When diners enter this stylish restaurant in the heart of Boston’s Back Bay – steps away from the South End & Theater District – they are immediately enveloped in earth tones, rich dark wood and the airiness of high ceilings reverberating with the energy and excitement of the space. The lively bar area is a popular gathering spot offering a selection of cocktails, sake, wine and beer. Guests look on as the team of chefs create cutting-edge sushi dishes, or they settle into an experience of award-winning cuisine in the main dining area. From the knowledgeable and attentive waitstaff to charismatic owner Jack Huang’s pleasure at meeting diners, expect the comfort of being warmly welcomed at Douzo. Like the atmosphere, Douzo’s healthy and fresh cuisine seamlessly combines warm tradition and modern innovation of Japanese classics. Douzo offers inventive dishes that make the restaurant both a neighborhood fixture and a critically acclaimed destination, signature items.

    Food was good but unexceptional. Steamed dumplings were obviously prepared well ahead of time and reheated; the wrapping was overcooked and mushy. Atmosphere doesn’t have a Japanese vibe. Dessert, while not anything you’d ever find in Japan, was quite tasty (banana brûlée). Overall, an American take on a sushi restaurant.

    Every dish a hit - feels like you could throw a dart at the menu and hit something delicious. Great and friendly service, too. Definitely a new favorite.
