Relaxed dining experience at the sushi bar. Fresh sashimi and delicious dragon roll. The service is incredible with fresh green tea served by the attentive waitstaff.
There are 3 lunch and dinner options with hundreds of possible combinations due to their large selection of fish and rolls.

Very reasonable pricing, very generous portions of very good sushi. I really liked the volcano roll, the different tunas. Quiet, friendly atmosphere. I think it’s a good sign when you see Japanese people eating at a Japanese restaurant.

Went for dinner and got there sets. Reasonably priced for the portion size and pretty darn yummy. Restaurant was small but clean. Staff were attentive and sweet. Good date night option.

The food was tasty, however it is totally over priced and the portions are tiny. Is a small cup of seaweed salad as a side a joke or what? We ordered through Grub Hub, they forgot to send half of our order and were out of 1 item I ordered. When they called to tell me I spoke to 2-3 people before they could figure out what to offer me instead of cancelling my whole order. Customer service is a zero and the food was a 3.5. My 2 stars is generous.

My friend recommended we go here after much deliberation over where to go for a dinner reunion. My first time at Sono Bana and the experience was a memorable one. The waitresses and staff were so respectful and attentive. I got the sushi set (seaweed salad, two rolls, and 7 pcs of sushi/sashimi), while my friends got the dinner box special. The sushi tasted very fresh, and the presentation was solid. The only con about this place would be the parking, as it was pretty limited. Overall a great place to enjoy sushi and I will definitely be back (… with the bros of course)!

I had a really disappointing experience at Sono Bana Sushi. After being seated, it took 25 minutes just to get a menu. We then waited over an hour, and our food still hadn’t even been started. The kitchen seemed to be prioritizing only takeout and pickup orders, while dine-in guests were left waiting with no updates.
To be fair, our server was kind and kept apologizing, but nothing actually got resolved — just repeated apologies while we sat there hungry. Eventually, we decided to leave. I had heard good things about this place, but based on this experience, I can’t recommend it for anyone planning to dine in.

Beats many sushi restaurants in downtown New Haven. Fresh and reasonably priced. Very good value for money. Worth a trip to Hamden.

This is our favorite sushi in the area. After we moved, we’re too far out for delivery, but we’ll still often choose to pick up here over getting delivery from elsewhere. That is a testament to this restaurant because we can be pretty lazy. The spider roll is my fave.
