My go to sushi place besides Omakase
My girl enjoyed the Chef’s menu very much (need to post right after a meal otherwise challenging to find photos…).
The small upscale restaurant was popular with a full house with outdoor seating where we were.
Many tables ordered Al la car like I did & they’d leave early. Chef’s menu takes about more than an hour. Bite-size multiple tapa dishes.

I love this little restaurant! I tried almost everything on the menu, including the omakase, and every visit has been consistently excellent. The food is clearly prepared with care, and the flavors are always fresh, balanced, and delicious. It's one of my favorite places.

Daigo, a cozy restaurant located in Palo Alto, offers top-notch food and accommodating staff. The 8-piece omakase, kanpachi, and tori karaage are delicious, with the chef explaining each dish to enhance the experience. The black sesame cheesecake is a delightful dessert. The restaurant has a few tables outside and the same amount inside, as well as a sushi counter bar. The staff are friendly and attentive, offering sake tastings and impeccable service. The omakase is perfect for a date night, with a sake pairing available for an additional charge.
The recently added reviews praise the hamachi shots, soft and crispy tofu, and the tender o toro nigiri as highlights of the dining experience. Customers describe the food as delicious, the fish as very fresh, and the service as quick and friendly. The omakase service is praised for the excellent quality of the fish and the chef's explanations of each bite and dish. The restaurant is also described as having a comfortable, casual neighborhood vibe.
