Hana Sushi is a gem of a neighborhood spot in Bothell that always delivers a solid sushi…read moreexperience. It's cozy, welcoming, and has the kind of vibe where you can tell they've got a loyal following of regulars - and for good reason. We made a same-day reservation for dinner, which I highly recommend since it gets pretty busy in the evenings. The staff was friendly and attentive throughout. If you sit at the sushi bar, you can have a fun view of the chefs in action. We ordered three rolls - the TNT, Main Street, and Paradise. The TNT was the standout for me because of the flavor and right amount of spice. We're big fans of salmon nigiri, so we also got six orders (yep, 12 pieces total); it was fresh, buttery, and absolutely delicious. Prices for full rolls are right around average for the greater Seattle area. If sushi isn't your thing, they also offer a good selection of appetizers and other dishes. Whether you're popping in for a casual dinner or date night, Hana Sushi is a dependable, tasty option in Bothell that's worth checking out!

For food I had the Steak Frites and I'm so sorry to say that it just wasn't good, for the price point and just how well they do everything else, I expected better, the cut just didn't do it for me and they use different fries for this and it wasn't nearly as good as their happy hour fries, add to the fact that the sauce was miniscule. Guys if you can't slather your Frites then we have a problem. I will say though there was so many new items on there that I would love to try, so one dish is not going to stop me from coming and again our servers were awesome.

The fish varied in freshness and most folks at the table agreed that the seaweed had an odd taste to it that we don't normally see at sushi places. The mango cake on the dessert menu was the worst - so fake tasting and not even as cold as I thought it should be for a cake with cream. I may come back here but wasn't impressed.

The noodles held up really well. Good thickness and had that good chewy bounciness to it too. I would say the broth met expectations - rich flavors that may be a bit too salty for the unaware. I didn't see any offer to top off the dipping broth with daishi broth (soup-wari). Not a deal breaker though! The chicken kaarages were a little disappointing because they didn't lock down the texture. It was crispy for some part and kinda soft for others. Would just stick with their tsukemen or ramen options next time.

Good teriyaki, but I've definitely had better. It's hidden in a little strip mall behind a gas station and convenience store. It has your typical strip mall teriyaki place feel to it.
