Dainobu

Good and Fresh Sushi. Grab and Go only. There is no place to sit. Great selections of Shabu-shabu Meats in the freezer. Lots of condiments to choose from. Sweet staff.

this place has been a staple for me when I was a student in the area. sushi is always fresh and delicious and at a great price point. staff is also very friendly! so grateful for this gem!

This place is so delicious. I had the beef curry over rice, for $10. It was a full and delicious meal.

For a small place they have a lot of great groceries to choose from! This place is well stocked. They have pretty much everything you would need. The people that work there are nice and very helpful! Definitely check this place out for your Japanese grocery needs!!

Good selection of Japanese foods, however we were also impressed with the small but diverse array of Japanese kitchenware items such as bowls and tea drinking cups. We bought several items here and the owner was pretty friendly and gave us a free charger, it may have been a local promotion that day.

Dainobu is a small-to-medium sized Japanese grocery that is filled with Japanese grocery items, snacks, and pre-prepared meals and smaller bites. the shop is well-organized, neat, and brightly lit, the prep-prepared eats are in the front and packaged grocery items are arranged via aisles in the back. there are a good number of staff if you can’t find something. i have only bought candy, snacks, and some of the pre-prepared foods. i’ve been pretty happy with all purchases here. the snack and candy selection is good. recently, grabbed a spicy tuna onigiri which was the portable comfort eat I needed after a long cardio session. the tuna and rice tasted fresh and was seasoned well. before that, i grabbed a Japanese boxed meal to heat up at home after a long day of errand-running on the west side. the quality of the curry beef over rice was quite good and tasty even thought it is essentially a microwaved (or stovetop) meal. the curry was flavorful, the beef was thin and tender, and the rice soaked up all those flavors nicely. the price $8.99 + tax is a total value for an easy weekend lunch or dinner when you’re too tired (or in my case too lazy) to cook. there are a variety of these boxed meals from sushi and sashimi to more savory meals that need to be heated.
