Alice J.

Good service, easy to read menu (not QR code), uniquely presented fried soft shell crab, interesting Godzilla rolls! Huge shoyu ramen. Love their lanterns and decor. You can see sashimi chefs at work behind the counter. Great location at Columbus Circle.

Shannon W.

Great delivery experience! I was able to track the delivery person via phone and met them in my lobby for a seamless handoff. Sushi was so fresh and well made. Also not that expensive! I love New York and I love sushi

Damo Ramen - Tonkotsu
Kiana F.

If you're ever near Central Park and want a great meal, Sushi Damo is your restaurant. The restaurant had a welcoming atmosphere with the feeling of being in Japan! The staff were friendly and service was fast. The Tonkotsu Ramen was delicious. I definitely recommend this restaurant!

Josephine L.

Overpriced, yes, but also the only decent sushi spot in the immediate area. The regular rolls like Salmon Avocado are small, the special rolls like the Golden Roll are bigger, and the Chirashi is remarkably huge. I don't know who decides portion sizes, but they might need a magnifying glass... Also, skip the Strawberry Lemonade. It's made with artificial syrup and tastes like thrown up Kool-Aid.

The beau and I stopped in here for their happy hour which is from 4-7. They have a very generous food offering and the cocktails were good and strong. We chose several items from their "tapas" section and were quite pleased with our selections. The food came out fast and hot. The flavors were great and the heat on the chicken was perfect for me. The staff is friendly and gracious. My only negative is the bar isn't deep enough so your knees are in awkward positions. Beware but enjoy! We will be back.

Tempura Roll and spicy tuna
Bill T.

Met some friends for dinner here and had a nice time. Service was efficient and prices were pretty good. I had the rock shrimp tempura as an appetizer and enjoyed it. My spicy tuna roll was great and the Sakura roll was great...actually I could have had just that and been full. They have Sapporo beer on tap. I'll definitely return.

We decided that we wanted something different for Thanksgiving dinner and decided on sushi, after calling around sushi damo picked up and we made our way there for dinner. The staff was very friendly! We never had an empty glass of water or plates on the table. I thought the inside was great, and they had a wall of trees, also great music! I decided to have a French 75 to drink that was light and refreshing. To eat we shared pork guizoa that was savory! For sushi I had a rainbow roll, the Hell's Kitchen roll, and salom roe. It was fresh and so good! Loved this decision for thanksgiving dinner 23!

Aged Tofu; Edamame; Grilled Shishito Peppers & Rock Shrimp Tempura
Joshua A.

Our visit started off a bit shaky as my family and I were interested in trying Sushi Damo during happy hour. Unfortunately, happy hour is restricted to the bar and with two little ones, it isn't necessarily appropriate ( I mean I don't care, but most places do)...anyways, upon learning of our intent, the hostess and manager were extremely quick to move us towards the bar and allow us to partake in happy hour...and boy did we ever! With a manager that couldn't be nicer, more attentive and wonderful with our girls, to the food being outrageously amazing (especially the shishito peppers...I mean, absolutely the best I have ever had, and I've had a lot), I cannot recommend Sushi Damo more! The seating was comfortable with wonderful plating and ambiance and every dish that came out was on point! 100% our new favorite Japanese spot in NYC! Thank you for such a wonderful time. We will not soon forget our 10th Anniversary dinner!

Chirashi
Dimitri S.

Solid sushi restaurant and my go to in the neighborhood. They recently added a ramen menu. They have a pretty extensive drink menu as well. Often busy, but service is mostly prompt and attentive. The Cori Cori is underrated as an appetizer, garlicky, sliced mushrooms over steamed broccoli. Fish offerings are fresh. Other appetizers I've had, including the agedashi tofu and sesame spinach are on point.

Kwame S.

Pretty decent spot. Food and service were top notch, and I definitely would return in the future if I'm in the area. The price is more or less in line with other restaurants in the area. Speaking of service, I visited the restaurant with diluted eyes after an optometrist appt, and my waitress was kind enough to read certain portions of the menu to me.

Spicy tuna roll
Abby R.

We stumbled upon this spot while visiting the city and we loved it! Great, lively atmosphere and our waiter was really funny & friendly. We split a bunch of apps and then got two rolls, and it was the perfect light dinner for my family of three. My favorite thing by far was the spicy yellowtail sashimi - so fresh & the fish eggs of top added texture to each bite. We had the beef gyoza and the pork gyoza, and all preferred the pork. Shishito peppers were good if you don't like them fried like me. The rolls were great basics. Only thing we didn't care for was the soft shell crab, but i think that was more of a palate preference than it not being well-made/good quality. Overall, we really enjoyed this spot and were very pleased by the quality of fish.

Mochi Green Tea ice cream
Jason M.

Grade A sushi. I had an amazing time. The staff was very professional and the sushi was fabulous, and reasonably priced. The mochi green tea ice cream is so good. It's very unique. Unlike regular ice cream, it's more like a dumpling with ice cream inside.

Wen Jin G.

a quick meal in Columbus Circle before our movie at Lincoln Square. the place was pretty empty on a Saturday afternoon and we were quickly seated near the window. i got the roll combo (california, shrimp tempura, eel cucumber roll) and chose the salad to go with them. the rolls were all quite good, only that the rice seemed a tad too wet but thankfully not mushy. service was good and we had no complaints. a good spot for a quick lunch when you're in the area.

The atmosphere here was a bit more lively and crowded compared to the more relaxed vibe of the UWS spot. I enjoyed my meal even more this time around. I started with the beet salad, which was delicious and offered great value given the generous portion size. it featured sliced beets, arugula, goat cheese, and walnuts. I also had my eye on the hijiki soybean salad--which is a bit smaller and reportedly homemade--so I may try that next time, along with the warm mushroom salad which looked very tasty. The edamame was standard but served as a nice starter. For my main rolls, I chose the salmon avocado and the yellowtail scallion. Both were very fresh and definitely worth ordering again. The salmon avocado roll had a nice touch of sesame seeds on the rice, while the yellowtail scallion was prepared with the seaweed on the outside. My boyfriend's sushi entree looked excellent, so I am considering that or the sushi-sashimi combo for my next visit. The entrees provide a substantial amount of food, and I especially appreciate that they allow you to choose which roll comes with your meal.

The slices aren't thin, delicate, and melt-in-your-mouth as one usually gets in a sit down; they are extra thick, and I had to really bite down on some of the pieces. The rice was nicely seasoned and was cooked well + portions are also big to match those thiccccc salmon slices. To be honest, I was getting a little nauseated after 5 pieces, haha~ They were definitely delicious but I'd probably just eat 3 or 4 pieces and share with a friend! It was easy to text the number on the website and coordinate a pickup time, and the staff was friendly when I arrived. The restaurant is a little hard to find as the windows are blinded and the sign is a piece of paper on the door.

The katsu was very, very moist on the inside, with a crispy batter that was so light it was almost flavorless. I honestly couldn't really tell the difference between the tenderloin and pork loin. Overall the dish had a very light flavor and I added quite a bit of sauce and wasabi. Some of the less memorable dishes were the eggplant agebitashi and truffle rice. The eggplant agebitashi tasted like a cross between an eggplant parm and a bolognese. The truffle rice had a very strong truffle flavor that ended up overpowering everything else in the dish. I thought the slices of raw button mushrooms were a little strange. I really enjoyed the sabazushi. The pieces of mackerel were thick and carried a lot of that characteristic mackerel oily flavor, but the oiliness was cut by enough vinegar to balance everything out. The niku udon was also a surprise hit. The noodles were wide, flat, super slurpy, and the broth carried a deep umami flavor. Overall, I had a pretty solid experience here.
