Review
Douzo (pronounced Doe-zoe) is the hip newcomer to the Boston sushi
scene. The atmosphere is very urban and cool, with an Japanese
inspired open dining room with high ceilings and linear designs.
The space includes both a sushi bar and an full service bar. Douzo
received some nice press after it introduced a "Matsu-sake" in honor of
Red Sox pitcher Daisuke Matsuzaka. The menu is contemporary take on
Japanese fare, offering a wide array of sushi and sashimi, as well as
some nice vegetable, noodle, and meat dishes. I tried a sampler
platter, comprised of some phenomenal yellow-tail sashimi accompanied by
a sampling of tasty tuna and shrimp sushi rolls. In addition, the
platter was comprised of a fresh Ginger Salad, a succulent sampling of
Chicken Teriyaki, and a serving of Vegetable Tempura. I thoroughly
enjoyed each serving, and the sashimi was some of the best in the area.
The service was very friendly, knowledgeable, and well paced. The
price tag is about on par with other high end sushi spots, but the lunch
menu looked to be an especially good bargain. Douzo is only about
a half block from Back Bay station, making it easily accessible by the T
and commuter rail. Overall, I was very impressed and will surely
return soon.. -Mike |
