Damso Izakaya is a fun spot to enjoy Japanese-style dining. The tuna and salmon rolls were fresh, flavorful, and very satisfying. We also tried the chicken skin skewers and edamame, which were perfect for snacking and sharing with friends. The portions are generous, and everything is easy to eat and enjoy, making it a great place for a casual, filling, and enjoyable meal. Will definately come back❤️

Excellent Hidden Gem! Small place(30-40 people) Quiet No pressure or rushing to figure out your order....Just enter it on the Tablet that is on your table. Most important of all.....High quality and very tasty food. Thanks Staff.

We absolutely loved our visit to Damso Izakaya! We ordered the roll bento box, miso soup, ramen and the salmon pressed sushi and everything came out so quick and was incredibly yummy. The salmon pressed sushi was a standout, but honestly every dish was fresh and flavorful. The staff were super friendly and welcoming, and the whole space has such a cool vibe. You can tell they put thought into the atmosphere. This is officially our new go-to spot, and we’re already excited to come back. Highly recommend!

We had Takoyaki, Carbonara Udon, and Midori Wave here. All of them were delicious, but my favorite was the Midori Wave, which was a type of sushi. The Calpico Yogurt drink tasted a bit like coconut milk. The portions were generous and enough for two people. We really enjoyed the atmosphere of the place.

Really good food and great atmosphere. Everything tasted really fresh, especially the sashimi and yakitori. The portions however are pretty small so the prices can add up quickly. But it is a izakaya so you are expected to get smaller portions! At least the quality of the food was amazing. Service also could be better as they were quite busy and didn't have time to check in on how our food was. But it's easy to order food as it is done on a tablet attached to your table. I would recommend to get a reservation on the weekends!
