Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Doko offers an exceptional dining experience with "amazing service" and "impeccable food." The sushi, especially the nigiri and sashimi, is "expertly prepared" and fresh. It's a cozy spot with a vibrant atmosphere, though "a bit noisy." The tasting menu and sake selection are "highly recommended." A must-visit for sushi lovers!

    Excellent food and excellent service. A beautiful restaurant. Only negative is it’s very loud but that is part of the fun too. Sushi was magnificent.

    Doko delivers an exceptional dining experience with a well-thought-out menu that showcases creativity and quality. The service was attentive and friendly, enhancing an already great atmosphere. Highlights included the spicy tuna—packed with flavor and perfectly balanced—and the fresh, expertly prepared sashimi. Be sure to sample their excellent selection of sake before moving on to dessert. The Basque cheesecake was a standout, rich and smooth finish. Highly recommend for a night out with great food, drinks, and ambiance.

    Excellent service and ambiance. Food is excellent. Every dish we ordered was delicious with every bite. The portions are small considering the stiff price, especially the crudo and sashimi.
