Dasiwa is located in the end unit nearest to the street. Found them by accident while browsing the inside of the mart to see what's new. Inside is bright and clean. Staff are very nice. Since it was lunch time, I thought I should try something. I got a bibimbap, which is one of my favorite light Korean dishes. I also ordered salmon sushi and the soy garlic wings to go.
The bibimbap was delicious and just the right size IMO. It comes with a side of Korean hot sauce, but I didn't use it. Tastes great all by itself. Sushi was decent. When I got home, it was time to eat those wings. Yummy stuff. Just melted in my mouth.
Prices are very appropriate for the location and a surprising number of choices. Plenty of combo choices to mix and match. It's mainly a Korean menu with some Japanese and American influenced choices. IMO most people should find something to like.
It impressed me enough that this will be my go to place whenever I go to the mart and the occasional visit for no particular reason. I stopped by my to see my mother on my way home and mentioned my experience. She wanted to go and try it for dinner. So I went again... but that was just fine with me.
She ordered udon with shrimp tempura to eat there, and bulgogi beef to go. I got spicy chicken and rice to eat there, and another sushi roll and wings to go. My mother loved the udon. Shrimp was basically fried shrimp. Still good. She ate the bulgogi beef for lunch the next day. She loved them all. All of the items I ordered were also very good. Those wings will be a regular item for my orders for sure.
A week later, my mother called me and asked if I could go there again and get a few dishes to go. When it comes to tasty food and where I know it's also a decent value, I don't mind driving a little further than I would otherwise. This time I ordered 6 dishes. They were all good. To go orders are packed nicely and just had to warm it up a little in the microwave on a plate. Udon was awesomely packed in 2 separate containers. Just had to combine them into a single large bowl at home and microwave it. It was all just right.
Most orders come with a small side of kimchi. If you don't like kimchi, take it home and add to a hot dog sandwich... yeah, I know. Might not sound good, but if you like ball park onions or relish, give it a try. Pretty good to me. Crunch and spicy.
Basically what I'm saying about this place is that it's very good based on it's location and value. This isn't a stand alone restaurant such as something in the Cherry Hill area, and is really not competition for any of those. Those are fancier, better quality and noticeably higher prices too. I appreciate the value and don't mind getting 90% of what I want at 50% of the price. read more
