About this business
This Japanese restaurant that opened its doors back in 1976 hasn't lost its quality - or its popularity. Hatsuhana is often packed, especially during the lunch hours when the corporate crowd streams in. Authentic fare of raw as well as cooked Japanese cuisine is on offer. - broiled cod marinated in sake paste, fatty tuna, tekka don and the tempting sashimi and teriyaki dishes can be either enjoyed amidst the bright wooden interiors. It is also possible to take away.

They do try - I'll give them that – It's an age old story - someone who tries hard but has no talent competes in a world of those who have the talent but rest on their laurels. Still, the hard worker will never be the best. Such is the case with Hatsuhana. I did not eat in the restaurant, but had food delivered so I cannot speak to the decor. Whether the fish isn't of the highest quality or the chefs are not quite of sushi artist stature, but this restaurant turns out depressingly average, or perhaps slightly above average s... read more
Just like Hatsuhana should be – Ever since Chicago Hatsuhana closed several yrs ago, Im struggling to find a good sushi houses in IL. I had a trip to NYC during August and of course we wont miss the opportunity to visit Hatsuhana. I cant say its the best Sushi restaurant in NYC coz I dont live there. But I guarantee you if you put this Hatushana in Chicago, itll be the best Sushi house in the entire IL. IL has some good Sushi houses owned by Japanese chefs and some of them worked for Hatushnana but when comes down to the fre... read more
Good but not great sushi – I really like the decor in this restaurant, and the staff is insanely friendly... EVERY member of the staff says hi to you in Japanese (which I'm not going to attempt to spell) when you walk in, and they do a great job of checking in on you without hovering. Their miso soup is outstanding, but the sushi was a little disappointing. They give you quite generous pieces of fish for the sushi which is far longer than the rice (but they could use a little more rice actually), but the salmon definitely wa... read more
Best Sushi in NYC – Sit at the sushi bar for some top notch authentic sushi. I have never been disappointed. This is one of the best places in NYC for real sushi, and prices are reasonable considering the quality they serve. If I'm craving some good pieces, I would definitely come to Hatsuhana over any of the other high-end sushi restaurants in the city. When ordering the anago, get it "sawa-ni" style. Mouthwatering...
A sushi pioneer that's still going strong in midtown. – The Scene Opened in 1976, this two-level sushi and Japanese restaurant continues to attract a hearty following of midtown professionals and business travelers. Each floor holds its own sushi bar in addition to table seating, and is decorated with spring green walls, light woods and bright, rice-paper-coated lighting. The service is professional and brisk. The Food Creatively cooked dishes occasionally outshine the raw selections. An appetizer of broiled cod marinated in... read more
Good, but PRICEY! – The selection of fresh fish is great here. I've been to this restaurant about 10 times and the quality of the sushi is conistantly high. The sushi chefs that I've had have always been very skilled. Service is good, however, there have been times where communication was a problem(langauage). With that said, the price is very steep. For a dinner of 3, with no alcohol, our bill was $450 for about 60 pieces of sushi. I haven't had the other dishes/entrees and cannot comment on the overall food of the restaura... read more
Decent but not great – Hatsuahana is OK, but for the same price you can go to Sushiden a short walk away and experience better food, atmosphere, and service. I tried Hatsuhana for lunch last week because Sushiden was closed, and I was generally disappointed. Sushiden has a much cleaner, spaced out feel, making its atmosphere superior. It feels like there are more staff members per customer at sushiden, and both the quality and selection at sushiden is considerably better. As stated before, the prices are very similar. It jus... read more
The One and only – I really have to hand it to Hatsuhana. No other restaurant approaches authentic sushi as passionately as they do. Despite tremendous pressure from these so called "trendy" and "hip" sushi boutiques to abandon their art & change their format, Hatsuhana has preserved their concept. I admit that times have definitely changed but Hatsuhana's excellent sushi has not. They're still the only Japanese restaurant to have ever recieved four stars in the New York Times, and their sushi continues to prove why.
