Daigo’s food is absolutely delicious. The ji kimedai was outstanding, and the Homemade ice cream dessert (MUST TRY!!) at the end was the perfect finish. It’s easily one of the best Japanese restaurants I’ve had in the Bay Area in this price range.

Daigo is an outstanding sushi spot where everything—from the food to the atmosphere—is thoughtfully curated. The music sets the perfect tone for the experience, and the stars of the show, Kenny and Eric, are truly phenomenal. Their craftsmanship is evident in every piece of nigiri—each bite is perfectly balanced, satisfying, and made with incredible precision. If you appreciate high-level sushi with great vibes, Daigo is a must-visit.

Hamachi shots were insane. The tofu was some of the best I’ve ever had, super soft and fried just a bit for the perfect thin, crispy texture. The sauce for the tofu was also so yum!!! Crab was pretty good, though both the crab and tofu got soggy quickly due to the sauce. The o toro nigiri was honestly the best thing from this dinner. SO. TENDER. Salmon toro and Ebodai (butter fish) were also tender, but the o toro was unmatched. Honestly could’ve passed on the yellowtail maki, it was very rice-y but still good. Yuzu cheesecake was a great way to end this magical meal. We are moved.

One of the best hidden spot in Palo Alto. Staffs are super friendly and attentive. They have a very good list of fish and we decided to order off the menu over their Omakase. The mushroom tempura is crispy on the outside and soft and juicy inside. The sushi are prepared fresh cut, toasted, flamed, sauced. Very tasty. Each piece are good size with small amount of rice at the bottom, that’s how we like it.
There are many sakes to choose from and the prices are very reasonable.

Excellent quality Japanese food here. We tried the Omakase menu and everything was very good. Service was prompt and well spaced. You need a reservation on weekends for sure as it was very busy when we arrived.

A Cozy Spot with Seriously Good Food
Went to Daigo with my cousin last week and had such a great time. The vibe is super cozy—perfect for catching up or just enjoying a chill night out. I went for the omakase, and honestly, it was totally worth it. The price felt fair, and the quality of the food was top-notch.
They’ve got a nice sake selection too. I tried the one the staff recommended and it was delicious—smooth and easy to drink. Don’t leave without trying their house-made desserts! The ice cream, in particular, is amazing—really interesting flavors, not too sweet, and just the right way to wrap up the meal. Can’t wait to go back!

– Made a reservation by phone a few weeks in advance. They confirmed the reservation the night before by phone call
– Reserved an outside seat but when we got there we were informed the seat may be hot on a summer evening and we were given the option to sit inside. We chose to sit inside and were glad we did! Enjoyed the atmosphere. There are a few seats at the bar and then ~6 small tables inside
-We got the omakase- we were impressed with the variety of fish, the unique flavor, and how quickly the food came out. There was very little wait between the courses
-Had a wonderful time and really enjoyed the food

Daigo Sushi is a fantastic spot for anyone who appreciates high-quality Japanese cuisine and a relaxed yet refined dining atmosphere. I went recently with a friend, and from start to finish it was a wonderful experience. The restaurant itself has a calm and intimate vibe — perfect both for a quiet evening out or for catching up with someone special.
We decided to go with the omakase, and it was definitely the right choice. Each course arrived beautifully presented and perfectly paced, giving us time to savor every bite without ever feeling rushed. The fish was incredibly fresh, and the flavors were well balanced — clean, delicate, and memorable. Highlights for me included the otoro nigiri, which practically melted in my mouth, and the uni, which was rich and buttery without being overwhelming. The hamachi was also excellent, with just the right texture and flavor.
Beyond the sushi, the starters and sides were equally impressive. The miso soup was deep and comforting, and the tofu appetizer had a subtle crispness with a flavorful sauce that really stood out. For dessert, we tried the house-made ice cream, and it was a perfect finish — light, not overly sweet, and surprisingly unique in flavor.
Service was attentive and warm without being intrusive. The staff clearly know their menu well and were happy to recommend sake pairings, which enhanced the whole meal.
Overall, Daigo delivers on every level: food, service, and atmosphere. If you’re in the area and love sushi, I highly recommend making a reservation here. It’s easily one of the best Japanese dining experiences I’ve had in San Jose.

This is a hidden gem. Only a few seats indoors but there is an outdoor area with heating lamps in a tight space.
Ordered the omakase and had a wonderful dining experience. Sushi is fresh and delicious! Every entree was perfect and left the restaurant fully satisfied.

We had dinner here a week ago and had a lovely time. We arrived right when they were opening and managed to get a table. They have a few tables outside, the same amount inside, and a sushi counter bar. The staff were all very friendly and helpful during our meal. Both of us ordered the omakase and the fishes were all great. And for the price of $110/person it was perfect for a date night! They also include a sake pairing with the omakase for an additional charge. We went for a bottle of sale with our meal. I highly advise you to get a reservation because this place is very popular.
