “no.” For example, if a seat is available, the staff member could have offered the seat while explaining the sushi bar guidelines. This small adjustment in mannerisms — showing attentiveness, consideration, and willingness to accommodate when possible — would elevate the level of service and create a more welcoming experience for all guests.
We share this feedback publicly because we hope it encourages the team to refine their approach to customer interactions, ensuring the hospitality matches the quality of the food.
Review:
The food was lovely and prepared in a timely manner. However, I was disappointed with the courtesy shown by the young man at the register today, 11/28/25 at 5:29 PM. After I paid for my sushi and vegetable curry, I politely asked if it was okay for me to sit in their seating area. Instead of responding with kindness or consideration, he told me it was only for certain customers.
I hope management sees this and provides additional training to ensure a better level of customer service. His response showed no care or concern — he simply dismissed me with a quick “no.” Very disappointing service.
The stanchions out front by the cold case where pre-packaged sushi lived had a decent amount of people waiting to order/pay. It was a little confusing as there were folks standing by, making the line look longer than it was. I ordered the Miso Glazed Salmon Bowl & the Spicy Tuna Sushi Rolls, totaling about $34. He told me it would be a 12-15 minute wait. I hesitated, as I was tired from a long commute and quite hungry. I ended up making the order and paying. An awkward moment lingered as I stood there looking for the sushi to eat as I waited and the cashier looked at me (presumably waiting for me to move to the side to allow the next guest to pay and order). I asked, where is the sushi I just paid for? He said, oh, it’s in the bag. I asked if I could have it to eat while I waited. He said sure, and motioned me off to the side away from the cashier. I went off to the side and received the sushi, which I began to eat at the counter. It was decent, 6 pieces, each with half a pea sized dollop of spicy mayo, with a pea sized portion of wasabi and a decent amount of picked ginger in the corner of the container.
After I finished, I saw seating on the side in front of the staff preparing the sushi that I just consumed. There were several seats open, one with a small “reserved” card on it. I didn’t think much of it at that moment, just thought it was peculiar. I started putting down my various bags that I had, and a staff member kindly showed me how the seats slide out for better access, along with bag hooks underneath the counter. I thanked her and sat down waiting for my order. She said if I had any questions to please ask. Another gentleman came to say the same thing and asked if tap water was okay, I replied and said if they had sparkling, he said sure and returned with a cold bottle of San Pellegrino and a small glass. At this point I overheard someone walk up and tell the staff they had a reservation, and take a seat a few stools down from where I was sitting. While I waited for my food to be prepared, I took a look at the menu. Definitely had prices higher than I expected for a food hall establishment.
The gentleman who brought me the water then came back to say if I was planning to order anything, to which I said I already ordered and was waiting on a rice bowl, which another staff member happened to bring to me in a small bag right at that moment. The first man then told me that these seats were not for people who ordered at the front. I instantly felt quite uncomfortable and apologized, stating that there wasn’t any indication from the cashier or any other staff (or any signage) stating this. He just replied saying yea, sorry. But you can pay for the water. To which I did, as I was left no other choice. After that, I enjoyed my water while still seated – or tried to. I could feel the gentleman and the young woman staff members seemingly lingering around and watching me. It made me feel VERY uncomfortable and I ended up tethering my things before I had a chance to finish to sit across from the counter in the main food hall seating area. As soon as I got up the female staff member said thank you.
When I finally sat down to eat the rice bowl, it differed from what was shown on the menu with regard to the bowl and presentation, as well as portions. It was warm and such, the flavor was good, about what I would expect at the price point.
But the experience for the seating arrangement left a bad taste in my mouth. For a public food hall to have reserved seating at a small bar/counter, open to the main corridor leading into the very busy train hall, seems weird. I get being different and offering an experience, but it needs to be better communicated visually and by the staff.
