Ordering sushi when not everyone eats raw fish

What Domo's printed menu says is cooked, why masago counts as raw fish, and how to order for a mixed group by asking the store.

Ask the store you are ordering from. Domo’s printed menu does not mark most items raw or cooked, and Domo counts masago as raw fish, so the people who make the food are the ones to say what suits a guest who skips raw fish.

What the printed menu calls cooked

The September 2026 menus name four items as cooked. Three sit under the Kahala heading “Sides, Cooked Fish”, and the fourth is a poke bowl printed with “(cooked scallops)”.

Item Price What the menu says
Hamachi Kama $15.95 1 piece, cooked fish side, Kahala
Furikake Salmon $16.95 1 piece, cooked fish side
Misoyaki Butterfish $20.95 1 piece, cooked fish side
Seared Scallop Bowl $19.95 E15, cooked scallops

Everything else on the menu is unmarked. That is not a claim that it is raw; it means the menu does not say, so ask.

Masago counts as raw fish

Masago is a small orange fish roe, and Domo counts it as raw fish. The California Roll, 8 pieces for $14.95, is topped with it, and Domo can make it without masago on request.

How to order for a mixed group

Start with a headcount of guests who are skipping raw fish, separate from your total guest count, and tell the store both numbers when you order. Size the whole order the same way you would for any group, using the starting numbers in how much sushi you need per person, then let the store say which items and changes suit the guests who skip raw fish.

Plan the order

Work out how many guests are skipping raw fish, call the store you are ordering from, and order online for your pickup date and time.
