Some restaurants become favorites because of a single unforgettable meal. Others earn that distinction over years of showing up for their community. For nearly 20 years, Kims' Yirasai has been doing just that.
After creating sushi and memories for longtime customers in the Westbard area, Yirasai recently began a new chapter at its Park Potomac location. The address may have changed, but the focus remains familiar: fresh sushi, thoughtful preparation and the welcoming experience that keeps diners returning.
Now, Kims' Yirasai has another reason to celebrate after being named Potomac City Lifestyle's Best Sushi Winner for 2026.
Sushi and sashimi take center stage on the menu, complemented by Japanese favorites including tempura and teriyaki. Guests can keep things classic with sashimi or a Sushi Combo, try the Super Spicy Crazy Roll or gather a group around the aptly named Potomac Boat. The Rainbow Roll and other familiar favorites offer approachable choices for diners exploring the menu.
At Yirasai, details matter. Fresh fish, seasoned rice, crisp vegetables and carefully selected accompaniments come together in dishes that allow individual ingredients to shine. Beyond sushi, selections such as Shrimp Teriyaki, Sushi & Tempura and Chirashi provide plenty of reasons to return.
Moving a restaurant after nearly two decades means bringing more than a menu. It means carrying relationships, traditions and memories into a new space. Longtime guests can continue those traditions in Park Potomac while a new community discovers Yirasai for itself.
Guests can stop in for lunch or dinner, plan a date night, order online or gather for a special occasion. Catering and private-party options are also available for celebrations and events.
Being named Best Sushi for 2026 celebrates the food and the community that has continued to gather around it. After nearly 20 years, Yirasai's tradition continues, one roll, one table and one memory at a time.
