SquareMeal Review of Dozo Sushi

Split over two floors, this good-looking, minimalist Japanese joint comprises an intimate basement with snug-like booths, & a ground-floor dining area flanked by a busy sushi counter, with a larger-than-life geisha painted on one wall. Although raw fish takes up half the extensive menu, Dozo goes beyond the confines of its title by offering edamame, grilled kushiyaki skewers, bowls of ramen noodles & various chef’s specials such as Wagyu beef with eryngii mushrooms & red miso, as well as bento boxes. Helpful staff are happy to give suggestions: on our visit, a warm starter of quivering tofu fried in garlic miso was tooth-meltingly sweet, while the soft-shell crab salad was delicate & perfectly crisp, but somewhat overpowered by lashings of rich sweet-chilli mayonnaise.

A rip off!!!
Pricy, tiny portions, average Japanese food. Thoroughly not impressed with ANYTHING we had. When me and my wife complaint to the staff about the portion sizes the waiter said ordinarily the portion we got should had been even smaller and rudely offered to take and decrease them even further! I refused to pay for the “service” and instead of simply removing it from the bill another waiter got into an argument with me insisting I paid it. Of course I didn't. Stay away from this place. Awful experience.

One of the most unpleasant dining experiences of recent memory. The level of rudeness was beyond belief. Could have been a bad night but seems like the place is actually run like a cheap opium den. Food you haven't ordered arrives and is basically pushed on you. Sadly the food is good but the staff is so not – rude, inattentive and slow… Guess too many covers for such a cramped space… Sad experience overall – pity as food is good.

How to kill a night...
You start with being greeted by a hostess that is afraid of the customers and looking slightly constipated putting you at a table for two when you are three… It goes on to having food you haven't ordered arriving and a waiting staff arguing that you have ordered exactly that… Unapologetically bringing one after another other people that speak poor English no one of which seems to be the manager in the restaurant… Overall a sad experience bordering with hilarious based on the level of rudeness…

Day before yesterday my old Japanese friends from college came to my home, I have make them feel at home so I ordered Sushi from Dozo Sushi via Dinein.co.uk. My friends were happy to have such a good taste like they have in their country & quick delivery. Thanks Dozo Sushi & dinein.co.uk for their good service. Krista Bordwell

Poor hygiene is not a laughing matter!
Very disappointed, don't usually leave reviews, but having eaten here around half a dozen times, usually hit and miss as to whether you get all items you ordered – the case of the missing miso – yesterday i took my parents there and felt compelled to leave a review. I think on the whole the food is OK albeit overpriced. yesterday we were looking forward to some of their pseudo-Japanese food and asked for extra wasabi. The sushi chef in full view of our table put a dollop of wasabi on the counter to the shrill laughter of the waitress – she then proceeded to put it into a receptacle and serve it to us. When challenged she claimed that they had thrown the piece away, which they had not as we had just seen the events transpire. We of course asked for the manager and advised that we could not eat there, as we could not be assured of the levels of hygiene. The ‘manager’ was apologetic and picked up the tea and water; but there were no assurances re hygiene nor apologies from the waitress or the sushi chef. Unbelievable! If they can treat your food like that in front of you it doesn't bear thinking about what they do when you are not looking or in the kitchen.
