I'm in Austin on business. I was craving sushi and wanted a LOT of it. So, I got on Yelp and searched for some AYCE sushi. Took the uber out here from downtown and, WOW! My wife and I love a good AYCE place back home and this place destroys any one we have ever been to. The service - amazing. The food- amazing. The menu - amazing. I have absolutely nothing bad to say about Hanami. It was a great experience without question. I'll be back for sure. read more

Super friendly staff and a cute place. I googled the word "hanami" and apparently it is the Japanese tradition to sit and enjoy the cherry blossoms. After googling that the decor made more sense. Pretty cherry blossoms in each corner. The AYCE sushi had great options and the while menu was included for $36. The menu didn't exactly match what they were offering or the item descriptions but I enjoyed what I got. Started with crab rangoons and shrimp tempura and a peppered tuna tataki. DELICIOUS START. What was unique to me was that Hanami had rice less rolls but they used crab salad as the rice substitute. Inventive! Every roll had lots of sauce and crab salad in every roll! My one suggestion is to limit those ahead of the official opening and update the menu to reflect what's actually in the roll. We did discover this place during the soft opening but we will happily go back. read more

Arguably best AYCE sushi for the price in Austin area. Was very impressed by the space (clean, modern), service (waiter was super attentive + kitchen was fast with our orders) and quality of food (super fresh fish). You just order a la carte and the food comes out as it is ready. We went for Friday lunch, so lunch price is already great, but they have sashimi available! And they are generous, they do not hold back. Every other sushi place I've been to gives you small slices of fish or takes forever whenever people order sashimi at AYCE as cost cutting measures but not at Hanami. They give you some thick slices of super fresh, well aged, fatty, firm fish. My favorites were the yellowtail and salmon, but everything was super good. The nigiri also come with normal size rice portions unlike other AYCEs, and so they compliment the fish very well. Crudo is also a fun take on the raw fish that is excellent as well. Outside of sashimi/sushi, they also got good rolls (Toro is a must get). The hot foods are also very well executed, especially the skewers. Don't sleep on the oyster mushrooms ones especially! Agedashi tofu is well fried and firm but the best appetizer might be the crispy tuna rice - it's heavier due to the oil but the crisp is immaculate. End your time with some mochi ice cream. You'll leave stuffed but happy! read more

Way better than I expected it to be. Service was fast and friendly and frequent. My favorite was definitely the crudo. 1 ama ebi and 2 blue fin per person. Dinner pricing throughout the weekend. Parking wasn't too bad, has some parking out front or in the parking structure. Came here on a Sunday for lunch and we were sat immediately. read more

Another AYCE spot? Okay! So this place keeps it to sushi/sashimi and some hot Japanese dishes. Our server was super attentive and definitely checked in on us a lot even though we were seated in the back room. It was a little dark and didn't seem as nice when you compare the seating area in the front. Our food came out really fast. We kindly got to try a sample of the bluefin sashimi too! Everything was buttery and a nice cut. So I would give high reviews for the fish. Hot dish wise, it was okay. The agedashi tofu lacked some sauce and I didn't like the way it was fried. We ordered yellowtail collar but received salmon collar instead. They noted the mistake later but I probably would've saved my stomach for something else if I knew it was gonna be salmon. The yakitori wasn't too bad. We tried the short ribs which I thought were tender but just a bit too saucy. They didn't have green tea ice cream so I had to get it in mochi which is fine. Overall this spot is great. Parking might be a bit difficult though with another ayce(?) spot opening nearby .. read more

My newest top favorite AYCE sushi! The fish tasted so fresh, rice to fish ratio was great, sashimi cuts were decently sized, and they had crudo! Our server was so kind and still kept up with everyone's orders even while handling 3 large parties at the same time. She took her time to explain to us different menu items and recommended her favorites as well! The interior is a bit on the darker side so this is a great place for a dinner date. It wasn't loud, just background chatter (think coffee shop). Will definitely come back! read more

Wow! thats it, that's the review! Just kidding but man this is by far the Best AYCE i've had hands down. The crudos, apps, the rolls, nothing we had was bad however the ragoons were over cooked, spicy edemame was basic- taste like the chili garlic sauce was poured over the top and served, the rolls we good tasted as expected for what we ordered, but the Black pepper tuna and escalor crudos stole the show, the spicy tuna tacos were great as well. Our waitress was kind and made sure to check in often. 10/10 recommend. read more

We went here for lunch on a weekday. The restaurant has a welcoming ambiance as we entered. To be honest, we had our expectation set low given the recent newly opened AYCE restaurants in the area that were all consistently underwhelming. Hanami, despite the mixed reviews from other foodies in the area, we had one of the best experience at a AYCE sushi restaurant. We tried all of their crudo and they're all very good. The fish were refresh and buttery. Sashimi's are quite fresh too. Bluefin tuna and ama ebi has a limit per person but each piece we had was amazing and the cut was generous as well. Their mini tacos were flavorful, and the taco shells are light and crunchy. Salmon rice cake is surprisingly good. The rice cake is crispy and has a hint from sweetness from coconut. Onion & Pork, king mushroom, and chicken & cheese skewers are delicious and moist We also ordered Tonkatsu Ramen. Decent flavor, their pork and egg was pretty legit in flavor but we would pass given how incredible the other dishes and fresh seafood were. Mochi ice cream is legit. The mochi outer layer is fresh and soft. My personal favorite is the matcha ice cream inside. The mango and strawberry ice cream are good flavor and perfect for the little ones. Service was great. Our server was attentive and gave us some good recommendations. read more

Awesome! I've been wanting to try this place for a while. It is conveniently located across the street from the Crescent center. Parking is pretty limited, but it is very close by the train and multiple bus stops. They're all you can eat deal cannot be beat. They have a ton of appetizers and rolls to choose from. I really enjoyed their drinks hamachi crudo the best. I have an allergy and they were very accommodating. Our waiter Lemon was super nice and kept the food coming. Cute atmosphere too. I will definitely be back! read more

The food here was pretty good. The servers were really nice. Each roll you get from the all you can eat section are kind of large. Especially the special rolls come packed with a lot of sauce which kind of fills you up more quickly. The service speed can be a bit moderate to slow. It was not that busy getting here at 6 on a Saturday, so we got seated quickly. Overall not a bad spot. But not sure if it is one I would frequent. read more

Amazing ayce sushi! Rolls delicious & sushi sashimi on point. Appetizers, especially mussels were so good & the crudos yummy. Great service as well! Pls open a location in Cedar Park as there isn't an ayce sushi joint. Will definitely tell all our friends & family to go enjoy Hanami. Great ambiance. Perfect for dates or family eats. read more

I am a regular customer of this restaurant for the last 4 months (2-3 times a month). On last Saturday (08/22/26), I had a really disappointing experience with the AYCE service. After my first batch, I put an order of 3 sushi rolls which took a while to get to the table (40 minutes of wait). By the way, only 2 arrived and then I canceled the 3rd one, as I saw customers who made their orders after me of the same thing or even more. I'm not sure what happened, but I actually don't wanna go back. I felt disrespected for nothing. read more

Hanami AYCE Sushi - 3 rolls of second batch, which took over 40 minutes tô get to my table. - Japanese Near Me - Austin, Texas

I recently visited Hanami to celebrate a friends birthday. As soon as I arrived there was already a spread of crudo for the table. Our server was so kind and was quick to always check on us and always made sure to keep our orders coming. We tried so much sushi and all of it was amazing. I was impressed by the cuts of fish and the portions. I will definitely be back. read more

Hanami AYCE Sushi is still in their "soft opening" phase but I'm optimistic that they can rise to the top of AYCE sushi places near Austin with some tweaks and improvements. Overall, the quality matches the price and the menu offerings have a good variety but the service and speed can be hit or miss. However, the servers are super friendly, the interior is stunning, and everything was very clean! FAST FACTS: * Parking - a few spots in front of the building but also garage parking nearby with 2 hours of free parking available * Reservations - available online through OpenTable * Online ordering - available for pickup on their website (a la carte only) SERVICE - We arrived at 7:40 pm for an 8:00 pm reservation and were told our table would be available in about 10-15 minutes. We were seated at 8:20 pm (40 minutes after arriving and 20 minutes after our reservation time). Our server was friendly, took our order quickly, and made sure to refill our waters during the meal. Finished plates were cleared from the table efficiently. Non-sushi items came out quickly (gyoza, takoyaki, mini tacos, noodles, etc. took 5-10 minutes after ordering) while sashimi and rolls took much longer (15-20 minutes after ordering). PRICING - The AYCE dinner is $36.95 for adults and includes all of the items on the menu with the exception of some extra charges for additional pieces wagyu, ama ebi, and bluefin tuna beyond the first order. The pricing is incredibly reasonable for the quality of ingredients... especially if you order lots of sashimi or rolls. ORDERING PROCESS - You can order 4 different items per person at a time (mostly due to table space) but multiple pieces of sashimi or nigiri count as a single item. Items come out as they are prepared and ready so I recommend ordering a mixture of appetizers/robata/mini tacos/soup/salad/noodles and sashimi/nigiri/rolls because the sashimi/nigiri/rolls take longer to prepare. FAVORITE ITEMS: * Mini tacos (both the spicy tuna and shrimp were delicious and come on a fried wonton shell) * Volcano roll (it's a lot but the spicy tuna on top with the eel sauce and crunch works well) * Spider roll (if you love soft shell crap, this is for you) * Double shrimp roll (spicy ponzu goes really well with the shrimp) * Ebi nigiri (simple but delicious) * Crab wonton (fried perfectly and super flavorful filling) JUST OKAY ITEMS: * Takoyaki (I love Takoyaki and this was a little too mushy inside) * Gyoza chicken (fried well but not super flavorful) * Yaki udon chicken (good option to order at the beginning if you're super hungry and waiting for sushi rolls) * Unagi sashimi (I love unagi but this was a little too saucy) * Mango tango roll (I enjoy the mango flavor but my husband didn't care for it) * Geisha roll (good mixture of fish but nothing super special) * Mochi ice cream (strawberry was better than the green tea) * Tempura Oreos (delicious but they came out and sat while we finished other items) ITEMS I WOULDN'T ORDER AGAIN: * Baked scallop roll (way too much going on and super messy) * Pineapple beef robata (good char flavor but the beef was tough) This was my first time at Hanami AYCE Sushi and I'll definitely be back to try it again after their soft opening. Compared to other AYCE sushi places, the quality is definitely higher and they have a great variety of menu offerings. If they can get the sushi rolls to come out faster, this will be one of my favorite spots to frequent when I want copious amounts of sushi! (It's worth noting I visited a week after returning from Japan so my standards for sushi were pretty high) read more

We recently came to try out the newest AYCE sushi spot in town, but overall left desiring more. Our reservation was at 4PM on a Saturday because we didn't want to interfere with the dinner rush hour. The restaurant did not have a ton of customers yet but the overall service was still relatively slow. They might have been understaffed at the time because our waiter was saying how she just started her shift and walked into chaos lol. We ordered a total of 3 different rounds but every time we were finished with one round, we still did not see the waiter and essentially had to flag her down to put in our next order. Again, she was very friendly but I unfortunately expected more from the overall service. As for the food, I think the sashimi and crudo were some of my favorites! The crudo particularly had a tangy and savory sauce that complimented well with the fish. Their version of a taco was also interesting where the taco shell was made from the same ingredient as the crispy wonton strips you put into salads or egg drop soup. That being said, I did not like the batter that they used for the calamari -- it was too thick and didn't feel crispy enough. The beef short ribs (Galbi) had a nice flavor profile but half of the pieces were essentially fatty meat (and this was consistent because we ordered that dish 3 different times). To end on a positive note though, the price point was 5/5! I believe it was about $37/per person for dinner/weekend pricing for AYCE, which wasn't bad at all! Overall, I'd give this restaurant a 3.5/5 when considering all of the factors from above. read more

Hanami AYCE Sushi - Crudo (Escolar, Albacore, Hamachi) - Japanese Near Me - Austin, Texas

A new AYCE sushi joint that does not disappoint! Hanami keeps a high quality selection paired with great customer service. The Damon, yellow fish, tuna, and everything else was made to perfection. I'd also recommend a miso soup and some of the crudo options. Only thing we got that was a 4/5 was the Philly roll due to it having a bit too much cream cheese but aside from that everything was close to perfect! Seating and lighting were nice as you can see in my video. Very clean restaurant as well and the parking situation isn't terrible since there's a garage nearby. Overall a solid 4.5/5 but rounding up to 5 since there wasn't anything that would really make me rate it less than that. read more

We got sushi in addition to some other things. Galbi was very well flavored and the tonkatsu was good. Our 4 piece unagi took over 25 minutes and we had our server put it in again. To which it finally came out. When it did, it was fabulous and we ordered 8 more. The other items we ordered all came out in a timely manner. The only weird thing is they have a 4 piece limit (e.g. 1 nigiri counts as 1 piece, so 4 nigiri's at a time, finish that. THEN you can order again. Not as big a deal if you order rolls and apps) Aside from the snafu of our unagi taking a long time, we really enjoyed the experience. The salmon and tuna weren't cut too big or small and tasted great. read more

I was here once before and didn't have any issues. Myself and three friends just went on Sunday August 16th. We got the AYCE sushi. We had assorted rolls and service was fine. The wait staff was good and food came out quickly. Then Tuesday morning it happened. I got violently ill from 4am on Tuesday morning, it was coming out from both ends! Three of the 4 in my party all got sick as well with stomach issues. If it was just me I could say it was something else or maybe I just didn't have something that agreed with me but when 2 other people that ate got sick as well it was something with the food. Will not be going back. read more

I love the decor in this place! Our party of 5 was seated earlier than our reservation time which was nice because we were already starving upon already after a long drive. The service was shockingly fast! We were amazed at how quickly our dishes came from ordering to the table. The fish was fresh, flavorful and came out with awesome presentation. However, I do have to shave a star for them being out of several items on the menu especially since we came within the hour that they first opened, on a weekend, and on a holiday that we expected they would have everything available in preparation for the business on this day. Also, parking is free in the structure for the first 2 hours. The system was down briefly while we were trying to exit and we were trapped with several cars trying to leave for about 10mins. Then it started working again out of nowhere. So just be wary of that. read more

THE BIG: In the space of the former brewtorium. AYCE sushi for the win! Located in the Crestview area of Austin near the 99 ranch. Private lot parking available with 2h validation. THE BLACK AND WHITE: I came here with a group of friends on a Saturday night. We were sat in the backroom where it was a bit quieter but the space was packed. It is an a la carte style ordering and we got everything. Crudo, sashimi, nigiri, sushi rolls, appetizers, and for dessert there's frozen mochi! THE FINAL BAMBOO: Ultimately, it was about $90 for two people AYCE. Very good deal for pretty fresh sushi fish. read more

Solid, solid AYCE spot. Great ambience, great service, super friendly staff, and solid food! There is plenty to pick from off their AYCE menu: plenty of rolls, plenty of sashimi/nigiri pieces, and all kinds of noodles and meats, etc. absolutely loved it and will definitely be back. read more

I rarely give out 5-star ratings, especially for All-You-Can-Eat (AYCE) restaurants which almost always sacrifice food quality for volume. Hanami is the exception to the rule. After visiting during their soft opening, I knew the potential was there, and coming back now, they have truly dialed it in. The freshness of the fish here is superb. It is truly unheard of to find an AYCE spot that is this generous with sashimi. Most places either serve poor quality fish or force you to order nigiri just to fill you up on rice, but the salmon here is a personal favorite and consistently excellent. There are no heat lamps or buffet lines. Everything is prepared to order, including huge, full-sized rolls and incredible tempura fried veggies. They even offer unique perks like fried ice cream and unlimited mochi, while my kids specifically love the skewers. The lunch service was phenomenal, efficient, friendly, and observant. The owners are clearly attentive to the dining room, and the beautifully decorated space makes the experience feel high end rather than a typical high volume joint. If you are looking for a reasonable price without compromising on quality, this is the spot. I can't say enough good things about it. read more

This was our first time at Hanami and it was AMAZING! Food was 10/10 and we received wonderful service from Alex. Right from the jump, Alex made sure to ask us for any dietary or allergy restrictions. Which to me is highly important since I'm allergic to avocado. He was attentive and had wonderful customer service! We'll definitely be back because of him and the food. Thank you again Alex! You were the best. read more

Hanami AYCE Sushi - Japanese Near Me - Austin, Texas

Hanami is a super solid AYCE sushi spot. I've visited twice and always had impeccable service. Their fish is very fresh for and AYCE spot and I really enjoyed their crudos. They also have some hot dish items but I definitely recommend their sushi more since the fried food takes longer to come out and their galbi was pretty tough to eat. They have all the classic rolls but also no rice rolls which was cool to see on the menu. I ended up really enjoying the tuna lover roll. read more

Quality of food and service is great hear! However, expect to wait awhile for your food. I came with a group of 9 on a Saturday evening. We made a reservation in advanced for a 5p seating. There is limited parking in the outdoor lot and free 2hr parking in the garage. Inside the decor is modern, with low lights, and loud music. Lots of booths and tables with a sushi bar in the back. I arrived around 5:15 with a friend who pre ordered some items. Food that I ordered didn't come out until 6/6:30. Close to 7:15, we were still waiting on some rolls and I had to leave. What I did try was very good. Crudo and sashimi comes out fast and is SUPER FRESH. The Yellow Tail Collarbone is delish. I was able to try a few rolls that were also good. I also thought the chicken skewer was moist and tender. Overall, the quality is there, but a lot of kinks need to be iron out to get the sushi out faster. read more

Came here for lunch on a Sunday so I wasn't able to get the lunch AYCE pricing since the lunch pricing is only available on weekdays. However the dinner pricing is still under $40 so a pretty good deal for AYCE sushi. My friend and I were seated right away. Everything we ordered tasted fresh and delicious. My favorite sashimi was the blue fin tuna, yellowtail and tuna. My favorite roll was the monster roll. I only ordered two rolls cause I wanted to have more room to try everything. I would definitely recommend ordering only one roll to start cause the rolls have a ton of rice and comes with 8 pieces. As for the ambiance, I don't know if it's the place or the fact the people at the table next to us were so loud that we can barely hear each other talk. Since we're both pretty hungry, it wasn't too much of a big deal that we can't hear each other. read more

I have been here twice now, and both times did not disappoint. For the lunch price which is around $25, it is very reasonable. Their salmon sashimi is sliced thick and fresh, and other sashimi to recommend is probably the escolar and the tamago. Of the two rolls we ordered (crazy roll + hanami roll), the hanami was definitely the winner. We also enjoyed their green bean and king oyster robata skewers although the green bean could absolutely use less sauce, and the agedashi tofu appetizer was decent. What I wouldn't get again is probably the spicy sashimi salad, as well as most of their tempura items. We are not a fan of their batter, it's too heavy. I would love to return and try their drinks sometime! The vibe is modern and not too loud, which is great. Overall, would definitely return again and stuff ourselves again! 100% worth. read more

I came for the AYCE dinner option on a Wednesday and had a great experience. Not too many diners on a weeknight so we were seated promptly. Our service was great; the servers kept checking in on us and refilling our waters. We paced ourselves and got to try a little bit of everything. The sashimi pieces were excellent! They were very well portioned, fresh, and the presentation was pretty. We also tried other menu items like the galbi, sesame balls, crudo, and robata - all were pretty spot on. I'd say we got our money's worth and more. Definitely one of the better AYCE sushi places in Austin! read more

Across from 99 Ranch near crescent plaza this all you can eat sushi spot was pretty good. Service was great! Went on a Friday afternoon at 12pm, wasn't too busy we got seated immediately. It did start picking up midway thru. I really enjoyed the theme of the restaurant, great atmosphere. Our server was great, very attentive. My girlfriend and I have had a lot of sushi throughout Austin, including over seas in Japan. I would definitely give this place a try. We enjoyed our time, and the speediness of the food after we'd order. The all you can eat lunch menu has quite a bit of options. I do my best to rate a restaurant based on everything so I do give it a 5 star rating! However this is more of a subjective opinion. When it comes to the specialty rolls and the Crudo we chose, I'm not too fond of the Sriracha drops on some of the items we chose. It really takes away from the real flavors I'm seeking. Then again I avoid any roll that has cream cheese simply because I enjoy the actual flavor of the fish and it becomes way over powering. Again this is more of a subjective opinion, I love Sriracha, but just not on my rolls or sushi. I prefer for of a traditional spice with Wasabi. Over all it was a great time and well priced for the all you can eat. I did ask when they get busiest the most and of course it's on the weekends during dinner. There is parking validation, also the first 2 hours of parking in the garage is free! Anyways had a great time, give this place a try if you haven't! And enjoy. I recommend going during the week, and if you go for dinner on the weekends definitely call and make reservations! That's an option. Thanks for the good time! read more

Sushi was pretty OK this was my first time doing an all you can eat. Our server Lemon was excellent!

I've had my fair share of AYCE sushi in Austin. It's official - this is my new favorite. Quality fish. Delicious. Good variety. Highly recommend. We will definitely be back. Oh and get the crudo!! I saw a review about service being bad? Our waiter was top notch. We received our food very fast. Granted we did come for a Friday lunch and there weren't a ton of people. Don't forget the crudo!! read more

Worst customer service. Alex was worst server at all. At a restaurant, a bug landed on my sashimi so I told the server. He even didnt offering to replace the food, he charged me an extra waste charge for the leftover food. I told him to take that out from bill he said he desnt want to. read more

Shout out to the team! Lemon our server was very attentive! He made our dining enjoyable. We had the all you can eat and it was worth it! We rather spend our time here than Kura.

Last visit I had the noodles was a No but I gave it a try again, I got the tonkatsu ramen and they are actually good. Food came out cooked to order. Sushi is fresh and delicious. I tried the yakisobo beef - it's alright. Overall visit I love it! Thanks to Lemon! Definitely will come back. read more

First AYCE sushi spot I've tried in a long time. Quite a few of these have been popping up recently and are great when you want some decent sushi without breaking the bank. Overall, the nigiri here were all pretty solid - good rice to fish ratio. The robata skewers (shrimp bacon I remember) were nice as well if you wanted something a little different. And the galbi is another hot food option I would recommend as well. Other than that, get your favorite sushi, try some of the crudo (I enjoyed the pepper tuna one), and grab a roll or two if you want to really fill yourself up! In the end, a very solid AYCE sushi spot. Would come here again when a large sushi craving strikes me. read more

Lunch was $25.95 which is good price for good sashimi and ALL you can eat, except for some upcharges (ama ebi (fresh shrimp), bluefin tuna, and waygu beef sashimi). You can only order 4 items at a time but several of the same is considered 1 item. The sashimi fish was fresh, tender, and tasty - even though unevenly cut. There was a good assortment. Also had the tempura (veggies and shrimp both tasty though would have preferred a lighter batter), robata skewers (onion pork and garlic chicken. Beef was not tasty and tough), crudo (great morsels), handrolls (perfect option from heavier more filling rolls) - like the eel and avocado, salmon skin was a little heavy handed with the skin but tasted good), fried calamari was a miss. They were out of tempura ice cream, green tea ice cream was bizarre (not in a good way) but mochi was fantastic (mango and green tea) Service was fantastic (thank you, Lily), good decor, sound level, etc. Fortunately, we were able to get a parking space, but it might be better to park at the Crescent Shopping Center across Lamar and Airport Blvd. Appreciated that we could share dishes (unlike Sushi Warrior). Didn't have a drink but the options looked good. read more

I hadn't eaten sushi in a while and examined reviews of different AYCE places in Austin when I recently visited friends. One reviewer called Hanami Sushi the best. So I decided to give them a try. The service was okay. The food was good. I was happy they made me fried rice without peas (which I don't like), This one had tuna tacos that I've never had before. A couple of things I didn't care for. One was the price. It was higher than similar places I've eaten at during lunch hours. Also, the background music was mostly hip-hop hits from the last 25 years. I'd prefer Asian music when eating Asian food. Still, I'm glad I ate here. read more
