We came here with our friends a couple of months ago. We were seated quickly. My husband ordered a steak teriyaki and he said he liked it a lot. Rich teriyaki sauce had perfectly balanced sweet and savory notes. We also got Philly Roll, Dynamite Roll, and Firecracker Roll. All the rolls were made with fresh ingredients and tasted good, though not the best I've ever had. The service was nice. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. The ambience was ok. It was a bit dim inside. I would definitely give Sushi Hana another try if I'm in the area again. read more

I've personally eatin sushi from this establishment for 30 plus years and ive never seen whatever the fuck this is in my ginger. I loved this place once and wish it was still as good as it used to be. Didn't recognize the chef today. Sure its edible but its quite off putting read more

Sushi Hana - What the F@ck is in my Ginger! - Japanese Near Me - Sebastopol, California

I hadn't eaten here in around 10 years, and I think I was a bit harsh last time. Allow me to update things... I recently brought a sushi-loving friend there for lunch and we had a great meal. The atmosphere is peaceful, cozy, and pleasantly dim. I don't remember what my friend had but he seemed to enjoy it. I got mixed veggie and shrimp tempura and a harvest moon roll--both delightful. The harvest moon was nice and plump with crispy tempura sweet potato inside. Came with plenty of wasabi and ginger. The veggie and shrimp tempura was a "small" but a rather generous helping nonetheless. Came was a savory/sweet dipping sauce. Service was spotless... no complaints this time around. I really need to eat here more often. read more

My favorite. If you don't want seafood the chicken roll is really good and they have veggie tempura with chicken also. I do not know any other places that do that. Nice staff too read more

I have been coming to this establishment since 2005. Consistent quality and wonderful staff! I really miss their pickled garlic they used to have. The ambiance hasn't changed much in 20 years. They have W&Sat "$1 sushi" and great lunch specials. As you can see from the photos I'm a creature of habit with that Gilroy Maki, but anytime I try something new it doesn't disappoint! read more

Tempura was a huge portion and pretty good. There were about half a dozen prawns and lots of vegetables and the batter was light, so no complaints about it. We also ordered a Rock and Roll ($6.50 on the special menu), a Rainbow Roll, a Sweet Potato Roll, a tekka maki, and an eggplant nigiri. While the rolls were tasty enough, the rice was a bit mushy. The best of all of them was the Rock and Roll. The included ginger was delicious, but I wish they were more generous with it; only two of us ate it and there wasn't really enough (there were 3 of us). Service was very slow and the tempura that was ordered as an appetizer didn't come until very late. Other people who came after we were seated got their food way before we got ours, including an order of tempura! read more

Our family has been coming there for decades and have witnessed the decline in food quality over the last few years. This week-Wet, oversweet seaweed salad, soft soggy defrosted fish, dry old rice in the nigiri, generally unfresh and just plain bad food. Oh yeah, and the tempura calamari still had raw batter inside which we washed down with room temperature tapwater and had to request cold water. After multiple visits like this, with this one being the worst, we have decided that unfortunately we won't be back. Guess we'll have to head up the hill to the other sushi restaurant in town. read more

I enjoy the neighborhood cozy feel. Sashimi is fresh, sushi is good - what more to ask

Sushi Hana - Santa Cruz - Japanese Near Me - Sebastopol, California

Heroically mediocre sushi. Very bumpy service. You can tell when a restaurant has no training for servers. The exchanges we had with our servers were bordering on the bizarre. Bright spot was the coconut shrimp roll. Train your staff- Google "sequence of service" namaste read more

Placed an order for pick up and the food was ready fairly fast. We've had two times in a row now that they make our food wrong so made sure to check the main course and while that was right we were annoyed to say to least to see that they packed us a soup with a faulty lid so a soup completely emptied into the to go back making the other soup containers get mushy as well. Can't seem to come here without something going wrong with us unfortunate because we do like the food here. read more

Sushi Hana - Japanese Near Me - Sebastopol, California

Sushi Hana has been here in Sebastopol for a long time and for good reason. Their sushi is fresh and delicious. My personal favorite is the "Bodega Bay Maki." The cucumber salad is very good, fresh w/ a delicious dressing. I highly recommend their food! The place is friendly and clean and servers are great! read more

I wanted the reviews to be wrong, I really did, but they aren't. I unfortunately won't be back. It was just my oldest son and I for a date night. I wanted him to pick a place that he could see them make the sushi. Unfortunately based on the set-up he couldn't see anything. They have a Friday/Saturday special on Nigiri, but it wasn't any discount, it was just a way to buy 1 piece instead of 2. It was a bit shocking to see a $72 bill for 1 roll (not even a special one), 8-10 pieces of nigiri,2 miso soups, NA beer, and a Japanese soda. I kept looking at the bill but it wasn't an error. All could be forgiven with quality fish... but that was a swing and a miss. I knew there would be issues when I saw all the pre-cut fish with not great coloring. I'm also saw one of the chefs cutting open packages of fish, that made it very clear it was neither quality or fresh. The fish wasn't great, some were big clunky cuts on a too small bed of rice, and everything fell apart, which means it was t great rice either. I ordered Hamachi ad I always do, but for the second time in a row got albacore. It was not fresh at all and the texture was rough, neither my son or I finished it. I know I should have said something, but I looked at the fish infront of me knowing it was hamachi and the chef confirmed... but that definitely isn't what I got. Service was fine, not bad not great. However, every other thing we ordered they were out of. It is very frustrating to have to keep ordering and ordering till you find something they have. My 9 year old is practically a cartoon character he loves everything and everyone and even he gave it a 7/10 which for him is very low! It's a great location and has potential but they need to not cut the corners or add "deals" that aren't deals. read more

Not a fan of the quality of the sushi, presentation or taste of the food overall. I've given this place a plenty of tries, but been disappointed every time. read more

This place has gone WAY downhill. I use to come here as far back as 2015 and it was a great local spot. Since then or at least in the last 5 years it is not good. The rolls are smaller, less fish, horrible presentation, and poorly rolled. Rolls fall to pieces as you pick them up. Recently they messed up a pick up order on a Sunday afternoon when the restaurant was dead. I called, not to complain but just to let them know of the mistake because it resulted in my bill being higher even though I pre paid online. Confusing. The woman was slightly apologetic which is fine but she also indicated that she knew they messed up my order but gave it to me anyway.... Sushi ain't cheap it's pretty important to give customers what they order (and pre pay for). No biggie. Just not worth a re-visit. read more

First time we ever ate there was today. I have no idea how the sushi tasted, because all we could taste was the sugar in the rice. It was really disgusting. Even my children said that sweetness of the rice overpowered everything else. We will never go back, one time was too many. Gross read more

Love the sushi and had amazing service!! One of my family's favorite spots and will for sure be here again!

Thumbs way up. Nice, small and well laid out sushi spot. Service was excellent, and my teriyaki beef was well above par. The shrimp and vegetable tempura was also quite good, any my wife was very happy with her sushi. The rice is solid, miso also, and their little cucumber salad is surprisingly good. It's a small place, so they probably get busy at peak times; we came in the early afternoon and had a fabulous late lunch. Will definitely come back. read more

Be mindful they don't give basic utensils when you place order to go. They blame it on delivery service but they are the ones executing the order-- how much does it save them? Less than $1 per order? I hate it when restaurants try to maximize the profit over silly stuff like that read more

Nice atmosphere, friendly service, reasonable prices, BUT... if you want authentic sushi, this may not be the place. The sushi rice was heavily sweetened and dominated the flavor. We had several different sushi's. The fish was fresh and the waiter was kind enough to steer us away from one choice saying it was not fresh. The fried potstickers were quite tasty, Perhaps ordering sashimi and steamed rice on the side would be a safe choice, but again, quite a bit too much sugar in the sushi rice made the already sweet unagi and tomago way too sweet. read more

Caterpillar roll ruined by little shrimp fried to a crisp instead of the large prawn in the middle. Half was perfect then in the middle disappointment. So sad. The other rolls were ok. Nothing special. read more

Sushi was mediocre at best. Service was good but the food ugh No I don't have any more to say read more

Food was served on a combo platter with the sauce on both. The waiter was condescending that it was the way it is. Very pour and very disappointed read more

Service bad, nothing cooked ! calamari tempura sent back not cooked plus never seen calamari strips 4 " long Tempura dinner nothing cooked or adhered to vegetables. Bite into it & entire food comes out Used to love going here! Sad very sad Worse said horrible and no comment when paying bill after leaving nearly entire meal in table to 3 young women. Not apologize what do we need to do to improve ? Nothing read more

The worst sushi. The clues were there: only 1 other customer in the whole place. An asian couple came in and left within minutes without ordering. Sushi rice was saturated with sugar. Plus it was stale and hard. Probably why the sugar to cover the shit rice. Knife skills and presentation was not even 1 year sushi apprentice level. Worse. The "chef" was some teen. There's no way he's been properly trained. If he was, why is the rice overly sweet? Why is there cantaloupe and strawberries in the cucumber salad with no vinegar in the dressings? Why does the miso soup taste like dish water? Why did the rolls disintegrate the moment they touched soy sauce? JenT, please consider firing the kid chef. If it wasn't him fucking up the sushi, then fire the real chef. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE! read more

Friend and I were sat at a table. The server attended to tables that had been sat AFTER us, never asked us for water, no communication, so we had to leave :( read more

I have been going to Sushi Hana for decades when Jon and Mariam owned it. I loved this restaurant when I lived there for 30 years. I took my daughter there today and was so disappointed. The edamame was over steamed to the point of mush and had brown spots. After 4 four pods we returned it. The sesame chicken was so dried that we had to put more sauce on it to make it palatable. The Hamachi Sashimi came in two different colors, red and cream. After eating sushi for more than 40 years, I realize they did not cut away the red part of the fish. Additionally, it was paper thin. We order 4 rolls in which the rice was way too sweet and the roll fell apart when picked up by fingers or chopsticks. Two of these were tasteless. In addition, i was informed that I would be charged an additional 4% for using a credit card! However, the service was exceptional as was the vegetable tempura. I most certainly hope it was an off day for Sushi Hana. read more

Sorry to say the sushi here is just not that good. The chef's knife skills were non- existent as the nigiri / sashimi looked like random pieces of fish. No consistency. And the rolls we tried were all over sauced and heavy. Service was great though. read more

Yum forever! The waitstaff are attentive and patient, food is fresh and delish, and the "free refills lemonade " is mouthwatering! Eat local, recommend them to visitors and keep their doors open! We went just before close of lunch and didn't feel rushed to leave. read more

Sushi Hana - Pops with his Coconut Shrimp Roll! - Japanese Near Me - Sebastopol, California

Ambience is still nice. However tonight's meal was less than acceptable. Miso soup was about 100 degrees, too cool, waaay too cool even for miso. Sushi and sashimi were...acceptable though the salmon piece was cut too large and the seaweed wrap on the unagi was...off a bit. All of which are not big deals, other than temperature. Which is where we get into the meat of what went wrong. I ordered the sushi/teriyaki dinner with chicken teriyaki. Basically just a thin(ish) breast filet with teriyaki sauce. Basic. And first bite...hmmm, seems cool. Nibble another and think, is this cooked through? Cut the filet, seems cooked....nibble, nibble...chonk chomp. Ugh, woody breast...tough, even flattened it was tough. Ugh, ugh. So finish what I can, mention the soup temperature and the woody breast meat quality issue to the server who seemed, unsure. Said she would bring it up to the owner. Brought me the ticket, I paid and tipped after waiting for a bit to see if anyone else would check in. They didn't. So, I give it 2 of 5 cool interior, but too cool of soup, meat and staff. There are other options. read more

90$ for rolls that completely fall apart. Get yourself a real sushi chef. Rice not stick enough maybe? Sorely disappointed. Only got takeout here because Kamura is closed Sundays. Miso tasted weird too... ick. Agh! Bye 100$ sad.... read more

Sushi Hana - Sushi Platter - Japanese Near Me - Sebastopol, California

Let me start off by saying Sushi Hana is fantastic. Regardless of all else, their food is always great. I have noticed some inconsistency- sometimes the agadashi tofu is in triangles, sometimes in rectangles, sauce container sizes have varied - not a big deal but just shows that there is inconsistency in the kitchen. We've gotten undercooked veggie tempura once, and we were given the wrong sauce for Katsu at one point. All that said, we obviously keep coming back - these were all separate occasions. Service is good, never been an issue, they're just pretty busy (for good reason). So absolutely give them a chance, i have to nitpick to find something wrong, just little things here and there, but always fast service and kind faces. read more

Days old fish, revolting sticky rice, no wasabi or ginger till requested and sullenly delivered. Frank Sinatra playing through a broken audio set-up was as disgusting as the fish. The previous night we had been to SUSHI IN THE RAW in Nevada city which is a 6 star restaurant, and cost less than Hannah. read more

The sushi rice was tragically over sweetened. The nigiri was almost like a dessert. The agadashi tofu was literally large hunks of tempura tofu. My understanding is that back in the day this was a great place to go for sushi. But it apparently has not aged well. read more

So sad that this place went downhill, came years ago and I remember it being so busy on a Saturday and the sushi was really good. Just tried it again and I thought it was odd the restaurant was empty on a Saturday night. The sushi rolls were so small and only one of the rolls was memorable. My son's chicken was good but it had like 5 tiny pieces chunks of chicken with a bunch of cabbage I think? One of my rolls was supposed to be a spicy roll with jalapeño and the half slices of pickled jalapeño really thew my off. Rolls were just not really appetizing to look at, not big on flavor and oddly a little dry? We ate the rolls but it just was not anywhere close to the best or freshest sushi we have had. At the end I was chewing on my hamachi roll and the fish just tasted super weird so I had to spit out. My server was really lovely so I made sure to tip her well but I won't be back. read more

HARVEST MOON ROLL. Trust me. When I first came to eat here, I was a vegetarian. Often vegetarian sushi is rather bland, and I'm used to that. But four years later (now not a vegetarian) this roll is still my go to. I think it's fried/tempura pumpkin, but the sauce they put on it is what really kicks it up a notch. Not only is it my favorite sushi of all time, but it might also be my favorite food of all time. They may not have the trendy atmosphere but if you're looking for good sushi, they definitely have it. read more
