Was pleasantly surprised by this place. The service was friendly, and they allow dogs; outside of course. My group of 5 + 2 dogs needed seating, which they were able to accommodate their cozy seating right by the front door. Fortunately they have heaters running outside, so that was nice. We ordered 3 rolls - spicy tuna (5 pcs), black pearl (8 pcs), crunchy California (8-9 pcs for $15). The rolls were pretty well balanced with ingredients. Spicy tuna was a bit, but surprisingly, their crunchy California was the best. Fried absolutely perfectly with whatever batter they use, and inserted with real crab - not imitation! Anyway, enjoyed this place for what it was. It's not a large restaurant, nor do they have a large menu, but the taste was good and we enjoyed the service from our nice waiters. read more

Tried this place for the first time and I loved it! I came on a Monday night at 7pm, so getting a seat wasn't a problem. It's a smaller place though so that's something to keep in mind for a day that might be busier. The service was very attentive and friendly. I'll always order salmon collar if I see it on a menu and this one was huge! It's felt like a whole salmon fillet along with the collar. The black pearl roll was my favorite. It had a good seared flavor and the dollop of truffle pate on top wasn't overwhelming. The jalapeño hamachi was also a solid choice. I'd pass on the zesty salmon tempura roll next time, but I'm also not the biggest fan of shrimp tempura in general. I'll definitely come back here. I loved the quaint atmosphere and the generous amount of fish given in each dish. read more

Not the best tasting sushi, but the cute space and ambience definitely deserve recognition. Being in Hayes Valley, a prime location, they still manage to offer reasonably priced sushi. The rolls are quite large and filling, which is nice. That said, nothing really stood out as special. Even the Castro Roll, w/ a unique name, is basically just a rainbow roll. Still, it's a great spot for a cute outing or a quick stop for bare minimum sushi rolls. read more

Domo was a great experience for my friend and I! The outdoor seating was fine in 60-degree weather with the heat lamps. We came at 6PM and there was already a waitlist for indoor seating. What we ordered: + Black Pearl [4.5/5]: Great great umami roll. I think it could have some more depth like acidity or saltiness, but the black pearl roll is a great mouthfeel of fatty fish and caviar. + Castro Roll [3.5/5]: An average roll. + Poke Tacos [5/5]: HIGHLY recommend these. Super great portion for the price. Really delicious flavor. I think the ratio of fish to everything else is very well-balanced. Each bite has a great ratio of crunchy seaweed to a mouthful of fish to that umami avocado and sauce. I would 100% order these again as an appetizer. I would definitely come try again! The quality was pretty good, though nothing in particular blew me away except for the poke tacos. :) read more

Great neighborhood sushi spot with great service. Came in right before last call and ordered the California crab roll and a spicy tuna roll. The sushi taste super fresh and the the prices are really fair. Great spot to swing by and have a couple rolls and roll on with your day. For two rolls and a bowl of miso was $35. They also have specials that are hand written on the glass wall inside with other options that aren't in the menu. It's not a very large restaurant so seating can be limited if it does get busy but the inside is very clean. read more

This is a very small restaurant with a simple menu. We went on a Saturday evening, and the wait was surprisingly only about 20 minutes. The service was okay: slightly rushed, but understandable given the small space and quick turnover. We started with the Negi Toro Roll, which was pretty standard. The Black Pearl Roll caught our eye with its interesting description, and we were told it tends to be hit or miss. Personally, I thought it sounded better than it actually tasted. The flavors don't go that well together. The Sunkis Roll was better, because I liked the combination of salmon and lemon. The real highlight of the meal was the Poke Tacos. We literally debated ordering another round. They come as a pair, but you can add a third if you're dining with an odd number of people. Each taco is a crispy tempura seaweed shell topped with poke and a generous heap of seaweed salad. I'd come back for the poke tacos alone, but otherwise, the food didn't leave a strong impression. read more

Cozy sushi spot with plenty of space right in the heart of Hayes Valley. I'm not a huge sushi lover, but I liked this this place wasn't just mood lighting and a high price tag. They had a good mix of rolls, and I left pretty satisfied after a dinner with 3 friends. They were pretty busy but there wasn't a wait on a Thursday night. Would come back and try more rolls! read more

Needed a quick bite and came to Domo as I heard they had ties to a very famous influencer's father. Not sure what I was expecting, but thought it would be more than low-quality nigiri. The service was good as they were attentive and seated me very fast. There is very limited seating. I opted into sitting at the bar as it was only available for parties of 1. The yuzu sashimi was good, but the nigiris were sub-par or low quality to my standard. It wasn't that great in my honest opinion. The sushi tacos were loaded, but just seemed like it was put together with a bunch of sauce. read more

My boyfriend and I were in the mood for sushi after shopping in Hayes Valley, and we discovered Domo on Yelp. Due to their limited seating, they don't take reservations. We arrived on a Saturday around 7 PM and found the place packed, with a party ahead of us and maybe one table available outside. We opted for inside seating as it was chilly outside (but there were heaters outside FYI). We were seated within ~15 minutes at a table. There were ~4 tables and some bar seating inside. We quickly fell in love with the cozy, intimate ambiance inside. The tables were spaced out nicely, and the table size was perfect for all the dishes we ordered--no issues moving anything around. The staff was friendly. Here is our order for the night: Large Sapporo Beer and Umeshu (plum wine): I was thrilled to see umeshu on the menu, as it is my favorite alcoholic drink! I am used to having it with club soda, so it definitely felt strong, but it was still smooth and tasty. Miso Soup: Great appetizer. Edamame: Comes in a very generous portion, perfect for sharing. Crunchy California Roll and Domo Roll: These rolls were good but, unfortunately, a little underwhelming. They were tasty, but not incredible. Omakase (4pc): This was the highlight of the meal! The nigiris were top-notch and the fish was very fresh. We'll definitely be ordering more nigiris on our next visit! Our meal was the perfect amount of food to satisfy us. The total, before tip, was $104, which I think is a reasonable price for the quality of the food. read more

This place was so so so so so good I almost cried eating the domo roll !! This is a cute little restaurant tucked in Hayes Valley that you can expect a waiting list at upon arrival. It is so cozy yet classy inside and you are greeted by the amazing folks who work there. The star of this night was the domo roll, to which I have no words to say other than that roll was FIREEEEE like each bite felt like fireworks exploding :,) I could eat like ten of these in a row. If you are ever in the area pleasseeeee make sure you try this because WOW. Must come back and have again ! read more

My friends and I were in Hayes on a Friday night and originally wanted to check out a different restaurant but the wait was way too long. We stumbled upon Domo on Yelp and although it's not directly on Hayes, it's a quick 2 minute walk away. I actually recognized Domo from an influencer I follow on socials! Her dad owns the restaurant! For a party of 3, we ordered a couple of things. For appetizers, we got the edamame, sashimi salad, and hamachi crudo. We got three rolls to share - the negi toro, domo, and castro. We also got a bottle of Riesling for the table. Everything was amazing! My standouts were the hamachi crudo and negi toro roll. The fish was really fresh and pricing was overall pretty good for SF. The service is fairly quick, and the restaurant is cozy. It's pretty small, so there's limited seating but feels intimate. Definitely a great spot for a date! I will be back! read more

First and last time for this place unfortunately. The restaurant is VERY small, only a few tables. It's freezing cold at night and they have the door open. Patrons were wearing jackets inside because it was so cold. I sat at the counter which was pretty tight. The service was ok nothing special. The food was boring. I tried the Jalapeño Hamachi roll. It was literally hamachi and slice jalapeño. No sauce or anything. Complete miss. I also tried the hot tuna roll. This was better. Good flavor and nice crunch to the roll. Mildly spicy, but it was good, not great. For the price of sushi these days I will absolutely skip this place and go elsewhere. The size of the place made me feel rushed to eat and get out. Definitely not a place to go if you want to linger a little and talk to your friend/date. read more

been wanting to come here because isa sung's dad owns it the sushi is pretty high quality, I would say this is a hidden gem and one of the better sushi spots in sf. the moment I saw the $15 off doordash deal I came sprinting. the restaurant is really small but we walked in on a wednesday night and got a cozy table in a corner. we tried the domo ($18), castro ($18), black pearl ($20) and they were all delicious. the domo had unagi which I love but since it's baked it was missing the oomph from the crisp. the black pearl was unique with the truffle pate. all the fish were melt in your mouth tender :") would come back to try more rolls! read more

such a cute date spot. it's soo romantic. the seating outside r all benches facing the road and they have a heat lamp above every single bench. also u can ask for a blanket, they'll provide one to keep u extra toasty. now onto the food. i'm impressed by the ratio of yuzu in some of the dishes we ordered. it worked wonders with the salmon citron and hamachi crudo (OUR FAV) i can't stop thinking about it!!! and the black pearl (scallop + truffle another heavenly pairing) also had that hint of citron that never once overpowered the fish even tho u can taste it clear as day workers there are also attentive and personable, i so so recommend! read more

My girlfriend and I came here around 530 on a Friday night. We were seated at a table facing out toward the street. It was beautiful and I gotta give credit to the environment as it was a cute place The food was just good. It was nothing incredible. Some of the sushi pieces had no rice and others had too much. The portions per price and time the quality were not worth it. Our bill totaled nearly 115 and we left hungry. I liked the place, but definitely would work on portion sizing read more

This is my fav spot in the city for sushi- amazing quality fish and a spot to grab a couple rolls that aren't super pricey (can be under $100 for 2 people) and have a nice dinner. Domo is a small space with seating at the bar, tables for 2-4 inside, outside tables with heating lamps. They have dim, warm lighting inside. We got the hot green tea to start. They offer sake, wine, beer as well. I highly recommend the Castro roll and the hot tuna. We got the crab and shrimp tempura hand roll to start which was creamy and delicious! The service is great, the food comes out relatively quick and they're very nice. read more

We were pleasantly surprised by our lunch at Domo. In a Friday we were seated right away at a table next to the window. They have a few seats at the sushi bar, as well as a few tall tables that seat four people, and a few tables outside. The sushi is fresh and delicious. They have specials on the mirror which we missed at first; once our server pointed it out we ordered multiple items including the snow crab and red snapper nigiri. From the menu we also got the salmon and inari nigiri, the Castro roll, the jalapeño hamachi roll, and the crunchy California roll. read more

we arrived for around 12:30 for lunch and was seated quickly -- maybe only 2-3 other tables were occupied. the waiter was very sweet, but seemed to have forgotten an order that we had initially put in. on our first order, we asked for sake sashimi, the i.c roll, and a dragon roll. but we soon realized that the dragon roll did not get relayed to the kitchen, as it had not come out with the rest of our order. that's when we decided to put in a second order and opted for the domo roll. the food itself was good, but nothing outstanding. i felt that the domo roll was a bit lacking in its integrity. it tended to fall apart or stick to the foil when we picked it up. the lemon slices on the i.c roll was a tad thick so you really taste the rind with each bite. the sashimi was clean and fresh. the restaurant is a cozy atmosphere, small tables and only a few in the restaurant but they offer outdoor seating as well in a nice neighborhood. read more

Terrible service, we've eaten here many times the food is good, but tonight's experience was very unprofessional. Have these guys ever worked in a restaurant before? They dropped the food off, and never looked back until we were finished ..we wanted to get some more wasabi could not get their attention. They give you some wasabi the size of a pea for three people. The restaurant wasn't even full and there were two waiters and a bus boy WTF. whatever happened to glancing around to see if anybody needed anything. read more

I don't even know how many times I've been here and I am late on my review! This is my go-to sushi spot in the city whether it be with friends or solo dates. Love love the hamachi crudo, the yuzu sauce is delicious!! Also loveee all of their nigiri, the fish is so fresh. Yuzu cocktail is also a must. You honestly can't go wrong with anything here. The place is a little small, so don't bring your party of 8 here, please. There could be a little bit of a wait for dinner and on weekends, but well worth.

Solid spot for sushi in Hayes Valley. Very small. A group larger than two might have to eat outside. It was a cold night. But they do have heat lamps, that our helpful server happily turned on for us. And they have blankets :-) This is the first time I've been at this restaurant in a long time. And I think it's actually gotten better. The Black Pearl roll with seared scallops was delicious. The Hamachi Crudo was also very very tasty. We actually enjoyed all our dishes. Except the veggie roll had some odd flavor choices. Otherwise a very satisfying sushi, dinner in a quaint but friendly and inviting location. read more

Came here for the good reviews and the good prices so decided to check out Domo for a light dinner! We ordered 3 rolls, including their speciality black pearl with albacore, their Domo roll, and a veggie roll. Their veggie roll was unique since they added sweet potato but I was struggling to swallow it half the time because of the shiso leaf that was added in or it might have been the tough nori. The Domo was probably the best roll since the scallop and salmon were cooked to perfection! The specialty roll (black pearl) was also really good but the shiso came up again in this roll (probably some sort of oil) which we realized we weren't a fan of that particular flavor. Overall good sushi though for a quick bite! read more

The sushi is solid and they have a good variety, but it's not my favorite spot to go in the city. The rolls were pretty good - the cucumber salad and salmon citron roll were sadly flavorless.

We were seated quickly and brought nice iced waters and menus. We ended up ordering 4 types of Nigiri as well as two rolls (Domo roll and the Black Pearl). We also ordered some wine. Everything was delicious, tasted fresh, and service was nice. Would definitely come back here and try more things. read more

Such a cute sushi spot. Intimate seating, great location, fresh sushi, and friendly service. Perfect for a date spot or to catch up with a friend. Seating is limited, so it might not be the best option if you're coming with a large group. Seating is on a first come, first serve basis and there's typically a queue. You can put your name on the waiting list and walk around the charming neighborhood. They will call you once your table is ready. The sushi is always delicious and fresh! You can't go wrong with any of the special rolls (the black pearl is the best) or the sashimi. read more

Mid garbage can't even add soy sauce or utensil to order. Won't be coming back or ever. Place went downhill.

Domo is an absolutely go to date night spot. The service is always attentive, probably because it is a smaller place.
