    The Food is amazing here! Wonderful service and quick. The Omakase was flown directly from Japan

    Delish. Kani salad was the star of the show. Absolutely incredible. One of the best I've ever had. Roll was fresh & creative.

    Despite countless friends, particularly the foodies, raving about Gohan, my countless trips to the plaza for other reasons, and my love of sushi, I for some reason had never been until yesterday. The long anticipation and acclaim made for extremely high expectations, and I have to say they were met! It was pretty incredible sushi. Everyone there was super friendly and welcoming. The space is small, but tables are arranged nicely to maximize space as best they can. The servers were happy to give suggestions and asked what types of things I usually enjoyed. I had also been told by friends that the special rolls were a must. I over ordered to have leftovers, so I went with one of the special rolls my server recommended which was the sashimi roll, then the heaven roll, a yellowtail-scallion roll, and a sweet potato roll. Execution and technical skill was top tier. I was really impressed. Even the small details, knife cuts, ingredient ratios and proportions. Careful thought was clearly put into each roll. The special rolls were brilliantly conceived. The heaven roll was my favorite, and had avocado, and tempura shrimp and banana. Then the sashimi roll was rice-less, and had spicy crunchy yellowtail-tuna-salmon and mango inside, and then more raw tuna & salmon, avocado and thinly sliced lemon on top. It was served with a chili sauce intended for dipping. I was asked to try the special rolls as intended first. It was perfect as is! They have homemade soy sauce even, but I only used a little bit with the sweet potato and yellowtail rolls. Hardly needed. Excellent ginger and wasabi too, and plating was of course done with care as well. It was a great experience overall. Prices were great, especially for the quality. Very average even though nothing else about the experience was. If totally understand why Gohan is so beloved, and I am happy to report I now love it too. I anxiously look forward to trying more rolls!

    Small, very modern establishment with excellent service! I stopped by for lunch and got the 2 roll lunch special with miso soup and a seaweed salad. Delicious and fresh! Highly recommend!

    I've seen the accolades... Yelp's Top 100 Places to Eat in 2025. I've seen it all over IG. I had to try it of course. It's located in a plaza and it's a small, cozy spot; there were about 7 tables. I don't think they accept reservations. We went on Saturday for dinner, there were a group of about 15 to 20 and then my family. I was glad we were able to get a table for 4! The service was great! Food came out fast too. My kids had the chicken katsu with fries which they enjoyed. My husband had the sashimi platter and Philly roll, which he said was fresh and tasty. I ordered 3 sushi rolls: Dragon Roll- it had crispy tempura shrimp, avocado wrapped in sushi rice and nori seaweed; it was topped with eel sauce and sesame seeds. Shrimp Tempura Roll- which had Tempura Shrimp, Avocado, Cucumber, Tobiko, and Homemade Eel Sauce Spicy Crunchy Tuna Roll- fresh minced tuna, seaweed, rice, and I believe popped rice to make it crunchy Honestly, all delicious. I couldn't find a negative. The sushi were fresh and innovative. The menu had so many delicious options that I wanted to try all of it in one sitting, if I was a rich sumo wrestler lol. Yes, it's worth the hype and I'll be back soon!

    My wife and I have been really enjoying a new found love of sushi so on a recent date night I searched for top sushi restaurants in the state and we made a drive. Glad we made a reservation because there are only maybe ten small tables and all were filled when we arrived on a Thursday evening. Food was all excellent. The best gyoza I've had and the homemade soy sauce was a nice kicker. Rolls we had were all excellent and we absolutely will be back.

    I am obsessed. I see why it's a fan favorite and ranked on Yelp's Top 100 in the US. Gohan is now my #1 favorite for sushi. Like honestly in the entire country. It is on the smaller side because it's so unassuming in the middle of a strip mall. But the chefs are incredible with wonderful servers. The owner is the sweetest woman ever and she loves chatting with everyone coming in. Everything is made in house, even the soy sauce. The art and craft behind what is put on the menu is amazing. You should absolutely check them out!!!!!

    Top to bottom on the left - Spicy crunchy tuna, Philly Roll, Alaska roll  Right top to bottom - Dark Angel Roll, Tiger Roll

    Super fresh, delicious and unique sushi, friendly and helpful staff, and a beautiful and very clean and well decorated spot. We waited far too long to try Gohan and will be back again very soon!!

    Very good sushi, worth the trek. Came here because of the top 100 list entry. Plaza is very unassuming, in the middle of a shopping district. When we came, the restaurant was 15 minutes from closing. They take an hour for lunch every day, and shut down fully. They let us order to go though, so we put in our order rapidly and waited in the car. Food came out quickly, took some pics and dug in. The sushi was top notch, even if they were all to-go. The tuna was treated well, fresh and seasoned lightly. The wasabi was fresh and the ginger was punchy. The flaming torch roll was beefy and toasty, the dark angel roll was tangy, creamy and spicy. The only issue was the spicy tuna was a little mushy with little texture difference. We would've loved actually dining in and getting the full experience, but if this is the quality one gets when they are closing up just shows their commitment to their craft. It's really good sushi.

    The sushi here lives up to its hype! The sushi rolls were fresh and creative. The service is good, seems like they have a lot of regulars and since it's such a small place, you'd get recognize quickly if you came a few times. There's only seating for about a max of 20 people or 5 separate tables, really small. They only serve nonalcoholic drinks and I think they are BYOB.

    Anny S.

    The sushi is good, but for the hype of top 100, no I don't think so. I had sushi at Genki and fengchop I thought it taste better. It's not horrible, but it's def not the best sushi I've eaten. The place is small and it's nice to support mom and pop shop. I also didn't know it's BYoB if I known that maybe it would have made my experience better. It was my birthday and I didn't know there's no alcohol there.

    Joann K.

    First off, to anyone that says "all sushi spots are the same" this place will prove you wrong. The standards for the quality of fish here are high and you can taste the difference. I mean just look how vibrant that salmon is. They're known for their sushi rolls and Paradise cake, Crazy Tuna roll and Tiger roll are only some of the rolls I've had but they were all amazing. The seamless blend of flavors, from the addition of citrus to their rolls to the unique sauces, you can tell a lot of care has been put into the design of each roll. I would come back just for the paradise cake though, insane blend of crunchy and soft textures. I'll admit I was a little doubtful because the same sounded gimmicky but boy was I wrong. Truly savored every bite and didn't want it to end . Service is amazing as always, super friendly and inviting. Having such a small seating area means the restaurant has kind of a homey feel, yet the food and presentation really takes you to flavor-town. Love the dichotomy of the beautifully arranged sushi and the Dragon Ball Z figurines around the restaurant. Honestly, Gohan placing in the Yelp top 20 for restaurants in the U.S. speaks for itself. If you're around the area, love sushi, and haven't gone here to eat yet, what are you doing?

    This was our first time visiting Gohan, and from the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed by the warm and inviting atmosphere. Olivia truly made our experience exceptional--she was attentive, friendly, and incredibly helpful throughout our visit. The outstanding service was matched by the food, which was absolutely delicious. Everything we ordered exceeded our expectations. We will definitely be back and look forward to our next visit!

After much debating and research, we decided it was finally time to try Hachiroku in New Haven. We already love going to The Loop, let's sit down and eat. Heard lots of positive buzz from fellow Yelpers and foodies, including a previous 2024 New Haven Best Restaurant of the Year at the CRAZIES. All of the accolades and positive reviews are well earned. Cozy and delicious. That's what I'd describe about Hachiroku. The ambiance is cozy regardless if you're sitting at the bar or in the upstairs seating. The food we ordered also had the same vibe. The menu rotates with the seasons and the freshest ingredients which we greatly appreciated and it shows in the tastes. Our seasonal selections that we ordered included Hokkaido scallop and octopus carpaccio with ikura and seaweed and monkfish karaage. The carpaccio had the perfect components to complement each other. The monkfish karaage fully came together between the lemon and the side of pickled radish as well. We also ordered house made fresh tofu and added uni. The staff mentioned "oh it's perfect, it's uni season" which made my day. It was so delicious and my husband who normally doesn't like uni even noticed how fresh it was. We really went wild ordering everything, including the mini Harasu don (teishoku which comes with rice, pickles, and we picked the salad), Black Cod grilled with Yuzu sauce, Yaki Kinoko Mushrooms, and the Kakuni Short Rib (which pairs very well with a side of rice). The most cozy and perfect dish for winter was the seasonal vegetable agedashi. Warm and had a nice variety of vegetables with a vegetable dashi broth that healed the soul. We enjoyed every dish and we noticed already when looking at the menu again there's already so many new items to try. Excellent service and suggestions from the staff (because if we didn't have them, we could've ordered the whole menu in one night). Can't wait to come back and rave about Hachiroku (and its sister stores/restaurants) to everyone!

The menu is small, but has a variety from entrees, sushi, noodles, and shareable appetizers. There were specials as well that we took advantage of and ended up with a lot of food. My husband and I shared the Yukitori Platter, something that I haven't seen before on a menu. It's a Japanese street food that has skewered meat. Our platter had chicken, shrimp, beef, pork, and zucchini and each were very good. My husband got the Gyu Don (which is a beef bowl) and for $5 more, he got the set that included three side dishes and a miso soup. I ordered the Shrimp Tempura Udon and made it a Combo for $5 more which included a classic Brown Sugar Bubble Tea and a Pork Bun. I loved my Udon, was flavorful and not too salty. The bubble tea was perfect, even the tapioca pearls weren't too hard or gummy. The service was good, but it was a slow start since there was only one staff member hosting and serving the dining room. It was a little busy with a couple of other tables. The staff were very kind and respectful. The food came out fast after we ordered. Akatsuki is really a hidden gem and it's a must try. My husband and I look forward to returning soon.

We came on a Friday evening and it was full but they were able to find us a table quickly. Inside, the place has a very casual feel and I honestly wasn't sure what we were going to get when we ordered. Just to say, looks were deceiving, but in a good way! The food was at a different (better) level than the ambience in the room. Basically, don't worry about how the place looks - you will love the food. Our waitress was sooo nice and friendly. We got our drinks quickly and ordered right away. Though we came for sushi, we were all mesmerized by the entree options and opted to try the bento boxes. I'm used to small bento boxes with tightly portioned foods and the "basics." What we got surprised us all. These bento boxes were actually huge plates of food. A full order of vegetable tempura, a whole California roll, entree, soup and gyoza. We barely made it through a quarter of it! And it was delicious! I got the chicken teriyaki and the chicken was so tender. The tempura was fried perfectly and the gyoza had a great flavor. All in all, I recommend you try this place out! Is it a fancy date night place? No. Is it a super casual date night place? Yes! Try the bento - you won't be disappointed! 4/5 stars only because they should spruce up the inside to match their amazing food!

OK, I hope he wiped his hands and none of that crap went into the sushi roll he was making. Anyways, out came the soda and the miso soup. The miso soup was served in a plastic bowl about 3/4 of the way up. Also included was a plastic soup spoon. Looking around, this place was decent inside. Why would they be serving in plastic bowls with plastic utensils? This made no sense but OK.

I ate it, but it was barely edible and seeing it was 14.95 , I wasn't about to send it back.

Hawaiian Kitchen, based in Bethpage, absolutely knocked it out of the park! From the start, they were incredibly easy to work with and went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. I had originally requested 2-liter bottles of soda, but since they didn't have them in stock, they proactively delivered individual cans instead to ensure our team had plenty of drinks. Now, for the food--it was phenomenal. Our office hasn't stopped raving about it! The Coconut Shrimp and Grilled Shrimp were huge hits, and the Angus Steak was incredibly tender. Even the Chicken Fried Rice was a standout, and all of their signature sauces were delicious. They also did a large house salad for us with the most incredible Ginger dressing. I had numerous people ask me where I found them, and I couldn't wait to order for their next small house parties or to pick up dinner on the way home. It was all so fresh and not greasy. We also ordered spring rolls that were so light and crispy, pineapple fried rice that was really delicious, and marinated chicken and steamed broccoli. If you're looking for reliable catering that people will actually get excited about, I can't recommend Hawaiian Kitchen enough. THANK YOU for making me look like a superstar! We will definitely be ordering again! PS - they are a small, family-owned business, and I love supporting businesses like that that really care. Give them a try!
