Free mochi or just regular ice cream at the end. Decent amount of parking outside or park at the nearby structure. The inside is trendy looking, with plenty of TVs showing sporting events so that you don’t have to talk to anyone at the table. Servers here seemed very nice, but the place was somewhat understaffed so it could be a while before you get your servers attention. The sushi itself was very good - it seemed fresh and I didn’t get sick afterwards which I always fear when I stuff myself with copious amounts of raw food. I’ve been to other spots where it feels like they have a piece of fish over a brick of rice (okay, maybe that is a slight exaggeration), but Sushi Damu has a great sushi to rice ratio. I’ll give them props for using not too much rice on their sushi. I 100% DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYONE!įirst there was Midori Sushi, then there was… about 1000 other AYCE sushi spots. I honestly wish we didn’t have to pay for this meal because this is an absolute waste of $ 60 for both of us. This is definitely the worst sushi experience ever, and my husband and I both left this place unsatisfied and worrisome. Regardless, I believe this is the last time we will ever visit this place. As I am writing this review, I cannot stop thinking about that one piece of uni sushi, and the possibility of getting food poisoning. I ABSOLUTELY REGRETTED MY DECISION! The uni was not fresh and has a weird after taste. I should have not eaten it, but being my uni-loving courageous self, I gave it the benefit of the doubt and ate a piece. The uni was darker brown than usual, and has even darker brown blotches. This is an all you can eat sushi place, and I honestly do not expect them to serve me top grade uni, but at least serve uni that looks clean and safe to eat? Well, this is definitely not the case. The absolute worst has to be the uni sushi. The agedashi tofu actually tasted decent and was hot, but for some odd reasons, they used thinly sliced tofu instead of chunks. They can’t mess up their cooked rolls that are supposedly made to order right? WRONG! The spider roll and salmon skin hand rolls were soggy and greasy. Since we were still hungry after our less than half round of sushi, we decided to order some cooked rolls/hand rolls, other appetizers, and a wee bit more sushi. That just blew my mind! The chefs just had to follow the paper and make our nigiri sushi, and we even made it easy because no rolls were ordered on the paper yet, but nope, they still got the order wrong. ![]() Besides the quality of the food, they also messed up our order and didn’t give us more than half the food listed on it. The rice was also not squeeze tightly, and every time we picked up a sushi, it just fell apart. The rice was bigger than usual and warm, making all the fish on top warm as well. Next, our first round of sushi came, and they were just as horrible. The only good thing in this entire meal is their damu wontons, which were fresh, hot, and delicious. Shrimp tempura was cold and soggy, and just very unappetizing. The mussels were not «attached» to the shells either, which made me feel slightly uneasy, like there was a possibility that they were reusing the shells. The baked mussels was not hot at all, almost borderline cold. The appetizers came first, which included baked mussels, shrimp tempura, and damu wontons. We were starving, so we ordered a bunch of food. My husband and I actually had to take turn wiping the table ourselves as the waitress stood there and waited to get our drinks order. When we got to the table, we noticed that the table was completely wet, with our order paper half soaked and unusable. Came in after the lunch rush, there was a short line, but we got seated like 10 mins later. So bad that I don’t think we will ever come back in the future. ![]() I WISH I COULD GIVE THIS PLACE A ZERO OR EVEN A NEGATIVE STAR, BUT DAMN YOU Unilocal! This place used to be my hubby and my favorite sushi place, but today, it was exceptionally bad.
