Very good sushi. Could have been more pieces on the Monster Roll. Good service. Easy to get to.
An absolute favorite! We do at least one take-out a week. Always delicious, fresh, and tasty. They're usually super-fast to make the orders, except on nights when everyone else decides to order. (Nights before holidays when no one wants to cook are an example.) But we really love this place. They do a ton of takeout, so the word is out. But I give it three thumbs up! They also seem to have plenty of dine-ins, so that's an option. Enjoyed a couple of rolls, dumplings, and salad just last night. Livingston's got a shortage of things that aren't Italian food or Chinese, and I've given up on the second, so Dozo's a great choice for easy dinners or lunch. LOVE IT!
Good sushi, great service and BYOB = a very good combination. I want to emphasize the BYOB as I actually had to scroll through a lot of reviews to find this, so hopefully this floats towards the top to more easily find. Also, very very kid friendly, which is a huge plus for families with little ones. Kids need to eat of the regular menu (no kids menu) but extra attention given to them and a lot of patience with smiles when utensils start dropping and need replacement.
Only recently I've started to try different eateries in Livingston. I'm from the area, but kind of slept on what's around town here. Last week, we went to Dozo for dinner during work week (it was also partly a celebration/treat-yo-self meal together). Our one favorite local sushi spots never quite returned to dine-in service after the pandemic, so we've been looking for a replacement. Dozo is a strong contender. Sushi was great. My vegetarian husband ordered AAC Roll, Sweet Potato Roll, Peanut Avocado Roll, and one of the specialty rolls - an Evergreen Roll. He was happy. I, because it's a new spot, went with a standard to try it out, so I ordered a Sushi Deluxe. Very good. Before our entrees, we got Age Tofu and Vegetarian Gyoza for appetizers. Pretty good. We didn't order this, but we saw that they have desserts as well as Ramune, which was cool to see on the menu. Kids love those Japanese sodas. (Who am I kidding? I love them and I'm a grown adult!) Dozo has friendly service, too. In short, we're fans, for sure. Recommended without hesitation!
Sushi lunch special was good. Staff was friendly and fish tastes fresh. Id come back again!
I went here with my family. I ordered the Dozo Omakasie for 1 it consists of a toro scallion roll and 8 pieces of sushi. It tasted very good. The sushi is a good temperature where it's not cold. They have a good selection of rolls and other sushi as well as traditional cooked Japanese dishes. I recommend this place.
