Doke Sushi - Murphys, California

Jamie Mayne

Food was incredible, and a very friendly staff! However, like almost any restaurant these days, it seemed to be operating in the absence of any support staff or manager, either of which would have allowed for expedited service, shorter wait times
and more turns of a table. I hope my visit was just a fluke, (pun intended) and maybe someone just called in sick that day. Either way, a good manager would have picked up the slack. Our server was incredible, and handled the shortage with grace.

Long overdue 5 star review, as we’ve been eating here for a few years now and have only had great experiences.

As a self-appointed sushi snob, I can tell pretty quickly and within the first bite whether it’s quality sushi, or better served in a mall’s food court - and this place passes that test and then some!

Fresh ingredients, amazing flavors, great ambiance, killer music, and friendly staff. What more could you ask for? Sure they book up pretty quickly and can be a little stringent on timing, but if you’ve eaten anywhere else at the caliber of this place, it’s to be expected to a certain degree.

Doke is by far the best sushi within a 50 mile radius, and I’d put it on par with some of the best sushi I’ve ever had - and that includes amazing restaurants along the coast, Bay Area, Hawaii, etc.

Do yourself a favor and stop by Doke next time you’re in the area. I assure you, you won’t be disappointed!

We did not have a reservation but were able to get seated at the bar pretty quickly.
I have been hesitant to have sushi in this area but decided to give it a try and am so glad I did!
Some of the best sushi I’ve had in Cali to date.

Casandra, Casandra, Casandra your customer service needs to be adjusted; attitude and ability. The service was extremely slow while you conversed on the side. The orders were incorrect and slow to the point that one of the guests had to get their order to go. The checks were presented incorrectly. Sake was delivered without glasses and meals were missing items.

Music needs to be adjusted to the level of comfortable conversation and the disco music doesn’t fit the ambience.

Too bad we won’t be back because the food is good.

Recommend ordering “to go” if you brave this place.

Hands down the best sushi in the entire area, maybe all of west coast. The owner/ Executive Chef was trained in Osaka/Koga Japan, and he brought his experience with him. Everything on the menu is to die for, and the Poke crisps will make you transcend into the heavens them selves. The sushi is immaculate, plating spot on, atmosphere is perfect. You owe it to yourself to eat here at least once in your life!

Modern sushi and Japanese cuisine with a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Wow. What a cool little spot. We came in right as they opened for their dinner hours and were lucky enough to catch a table. It seems like it is not a bag idea to have a reservation, at least on a weekend, because they were busy from the moment they opened. It is a very small space, so it gets crowded fast, and we can tell why. The food was excellent.

The whole experience was top notch. The laid back music on low in the background and the busy atmosphere gave it a real homie feel. Our server, Matt, was on his game and extremely friendly. He had a great feel for the crowd and was right there as soon as we even thought of a want or desire. I never believed in psychics before, but now I'm questioning things.

Price wise, it was definitely fair for the community it is in and what you expect from a typical sushi establishment. Then you eat the food and realize it is more than fair, it's a deal. The quality of the items on the plate and the skill at which they are prepared are very high end, but the price tag is not. I look forward to dining here again.

Have been a customer and supported this place for years. I haven’t been in for awhile, Came in and it was not a good experience. All though the Food is good. Service is horrible. Waitresses make you feel like you’re bothering them by being there. Takes them a long time to bring you drinks and to even acknowledge you. Very un welcoming experience due to our server. Very snappy.
Sushi chef is very nice though and he’s the only reason I may still ever come back. Dear owner please find new staff don’t give up on your restaurant!

Marvelous sushi gem in gold country. Top notch food, we visit everytime we're in Murphy's.

Spend the extra to get dungeness crab over crab salad, 10/10.
