On a hot day, you can't beat Hamachi Sushi in Cat City. Dulce goes out of her way to help explain all the yummy and unique menu items. I love the Mix Tostadas topped with lots of crab and spicy tuna and avocado. Very tasty sauces with a Latin flair. Where else can you enjoy your sushi with lively Latin music? read more

Not a traditional sushi bar. While they are somewhat of a sushi fusion bar, the food was uniquely delightful. I love the balance of Serrano chilis with sushi. It was a good treat to have Modelo Negro with sushi. Staff was friendly, plenty of parking, clean facilities read more

My husband and I were extremely disappointed with our recent visit. What makes this experience especially frustrating is that we've eaten here before and it was genuinely fabulous, so something has clearly changed, and unfortunately not for the better. The sushi this time around was borderline inedible. The fish tasted old and poorly handled, with many of the rolls seeming like a strange mash of imitation crab mixed with tired tuna and salmon. Everything was coated in an odd, heavy seasoning that tasted more like a carne asada-style sauce than anything you'd expect with sushi. The rice was just as problematic. The texture was completely wrong, unevenly cooked and inconsistently seasoned. Some bites were mushy while others were dry, throwing off the structure and balance of the rolls entirely. What's also puzzling is that the restaurant was fairly busy, which was surprising given the quality of the food we were served. When I reached the point where I couldn't eat any more of the rolls we had ordered, I asked for a simple spicy tuna roll, hoping it might be safer. Even that was concerning. I'm honestly not convinced it was tuna. The texture and consistency were off, and the flavor was strange, as if extra seasoning was added to mask fish that wasn't fresh. To top it off, we were served crackers that were clearly stale and overly salty. Overall, this felt like a place that has slipped significantly in quality. It was disappointing, confusing, and not an experience we would repeat unless serious changes are made. Update. I wrote this last night and I have spent most of my morning in the restroom read more

*TRIGGER WARNING* *GRAPHIC PHOTOS OF * Never coming here again! Hamachi has been my and my husband's go to sushi place since they opened as we followed the chef from Joe's in PD. While the service has always been a little lackluster, we've had every roll on the menu, almost every appetizer, and enjoyed the chavelas that are always ice cold! But yesterday the end of my meal was topped off with a very disgusting surprise. I went to the restroom while my husband took care of the check and only after using the toilet while washing my hands did I notice that there was feces smeared and dripped all down the side of the toilet. I tried to get the attention of our server to discretely say something but she didn't see me I guess; so unfortunately I had to go up to the sushi bar and say out loud what I saw and show the photo. The server kinda laughed it off and yelled into the kitchen. Nobody came, then a man who was sitting at the sushi bar eating and drinking (who knows if he even works there) stood up and said he'd take care of it with no apologies or anything. I felt completely disgusted and my meal was ruined. We just spent nearly $100 on food just so I can see the unsanitary bathroom and just have my concerns laughed off. I always tip at least 20% in cash, but unfortunately I did leave no tip, and that's my very first time in my life doing that. I can't complain about the food tasting good, but it makes you think... if the bathroom is like that are they letting the kitchen go that way too? Believe me I don't write bad reviews and want to be labeled a "Karen", but I was craving sushi so bad, but really felt like vomiting after seeing what I saw. Whoever used and left the toilet in that condition should've attempted to clean it obviously 100%, but it was clearly old and dried on so it had been there for a while and the staff should be checking the restroom at least 1X per hour. read more

Wow. We went to Hamachi last night on the recommendation of a dear friend in Palm Springs. She said to order the Despelucado...we did...and it was THE SINGLE BEST roll I have ever had in my life! The Joaquin was a close second! Flavors were amazing and the seafood was so fresh! This place changed my expectations of all other rolls I may order in the future ! The wait staff was charming...the sushi chefs are ARTISTS and I even got to meet the owner who was working hard right along his staff making everyone happy (and full). We cannot wait to go back ... read more

The food is always 10/10 here. Good and fast service. I highly recommend next time you're in the area and have a sushi craving. This is the place to go. read more

A very cute Mexican take on sushi. If you are a sushi purist, you may not like this place. Many inventive rolls are reminiscent of ceviche.But right on the wall when you walk in, there is a recipe for spicy tuna. Cool; so this place is Japanese. On the left there is a television showing telenovelas. Cool; this place is Mexican. Whatever it is; I like it! Quirky cool. Staff is very friendly and helpful. read more

Tried, true, and trusted local sushi spot for creative, sometimes Latin cuisine inspired rolls. Everyone I've ever taken here has loved it. Friendly staff, good portions, wide menu to choose from. Surprisingly fresh for it being unassuming from the outside. Definitely a must visit if you're in town! Try the dragon supreme, sushine, chino, or hamachi tower! read more

Hamachi Sushi - Yellow poppers - Sushi Bars Near Me - Cathedral City, California

Ordered for takeout. $68 on straight up garbage. Super chewy beef teriyaki. Dry yakisoba. Crunchy roll looks like something from a fair (deep fried?). Decent portions I guess. It's not hard to make Japanese food. Not sure how they'd mess it up this bad. It's almost inedible. The yakisoba noodles taste like the pan and oil it was cooked in, rather than any seasoning. Everything is so hard to chew. The veggie tempura is okay. Save your money and go anywhere else. What a bummer. read more

My daughter and I love this place. Great service, decent prices, and food is so yummy...

Couldn't decide between sushi or salmon teriyaki but the box comes with 4 rolls and tempura shrimp with veggies too Tempura Salmon Teriyaki Bento Box!!! So good. You'll thank me later read more

Food was AMAZING. I was honestly surprised by the amount of calamari we got in our serving, usually it's normal to only get about 4-6 pieces of tempura at any other place. The rolls were pretty big and saucy. 1st pic is the California tempura and the 2nd pic is the China roll. Can never go wrong with a classic california roll but the china roll was so delicious. Has a fruity tang flavor to it. Definitely recommend! read more

Sat at the bar and had amazing service from chef Fernando! The waitress was attentive and polite. The menu at Hamachi Sushi is genuinely unique. While they offer the classic rolls, they also have some innovative, unexpected combinations that are a must-try! I was especially blown away by their Red Dragon, which combined flavors in a way I'd never experienced before. The presentation was beautiful, with attention to detail that made each dish feel like a piece of art. Another highlight was their seasonal specials, featuring fresh, locally-sourced ingredients. The chef, Fernando, clearly puts a lot of thought and creativity into every item, which made the entire meal feel special and memorable. Overall, if you're looking for a sushi spot that offers both exceptional service and a one-of-a-kind menu, this is the place to go. I can't wait to come back and try more dishes! read more

Amazing food and drinks! I've been coming here for years and the quality and service is always the best. The best local spot for sushi!

This use to be our spot to have sushi, this last experience changed everything. They were more entertained with guest who were drinking then making sure tables were being served. They got one of our orders wrong they missed the cream cheese, instead of redoing it they destroyed the roll and added the cream cheese. Keep in mind we only had taken one piece of the roll and thats how we noiced there wasnt any cream cheese. Rolls took forever to come out and it wasn't even as busy as it's been other times. Once the roll came back it fell apart, they said they were giving us the same roll. Completely disappointed with this experience. No refills offered. The chefs were drinking as i saw them saying cheers with Coronas in their hands and drinking. read more

Best of the best. Underrated place to dine or take out. Definitely recommend. Ordered salmon terriyaki and a roll of fresh sushi

We ordered the banana roll. Oh my! The sweet and savory in the roll was truly delicious! One of the best rolls we've ever had!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND read more

Wow just had dinner there and it was amazing! The baked salmon roll had the best flavor combination, with the fish, the sauces, the perfectly cooked salmon on top; easily the best baked salmon roll I've ever had. We got the albacore roll too and it was so fresh and delicious, and good size portions, I don't have a single complaint. The udon was so comforting and the broth was flavorful, exactly what I was craving. The chefs at the bar were really cool too and just overall a really good atmosphere! Thank you for such a great dinner, we will be back soon! :) read more

Service is terrible they were super rude when my friend asked for another egg for her ramen because the one we got looked SCRAMBLED! Obviously super inauthentic which wouldn't have been a problem if the food also wasn't bland and kind of gross. The noodles looked like maurichan ramen I could've made better in 5 min. read more

We stopped here on the recommendation of a local friend who spoke of it very positively. Unfortunately our experience did not live up to her own. Ordering take-out for two, we had the chicken teriyaki dinner ($15.99 - comes with miso soup and rice), an order of chicken fried rice ( $11.99), and a spicy ramen soup ($11.99). On the upside, they don't skimp on the portions - each portion was large, as seen in the attached photos. On the downside, the chicken itself in the chicken teriyaki was dry and chewy - a big disappointment. The vegetables in the teriyaki were good, but the large side of white rice was just "okay" - nothing to write home about - as was the small cup of miso soup. The ramen soup also came in a large portion - looked like a quart - but they had put the noodles inside the soup as opposed to on the side, which is how ramen usually comes. Because the noodles were already in the soup (see attached photo), they were soggy, when they should have been crisp.The large portion of chicken fried rice unfortunately had the same chicken as what was in the teriyaki, and we also found it to be disappointingly dry and chewy. The rice was okay. I really dislike writing even partially negative reviews, and I am more than happy when I am able to share a positive dining experience and recommend a business - especially a smaller business like this one - wholeheartedly. Sadly that's not the case with Hamachi Sushi. Maybe because they are primarily a sushi place, their sushi is better than anything we ordered. I give them 3 stars for portion size, the vegetables in the teriyaki and what was just "okay' - but that's really being generous considering the taste and texture of the chicken in two of the dishes and what they did to the ramen soup. With so many other dining choices (Japanese restaurants among them) in the Coachella Valley, we would not return here. read more

Amazing service food is yummy. Staff is very welcoming definitely my go to spot for date night.

My family and I have been coming here since they opened and the quality of the SERVICE has gone down hill, especially when the owner is not present. I was there this afternoon, March 15, and it took staff over 10 minutes to take our drink order. When we asked the waitress to take our food order she told us she'd be back, then she asked her male coworker if he had taken our order to which he responded NO. The wait staff continued to ignore our table and did not take our order even after asking. This caused my party to leave. The staff was aware of the discomfort and they did not even offer an apology or try to resolve the lack of proper service. If you're looking for a place where staff picks and chooses who they serve FIRST, this is your place to go! read more

Honestly, very very mediocre sushi. Portions are great. One of people in my party ordered spicy ramen thinking it's japanese miso/soyu based ramen with spice, but it was one of those koream instant ramen with added veggies (i.e. shinramen, jinramen, etc). read more

Going out to eat for food these days is a crapshoot. And in this case, it is crap! Tough fish that was inedible and medicinal. I ordered the sushi boat and had two pieces of fish which were rubbery and hard. We also ordered a baked salmon roll, one bite, and the fish tasted off and so we sent it back. And that was what I mean by medicinal. Furthermore salmon is not opaque , but more of coral, like salmon! It is bright and full of life. It's very clear that the quality of product here is the lowest on the spectrum. On top of the deplorable food, it took 30 minutes for us to be served and we weren't served our meals at the same time. Once I sent back my salmon roll the chef behind the sushi counter asked me why I had sent back the role and I had told him that the item was medicinal. Instead of letting it go or offering me something else, he told me that people don't send back food there. Well, this person did. The establishment has no pride in their quality of product. The head sushi chef is absolutely obnoxious. You don't scold your customers for sending a product back that is inedible. Constructive criticism! Open your minds! read more
