Douzo Description:
The cool hues and geometric aesthetic that spell Japanese design are the first sign that upmarket sushi made its way into the Back Bay. The menu, of course, is the second. Composed mainly of appetizers from both the kitchen and the three-man sushi bar, nigiri and maki, it has all the standards but emphasizes eclectic options such as duck tataki, eel-and-coconut sushi and salmon-kiwi rolls. Although the place is spacious, with plenty of comfy booths, we still prefer to sit at the sushi bar and ask the chefs for their recommendations; when they say "toro," you'd better get the toro. The third sign, of course, is the typically pricey tab, but by then you'll already be sold. Service can be hit or miss and often involves flagging down a harried server.
