This sushi was delicious! We needed a late lunch after a day at the art museum, and this was perfect. The miso soup was great and the edamame cooked perfectly. My niece had the Orchid roll and she said it was the best vegetarian sushi she's ever had.The decor isn't anything super exciting and it has sort of a "dive" feel, but the food is so good you don't notice it. The service was fast and friendly.

The dumplings are to die for. I come here JUST to get those. I am not a big sushi person so i can't speak to how good their sushi is, but I'm sure it is just as great. I wish they offered more food options, but i'm not mad at sticking to dumplings. The inside is cute, it's like a hole in the wall type of vibe, but you CANNOT eat inside. It is takeout only. I would recommend stopping by if you're in the Fairmount area, it is just a short walk from the museum.

I was sad that this was a take out only spot (either I missed it on their website or it didn't say). The lunch special sushi was good- It didn't rock my world. The prices were very fair and the menu had lots of options, including great vegetarian choices.

Excellent sashimi, not many roll options. This place has really fresh fish and it's not drowning in all those disgusting Mayo sauces. The ramen is good too

Ordered takeout. The sushi was not fresh. I walked in and it wasn't that clean, weird smell. The sushi smelled funky when I opened it. Definitely not going here again. So so sad. We need more restaurants in fairmount !

Friday night sushi was a great success thanks to this place! Finding a sushi spot with ample vegetarian options is not always easy - this spot definitely wasn't having that issue! This is a short easy walk so ordered pick up over the phone with the attendant. They're also on PostMates if you choose to order via an app. We ordered the asparagus, avocado, the orchid (wrapped with crepe paper with mango, fried sweet potato and avocado) and their kanpyo rolls. In addition, we added on strawberry and green tea mochi for dessert! Depending on where you look, the dessert options are not always apparent but when we inquired over the phone, the attendant was very helpful in providing us the options - so be sure to ask! Upon arrival, it's a step down entry and it's fairly small on the inside. In COVID times, there is no indoor dining being offered at this establishment. This was a non issue for us but just an FYI. The service was great! We were promised a time when we placed our order over the phone but then received a call from the restaurant earlier than expected to notify us that the rolls were ready. This was a nice surprise so we were able to pick up earlier! Overall the rolls were ample for the two of us and the mochi was delicious! We enjoyed the orchid rolls the most. Thanks for the great service and delicious noms Dasiwa! Hoping to be back soon!

Dasiwa is an adorable sushi place. It's a great place to eat at if you're visiting the Art Museum, only a 7ish minute walk. I love their variety of vegan/vegetarian rolls. I've enjoyed the orchid roll: sweet potato tempura, mango and avocado (which apparently isn't vegan bc of the batter on the sweet potato, I looked past this because the batter makes of 2% of the roll and is fried a super hot oil.) Their rolls are very creative and equally delicious! Great place for dinner.

Dasiwa hits the spot when you're craving Asian and udon, gyoza, sushi or just need some white rice for take out because you're me and you're lazy to cook rice. It's a neat spot in the neighborhood. I've been here a few times and ordered take out numerous of times. The service has always been good.

This place is a bit pricey if you're looking for a nice dinner with friends or a significant other. It's tiny so be sure to call ahead of time with a reservation. Also PSA, THIS PLACE IS BYOB! Might just be me, but I love when places allow that. It's on the corner, and it's got a real hipster-y Asian kind of feel to it. It's cozy, cute and quaint. Service is super friendly, and they're quite the conversationalists. They're happy to make recommendations if you're torn between a few menu items and they're very well versed. I got the miso soup but it tastes a little off...definitely not what I was expecting for miso soup so I wouldn't personally recommend. The rolls come JAM PACKED and are quite the mouthful. Fish taste pretty fresh, and it's the perfect texture and blend of sauces and ingredients. I ordered the Mermaid Roll and the Dasawaki Roll, both were incredibly pleasant and their two most popular rolls. I can definitely see why, it was delicious and so enjoyable. I was full by the time I finished and extremely pleased. The check was quite a bit more than I thought the meal was worth but I'm not dissatisfied by my meal. Might return, but I'd want to check out other places before returning.
