Not the best. Rolls are 6pc, that’s why price seems lower in the menu. Average quality, not reach. Rice has brown color and you can feel it’s sour. The fish was fresh though.

It’s become a regular in our dinner rotation. Fish tastes fresh. If I had visiting friends, this would be one of the places I’d bring them. It’s a great sushi and sake place.

Arrived early before the crowd. The food we ordered are all tasty and fresh. Sashimi were great! We were amazed by the Gyusuji appetizer and every dish we ordered.
The staff were all very helpful and attentive. They came to check and refill our glasses of water. Very happy to come enjoy our dinner.

Came here on a whim on a Sunday evening and Hamano did not disappoint.

The American wagyu tendon was a great hot start to the meal and had a deep beef flavor. The oysters were huge and didn’t have an overly briny taste. The vegetable tempura was evenly battered and came with a wide variety veggies. The koshihikari rice that came with the chirashi bowl and nigiri had a great texture and there was no fake wasabi in sight. The fish wasn’t too cold, tasted fresh, and was definitely the highlight of the meal.

Definitely planning on coming back!

One of the best Japanese restaurants I’ve visited in SF. The sashimi is fresh and good. And a number of dishes wow me with diverse flavors and great presentation. It’s definitely a hidden gem for a good Japanese sushi and rolls night!

One of the best buds took me here for my birthday celebration back in February. She’d come here with her bf, from a local Bay Area ramen chef, who said he only goes *here* for his authentic Japanese sushi cravings.

Well, well. This spot definitely reminds me of others in the city, where you’ve got your authentic Japanese omakase experience bar-side, and the casual Japanese-American sushi rolls experience table-side. But let me tell you about this omakase experience. The flavors. The traditional mixed with the fusion. Yesssss.

I didn’t think each piece of nigiri could come out better than the next. Or even the cooked dishes! But they did. And that’s really saying something when you have that many pieces coming out and you gotta have each stand out. You can tell the chef has perfected his art.

The only downfall experienced that night was the slowness in each piece coming out. Chef was attending to another group of 7 sitting at the bar as well (they appeared to be regulars). However, he was very apologetic, and worked as quickly as he could. It did become a 3hr dinner, which was a bit longer than expected. Esp for my buds who came out from San Jose for a Sunday night dinner.

Either way, it was all that and then some. Hoping to return for another omakase experience in the near future.

Sushi is OK. I wish the fish was fresher. Rolls are just regular. Rainbow, Castro, Sunset, Alaska rolls were decent but not spectacular. Decor inside is cute and quaint. Service is good.

This place was fantastic! 4.5!! I sat at the bar and had a couple of rolls for dinner. I kept it simple. It was my first time there so I had California and Alaska rolls. They were delicious. The service and staff were very polite and fun to talk too. I highly recommend this restaurant for a quick bite or stay longer and have the sake sampler. Enjoy!

Photos from two separate nights but we truly love the sushi here and chef Jiro. Such a gem. Also tried a few things aside from sushi (karaage, tempura, ikageso) and everything is perfectly flavored and resembles Japan. Must try 🙂
