We visited our favorite sushi restaurant on Long Island tonight--one of the places on our regular dining roster that we easily frequent at least once a week. As soon as we walked in, we were warmly greeted by Melinda, one of our favorite waitresses, and were seated right away. May, who was also working tonight, promptly came over to take our order. She politely asked if we needed menus, but I declined since we already knew exactly what we wanted. We've had this same exchange with May quite a few times during our recent visits. We ordered our usual: the Sushi for Two, which comes with two specialty rolls and 18 pieces of sushi. Tonight we chose the Dozo Dozo and the Futomaki Special rolls. The meal also comes with either soup or salad, and tonight we both chose the soup. That's how much we love this dish. We had just returned from a two-week trip to South Florida this past Saturday, and the very next day--Sunday--we came here and ordered the exact same meal. And here we are again tonight doing the same. This restaurant consistently serves some of the freshest, premium-quality fish around. Tonight's 18 pieces included bluefin tuna, O-toro, king salmon, scallops, sea bass, red snapper, fluke, yellowtail, and Spanish mackerel. Every piece was tender and incredibly fresh. Yes, the price reflects the quality--but you absolutely get what you pay for. In my experience, there are not many sushi restaurants on Long Island that consistently serve fish of this caliber. We left once again completely satisfied, which is exactly why this place remains one of our weekly go-to spots. read more

Ordered the lunch special $18 for 4 rolls. Pumped to eat after the gym! I opened the bag and see only two trays. See pictures attached. I'm confused. Did I not pay for 4 rolls? I opened the lid and yeah, it's 4 different types of rolls with 4 pieces of each roll. So basically, 16 pieces which is 2 complete rolls. Did I just get played? Since when was a roll 4 pieces? I look at the yelp pictures and someone else had a take out sushi box with 2 rolls (6 pieces per roll) in there so 12 total. Unless it's 3 rolls since 4 pieces constitute a roll. Technically the definition of a roll is vague since it doesn't tell you the exact amount of pieces but I've eaten at so many sushi places and saw the yelp Pic so this was a bummer. I debated on this place vs others. Now I question if this is a Long Island thing or this place only thing since other sushi spots nearby also have a lunch special deal of $15 for 3 rolls or something similar. Unfortunately, minus 1 star for being different than the normal? Suggestion for them to ensure customers are aware? Sorry I usually don't discount a star for this but I was quite disappointed by my serving size. As for the sushi, it was pretty good. No complaints about taste, texture, quality and packaging. Loved the rice to filling ratio. The salmon was fatty. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Restaurant looked very clean too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Order was made on time. Have I had better? Yeah, in Japan and surprisingly in Houston. How is this quality compared to other lunch specials? Pretty good and better than a few others. Would I be willing to pay this price? Yeah, if I knew I was getting into. Just a tad disappointed with the price for value of my lunch since I would've ordered differently aka more if I knew I wasn't getting 4 complete rolls. read more

Hidden gem in Syosset near dirty taco, taking on hand rolls as their speciality. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's small and dim in here but provides great ambiance.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food was very fresh and delicious and the service was fast.

I just had a great experience here! So much so that I went back in the same week! The staff was super friendly and the food came out quickly.

I recommend the crispy spicy tuna or crispy spicy yellowtail, SO good! read more

Great service, extremely friendly and super attentive. My Omakase,was everything I hoped for and thoroughly explained.The fish was the most perfect temperature and the taste of each plate served was amazing. I don't eat eggs and I actually devoured the egg tasting. My guest enjoyed their soup and the sake was lovely. We left a cell and when we returned the restaurant was closed but the gentleman host was in the lot and ran up to assist us in retrieving the cell phone. I really enjoyed my meal read more

Service was top notch . Food was delicious. I came here for the omakase experience for $120. - @ 15 course deal. And well worth it! I'm not a fan of ikura. However, they made it super tasty alongside the uni..I'm so speechless. The best one I had tasted was the Toro w uni. And Toro w something else. Sorry I can't remember I was too bz stuffing my face. One would think 15 pieces of sush/ sashimi i? That's not filling! . however.... and I say this lightly.... I was super stuffed by the end of my meal. -no I was super stuffed in the middle fo my meal that I requested for less rice on my.sushi pieces. No need to trek to the city for good omakase. Dozo dozo is the place to satisfy that craving. By far theee best I've ever had! Needless to say. I def recommend! read more

A Total Joke of an Experience - Save Yourself the Headache We placed an order from Dozo Dozo through DoorDash, and after waiting over an hour with zero updates, the order was just randomly canceled. No explanation, no apology, no food -- just an hour of wasted time and growing frustration. We contacted Dozo Dozo directly hoping to get some clarity or at least a basic apology, but they were completely clueless and unhelpful. They didn't offer a solution, didn't take any responsibility, and clearly couldn't care less about the customer experience. The attitude was dismissive at best. If this is how they handle business, it's not a place worth giving your money or your time. Totally unprofessional and utterly disappointing. read more

Was in Woodbury for an event and decided to dine at Dozo Dozo for dinner with my family. The service was top-notch!! My kids were handed their personal plastic cups of water, which were tightly closed with lids. My younger one still managed to spill it all over the table and a nice wait staff understandingly came by with napkins and said "it's okay, I have kids too." They were also friendly and very attentive to our needs. We ordered the handroll set, sushi for 2 and edamame and everything was freshly made and so delicious. My only feedback is for the handrolls, which arent your traditional Japanese handrolls. Rather, they're in seaweed "tacos" which made it kind of difficult and messy to eat. Otherwise, I would return again and try other items on the menu! This time I will say no to water for my kids. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is intimate and cozy and their sushi is fresh and delicious![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Love that they had variety of selection of fish and the cuts were generously served. Love that this place has ample amount of parking and its more laid back. My kids also loved the tempura udon. The broth savory and the noodles were super chewy perfectly cooked. The servers were friendly and knowledgeable. Def worth a try if you are in the mood for japanese food. read more

Some of the freshest and best sushi on Long Island hands down. Service is great as well. Their lunch special is reasonable and they do a great job with their sushi and sashimi read more

Had omakase here, every piece was very fresh and delicious, a rare gem on Long Island. Although I loved my dinner, I was hoping for more creativity in each fish, I felt most of the flavors were pretty one note. The children were also very hungry due to the slow service, our server was running and his forehead had beads of sweat so I assume they might just have been short staffed for the night. It was a pleasant dinner and I would definitely come back for my omakase fix, hopefully things improved even more! read more

Went on a Monday when a lot of other sushi places are typically closed. I am happy to report that the fish was very fresh. We did the omakase. It is $120 a person for 15 tastings. They also offer 10% cash discount. The staff were very attentive. The inside is very modern and clean. The omakase was a great experience with various different flavor profiles. I liked that the omakase included appetizers and dessert. Definitely would recommend. read more

Dozo Dozo - Seared Chilean sea bass - Sushi Bars Near Me - Woodbury, New York

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Very nice interior and friendly but unprofessional service earns 2 stars.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Zero stars for the barely super market level sushi. Actually may super markets are better ! After waiting 46 minutes for our meal, I asked for Wasabi? They didn't have any just some powdered product available. I unfortunately put a piece of uni in my mouth , I wanted to spit it out but refrained in public. I tried a couple of pieces of fish and a scallop. It was all tasteless and mushy. I sent back the entire platter for fear of food poisoning. I was really hoping for a nice meal ! I rarely if ever give a bad review but this is a public service announcement. The management wasn't professional nor apologetic. Perhaps they thought the service and sushi was acceptable which is scary. read more

We went for a lunch as the reviews were very good. As a Japanese most of the time we disappointed with the quality of food and we were very skeptical about here as only one table was occupied where we arrived. There is no lunch special and the menu is pricey. The tap water was nuke and no tea was offered as we expected. I thought I would be disappointed. We ordered a regular sushi and 5hand rolls. And to my surprise, they are very fresh and tasty. Hand rolls didn't look like authentic ones and too little rice, but new toppings were pretty good. I hope they serve teas for free like authentic Japanese restaurants and I will definitely come back. read more

Delicious! We went for the omakase but having been seated by the chefs, we got to see everything that was being made and if all looked amazing. The fish was extremely fresh and creatively plated. The chefs were very friendly and they explained each dish nicely. Our waiter was also very helpful, friendly and welcoming. The ambiance is very warm and inviting but modern and clean. Would recommend for a group of friends or even a date night. Will definitely be back when I'm in the area. read more

5 stars for everything. Warning: that is NOT a dinner mint in the little glass dish! I'm glad we asked - it's a hand towel to wipe your hands, and it was kind of fun to watch it expand after they poured water on it. (Oops, I hope I didn't spoil the surprise!) I was reminded to add that there are a couple of spots on the menus are hard to see because they appear to have worn off. I could make it out if I looked closely, but I didn't care that much because they weren't dishes for which I wanted more detail, so it wasn't much of an issue for me. When someone eats stuff they normally pick off their plate (and not so sneakily transfer it to your plate) you know it's a winner of a place. They make their own dashi, and you can taste it in the miso soup. Normally I'm the only one who likes the miso black cod (it isn't popular with my dining companion because it can be fishy) but this one was a hit with both of us. Not too sweet, and fully cooked through, which is the complaint about Nobu's version. Personally I could have done without the Japanese mustard, which I scraped off, and then it was perfect. The sushi for 2: you get 10 pcs each, plus 2 special rolls. The thing with getting a sushi set is there's usually at least one (sometimes several) piece that is "meh", or there are a bunch of different kinds, but only one of each kind. That was definitely not an issue here! We got the Hakata roll (deep fried soft shell crab, asparagus, avocado, topped with spicy tuna) and Dozo Special Roll (tuna, salmon, yellowtail, topped with toro and scallions, with truffle caviar). No picking the asparagus out, we ate everything. I prefer not too complicated rolls, so I hope they will let me substitute rolls next time. Then we got seconds of the scallop sushi (which is also something I am the only one who orders), and I got a piece of the Hokkaido Uni - best uni nigiri in a long time - finally, crispy seaweed! It makes a huge difference, though I am still going to eat the uni sushi if the seaweed is a little chewy. It was good to get a partial preview of the omakase (oysters with uni and yuzu foam, miso black cod, and chawan mushi) - it's now on our list to try. This is the best sushi place we've been to on Long Island, and I am pretty sure we will end up here if we can't agree on what to have for dinner. (I foresee many "disagreements" in the future!) FYI, the sushi bar is all wood (see pic) so we didn't get to actually watch the chefs making the sushi, but if that's the only "disappointment" at dinner, it's a very good dinner! There was also a promotion on (10% off for cash). I don't know how long that will last, but I am definitely going prepared in the future. read more

I really wish this new business the best of luck because the quality of the food is very good and the decor inside is very nice. We stopped in for dinner one night and we were able to be seated right away because we were the only people in the restaurant for our entire meal. Hopefully when they get their liquor and/or beer-wine licenses they will attract more of a crowd. The competition for food two doors down had no problem attracting a crowd and even had a few people waiting outside. Prices for rolls and almost everything in general were very high even for Long Island. We tried the 5 for $40 roll menu and while the food was excellent, the "rolls" were more like tacos in dried seaweed and served on one of those triangular taco gizmos that keeps everything upright and together. My daughter had a bowl of clear broth and some ramen inside-$17 for a bowl of soup- hmm. Rock shrimp appetizer was good but nothing super special. The staff was very friendly and helpful and we wanted for nothing as they were always available. On our trip there were 7 people working to serve the three of us. I hope they begin to start attracting a bigger crowd and again, I wish them the best of luck. read more

New place in the woodbury commons. Nice ambiance. Place is decorated nicely. Service was good. Prices are fair. Got the valentine roll. Spicy tuna. And a roll with fried oysters which was the best of the bunch. If you live in the area. Its worth a visit. They don't have a liquor license yet. So bring your own sake read more

I've been here many times (probably 7 including when they had a soft opening) and I would say in general it's very good. The last couple times it seems like the sushi is coming out soggy for some reason. Like the spicy tuna is not hard enough or cold enough. The valentine roll was mushy and as they get busier the service seems to be declining a little. I do think for this area it's pretty good and authentic and fresh. I will continue to go there however I think the rice and some of the rolls need to be looked at for consistency in texture. read more

Dozo Dozo - Valentine roll (delicious) - Sushi Bars Near Me - Woodbury, New York

Alright I think I found my new favorite Omakase spot in Nassau County today! I went for the Omakase chef choice special which ended up costing $120 in total. This set included 3 appetizers and 10-15 pieces of nigiri sushi and then I ordered a little more for good measure. What can I say I'm a glutton for punishment (in a good way) lol! For starters I had the oysters with some green form of ponzu sauce that tasted amazingly sweet and savory with a hint of a Japanese soda zest yummy! I have never had Japanese oysters taste so good before wow! They had Ikura and uni on them I think under the foam green sauce hidden in plain sight. Second I had the Miso cod cooked or grilled to perfection with that ever so slight char we all know and LOVE! Then lastly I had a mushroom soup or maybe it was a clear soup not sure exactly but it was hot and contained those nice shiitake mushrooms I like and the smaller ones as well with the long stems forgot the names of them actually sorry. After that the main dish came with all the nigiri pieces looking all shiny and silky the way I like it. The usual suspects were here toro, uni, sweet shrimp with the head, aji, horse mackerel, red snapper, egg custard, etc. Last but not least for dessert was fried ice cream tempura I chose the vanilla flavor very tasty and creamy. All in all I had a great time and for short measure they even added a 15% discount for paying cash and I guess for gratuity as well. I had a great time love the decor and ambiance of this place for sure I will be back there was more than enough parking. Please make sure to call ahead and make reservations and tell them NEV sent you from YELP. Hope this helps peace! read more

Dined at Dozo Dozo in Woodbury tonight. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Beautiful restaurant, more upscale and refined than most sushi restaurants I've been to on the Island.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Had heard great things about the 15 selection omakase, but they couldn't offer it tonight because they ran out of some special fish selections. So we went with the sushi for two, which consisted of 9 different fish preparations and two specialty rolls (we chose the Black Dragon and Dozo Dozo roll). Wow is all I can say. Felt like Manhattan quality sushi at non-Manhattan prices. It even rivaled the omakase that I had in Japan earlier this year. I had previously dined here for lunch a la carte, it was good but I strongly recommend letting the chef choose for you for a very memorable experience. This has has spoiled us for sushi on Long Island. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We sat at the sushi bar which also made for a more intimate setting, where the sushi chef was able to present his art to us.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]If you are looking for a more upscale experience, I recommend you give this place a try.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Fairly new food place in the Woodbury commons nestled in the town of woodbury. right off Jericho Tpke The eatery is decorated nicely and lit well. Service was ok. Prices are on the higher side. Got something someone here mentioned being a good choice: valentine roll and a few spicy tuna rolls with extra spicy sauce. Parking was a challenge as it shares a lot with other businesses. Accessible and bathrooms were cleaned ( I guess other diners werent as respectful as they should have been with the receptacles). There are choices for every palate although be careful with your food allergies. This was why i rate they way i do. It is a serious problem for us. Otherwise nice experience. Was a long drive for us and not too many people here. Maybe offer some discounts or coupons.May be back... read more

We sat at the bar for omakase and loved our experience. First off, the ambiance was very modern, clean, and intimate. The service was exceptional and sushi chefs were very friendly and knowledgeable.

I have been to Dozo Dozo twice in the last month, each time ordering the Sushi for 2 ($100). A fantastic selection of quality fish, far superior in quality and technique than other high end places on long island. Special rolls are fine but are not the stand out.

The food at this place is even better than the beautiful decor. We were seated around 9:00 when they close at 9:30 PM. The staff were happy to serve us and were very attentive.

Adequate free parking in rear. Reservations accepted. Staff pleasant and very accommodating. Was recommended by a friend to try this particular sushi restaurant in woodbury even though there were a few other nearby sushi restaurants to choose from.

Highly recommend a visit to this restaurant. read more

My review is for take out only as I have not been to the restaurant itself. Too many local sushi spots are lowering their quality (most likely due to prices and economy) but this is unacceptable to me. Sushi is a treat and fish must be fresh or else customers don't come back. Who wants to eat fishy salmon? Not me. Searched on Uber Eats and found Dozo Dozo. Wow! I was very impressed. Have ordered 3x since then and fish is very fresh and packaging is beautiful. There is no place to pour the soy sauce (normally you pour it on the lid) but this packaging doesn't really allow that. Regardless that is the least of my worries. Thank you Dozo Dozo! Will be a returning customer read more
