DASHI OKUME Brooklyn is a unique and inviting spot that combines a Japanese market with a restaurant experience. Known for its draft beer poured from a specialized Japanese machine, it offers a true taste of Japan in Brooklyn. The space is open and spacious, creating a casual, market-like atmosphere where customers can browse and shop while they dine. The restaurant features a variety of authentic Japanese foods, including a traditional Japanese set meal served at the back, which is highly praised. This meal includes different grilled fish options, and visitors often leave feeling nourished. The restaurant also offers a selection of dashi, including packets and premade options, which are popular for making miso soup at home. Many reviews highlight the quality of the fish, such as the Yakijake (grilled salmon) and Kinka Saba (mackerel) from Ishinomaki Fish Market, with the latter described as rich and fatty.
While the service is polite but reserved, the focus remains on the food and products rather than hospitality. The space operates as a collective with multiple vendors, making it more of a hybrid experience—combining dining with shopping. Visitors can sample various dashi broths and dried flakes, which are recommended and often purchased. The shop also sells items for cats and amazake packets, adding to its charm. Although some find the prices a bit high, overall, DASHI OKUME Brooklyn is a worthwhile destination for those seeking authentic Japanese flavors, quality products, and a relaxed, market-style environment.
