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.

    Went here for my friend’s birthday and we had a great time as sushi lovers. The chef’s sashimi plate and the tasty plate were delicious. We were served by Kira K, and she was so attentive, polite, and amazing overall. She made our night :)

    Sensational!!! We arrived 50 min early and they accommodated us!!! We sat down admiring the charming decor, with very attentive staff giving us the best service. Menu is quite vast but if you stick to your fav item it becomes simpler: lobster salad, chef’s nigiri sushi platter, crispy prawns, oysters, soft shell crab….the manager is amazing - forgot to ask him for his name but he said he is Thai. Best Japanese in Boston.

    Very good food, excellent ambiance. Finally, a quiet restaurant where you can actually have a conversation while enjoying your meal! So rare these days.

    Douzo was excellent as always. My wife and I took the train from Providence and met close friends from Boston. We’re now in the train heading back home.
