Dash Japanese Tapas Sushi - San Mateo

First time here. Ordered two types of nigiri and both were underwhelming, don't know if it was a one off incident. The rice was not properly sticking to the nigiri piece, and fell apart as soon as we picked them up. The nigiri slices were very thin too. The shishito was decent and you can't really go wrong with it. The aburi saba was decent and nothing special. The good ones were the ika-uni and the baked scallops tapas but too tiny portions. price point was high for everything given the quality in general was average . I would not be overly eager to return.

Very cute place for sushi in a casual setting. We ordered a bunch of appetizer and they were both aesthetically beautiful and tasty. Highlights were the Dash Taco for visuals and Cartilage Karage for taste. For sushi, we ordered the crunchy roll and the sakura roll. The former was really good but the latter was a bit disappointing.Overall great food, service, and price would come back again.

Visited DASH for a friend's birthday dinner without a reservation on a Wednesday night. We didn't have to wait long and were seated pretty quickly. The space is pretty small but didn't feel too cramped even though there it was pretty busy at the time.My friend ordered salmon sashimi and Kaisen Don while I got Chirashi.The difference between the Kaisen Don and the Chirashi is that the Kaisen Don includes the daily specials of fish so it's always changing, and the Chirashi will always be salmon/shrimp/egg/scallop/tuna/yellowtail. It came with a salad.I enjoyed my meal and the way they seasoned the rice and my friend did too, but we both agreed that the pricing was a bit high for what we got.Overall I would return again. I would probably want to try their shareable plates next time as they seem to be what this place is well known for.

Skinniest nigiri I have ever seen. Service good place cool. Tapas good but don’t go for nigiri unless u want very small quantity for still very expensive price. Barely anything was not happyFood: 3/5

I really enjoy eating here.. it’s not sushi, It’s Japanese food… and everything on the menu is delicious ? their sake game is also on point! The staff is awesome ?Small spot but enough seating are.
