This was our first time going to Haru and we had such a wonderful experience. We went on a Thursday early evening around 5:30pm. Even though, we didn't have a reservation, the waiters seated us at the bar so quickly! Even at the bar, the service did not stop there - they frequently checked on us and explained every dish. We got four dishes between both of us and definitely did not expect the big portions! We were so full and satisfied by the end of the meal. All the fresh was so fresh. I do not think there was anything that missed the mark. The waiter/waitress would explain what fish we were eating and what small dishes were on the tray. Would 100% go back!! read more

Went for Friday lunch with the purpose of using our Amex Resy credits. We had a reservation but seemed like walk-ins were fine too. It did get packed pretty quickly. Food: Fried chicken wings 5/5 - this was a great start to the meal. Freshly fried with a light batter and great flavors, though a bit on the sweeter side due to the sauce. I liked that they separated the wing to 1 bone per piece to make it easier to eat. Gozen set with wagyu 4.5/5 - my husband got this and thought it was great. The small sides were interesting and added variety even if he didn't love them all. We joked that it's like an ANA/JAL business class meal Toro ikura uni don 3.5/5 - I initially wanted to get the gozen set with miso cod and an upgraded rice bowl, but I couldn't decide between toro and uni so I got this instead. Unfortunately, I regretted this for several reasons. One, I didn't realize the toro was minced - I really think they should specify that on the menu. Plus it just ended up being very monotonous and salty/fishy as some kaisendons can be. This part might be personal preference but I think I would've preferred the variety of a gozen set. It just really was not that enjoyable for $68. I ate half and took the rest to go. Service: This was somewhat of a mixed bag. Overall good with a few notable hiccups. The waiter who took our order wasn't the warmest or most patient when I had a question. I also waited a long time for my meal after my husband got his. We had to ask them to check on mine and it turned out that it was ready but just sitting on the counter. So all in all, would we return? I'm not sure. But if we did, it would mainly be for the gozen set. read more

Cute spot in Los Altos for lunch. Kid friendly with their own utensils and high chairs. We all got some variation of the bento and everything was fresh. Quite a bit of food but worth the price point. Staff is very friendly and were really nice to our babies. read more

Haru means "spring" in Japanese! Truly enjoy the lunch here. Nested on slow-paced downtown Los Altos, the well-designed vibe, the perfect set with fresh ingredients. It's above and beyond my expectations. Will revisit it soon! read more

Saw this spot on IG and decided to come for lunch. I came here knowing it was opened by the same group behind Hinata and Sasa in SF, so I was curious to see what they would do with this space, and I was not disappointed. The menu has a great range of options and I thought the pricing was quite reasonable for the quality. I would say though, the offerings is similar to Sasa - so if you've been before, you can expect the same quality. We ordered two drinks, gyoza, a roll and the cod and a Wagyu set, and all the items hit the mark for us. I also appreciated the variety on the menu from sushi to sets to a la carte items. There are plenty of options depending on what you're in the mood for, which makes this an easy place to come back to and try something different each time. The service was attentive and friendly, and the restaurant has a polished but comfortable atmosphere that makes it feel appropriate for both a casual dinner and a nicer night out. Really good food and great value for the quality. read more

Really enjoyed our meal at Haru! We ordered two dishes and split both between two people. It was the perfect amount and everything felt fresh, clean, and satisfying. // Wagyu Gozen Set Their gozen sets seem to be a popular choice here. It's essentially a full set with your choice of protein, rice, and an assortment of pickled side dishes. The wagyu was so tender and juicy! It had that buttery texture you want from wagyu without feeling overly rich or heavy. I also really enjoyed all the different side dishes. Each one was unique, and the acidity from the pickled vegetables paired especially well with the richness of the meat. // 12-Piece Chef Sashimi Everything tasted incredibly fresh, and there was a great variety of fish. I'm usually not a huge tuna person, but fresh, high-quality tuna makes such a difference. Really enjoyed every piece! Overall, such a clean and satisfying meal for lunch. Service was also fast and friendly. There's sushi bar seating or regular tables although it seems the tables are harder to get without a reservation. Would definitely come back! I'm interested in trying their omakase. read more

Wow! Can't believe i'd never heard of or tried this place. Found it on Resy and decided to give it a try. We walked in from the back and were greeted right away by chefs. Got seated at a booth and service was very prompt and detailed with the menus- let us know all the nigiri specials and pointed out things on the menu we could order. It feels very fancy and elevated inside. The AC felt so good, it being hot outside. They have a decent number of booths as well as small 2 seater tables and then plenty of bar seating. We got the agedashi tofu for appetizer, the cucumber mocktail, and and old fashioned to start and i got the omakase (included uni) along with miso black cod. Wow everything tasted AMAZING and LOOKED amazing! Like my omakase was an art work, and even the miso cod was beautifully presented and the cocktails were vibrant and tasty. We also ended the night with black sesame ice cream and it was nice and hard (how i like it) and had a really great flavor. Overall highly recommend and def want to come back! read more

We enjoyed our authentic Japanese meal here. I had the saba gozen set with 7 small bites which were exquisite (fried fish tempura, seaweed salad with shrimp, seaweed with pine nuts, two pieces of sashimi, pickled raw squid, raw eggs from some seafood (not sure), zucchini with creamy sauce). My husband had the Omakase sushi tasting of premium fish + a piece of wagyu beef which was his favorite. The pieces were all seasoned and has glimmered on like butter or oil applied on top. We also had the black sesame ice cream. We also liked the pot of tea we shared (sencha sakura tea) which is pretty rare find. Overall the experience was quite nice including the service. I do wish that the servers would explain the food like the gozen set and ice cream was not so plain or have more exquisite deserts like the main meal. The restaurant decor is modern and upscale. read more

Minor issue (putting in front hoping the owner notices): at least two of the fried wings were undercooked. We decided to take the rest home so that they could be cooked more while reheating . ---- A Japanese restaurant somewhere between saucy rolls and luxury omakase ... exactly what I need in Los Altos! We enjoyed everything we ordered (including the wings once reheated ). I won't rave about the wagyu or nigiris 'cuz every Yelper already did ... But I can't stop thinking about the takowasa (raw octopus in wasabi sauce)! It's so weird but pleasantly punchy. I haven't had it many times before and am now hooked. Came down to pre-tax $100 per person (we each ordered one drink). Very reasonable for the freshness, techniques, and amount of food. I can see myself either bringing friends (with good taste! ) here or stopping by for a lone fancy lunch, quite frequently! read more

Lunch for 2. - Ambiance (4*) Neatly decorated. Cozy. - Service (3*) Pacing slightly off. Shrimp head arrived after dessert. - House of Jin Cocktail, $18 (5*) Just the slightest hint of green tea, yet the whole drink maintained a clear color. Pretty cool. And very tasty. Japanese minimalism personified. - Wagyu Gozen w/ Uni Ikura Don, $78 (4*) Meat was cooked and seasoned perfectly. Uni Ikura Don was good. The tempura whitefish side was super delicate and tasty. Everything else felt kind of like an afterthought. - Ocean Trout Belly Nigiri, $8 (5*) Slightly seared. Dressed perfectly. Good rice. - King Salmon Belly Nigiri, $9 (5*) Same as above. - Black Sesame Ice Cream, $5 (3*) Clearly pre-portioned and frozen in the cup itself. Flavor was amazing, but it was off putting to see it frozen to the bottom of the cup, losing ice cream texture. - Value (3*) Probably would have been 4* if I had only ordered the Wagyu Gozen on its own rather than with the upgraded Uni Ikura Don, which ruined the value. - Final Word Pretty good experience overall. Will be back to try the Omakase. With cleaned up service and maybe smarter ordering on my part, this could be close to a 5*. read more

Was really excited to try the famous wagyu sandwich and ikura uni don, unfortunately was disappointed to find out that both were sold out. Hama-Toro roll is the only item on menu listed as "limited" and we were able to try that and were pleased by taste and presentation. They have some other unique dishes, the kisu chip was new to me and interesting. We weren't told of a specific last call time either until we asked and almost missed it. Would recommend calling in advance to check stock of menu items so you can avoid disappointment. Some areas of growth but otherwise a nice ambience and friendly staff. Ample parking on the back or try street parking. read more

Date of Visit: 8/1/2026 We visited the Haru Los Altos for lunch on a Saturday early afternoon for lunch. Four adults and two babies can fit in a four person dining table space. The server was nice and attentive, and bought us two highchairs to fit the table. Kani Chawanmushi $16 We got the chawanmushi with snow crab. The steamed egg was very soft and tender, with snow crab mushrooms and dashi sauce inside. Highly recommended. Wagyu Gozen Set $38 Husband got the wagyu gozen set, which includes seven small bites with miso soup and rice. The wagyu was cooked medium rare, seasoned with black pepper and salt and a piece of lemon. The seven bites includes tempura, sashimi, grilled eggplant, seaweed, asparagus and seafood. Toro Ikura Uni Don $68 I got the toro ikura uni over rice with sweet and fresh uni on the middle, and salmon roe and fatty tuna on both sides next to the uni. There were also mushroom, menma next to the rice. Wagyu Sando $42 Our friend got the wagyu sandwich with miso katsu sauce. read more

Happy to see a new Japanese spot in downtown Los Altos and happier it is not another omakase spot. Haru took over the former Bevri and specializes in gozen. They have two dry-aging fridges which the sushi chefs use to add a more unique flavor to their fish. They also have a variety of non seafood options including burgers. We had a decent experience as we enjoyed the food but service was choppy which they apologized and made up for. Hopefully things smooth out as we look forward to coming again soon. read more

Haru is a modern Japanese restaurant that recently opened in downtown Los Altos, which is slowly trying to grow its food scene. The service is slow (30 minutes for rolls!) but I can taste the careful preparation and effort that went into each dish and presentation was excellent. The waiters and bartenders are friendly. There was an older Japanese man (head chef?) who was very knowledgeable and explained the contents of the dish. Thank you for that :) FOOD: Miso Black Cod (5/5) - Loved how buttery the cod was, it melted in my mouth. It was served with edamame and a soy milk based puree. Spider Roll (4/5) - I don't love soft shell crab but this tasted delicious. I enjoyed the texture. the soft shell crab was cooked to order so it came out nice and warm. Citrusy Salmon Roll (5/5) - So bright and enjoyable. I really dislike when rolls are too big to eat in a single bite, so I felt that the roll here is manageable. Wagyu Gozen Set (5/5) - Yum! This feels like I'm in business class lol. So many fun sides. I felt like this was worth the money with all the side dishes and wagyu as the star of the show. I generally avoid wagyu but I enjoyed this set. Overall this was a great addition to downtown Los Altos and I'll come back just for Haru. read more

Haru is one of the newest and most popular sushi spots in Los Altos. We didn't have a reservation, but luckily they were able to seat us in the back. We ordered the Wagyu Steak Gozen, the Miso Cod Gozen, and a few pieces of nigiri. Each gozen comes with your choice of main dish, rice, miso soup, sashimi, mozuku seaweed, shrimp sunomono, whiting tempura, eggplant nibitashi and okra with sumiso. Every component was thoughtfully prepared and felt very authentic. As someone from Japan, I really appreciate restaurants that stay true to traditional Japanese flavors instead of trying to reinvent them. Haru does exactly that. I'm also a big fan of Sushi Jin, so it wasn't surprising that the nigiri here was excellent as well. While the quality reminded me of Sushi Jin, Haru is a bit more affordable, making it easier to enjoy this level of sushi more often. If you're looking for an authentic Japanese set meal or quality sushi in the area, Haru is definitely worth a visit. I'll be back to try more of the menu. read more

Saw this on tiktok and came for our 20th anniversary! Luckily i decided to reserve last minute because when we got there, there were no seats available! I was only able to reserve the bar but we made the most out of it. Our server which was the bartender as well, was very attentive even though he was really busy. The restaurant looks simple but lively. Definitely got busier during dinner time. We ordered the set with the eel and the wagyu. Love all the sides as well. It was so worth it. We also ordered the omakase. I always love when they explain which fish it was. Our favorites were the bluefin chutoro of course! And the artic char! But every single one was fresh and tasty. The roll we ordered had all the bluefin tuna goodness, and i wish i can have it everyday! read more

Modern interior, we sat at the sushi bar for a lunch. The haru gozen set were what we tried. The highlights are the grilled wagyu and Toro don. Both were melt in your mouth. Gindara cod was good as well. The little small appetizer dishes were delicious. The fried crab claws were tasty. My only critique is that the rice in the don is room temperature. Would be nice if it was served hot. The lunch set does take some time to come but is worth the wait. Service was friendly and they offered me a little basket to put my purse and belongings in like they do in Japan. read more

I had lunch with a friend, and ordered miso black cod set that came with 7 small dishes, rice, and miso soup. The small dishes were surprisingly authentic and good. They included takowasa (marinated raw octopus with wasabi), mozuku-su (seaweed in sweet vinegar), and nuta (sauce made of miso, vinegar, sugar.) Grilled fish was tender and the flavor didn't overpower the fish. My friend and I are both Japanese and we were impressed. The small dishes were all salty - which authentic Japanese should be, and you might want more rice to go with it. One let-down was rice. It was hard and dry, and tasted like rice from the day before that had been left in a rice jar overnight, and made me wonder how their sushi would be with this rice. It also had furikake on it, which cheapened it. Rice is immensely important for Japanese meal and this was very disappointing. Also this is nitpicking but the placement of dishes felt weird. In standard Japanese way, rice should be front left, miso soup front right, and all the other things in the back. But this is California so I guess I should shut up on this issue. read more

Came by for lunch the other day and it was a mediocre experience. Haru is a Japanese style restaurant owned by Chinese, based upon their health inspection report. Seems like this restaurant is a part of a restaurant group with other locations around the Bay. The menu featured typos such as some items were "fired" while other dishes featured "veggie." The receipt even called the restaurant a "japanese" (as a non-proper noun) restaurant. The website already expired and hours of operations were not posted on the window. Opted for the gozen set which reminded me of Business class dining on ANA or JAL. Opted for the Wagyu and Unagi. The Wagyu was excellent, cooked to a perfect medium rare and featured salt and pepper for seasoning. The Unagi Don was a letdown, especially the rice. The rice was very dry, much worse than the rice I typically get a 24 hour restaurants in Tokyo... The egg omlet seemed cold and prepackaged...The unagi itself was ok. The miso soup was also ok. The couple of fried crab claws felt frozen as I tasted some freezer burn to them. The execution of the small bites and sashimi itself was excellent though. ~$75/head after tax and gratuity for lunch. read more

Let's be real, sushi can be stoopid expensive. And, in Los Altos you either have your CA rolls or $200-$300 pp omakase spot. There doesn't seem to be any in-between until now. From the team behind SF's Hinata and Sasa, Haru soft opened this week in the former Bevri space. They aim to bring upscale, high-quality sushi at a more approachable price. And, they have a full bar. They accept rezzies but I couldn't find which platform they use so we did a walk-in. F O O D * Kisu Chips w/ whiting fish (4 pc - $18) Similar to Rich Table's signature sardine chips, a filet of whiting fish is woven into a thin, crispy potato chip served with a creamy tartar sauce. * Gindara Saikyo Yaki: Miso Black Cod ($22) Rich, buttery layers with crispy, caramelized edges. Simple and done right...and a good value for the portion. * Omakase Nigiri (8 pc-$63 x2) Served in two waves, the edomae-style nigiri had a good ratio of expertly cut neta (fish) to seasoned shari (sushi rice). Rice held its shape and you can feel the individual grains. I wished the nigiri were served piece by piece but to manage volume and keep the prices affordable, I get it. * Nigiri -- Kamasu: Seared Barracuda ($7 x2) -- Ji Kimendai: Goldeneye Snapper ($8 x2) -- Amaebi: Sweet Shrimp w/ fried head ($8 x2) -- A5 Wagyu ($12 x2) * Wagyu Sando w/ miso katsu sauce ($42 x2) Tender, intensely marbled wagyu in between toasted shokupan served with a side of umami rich, tangy tonkatsu sauce. The wagyu is coated in panko and fried so you can enjoy all the various texture contrasts. S E R V I C E Friendly, attentive, and prompt. I'm very clumsy and dropped one of the menus. As I went to pick it up, one of the kind staff rushed over to bring me a new clean menu. Very thoughtful. A M B I A N C E Sleek, minimalist dining area with an open kitchen, seven tables, sushi bar, and bar seating. Overall, Haru fills a much-needed middle ground in the area, quality sushi that feels elevated without the $$$$$ fine dining omakase price tag. read more

We caught the tail end of lunch service as walk-ins. They can get busy, especially if you prefer indoor seating, so planning ahead may be worthwhile. The quality of the fish was top-notch. We ordered a variety of nigiri, enjoyed every piece, and would gladly order them all again: 1. King salmon belly 2. Seared barracuda 3. Wagyu 4. Uni 5. O-toro 6. Amaebi 7. Unagi I also loved every appetizer we tried, especially the kisu chips. Several other dishes caught my eye, so I would definitely come back to explore more of the menu. They also offer lunch and dinner sets that seem like a great value. Overall, this is a fantastic new addition and a place I would happily go out of my way for whenever I feel like treating myself. read more

Made a reservation to come here to use my Resy credits on a Saturday. Recommend doing the reservation else drop in might result in an hour long wait though you can prob also do bar seating with less wait time. Overall the food was delicious and the portions are good for the rolls. I actually wouldn't recommend the Haru roll if you also want to try other stuff. The first piece was good but every piece after that felt very heavy since it was deep fried and huge. I like the Gozen - the wagyu was very well flavored and tender. First time trying the fish chips. The Hama toro roll has nice kick to it. Good service and the server was very thorough with the recommendations and explaining the menu. read more

A relatively new spot in Los Altos. Decent menu options. A popular place so make sure to make reservation or be prepared to wait. Out reservation was at 7:30 and already several items were out. Friendly servers but slow service and food timing could be improved. Our table was not a big drinker and definitely felt less attentive. Might try it again to check out a few items on the list. Due to location, the price is a higher. read more

This is another restaurant by Jin. I loved this place. Impeccable location, exterior, interior, and service. Food was great. I got the Gozen, which is a traditional Japanese set meal featuring a main dish, rice, miso soup and sides on a tray.

Haru Sushi has quickly become one of our favorite spots in Los Altos. The sushi is consistently fresh, the service is friendly, and everything we've ordered has been excellent. The standout, though, is the Kobe sando. It's absolutely incredible - crispy, buttery, perfectly cooked, and packed with flavor. It sells out repeatedly, so if you want to try it, get there early! We're so glad to have Haru in the neighborhood. It's a wonderful addition to Los Altos, and we'll definitely be back again soon! read more

Came here for lunch on Memorial day and was promptly seated. They have an extensive menu with an abundance of japanese dishes. Restaurant is very clean and I love the modern interior. Highlights: Scallop Delight makimono- the seared scallops were plump and creamy which was hoghlighted by the delicate dressing that lightly coated each scallop. King salmon belly- buttery and lightly kissed from the flames that seared each nigiri piece. Pure bliss. Wagyu katsu sandwich- the wagyu meat was decadent and just melted in each bite. The wagyu was well seasoned and did not need the sauce that was included on the side. Miso black cod- flaky, marinated well, and cooked to perfection. The sauce was velevety and balanced out the umami marinade. Everything here is delightful and I can't wait to try their other menu items. read more

Wanted this to be great, but it was just really good. Table service (our waitress) was awesome, but she was a bit overwhelmed as she was covering all the tables outside including a really large party. Food coming out of kitchen was a bit random (often the case with good sushi restaurants) to the point where one of our apps was the last dish served (and I wouldn't order the shishito peppers anyway as they need sea salt and had no flavor). Prices are on the high side of high for most items. I don't love sushi in general so was excited to see the waygu burger as an option. It was good but like something out of an Applebees ad where it came on a hot plate of melted cheese. And they didn't have ketchup (if you are gong to charge $32 for a burger, you should have ketchup). My wife and son loved some of the sushi (especially salmon citrus roll). Place is beautiful and nicely located on Main Street, but seems like a pretty steep premium. read more

Had a reservation for 6:30, arrived early and was seated promptly. We chose bar seating to maybe get a better view of the sushi chefs but there's not much to see from the bar/the wall is pretty high. Would probably go for table seating next time. Food: Appetizer - started with some fried squid legs which were great. Enjoyed the sauce it came with, was different than the usual sriracha mayo other places give. Toro sampler: we enjoyed every piece here, especially the king salmon belly. Hama-toro roll: fish was good, the roll itself was not too big Haru Gozen set - Wagyu + Mini chirashi don. Lots of variety, everything tasted great.

Came here about 3 weeks after their opening and there's a lot of great things with a few areas for improvement, thus the 4 stars. Let's start with the great things: Food - incredibly delicious. We both ordered the gozen set (miso cod and salmon as the main, along with chirasu and salmon/uni as the rice dish). Very fresh, seasoned well and wonderful variety - very traditional Japanese meal set. Definitely want to try the other options in the gozen meal along with a la carte items as the food looked so good as we saw other diners receive their appetizer/meal. Ambiance - beautifully designed, welcoming (both lighting and wood choice) with both a causal (booths) and hipster (bar area) feel. Service - attentive when you walk in - greeted and seated quickly. The areas to still work through Service - they are eager to take your drink order even before you really had a chance to look at the menu. Being a new place, you want to see the various menus they have and look over the cocktail/wine list. Even though you ask for more time they come back quick for both your drink and food order. On the flip side of overly eager / attentive, my meal came out 15 minutes before my hubby and no one was in sight to inquire with the status of his meal. Fortunately he said I could eat (while the hot food was hot and the cold food was cold) and that I did, else the food may not have tasted as amazing. We finally flagged someone down and she apologized profusely, checked on the status of his gozen set and after it was delivered provide a little context (soft opening a few weeks ago, still hiring staff, etc). I would say for the location and price, if this occurred after being open and getting their sea legs, I would have given 3 stars. However with being new and acknowledging kinks are being worked out, we appreciated that and thus the 4 stars. Looking forward to coming back and trying other menu items! read more

a much needed addition to the otherwise barren los altos dining scene. hilariously, they opened directly across from hiroshi (im probably their greatest opp). haru is by the same people behind sasa, hinata, and sushi jin. in fact jing-san from sushi jin was working the kitchen during our visit. service still needs work, we walked in and they sat us right next to the only other person at the bar bc "they'll probably get busy soon" um not really, only one other group sat at the bar by the window. just made for an awkwardly crowded meal, pls seat us at least 1-2 seats apart tf tempura was good but became a bit oily toward the end; some grated daikon would have helped cut the richness. uni toro don was surprisingly hefty and good quality. omakase was just okay, would opt for the uni toro don since they're almost the same price. nigiri held together well, fan of the shari. umi masu was a little fishy, chutoro was bland, liked the wagyu and barracuda. took about 30 minutes for the tempura followed by another 10 minutes for the don and omakase so they are a little backed up. rest of the dining room looks nice, will make a res next time so we're not awkwardly squished at the bar next time. read more

I walked in for lunch without a reservation and asked for a table for 8. The restaurant only had a few customers at the time. The server standing at the front immediately told us they didn't have a table for 8. I pointed out that we were happy to sit outside since I saw several empty tables in front of the restaurant. He then changed his response and said they were short-staffed that day and couldn't serve a party of 8. The attitude was what really bothered me. If they were really short-staffed, they could have simply explained the situation and offered us the option to wait or come back later. Instead, we were immediately turned away without any effort to accommodate us. I left feeling like they simply didn't want to serve us, which made me uncomfortable enough to question whether we were being treated differently. Very disappointing experience. read more
