Dojo, a new restaurant featuring sushi and Asian-inspired cuisine, opened recently at 423 W. 300 South, next to the Homewood Suites and just down the block from Rio Grande. So far, I've been impressed. --- The space is very attractive, with lots of stone and dark, soothing colors. And, the food and service have both been excellent. It's a great new addition to the downtown dining scene.
I'll be featuring Dojo in a full City Weekly review soon. For now, here's a first look at a few of the dishes I've enjoyed.
Pork Belly Ramen - yum!
Guchi Roll
Chu-toro
Wine designed specifically for sushi
Miso-sake marinated black cod
Oranges with plum wine for dipping, chocolate-peanut cookies made by the co-owner's mom
For reservations, phone 801-328-3333. Dojo is open Mon-Sat for lunch and dinner.
