Café MoZU

Sushi, sashimi and other Asian-inspired fare dominate the menu at this swanky dining room in the Mandarin Oriental Hotel. The clean, contemporary space, designed by Tony Chi, offers what may just be some of DC's most amazing views of the Washington Channel and Tidal Basin, making MoZU a great choice for a romantic evening out. Among the more provocative highlights from the menu are crispy wild salmon with fingerling potatoes, braised buffalo rib with yam puree and goat cheese polenta, and a daily bento box that features sushi, hamachi sashimi and MoZU rolls hand-selected by the chef.
