Excellent sushi in an unexpected location. Dawa is a food truck in a funky food trailer park off Burnet. Which belies the level of food you are about to experience.The venue and the service are the epitome of no frills.All the effort. All the attention. All the care. That goes to the food.My kids loved the mixed options platter where my son discovered a love for octopus ?.There are many sit down establishments that charge quite a bit more that could stand to learn from this humble but mighty food truck.The gyoza were a huge hit as well.We will be back.(There is a shared Playground: it is oddly and very unsafely situated within the parking lot while nice to have a playground be careful of cars immediately outside the play area - this is no fault of the business it is owned by the space they rent from - but parent beware.)Vegetarian options: Did not feel like many “non-fish” options.Dietary restrictions: They can do sashimiParking: The food “trailer park” has parking - but it can quickly overflow at peak times.Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly for kids who love sushi.Wheelchair accessibility: Not super accessible/ the lot is poorly paved.

Service was so slow I would never come back. It’s not worth it. We came by on a Saturday night, no line, empty lot, our order took an hour to come out. The sushi was mediocre and my fried rolls were fried in bad quality reused oil, it was not appetizing. I don’t get the good reviews, it seems like people who have never had sushi before came by and gave them rave reviews. Seriously the wait is ridiculous. I do not recommend.

Really great sushi at a reasonable price! The owner is really friendly as well. Just be prepared to wait on the weekends because it seems to be pretty popular. We waited around 90 minutes on a Friday night but we’ll be sure to order ahead next time.

Super good sushi. 10/10 some say to order ahead to avoid the crowds, but I had 0 issues when I visited. I guess it depends on the time/day you visit. There is a sign at the window that says everything is made fresh as it's ordered, and there's only 2 employees so there might be a small wait. So please be kind to the employees. Highly recommend

Love the food trailer park vibes. Not a lot of seating but definitely enough around the park as a whole. Food was delicious, quick, and the staff was very friendly. Will be going again!

There were only the two very sweet owners working on Friday night so the wait was over an hour long for what I don't think are difficult items to make. Flavors were pretty bland for the sushi (Sakura and jimi rolls) but in the plus side it did taste fresh. I probably could have made a very similar kimchi pork fried rice at home. There was plenty of parking in the lot which is nice for a food truck park.

Great sushi but the wait was over 1.5 hours at a food truck. Will be ordering online next time

Dawa Sushi is a hidden gem of a food truck. The owners are always so sweet and polite to their customers.The menu has a lot of variety, which I love. They serve everything from Korean, ramen, udon, sushi, and boba. The sushi is absolutely incredible! One of my new favorite rolls is the candy cane roll. I also really enjoy the spicy tuna tacos that are topped with a little spicy mayo and tobiko. The spicy tuna has just the right kick.There is a cute little covered dining area outside of the truck to sit and eat or wait at. All of the food is made with love and takes a minute to prepare but I promise it is more than worth it. I highly recommend this place to anyone wanting to discover a unique sushi place!
