Konami is a Japanese restaurant located in the Washinton, DC suburb of Vienna, Virgina. Konami is visible from the busy Leesburg Pike but the access road to the restaurant is difficult to see in traffic. Konami has a good selection of sushi and other Japanese entrees.

The sushi selection is good but the rolls, while fresh, appeared to be assembled haphazardly. The pieces were cut into uneven sizes and the rolls were not uniformly shaped. The mirugai (always sushipilgrim's measure of a place) was firm and fresh. There were more scallions on the mackerel than I usually enjoy.

The three seaweed salad with ponzu was excellent though the portion size was probably too large. It could easily have been two salads.

Konami has a large dining room and seasonal outdoor seating. Come late because it is impossible to get to in traffic.
