    French Crunchy Special Roll and Chirashi Sushi
    Michael P.

    Came here with a large group and you know what? The sushi was great. Best in the state? Well, not exactly. But the fish was fresh, the service was exceptionally great considering we had 10 people and we had a great time! The chirahashi was a nice dish for a "lighter" option, and when I say lighter, I really just mean I didn't want to fill up on all specialty rolls. Very healthy portion of fish over a bed of rice. I thought the pineapple and bamboo shoots had a bit of an odd flavor, but it was easily ignored. The French crunch roll was very good. A little softer texturally than I was expecting but I enjoyed it a lot. I tried a few other pieces of sushi from friends and honestly, all their specialty rolls were good. Give it a shot for sushi, especially if you need a large crowd accommodated.

    Love Boat

    Hei place is a go to for me if I want a larger amount of sushi at a good price. I highly recommend the Love boat and have yet to find a better Lychee martini in RI. Warning that they are stronger than they taste!

    Udon Noodle Soup with 3 Tempura Shrimp
    Mike F.

    This place never disappoints. The crab Rangoons are deliciously filled with a creamy cream cheese and crab filling. The edamame has a hint of salt and steamed to perfection. Then the Udon noodle soup is great when flavored with a little Hoison sauce. Not to mention it is served with 3 fried shrimp. The service is pretty good as long as you come when it is not packed. Overall if you haven't been here you def need to try. I would give it a 4.5 but 4 is the closest.

    Fired Roll (decent)

    Here's an interesting non-fiction anecdote. Once upon a time, two brothers invested over four million dollars into an antiquated pizza establishment in the heart of North Providence, on the bustling Mineral Spring Avenue. This fancy, shiny koi welcoming palace is known as Jacky's Galaxie. Unfortunately, these brothers clashed like two cymbals. One Chef brother split and decided to start his own enterprise. This new venture would be known as Hei Place. It shares ambiance, but is lacking something. The service is average. The food is hit or miss. The location is strategic. Overall, 3.75 with a round up for posterity. Bon appetite!

    Cantonese Noodles with Bean Curd
    Candice S.

    This was my first time dining inside and not getting take out. My takeout experiences are always easy and my order is correct. I usually call ahead or order online. This time we came in for dinner. Wow; it was crowded as there aren't a ton of tables but after a short wait we were seated. The space was clean and service was great. The food took a little while but no complaints because it was very crowded. Our sushi was perfect! It was tasty, rolled properly and no mess/falling apart. Our meals were perfect. The only thing I found a bit weird is that the dinner doesn't come with rice, you have to order some. I'm not sure who just wants to eat a place of sesame chicken and nothing else but other than that no complaints. My drink was also good! We will definitely be back.

    Hot & Sour soup - highly recommended
    Billy C.

    The food is delicious whether your ordering Chinese, Sushi, or appetizers. If you like Hot & Sour soup, Hei Place makes the best! I also recommend the Shrimp Tempura, and the avocado salad

    Wow! So we almost left because parking in this area is atrocious! I'm so glad we didn't leave…read morebecause it is by far the best sushi I've had in all over Rhode Island!! From the miso soup, Korean dumplings to the Philadelphia sushi roll I had! Very friendly service along with the delicious food! Such beautiful decorations inside that make you smile when you walk in! My husband had the caterpillar remix and dragon with a side of sweet eel sauce and he was in heaven! My son had a Philadelphia roll and the à la carte nagari with salmon and he was so happy and he said it's the best sushi he's ever had! My husband lived in Japan for 6 months and he was very impressed by the quality and taste of the food we had today! We got to meet the chef and he was amazing and humble and sweet! You need to stop here and try it for yourself!

    We found this sushi spot on our way back from my son's soccer game after seeing the high ratings…read moreand multiple posts advertising it as a top Yelp location. With a 4.6 rating, we were genuinely excited to try it. Walking in, first impressions were great. The inside of the restaurant was super cute, the artwork was beautifully done, and the initial greeting was welcoming. Unfortunately, things started going downhill pretty quickly after that. We had a few questions about the menu, but the hostess seemed confused and didn't really understand what we were asking, so we ultimately just gave up and ordered what sounded good. Food-wise, it was very mixed. The sushi roll was phenomenal...genuinely the best part of the experience, and my son absolutely loved his. The shrimp udon was okay, but the portion was noticeably smaller than what most sushi places serve. The salmon poke bowl was very basic and honestly underwhelming. I also asked for spicy mayo, which was never brought out. The biggest disappointment was the service. Paying $4 for a canned soda with no refills already felt excessive, but when my son accidentally spilled it, we cleaned it up immediately ourselves. No one offered extra napkins, replaced the plate, or even asked if we wanted another drink. It just felt inattentive from start to finish. To make matters worse, one staff member was sitting at the bar listening to something loudly on a laptop, which completely took away from the atmosphere and felt unprofessional. As someone who used to waitress, I understand the service industry and I'm usually a generous tipper. But I also believe tips reflect service, and unfortunately this experience missed the mark. After picking up our receipt, the hostess was visibly unhappy with the tip amount and had no issue making that clear which only reinforced the poor experience. I very rarely leave one-star reviews, but for a place with a 4.6 star reputation and "top-rated" marketing, this was incredibly disappointing. Cute atmosphere and one great sushi roll aside, the service and overall experience were just not what we expected.

And everything was to my liking. Thick udon noodles with a slight chew and tender chicken. Healthy amount of vegetables mixed in, tied together with a light and simple broth. Overall, nothing ground breaking here. Solid value at $14 so if you have some friends who want sushi but you don't or you're tight on cash, good option. Good feeling overall in this place, little of a lounge vibe, service was friendly, no complaints out of me. It'll stay in the back pocket for a backup.

We had actually planned on going to a different restaurant, but it was closed without anything saying their hours had changed or they were on vacation. Nami was not too far from the other place and so we went there. I love the atmosphere and hip/classy feel to the dining room. The server was very friendly, but so soft spoken it was hard to hear him. I just really wanted some miso soup and some sushi, but many things looked great on their menu. One little bizarre thing was that it listed a Clam miso soup on the menu, but when I asked about he said they did have a vegetarian miso soup but it wasn't on the menu. He did tell me they were redoing the menu. The miso soup was really good. We ordered a variety of sushi, which was also very tasty. I found it a bit odd the way they did their rainbow roll, which rolled all the fish inside the roll instead of fish layered on top. Also, the crunchy veggies inside the rainbow roll didn't really go with the rest of the fish very well. The Christmas Tree roll was my favorite and was delicious! I have to mention an odd circumstance about parking in their lot. When I came out of the restaurant there was a car blocking us. Apparently, since it's a small lot they tell people you can block cars but you have to be willing to move it once a table is done and wants to go. That's fine, but it was so damn cold outside that I really didn't want to have to go back in an bother people about this. I did anyway, but I just thought the whole thing was weird.

When I saw the impressive average star rating of Hao on Yelp, I took it as a sign to give up on the traffic & treat myself to some sushi instead. I arrived just after they opened (around 4:50pm) & I had the restaurant to myself. It was clean, bright, & joyfully decorated. I was immediately struck with how cheerful & kind the server was. I felt like I had sat down in her home - that's how hospitable & familiar she felt. I asked for a bowl of miso soup to start, & it appeared in front of me in less than 3 minutes. It was warm, balanced, & the perfect appetizer. I moved on to some toro nigiri & their "crispy rice" appetizer (which was topped with spicy tuna, tobiko, honey miso, eel sauce, & fried seaweed.) The toro was spectacular. It was tender, fresh, & topped with a balanced little chutney situation that tasted a bit like wasabi. I don't like wasabi. I always opt out, if I can. But this little chutney was delicious! The crispy rice appetizer was spectacular & comforting as well. I could've eaten 2-3 more servings. I concluded my meal with an order of avocado & cucumber maki. It was rolled tightly & well balanced. A perfect, fresh roll. I'm so glad I stopped here! Dining in was a great choice. I felt welcomed & comfortable. Everything came out quickly, the sushi was incredible, & the service makes me want to sit in traffic again just to return. Enthusiastic 5/5 stars.

    I've been coming to Haruki East for at least 15 years, which is probably the strongest endorsement…read moreI can give any restaurant. In a state with no shortage of sushi options, this has remained my go-to spot year after year. At this point, I think I've tried either everything on the menu or come pretty close to it. That's what happens when you keep returning to the same place for over a decade. The reason I keep coming back is simple: consistency. The fish is always fresh, the sushi is well prepared, and the food is reliably good. If I order something cooked, it arrives hot and exactly as expected. There are restaurants where you're rolling the dice every visit. Haruki East has never felt like one of them. The restaurant itself is clean, comfortable, and easy to get to. The location is convenient, and the prices are very reasonable considering the quality of the food. That's become increasingly rare these days. The only reason I'm stopping at four stars instead of five is the service. While I've never had a genuinely bad experience here, the last few visits have been noticeably slower than I remember. Service has also felt a bit inattentive at times, and these weren't during packed dinner rushes or busy weekend nights. Nothing terrible, just enough that I found myself waiting longer than expected for drinks, check-ins, or the bill. That said, the food continues to be excellent, and that's ultimately why I keep coming back. After 15 years, Haruki East has earned a level of trust that few restaurants achieve. When I'm craving sushi, this is still the place I think of first. The occasional service hiccup hasn't been enough to change that. If you're looking for fresh fish, a broad menu, reasonable prices, and a restaurant with a long track record of getting the important things right, Haruki East remains one of the best choices in Rhode Island.
