Hasaki - Sushi Bars Near Me - New York, New York

I was downtown and craving sushi. As I was walking around Hasaki came to mind for its quality and affordable price pt. I don't have issues with paying money for quality but wasn't willing to pay over $100 for this meal. It's hard to find quality and reasonable prices. Hasaki came to mind. They had a lot of "today's specials" but I just opted for a sushi/sashimi regular. It was decent and definitely hit the spot. I didn't care for the cucumber roll though. They could have substitute it for something else. read more

Loved, loved, loved their chef's choice sushi selection! We didn't have a reservation, but managed to get seated at the sushi bar in about 15 minutes on a Friday night, which was extremely surprising. The selection was about 8 pieces of sushi and a final roll. We had the chef serve each one after it was made instead of all at once. I definitely liked our decision since it gave a sense of anticipation for the next piece and it also allowed enough time to savor the piece we just had. Each was one divine!! I most distinctly recall the raw shrimp piece as it had me reminiscing about the drunken live shrimp I used to eat at Chinese restaurants in Flushing (they don't serve them anymore..anywhere). We also ordered a bottle of sake which complimented our experience very well. Props to their sushi chefs! read more

Sushi for 2 is stunning in appearance and flavor. Tuna nigiri was a highlight as was the yellowtail and scallion roll that it comes with. Plus you get 1 roll of choice-try the seared salmon with roe and shiso. read more

BEST HIJIKI!!!! AND BEST DINNER VALUE FOR PRIX FIXE Around the bend from Sharaku and downstairs is this hidden gem. The Twilight Dinner here is even a better value than Kamui Den's and up there w/ Basso56's Lunch Special. I kid you not. You get a feast for $20. I went here due to my friend Ting's oh so reliable review. I was going to order the Gindara for $15 but was comfortably full after our meal that I didn't have to. I would highly recommend this deal to those who are interested in an early supper. The quality far surpassed what I would have imagined, as the clientele is predominately caucasian. It doesn't hurt that the green tea was good too =) TWILIGHT DINNER ($20) [5:30pm-6:30pm daily] -Salad - ginger dressing, nothing out of the ordinary -Miso Soup - they used red miso in this, a tad salty as that's standard, very good -7pcs Sashimi (2pcs fluke, 3pcs tuna, 2pcs salmon) - pcs of salmon were small but good, rest were avg -6pcs Tempura (eggplant, 2 shrimp, carrot, fish ball, broccoli) - very light and airy, fresh panko, yum! -Hijiki - BEST HIJIKI I've had to date, better than Soba-Ya's and Tsukushi's! -Steamed fish ball - served in clear broth, very good -Grilled Salmon - a bit more well done than I would have liked, thick chunky piece, just OK -Braised tuna w/ mushrooms - tuna (roughly 4 small pcs) was flavorful, sauce was so good I poured the rest over my rice -Bowl of rice - good rice -Dessert - fresh fruits, or choose from vanilla/green tea/black sesame ice cream (from Ciao Bella) - more like gelato, opted for the black sesame - tasted the seeds!, as the green tea from ciao bella isn't as dark. Total came out to $25/pp after everything Pics: http://www.meetup.com/teamfoodie/photos/484210/ read more

One of my favorite Japanese restaurants in NYC because it's about as authentic as I've seen so far. The miso soup is different, but better, because there's just more flavor to it. They also have seafood chawamushi, which is steamed eggs with various seafood ingredients in it. I hardly ever see in Japanese restaurants in the US serve it. It's nostalgic because it's something I ate while growing up. If you're looking for Americanized sushi rolls, you won't find them here. Hasaki serves authentic Japanese cuisine. read more

Definitely NOT your average East Village 1/2 price sushi place for American-style gluttony! My first visit here was for lite bites and a bottle of sake - about $75 + tip for 2. Left unexpectedly full, and completely satisfied with the high quality of sashimi. The red miso soup to start was a clear indication that this establishment aimed to serve palates superior to those frequenting the aforementioned 1/2 price joints. The clam sashimi appetizer...drool....granted I am not the most sage nor experienced in high end sushi, but this was deeeeeelicious; 5 varieties of clam, so fresh it was a shame to even dip any pieces in soy sauce, and impeccably cut to highlight the essence of each type of clam. There is a twilight dinner special available until 6:30pm, which i cringe to unjustly describe as a glorified bento box. Salad to start, with a carrot-ginger dressing that makes you realize you have never had a real carrot-ginger dressing prior to the one made here. The red miso soup, followed by a choice of sushi or sashimi (very fresh, about 8 pieces), and a "box" consisting of: shrimp and veggie tempura, seaweed salad, mushroom salad, egg souffle dumpling, and a portion of broiled salmon. The tempura was perfect. The seaweed salad, much like the dressing, opened my eyes to what seaweed salad should be. Nothing ecto-green color to say the least! Skin on the salmon was crisped, and everything was gracefully put together. The finale was a fresh, sweet fruit platter of melon, strawberry, kiwi, pineapple, and orange. How much, do you wonder? $20 per person. This was worth SO much more, considering the regular sashimi goes from $4-7 per piece! Needless to say the modest presentation belied the incredible amount of food. Excellent service on both visits. sidenotes: - the female AND male bathrooms boast a ToTo toilet, happy day - by the time we left at 7:30pm on a Wednesday, there was a full line for a table - not wheelchair accessible read more

Do not come here. (Disclosure: this is probably my favorite restaurant for the last ten years.) While I might love it for its authenticity, high quality ingredients, overall subdued elegance and rock-solid consistency, I just don't think it's the kind of place that will satisfy your particular needs. For example, I am afraid you might not appreciate the service. I have always been satisfied with it, but then I like when servers are not overbearing, don't try to make small talk or ingratiate themselves. That is just me--I am peculiar like that. And the menu, even though every item on it might be thoughtfully conceived and skillfully executed, it is a rather spartan menu, free of anything trendy or bastardized, and you might find that boring. While they might offer your usual sushi bar-restaurant staples such as salmon teriyaki, they insist on doing so in their own way, with an emphasis on the quality of the fish, and perfect grilling technique. It's not for everyone. In fact the "teriyaki" sauce is served on the side and instead of being sweet and syrupy, it is thin and delicate. Listen, that every sushi chef here is real Japanese doesn't change the fact that this is basically just your straightforward sushi bar restaurant. It doesn't change the fact that they don't do a Dragon roll here. Hell, you can't even get so much as a basic Rainbow roll in this joint. And by the way, the nigiri sushi here is small--so small, you can eat a whole piece in one neat bite. You've been warned. And even if their tempura is the best I've had anywhere, in the world--what are you going to do with deep-fried gingko nuts, shiso leaves, and other such Japanese specialities? Not much, probably. Then there are these weird little details like the miso soup. Unlike at just about every other so-called Japanese joint around here, their miso is dark red, and it's based in a deep, smoky, full-flavored dashi broth, and garnished with some kind of Japanese clovery greens--to this day I don't even know what they are and I'm just afraid stuff like this will be troublesome for you. No, unless you happen to be the kind of fringe weirdo who appreciates authentic Japanese food that is skillfully prepared and delivered with a consistency so dependable it's almost boring, you should avoid this place. read more

I have been here for so many times. I decided not going to this place anymore from now on! Ordered omekase sashimi for 2. The quality of the fish is so bad!! Fishes are with bones and tasted so un-fresh. Waiters were delivering the plate over customers head. Unbelievable!!! read more

"Amazing sushi! They have a miso soup unlike any I've ever had. Dark miso with a smoky flavor- it has replaced chicken soup in my affections when I have a cold. Their seaweed salad is like having a mermaid lovingly handpick a bouquet with 5 kinds of astoundingly fresh seaweed topped with a lovely understated but savory dressing. The fish is always fresh and they don't use imitation anything. I have a delicate palate for fish and I have never had a piece of sashimi there that I didn't love. ***as you can see i loved this place (formerly 5 stars) i am so bummed that i have to knock some wattage off of the starry glow that this place has had in my heart for so long but i cannot stand by and idley watch them cut their pieces into slivers of fish while jacking up the prices. i have dined here a few times in the past couple of months hoping my tuna portions were a fluke (that was bad, i know) but alas it is the end of an era. the fish is still wonderful and fresh but who cares if you leave with a growling stomach and grumbling under your breath. AND they've even gone to the trouble of buying new miso soup bowls that are smaller than the ones they had for the past 9 years - so what, they can conserve on soup costs? what's the mark up on soup these days? how much could they possibly save? maybe they thought nobody would notice- they should know their dedicated fans better. i'm very disappointed and frankly a little sad....no i am not crying i have allergies okay? leave me alone. god." read more

Don't let the 4 star rating fool you, this sushi is not worth it. The fish didn't taste fresh, the sushi had far too much wasabi, and everything seemed like it was thrown on the plate. I've eaten here before and it was alright, but the quality has declined in the past year. read more

My experience at Hasaki was life-changing. Sexual. Amazing. Okay, maybe that's exaggerating, but I've had a lot of Americanized, mediocre, cream-cheeseified sushi in my life and this was not that. I wanted to go to a place with my partner that offered omakase, as I've never had it before (and the thought of being trusting the chefs with their discretion as to what to serve was at the very least, exciting). They did not disappoint. We went on Mother's Day, a Sunday, so I was expecting it to be a little crowded. Lo and behold, we had to wait "20 to 25 minutes" to be seated. The hostess seated a party of two that arrived after we did before my partner and I, but to quote him, "that was the most Japanese guy I've seen all day", so maybe the guy she let in had an in with the restaurant (not to mention he had his elderly mother with him). No worries, it wasn't too long of a wait until we were seated and greeted with hot towels. They seem to have a large selection of beverages, to which my partner opted for a beer. It was nice and light. We ordered the omakase for sushi and sashimi and unbeknownst to me, I was well on my way on a journey of food ecstasy. We first received our soup, a delicious red miso garnished with tofu bits and cilantro. This ain't no powdered shit here. Then, our server came out with the sashimi, which consisted of novelty items (at least, for a person who refers to my sushi preferences as "I like the red one") such as shrimp from Madagascar, octopus (chewier, but good!), a horse mackerel salad with ginger and cilantro (that got its own plate for soy sauce for dipping) served on a leaf on the fish itself, flounder from somewhere-not-here, and fatty tuna (lordjesushelpmethatwasamazing). The presentation was gorgeous enough to make the characters from The Little Mermaid bawl. And lest you think I identified the fish all by myself, the server was well informed of the food and let us know what each thing was after he set the sashimi down in front of us. The only thing I didn't really like was the shrimp heads (super super fishy and the thought of eating brains of what is basically the cockroach of the sea makes me queasy), but I ate one anyways because why would I not when I paid $120 for the meal? Then, the sushi. I'm salivating from my mouth as I reminisce about it. It was served all at once and our server once again explained what some of the lesser-known items were on the plate. My apologies here because I can't remember the specifics of the nigiri, but we had some sort of clam, salmon roe, eel that literally melts in your mouth, the tuna once again, this time marinated in soy sauce, and a white fish that was complimented by a dab of (real!!!) wasabi underneath the slice of fish. The rolls consisted of just vegetables and rice, one with cucumber and sea leaf and the other with some sort of squash. Both were delicious. Everything was delicious. We saved the tuna for last, an epic last high note on the authentically Japanese symphony that is Hasaki's omakase. I was basically in tears after our meal, as the realization hit me that that I had just experienced the sushi that I would compare all other sushi to for the rest of my life. Once my emotional breakdown was over, we were served some hot green tea and given the dessert menu. I ordered some black sesame ice cream with red bean sauce. It was great. It actually had black sesame in it. Also, the spoons were adorable. The only thing near to a complaint that I have is that the service was kind of average. This is understandable, as I'm sure they get plenty busy with the quality-to-price ratio that they offer. My server wasn't friendly by any means, but definitely attentive and didn't badger us to get on with our meal, giving us enough time to enjoy our food and certainly not negligent. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place. You won't be gorging yourself on the portions, but I left feeling satisfied, not full. I also didn't die from eating raw fish--everything was fresh, clean and delicious. Sure, the $60-per-person omakase price point may off put you a tad (though I believe that's a pretty good deal in NYC for the quality I had), but they have other options that were much more affordable. They apparently also deliver and do pick-up! I'm glad I came and will be back for more. read more

At $40 per person the Omokase at Hasaki was one of the best recent sashimi experiences I've had. They began with a nice, uncommon touch - a savory red miso soup. The chefs offered succulent & large lumps of melt-in-your-mouth toro, Aji (horse mackerel), a whole urchin shell tumbling over with luscious uni, kanpachi (a yummilicious fish kind of reminiscent of hamachi and red snapper), a pile of dainty sweet shrimp, and real wasabi!!! The place is a small & cozy little spot staffed entirely by lovely Japanese people, the service was attentive & courteous, it was a delight in every regard. I tend to be critical of these little E. Vill sushi joints as many of them are sub-par, this is not one of them. Go. read more

When I was little and went to stay with some Francophile relatives in Trinidad, I remember making fun of, and being fascinated by, their bidet. Hasaki has a bidet-like toilet, or more pointedly a Japanese-style toilet with warming water jets and an air blower. But enough about bathrooms, you don't go to Hasaki for the bathrooms. You go to Hasaki for their sushi, the slightly hidden and quiet location and the large teacups with Sumo Wrestlers etched into the sides. I've been here several times with a friend of mine. We both order the very tasty, rich and "brothy" (that's totally not a word) Miso, then split a plate of sushi, rolls and sashimi...and when I say split, I mean she eats the sushi and the rolls and I eat the sashimi. Occasionally, we'll get some fish or spicy chicken; which always makes me smile because I went to high school with a girl someone had dubbed, "Spicy Chicken," (as in, "dude, that is the spiciest chicken I have ever seen!"). Their servers know what they're doing, and they do it very well. No attitude, no raised eyebrow at the ordering of a particular dish, no hovering over your table waiting to snatch the check and shoo you out the door. In short, there's a reason I keep coming back. read more

This used to be my favorite sushi place in the city until I started to have bad experience in there, mostly rude staff, it always seem to be the same people and the same problems every time I come back, if only they could be as friendly and professional as Sobaya this place would be amazing... read more

I have been going here for many years and I have always been a huge fan. I can tell you honestly that I have spent many thousands of dollars here - perhaps the most telling endorsement I can offer. Sushi chefs and wait staff (several I consider friends) have come and gone...kitchen staff have come and gone...even the crusty manager who was there since it opened in the 80's left a few years back to return to Japan. Regardless of these changes, this place continues to deliver the goods! Great food (both sushi bar & kitchen) and I have only had ONE slight problem with the service in ALL that time, due to an unfortunate but forgivable language breakdown. The little things mean a lot and this is where they excel: - For example, shrimp dumplings don't sound so exciting, but their version has this grated batter and they are GOOD. - Another example is that the miso soup rocks - it's dark, red miso, NOT the standard tired old miso that's pretty much everywhere else. - Ever order a salad at a Japanese restaurant? Let me guess, they almost always have the EXACT same carrot/ginger dressing (that's frequently too sweet), right? Well, the salad dressing here is awesome and a bit tangy. If they bottled it, they would have another solid revenue stream. - Ever order a pickle plate (oshinko)? It's almost always the same right? Some yellow, some orange, some green. Well, at this place it's a bit different and unique - not knowing the names, I'll just say they have more diverse colors. - This was the first place I ever ran across rolls wrapped in cucumber (they call them "Kinuta") which are terrific. - They always have some unique fish and the basics are always terrific. - Their daily specials always have something that actually are special. For example, as Winter approaches it will be a variety of mushroom preparations. - The current senior sushi chef has his own take - I believe they call it Tokyo-style sushi. It is unique (soy marinated tuna, a well executed, labor intensive tamago and several other tasty inclusions that you don't even need soy sauce for) and well-worth trying for the change of pace alone. - Everything is well presented. Yep, as some reviewers have pointed out, the sushi/sashimi can be on the small side, meaning THEY DO NOT serve the gargantuan, "biggy-sized" sushi served at several other establishments (NOT in Japan)...and you have to wonder how some of those other restaurants can afford to give you such large pieces(?). So my advice is to order a couple appetizers/side dishes if you're hungry. If someone in your group doesn't like the raw stuff, the kitchen food is solid...even the chicken teriyaki kicks butt. I don't avail myself of it, but they also have a $20 early bird that is a pretty sweet bargain, including a bit of everything. My last point is that the Zagat food ratings for Hasaki are definitely 2 points lower than deserved (22 should be 24)...trust me, I didn't get fat off of eating at McDonald's. To repeat, the little things add up to something far greater in total...and that's what this place has always accomplished. Maybe I shouldn't have been so glowing with the review...so do me a favor and just don't get there before I do. read more

I have nothing good to say about this restaurant. We had an okay experience. Really slow and bad services, and the foods are way over priced $$$. The waiters are so inexperienced. They don't even know what is in the chef special dishes n' simply said the chef doesn't share with them either. Then we got the wrong check at the end. We will never come back to this restaurant again. read more

I live in the neighborhood and hadn't eaten here for a while. I have visited Japan and have many Japanese friends. I know what good sushi is. I ordered the sashimi platter. I was given the "geijin special" that is food for non-Japanese people. The fish was stale and tasteless. Such a waste of money. Also the chefs behind the counter are cold and unfriendly. The whole point of sitting at the counter is to have some interaction with the people working behind it. I know where to get good Japanese in New York so I will never return to Hasaki. read more

Great food, great value. Perfect neighborhood staple. No fuss no scene just really great fresh sushi. I went for lunch with a friend and had a lovely meal, felt full and spent less than $20. Absolutely go. Totally worth checking out. read more

We had the twilight special. They gave us plentiful of tempura (2 shrimp, eggplant, carrot), hijiki nimono, rock shrimp, sweet potato nimono, 6 pieces of sashimi (tuna, snapper, salmon), akadashi miso soup (rarity outside Japan...complete with sansho pepper), salad, rice, and dessert. The quantity alone is impressive, but their tempura was probably the best I had outside Japan. Neither soggy, nor floury-powdery, crispy on the outside, sealing the flavor and moisture of the ingredients inside. Their seasoning all across the board is subtle yet flavorful: essence of Japanese cuisine. I also cannot say enough about akadashi miso soup. The red miso, combined with the bonito broth, creates a perfect harmony of a soup, and sansho brings out the depth of the flavor even more. Their service is pure clockwork; our green tea cups kept refilled without our noticing. Hats off to this old-timer Japanese. read more

Given wait time of 20 minutes for a table. After 20 minute wait, told no table. Mismanagement never compensated for bad service.

Easily one of the best sushi restaurants in Manhattan. The food quality rivals their more expensive competitors (think Ushiwakamaru, etc.) read more

My favorite place to eat fresh sashimi. Casual, friendly, pricy but worth it. Mori the moody sushi chef and all the wonderful staff. I have never been dissappointed, consistently fresh and a great place to dine with friends or alone. read more

Salty rolls on the small side with too much rice for my liking. Tuna looked like excellent quaity tho.

Food here is good but the service is really bad. To be honest, I've never seen a Japanese restaurant with such bad service. When I say "bad service", it doesn't mean the actress is rude-- I mean they Don't Offer You Service At All. I haven't finished the salad and the waitress came put the entree on my table. She seems simply want us guests to finish the meal ASAP and leave. She never came to our table again afterwards. She seemed indifferent and never even looked at us, or anyone. With all the heavy make-up, she thought she is beautiful and is the queen who reins. If you need more water you have to raise your hand and ask for more like a kindergarten child. I'd rather stand up and serve myself than having her fake eyelash dropped accidentally into my soba... read more

Totally passable but nothing special for both the food and experience. It's casual and reasonably priced and that's the experience you should expect. Miso glazed cod, cold soba, and sashimi were all pretty decent. read more

Our server was very knowledgeable about Japanese food, and was extremely helpful, however, while the quality of food was good, I can not understand the immense hype this establishment has for its price quality ratio. We ordered some thin meat, excellent, but nothing to die for. Spinach that can be done at home, sushi was good, but not better than other places. Personally, I suggest to go elsewhere. We spent close to 150 a pop for 2 spinach, 3 slices of meat and 4 sushi rolls each.. wtf.. read more

i die for this sushi place. and it's such a bummer that i haven't reviewed it yet, since i've been going here for years. the first time i came here was maybe about seven years ago with this guy that i was dating at the time. it was our first weekend together here in the city since he lived here, and i was just visiting him. he was the type of guy who wanted to take me somewhere that i would be really impressed with, that it would make him seem like he totally knew the hot places to go to in the city. well, when you look at this place from the outside, you don't quite get that it is a hot place to go...or any place to go to, really. but when you eat here, you know. after not having been back here for several years, i paid the place a visit with a friend the other month. we sat at the bar since there wasn't any seating at a table. i was surprised on a saturday night to get instant seating, when in the past i was used to waiting up to an hour. i think partially that's because the place has lost it's trend appeal, but sucks for the other guys. i'm happy to sit down a bit faster to enjoy my meal. the fish here is always so fresh, and the quality is spot on. the plating is simple and traditional. the menu reads the same way. all in all, the experience feels natural and not forced, which is why it is my favorite sushi place here in the city. i don't come to a sushi restaurant for a show, i come for good sushi. i've had the omakase for two here several times. i was never disappointed. the variety of fish makes it worth the price, and you leave satisfied every time. the presentation is special in how everything is laid out in front of you, again very simple, but smart. there's a classic sophistication here that feels so authentic. this time around, i just had a few rolls and a salad. everything was just as delicious as i had remembered it, but the simplicity of it had such an unforced casual feeling. something i was so pleased to experience, which makes me want to agree with other reviews saying that this is the type of place that should become a regular destination in anyone's dining diary. thank you for not losing your appeal time and time again over the years. read more

Revisited this little Japanese restaurant, after about 15 yrs, with a family member I used to enjoy it with. Happy to find the same good service, beautifully fresh sashimi, lightly cooked salmon and green tea ice cream. Glad to find something I know well which has not changed in this ever-changing city. Even though living downtown is but a memory, I will make the trip from the West Nineties again for Hasaki's enduring quality. read more

Had the sushi combo for 2 and thought the fish were just ok in terms of quality (compared to the other restaurants in the same neighborhood). Will need to come back to try their omakase before i can fully say i've gauged their potential. read more

I had a grilled salmon, and it was simply amazing! The ambiance is beautiful, and you won't find a cleaner place than this in the village! (trust me, there are some very unsanitary places out there) Cheers all! read more

I was disappointed overall. My Omakase was just OK. The sushi was fresh but pieces were VERY small and VERY overpriced for what it is. Compared to Tomoe sushi for example where the Omakase is phenomenal..very large pieces of fish in great quantity, priced well and better quality...On the other hand our salmon teriyaki was exceptional. A mixed bag but overall...overpriced read more

I was reading Murakami on the way home on the subway. Of course I inspired eating some sushi. Hasaki was on my way between Astor and my place. Sushi was ok. Miso soup was the worst I had ever had, maybe not my taste. It is a restaurant that you can feel comfortable with your friends chatting all night. The sake list was pretty good. Nothing impressive but I would again and check the specials. read more

I've been to Hasaki twice. The first time was for Valentine's with my BF and we got the Valentine's chef special...It was INCREDIBLE! We were loving every bite and everything was so pretty. What was wonderful was the uni - fresh uni, that is, straight from the shell! We both never liked uni until that night. Since then, uni just isn't the same, can't get any fresher than that night. Our second time was last week. I was so excited to have it since our first experience was so incredible. Unfortunately, it just wasn't the same experience. We ordered the omakase and it just wasn't impressive. I mean, don't get me wrong, it was good, but I guess I was expecting much more. Maybe we were there at the wrong time. read more

Yummy! First off let me say, that though this is a small restaurant the seating is very comfortable and intimate. We ordered the salmon with basil miso sauce and it was incredible and the portion was perfectly sized, nice and large for a japanese resturant. We also had the udon noodles and some sashimi which was very fresh. The miso soup was made with red miso and tasted pretty good, though it was a tad bit salty. I would def. go back read more

First, these people will never speak good English, and they will think it's your problem for not speaking their language. The chief also seem very arrogant towards certain demographic of people. This guy wears this disturbing fake smile while insulting customers. What I overheard - Customer: "I heard Sushi knifes are expensive, how much does that knife cost?" Main sushi chef "that's non of your business." Conclusion, The guy makes my stomach uncomfortable - so for food review, they get a 0 stars. read more
