Domo domo. Not even close

Agreed that Domo Domo is easily the best, but you’ll have to pay for it. For an everyday order, Honshu is good.

Cannot upvote this enough. I had a hand roll at Domo Domo for the first time a few months ago, bit into it and was like WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS OTHER SHIT I'VE BEEN CALLING SUSHI ALL MY LIFE??? Anything else is totally ruined for me now.

Maybe I'm too much of a purist when i'm craving sushi, but I just have not been able to enjoy Domo Domo. Tried two of their courses and even tried to pick a la carte, but every time, there were so many overpowering fusion-y toppings covering the fish. The Honshu omakase is the polar opposite - I've had shima aji and kinmedai there, stuff that surprised me to see at a "local" spot.

Domo Domo cocktails were great though, and I still want to check out Ondo at some point.

I’m not a fan of the flavorful toppings - I am also a fish purist and appreciate the fresh and authentic flavor of Honshu’s options.

Ondo is a way better restaurant than Domo Domo. It's almost like a restaurant group run by two Korean dudes is better at making Korean food than Sushi.

I was actually a little underwhelmed by Ondo. Thought Domo Domo was wayy better.

Only if you're saying that Domo Domo isn't close to sushi. It isn't. The rice is so completely underseasoned that it's much closer to kimbap than sushi.
