Manager wasn't particularly welcoming. Wait staff was excellent. Food was very good, well-priced, and varied. Great drinks menu. Has a nice buzz and ambiance yet we could still hear each other. Great option.

After living in Japan from r three years I find many good Japanese restaurants but none quite like those restaurants in Japan. Then I found Zeppelins in DC! I love the food, the service and the ambiance! Presentation was simply beautiful !

Excellent meal at Zeppelin! The sushi was fresh, the service was terrific and we had a wonderful evening! The extra dessert in honor of the 30th anniversary of our friendship was a very nice touch. Zeppelin is another reason for me to love the Shaw!
