Tucked in the middle of Dekalb Market Hall and it has some of the best handrolls in NY! The fish to rice ratio is pretty decent and you'll leave feeling satisfied! Try to catch the Mon-Fri 3-roll lunch special which comes with a miso soup or edamame for $21. (* A few of the options on the menu may cost a bit more, such as the Scallop, Snow crab, and Toro Scallion, but I think it's all worth checking out!) I ordered the Spicy Tuna, Yellowtail Scallion and my favorite: the Spicy Salmon Handroll! It is a standing bar only if you plan to dine there but it's a great option if you're looking for a quick solo bite before heading to Trader Joe's a few yards away! read more

Ehh. Fast food sushi to say the least and it's not cheap. $16 for a special crunchy sushi roll only 5 pieces. You can get much better at a restaurant. Service friendly but you have to stand unless you find a seat nearby. They don't have chairs. read more

Daigo Handroll Bar - Sushi Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I would hit this place up every time before going to Trader Joe's, and I would even stop by just for a bite if I'm in the general area. The sushi is fresh and comes out quickly, and the fish portions are amazing for the price and level of freshness. I usually get the spicy scallop rolls, and there are literally at least two to three giant scallops in each roll. You see more scallop than rice, and the rolls themselves are not small. At other places, you end up paying almost the same price for a scallop roll that is all mashed up with sauce and tempura flakes. The seared salmon rolls are also great if you like that torched, smoky flavor. Not many sushi spots offer torched options, and this place feels like a nice middle ground between a solid basic sushi spot and omakase-level fish. I think if you can tell the quality of the fish even when it's in a roll, you're doing something right. At a lot of generic sushi places, you can tell it's salmon, but it's hard to tell if it's actually good salmon. If it's not too busy, the staff is generally very friendly and will chat with you, which is a nice touch. Since this is a standing sushi bar, you can be in and out in about fifteen minutes, which is perfect if you're in a rush. read more

I went to Daigo Handroll Bar before a concert and I ordered an eel Avocado cut roll. The service was great and quick. The eel avocado roll tasted superb. I would recommend coming here for some delicious sushi if you happen to be shopping upstairs. The ambiance is laid back. I ate my sushi at the bar counter. I asked for spicy mayo and was provided with spicy mayo without extra charge. 10/10 sushi recommendation. read more

Stumbled upon this STANDING hand roll bar and I am so happy that I did! The fish was fresh and the service was great. I ordered 3 rolls and a miso soup. It was PACKED. They had a lot of solo standing eaters and a side table for families / friends. They have a lot of options to choose from when it comes to hand or cut rolls. I went with the yellowtail, scallop yuzu and spicy salmon. The yellowtail and spicy salmon were my favorite. The scallop one was okay, I've had better. I would love to try to blue crab hand roll next. Great spot for huge, fresh hand rolls in BK! read more

I ordered lunch here for pickup, the place is a bit difficult to find if you aren't familiar with the food hall as you'll have to go downstairs.

Daigo Handroll Bar - Hokkaido Scallop, Toro (Fatty Tuna), Avocado Cucumber hand roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Fresh, authentic sushi and handrolls with little wait time. Dekalb Market truly has something for everyone and if you're me, that includes Daigo Hand Roll Bar. As the name implies, there is a bar to sit at with chopsticks, plates and napkins ready for you. Staff is friendly as well. The yellowtail tuna roll with scallion is a must-try. Fresh fish, filling but won't leave you feeling bloated and a good price point. I appreciate how the rolls here are also served at traditional sushi temperature. This is a place you come back to, even if you want to try other vendors, because it's just so good! read more

First time at this small sushi chain located in the basement food hall of mall. Minimalistic sushi/roll options. You can choose between cut or roll. I chose all cuts for salmon avacado and mackerel rolls. Tasty sushi with good soy sauce, sliced ginger, and most likely horse radish wasabi. I'd eat here often next time. I like their aesthetic but there's no stools for dining booths which makes sense. Their food isn't meant for long eating periods. Recommend find seating in the open area. Definitely worth a try. read more

Daigo! I love this place and I remember when I first saw it at the newly opened Dekalb Market food hall back in 2017. Every time I'm in the vicinity I have to have a hand roll here. It's a very casual space, no tables or chairs -- you walk up, order your food to go or to stay, and if to stay you stand at one of the counter spaces. Your chef will prepare your rolls and hand them to you one by one as they're made! So fresh and delicious. My absolute favorites to order: -Miso soup (careful it's scalding hot and I've burned my tongue many a time) -Spicy tuna hand roll -Yellowtail scallion -Seared salmon with yuzu -Snow crab avocado What makes these hand rolls so incredible besides the quality of the fish is the nori. It must be imported because the taste and texture is top notch. Perfectly crisp and light, how nori should taste. Just get all the hand rolls... read more

I've had a quick work lunch at Daigo Handroll Bar several times over the past few weeks. It is located in DeKalb Market Hall, pretty close to the Trader Joe's side. The lunch special at its baseline is a little pricey, and there are a lot of price add-ons for particular rolls, which makes it a not cheap lunch. The service is really fast and fresh. The miso soup that comes with the lunch special is good, and the rolls are a good portion size. I do feel that the rice is not seasoned to my particular taste, but it's not bad. Overall, this is a good choice for a quick lunch in the area. I've been several times and do keep returning! read more

Daigo is a surprisingly solid sushi spot in Dekalb market. The fish tastes fresh and the rolls always satisfy. You stand at the countertop tables to dine, so you don't particularly feel like lingering around for too long, but it's a great little place for when you want something fresh and not too heavy. Prices are reasonable for good quality sushi and I haven't had a disappointing roll yet. Will definitely return next time I'm in the market and craving sushi! read more

It was extremely hard to find this hand roll bar in the market. I originally saw it on yelp and wanted to try it when I was working in the area, and I walked around for over half an hour before finding it. It's definitely quite hidden, in the middle of the market. I wish the market had a guide or map because there's too many different vendors squished together. Onto the food - they have a weekday lunch special. The two rolls plus a bottle of water was $20 so honestly the lunch special was still expensive but the hand rolls were delicious and it was a unique setup where each customer stands at the bar and eats as they are served. read more

My friend reports that the sushi was excellent. The service was extremely fast and super friendly. The prices were reasonable, they have a sushi bar, and there's plenty of seating in the dekalb Market Hall if your dining with someone else. All in all this place is a great dining choice. read more

Stopped in after shopping at the mall and will never return. The server was outright rude and couldn't even be bothered to bag my to-go order -- despite me clearly juggling multiple shopping bags. Instead, she tossed the bag onto the counter like helping a paying customer was an inconvenience. Got home and the order was wrong on top of it. Paid for spicy tuna and didn't get it -- but I did get an eyelash from whoever made the meal. Absolutely disgusting. read more

Daigo Handroll Bar - Eyelash roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

The service was horrible. One Asian woman was rude, insulting and disrespectful towards me while I was with my son, all before I could even take a bite of my food that I purchased. It began by me noticing that there were no more chairs available for my son and I to sit on so we can have our dinner. So I found chairs across the dining hall, two restaurants down and carried both chairs by myself, so me and my son could sit and eat at the table to this establishment. First I made sure my son sat down and then placed all our belongings by the chairs I brought over to sit on. We had just been clothes shopping for my son and wanted to eat a nice meal. I told my son to watch our stuff and my seat. I then walked over to order food at the register. While I was at the register ordering and paying for our food, two different adult grown men tried to take the seat I had brought over to sit on. My son later on informed me that the first man that tried to take the seat left because he told the man that his mom (me)was sitting there, then a second man came over to take the seat and my 11 year old son informed him too that the seat was taken, however the second man chose to ignore what my son said and stood sitting on the seat. I then returned and asked why was this man sitting in my seat that my son was watching over. The man gave me no trouble at all and was very apologetic, because he knew my son told him that the seat was taken. The man moved and I waited to enjoy my meal. The Asian women working there did not see my carry both chairs alone from the other side of the dining hall so me and my son could sit, nor did she know that my son had told the man that the seat was taken. All she seen was me ask the man why was he sitting in my seat... Another women at the cashier served me my soup but forgot to give me any utensils. I informed the Asian woman very nicely that I needed a spoon. She went off to go get a spoon, a moment later the cashier woman looked my way and I had told her that I needed a spoon, the spoon was for me that the Asian woman was getting so she wouldn't think that she was handing off the spoon to the wrong person.. The Asian woman thought I was talking to her a second time about the spoon and then slammed the spoon on the counter in front of me and my son!! I asked her "why did she do that and what was with all the attitude about" . She said "I was getting you the spoon" I explained to her I was not talking to her the second time about the spoon but to the other woman and that there was no reason for her to have an attitude with me or slam the spoon on the counter in front of me and my son' face.. She stood standing in front of me just staring at me at first, while I was busy getting the spoon so I can put in my soup. Still standing in front of me she then proceeded to harass me by trying to start an argument with me. Telling me ""that I was mean to the man" the same man that was informed that the seat was taken and still tried to take my seat that I had to physically carry over myself so I can sit on to eat!! Still standing in front of me, trying to provoke me as I sat with my son, I told her I was not mean to the man. As I was going to ignore her so I could enjoy my meal, she still stood standing in front of me trying to provoke an argument with me, standing in front of me just staring,saying out loud ""INTERESTING "" I asked her why was she talking to me, stop talking to me, I just want to enjoy my meal, and informed her to leave me alone. She finally started turning away but not before mentioning something about my son... I then asked her "wait what did you say about my son" mind you my son is an 11 year old little boy. She came back and told me ""that I was mean to my son"" trying to provoke an argument out of me, and continuing to harass me all before I even got a chance to take one bite of my food. She had an extreme attitude with me, was provoking me to argue, was insanely rude and disrespectful towards me infront of my son and caused a scene so bad that I could not eat nothing. My son was upset at how the woman was treating me!! She had absolutely no idea what me and my son discussed or spoke of at all. She had no idea that he was scared to tell the man again that the seat was taken, I had to assure he was ok and not to be nervous when speaking up to defend yourself. The women finally had got me upset, I lost my appetite, I informed her out loud that ""it was none of her business what me and my son spoke about"" her male coworkers seen what she was doing was wrong and pulled her away from standing in front of me..I then asked for a refund and that I did not want to eat there. The whole time this woman stood standing in front of me as to harass me on purpose, then after her coworkers pulled her away from standing in front of me she then followed me to the cashier and stood standing there staring at me like some little kid in JR highschool. I ignored her. The cashier was read more

I really liked this handroll bar. I like to try different spots and this may be close to the top of my list! I went when it wasn't crowded so the service was very fast. I got 2 handrolls and a water bottle $12 as a lunch special. Both the spicy tuna and seared salmon were delicious! There's a bar wrapped around the stand where you could stand and eat. It is clean and looks nice. Great for a quick bite or appetizer if you're making your way around the food hall! I highly recommend. read more

Came to Dekalb market just to try this spot. We went around 12pm on a Saturday and there were plenty of standing counter spots open. We ordered Toro, botan ebi, and scallop yuzu hand rolls which came out literally in 30 seconds. Every single one was excellent!! From freshness to flavor to the quality of the rice, and prices were very reasonable when considering that everything is a little overpriced in dekalb market. My personal favorite was the scallop yuzu but my bf really liked how well the shiso leaves went in the botan ebi. Would def come back! read more

We didn't head to City Point with the intention of eating at Daigo, but the food stall and menu were so inviting we decided to try a couple hand rolls to see what it was all about. Service was quick and friendly. I opted for the spicy salmon and the scallop with yuzu koshu. Both were perfectly executed with crunchy nori, fresh fish and an absolute explosion of flavors. Zero complaints. Coming from LA we eat a lot of hand rolls out there and Daigo rivaled some of the best I've had on the west coast. Definitely worth a try. read more

Rolls tasted super fresh and yummy- a bit smaller than I would've hoped- overall, I enjoyed my pricey hand-rolls. read more

Decent for the price. $9 for toro handroll and $7.5 for the scallop with yuzu. I say that is pretty damn affordable for premium ingredients. It was also fast service and if you go during lunch and spend more than $15, you get a free bottle of water or a miso soup. This place really knows how to do business. For taste, it was overall okay. It tasted fresh but it was missing some oomph to me, but if you're in the mood for something quick, this hits the spot. read more

There is standing go only for the bar area around the kitchen and once your roll/dish is completed you are handed goodness your indulge upon. Wish I'd tried this place sooner. I ordered the jumbo shrimp hand roll, the snow crab and veggie. While I only enjoyed the jumbo shrimp perhaps with an even more mature palate the other two could work out. read more

Picture this - you're a growing lad who has just walked 20 thousand steps. Hungry AF in downtown Brooklyn. You wander down some slippery stairs and almost eat shit. You find Daigo Handroll Bar in this slightly crowded food court. You order a spicy tuna roll, miso soup, and a coke to hold you over for the jaunt home. What you are given exceeds all expectations. The miso soup is scalding when it comes out but once it cools a little is great. The roll you are given is like heaven in your hand. The rice is still warm and seasoned to perfection. The tuna is the perfect consistency and tastes so fresh and yum. You take a bite and melt. The rest is a blur but I can't recommend it enough. Just hope there's a spot for you to sit. read more
