Lavinia at Home

I have been in Akira Sushi Bistro several times and I’ve never had a bad experience – fish is always very fresh. The presentation is simple and minimalist, but special rolls are fun and portions are good size, all what I want. It’s located at 20035 Ashbrook Commons Plaza, Ste 176 in Ashburn, VA, tel.: (703) 723-6799.

Prices are very reasonable, great service and I will go back again; it’s my #1 choice for sushi in this area.

There are more than a dozen locations of Not Your Average Joe’s in the Boston area and Northern Virginia area and this restaurant is located at Lansdowne Town Center, 19307 Promenade Dr in Leesburg, Virginia, tel.: (571) 333-5637 with a nice small outdoor area. Service is usually good and the food is above average. Their bread is like a focaccia with great olive oil dipping mixture. I really like NYAJ’s Sangria and specials, and I usually order those. You can get seats along the windows and have a good spot for people watch. We’ve been a few times to NYAJ for lunch and we will go back soon again.
