Cute restaurant decorated with some Japanese skateboards. Tried the yellowtail (picture not included), snapper, Hokkaido scallop, Toro takuwan, and Hokkaido uni temaki. Favorites were the Toro and uni. All the rolls were freshly made in front of me by the sushi chef. Fish was fresh and of higher quality than most other sushi places. The rice was warm and the nori was crunchy. Only wished the rice was more flavorful and closer to room temp, but that may be personal preference. A delicious and filling lunch nonetheless.

Small sushi restaurant but extremely fine and nice service. We wanted to eat sushi in the evening and found the restaurant by chance and were extremely surprised at how delicious the sushi was prepared. Everything was just right here and we can only recommend it. Gladly again.

I ordered take out from this restaurant, and I think it was one of the most decent sushi take outs I’ve ordered so far. It was a bit pricey but it was very tasty and arrived in 45 mins. I actually really enjoyed the wagyu uni piece and the crispy rice with seared salmon. I wasn’t a huge fan of the toro but that’s my personal taste. In general high quality food.

Douska is my most frequented restaurant in NYC since it opened. Everything is always solid. Favorite is the Sasa or Matsu set. The Temaki platter is fun if you like to get handsy and make your own food. The seaweed is crunchy and delicious while the fish is fresh and sauce & seasoning is immaculate. Vibe is so chill and comfortable; perfect for hanging solo with a book, drinks with friends, or a casual date. Their outdoor seating is also dog friendly!

small and quaint place for hand rolls! i ordered the Douzo set and every roll was delicious. all the fish was so fresh. yellowtail, scallop and toro were my favorites. by the last roll i was full, since these handsrolls are a decent size and the balance of rice to fish was perfect. i will back again and again! thank you!

Always excellent quality and fast service. These hand rolls are in my opinion better than those at famous joints like KazuNori and Nami nori. Don’t miss the scallop and seared

Girlfriend and I shared the Temaki Platter, got an extra miso soup, and a pot of tea. Everything we had was phenomenal and we'll definitely be back. The platter was a good amount of food and fun to put the handrolls together ourselves.

Came here for a quick dinner before a show and I was so blown away. Everything we had was so tasty and fresh and we all left happy and full with not big a dent in our wallets. Service was friendly and attentive and I will definitely be coming back to try more dishes!
