We arrived for sushi at 11:30 a.m., right when they opened, and the sushi was incredibly fresh and delicious -- truly excellent. The vegetarian roll there is always consistently amazing. I really love this place, and there's plenty of parking, which makes it even better. read more

I am surprised by the bad reviews. We had excellent service. And the sushi was excellent as well. I got the macuto tuna, delicious. I got the yellowtail belly, like butter. Caterpillar roll, delicious. Excellent tempura. Those are kind of the basics that to me if they are good, the restaurant is good. Earlier in the week I tried another place in Westlake that was higher rated, and this place was far better. Few things to improve - The sushi rice was a little bit warm, must have been freshly made. But didn't take away from the experience. The salad dressing on the house salad was too much mayo-better to use one do the sesame or ginger vinegar based dressings. Try the rice beer! I plan to come back, and my friends eat here all the time and love it. read more

This is a good three-star option for value. Not the most amazing sushi but a varied menu, great for family dining. The service is also friendly, three stars for being attentive but not a lot of menu guidance. That's okay- they succeed at the most important aspects, which is bringing you your food in a timely fashion. Again, three stars on ambiance- the tables are spaced nicely, it's not too noisy and they have these movable sliding room dividers that are a bit awkward, but do serve as a privacy barrier. Hard to explain. Can't decide if I find them annoying or charming. They're not allowed of options in that part of town, especially for sit down. This is a good, reliable, steady choice in a ever shrinking field of options. read more

We're went to this restaurant on Saturday that was really bad experience we never had . First restaurant vibe is so bad we don't welcome from them at all . Food was average is okay but service was terrible. Our server was Completely thoughtless. We're always need to looking for her to ask something we need also she always gave bad attitude we didn't like her at all. Her name was darma we think but she don't have fish knowledge can't explain well to the customers and gave bad attitude we never go back read more

Been coming here for years. It's old reliable. Freshness, taste, price and service. The lunch and dinner combos are pretty good deals. Also omakase is available upon request. There are places with more interesting menus, better value or fancier ambiance. But Hanami offers patrons a decent all around proposition when all things considered. read more

This place had fantastic, fresh, and innovative sushi! I am shocked that it's not rated more highly and felt compelled to share my experience. I had a solo dinner at the sushi bar one evening while traveling for work. I tried a few things and they were all incredible and very fresh, but the hand roll on special was a standout selection! Service was attentive, fast and all staff were incredibly respectful and kind. There are other more hyped sushi places in the area, but this will be my new go-to. Fantastic! Kicking myself for not trying this place sooner. read more

I've been coming to Hanamk Sushi for over 15 years. The food here is good. Really good. There is fresh sushi and sashimi. Service is good and quick. On the last visit here, I got the three choice meal - tempura, nigiri sushi and sashimi. I enjoyed all of it Tasty food and a treat on the eyes as there are so many colors in the meal! My only downfall of this recently meal experience was the smell inside the restaurant. There was a heavy grease smell in the restaurant and my table mate and I went back to work smelling like grease. Wondering if it was only a problem that day? Never experienced it before and will still continue to patronize this restaurant because of its good food! read more

I'm not sure why this place has a low rating. The food is fireeeee. I usually get the crispy rice with tuna #2 with ponzu & extra jalapenos on the side, truffle edamame, salmon teriyaki, or chilean sea bass. Friendly service as well read more

I never make reviews but for this place, I'll make an exception. The sushi is INCREDIBLE!' The service is impeccable. Everything comes out so fast and it's high quality fresh fish. I recommend this place to all my sushi and seafood lovers! read more

I stopped by Hanami Sushi for the lunch the other day and I will be stopping by again. The lunch special is a great value and the food was awesome! You choose three items from a list of 6 options for only $22. Everything tasted fresh and well prepared by the staff. On top of that our waitress was friendly and took our order as soon as we were ready to order. The atmosphere and decor of the restaurant definitely fit a Japanese style place. Hanami is definitely going to be a go to stop in Calabasas for myself! read more

I really don't think their reviews give them justice. The fish here is the freshest around and their service is always top notch. We've been going here for years and every time we come in we are greeted with a smile and a pleasant experience. If you want to support a great local sushi spot this is the place. read more

I can't believe they don't have higher scores! Food was fresh and delicious. The service was top notch. We will be back!

Amazing sushi lunch special today! Great quality and superb staff. I will be sure to return soon....

It is my husband's birthday and he chose a place that we used to frequent when we lived in Calabasas. We now live in Thousand Oaks. We haven't been here since Covid 19. The decor has been upgraded and it's beautiful. The food is still the best sushi, since we moved here from upstate New York. Our server was wonderful. The experience reminded us that we need to make this a habit again... read more

Hanami Sushi - Ray and me. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Calabasas, California

Ewwwww. DO NOT COME HERE. Gross food the quality has gone downhill. The worst part is that when I complained about not liking a roll the man said I'm not changing anything or removing from your bill. Horrible service that felt like a Korean sweatshop more than a restaurant. If you are in the area avoid this place. Used to be good but ownership must have changed as everything is a wreck. read more

Great food! A must go. Was glad to know they opened up in Calabasas since closing the Sherman Oaks location. read more

They have a super extensive menu with really great specials/bento/combo deals. The food was okay - expensive for the quality but also expected for this area. The service was decent - nice/friendly waiters but it felt chaotic bc they forgot something in my order until after we were done w everything. I would come back in the future out of convenience but thats the only reason. read more

I don't know how this place doesn't have five stars... It is one of the best sushi places i've tried, I have never ordered one roll here and regretted it. The service is 10/10 and takeout is always so easy to order and pickup! It's just as good, if not better than any sushi place you can find in Malibu. I love it here and hope they stay forever! read more

The food is always very good. As is the service. The sushi is fresh and the portions are generous. It's a great spot for a casual night out.

Hanami Sushi is definitely a step up from your average neighborhood sushi bar. In fact, this restaurant actually has some pretty legit and authentic offerings. Walking in, you'll see many harder to find items imported from Japan right on their specials board, which may include wagyu from Miyazaki, Ma-saba (Wild Japanese Mackerel), Madai (Genuine Red Sea Bream), and much more. The variety and selection is pretty impressive for the area. I've only dined here twice, both times being for their lunch special, but if I lived in the area, I'd definitely try this place out for dinner. Looking at their photos, it appears as though they've had classic items like Kohada, Iwashi, and Sanma in the past. I'd be interested to see how good their dinner sushi is. Speaking to their lunch specials, Hanami offers some pretty decent deals. Both times I've went, I ordered the Combination B special ($15.95), which allows you to choose 3 items from a list of 8, and is served with steamed rice, miso soup, and salad. Choosing the sushi (4 pc nigiri) and sashimi (3 kinds) are no brainers, and my third choice has traditionally gone to the 8 piece California roll as a filler item. Overall, the sushi is pretty good, but I wouldn't say great. The tuna was admittedly a little tasteless, but I did appreciate the small details, like adding wasabi in between the rice and neta (fish), and marinating the albacore and shiromi (white fish) so that soy sauce wasn't necessary. For $15, it's a decent value. During my most recent trip to Hanami (last Friday), service was extremely good. The servers were very fast, efficient, and attentive. If you're in a rush for lunch, I'd say you can definitely power through your meal here. I sat at the bar and thoroughly enjoyed my experience. The atmosphere and ambiance are nice, and service is friendly. Go ahead and check this place out if you're in the area and hungry. It's not a bad spot to stop in at. read more

******* I am extremely angry. I have been coming here since I was in high school. The food is OK. Not great. The service is horrendous. Ambiance is a little dingy low class right space. Do yourself a favor and do not continue to support an establishment that does not care for customer service!! We as consumers have the right and ability to weed out establishments that do not meet basic customer service standards. I don't know who they think they are. They treat you as if they do not care about you or your business. It is only right that I report this because this has happened not only once or twice or three times. I have referred people to this restaurant and have been extremely embarrassed when they tell me of the service they experienced. HORRIBLE. MANAGER CALL ME ASAP. I LEFT MY NAME AND NUMBER AT FRINT DESK. read more

I don't know why this place has 3.5 stars?? Everything I had was absolutely delicious!! I went during the last two hours before closing on a Thursday night. Place was clean, well designed and customer service was great! The bathroom was nice and clean also! Plenty of lot parking and it's free. I had the toro toro roll, shiitake albacore, salmon de crab along with some eel roll but I forgot the name! They were soooo tasty!! I would 100% come back here and try different items. read more

Hanami Sushi - Chili garlic roll, albacore sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Calabasas, California

Been going here for 10+ years and always a great experience! They truly treat you like family with the service and the fish is absolutely delicious and high quality. Every month I enjoy trying the new special dinner they have to offer. Also, their lunch specials, especially the Albacore Special, are some of my favs. One of my favorite and go to restaurants, especially for sushi - 5/5 stars is the least Hanami deserves, I would go 100/5 if the app would let me! read more

I have been going here for years and its always delicious! Ever since the pandemic, I have noticed that there are not that many people that come in, but they are quite busy with take out. Their lunch specials are pretty amazing and are my go tos when I stop by. Definitely a good sushi spot :) read more

Stopped by for lunch and was pleasantly surprised. Hanami Sushi is a nice option within Creekside Village in Calabasas. They do not take reservations for lunch, yet may do so during dinner hours. There is no problem finding a table mid-day. The restaurant serves fresh Sushi in a casual setting with extremely attentive service. We ordered some specialty rolls on my first visit and enjoyed everything. As of this review, I have not tried most of the Sushi options in the area. Regardless, this place is certainly among the best in neighborhood and would certainly return for lunch. read more

We are try to come back this restaurant but it's really disappointed. This place was really busy before but now is feel like dead . We understand that reason why is the business become this much slow because the service was not good vibes are not good food was still kind of okay But the restaurant is something really smell bad too. The cashier at the front they still have same Spanish guy he was so rude and don't know how to talk nicely to the customers. He was super rude . We also feel so disgusting of the cashier guy and one of waitress are flirting like the couples . They're flirting instead of taking care of us. It was really bad service. We ask our waitress name but we're forgot but I think her name start with "D" But when we were asking ponzu,spicy mayo to her that she is always making face to us . We really don't like how she gave attitude to us . She doesn't even speak enough English to be the waitress. This is the last time that we're went to this restaurant. read more

I order from this restaurant once a week, and I have come in for dinner a couple times. The food has always been great, but the service - left much to be desired. And today was the worst experience I've ever had dining in a restaurant. I came in to eat with my sons. They were clearly very busy, especially with all the takeout orders. The 3 servers ran around like chickens with their heads cut off. My one son got his order, but the other one got his only 30 minutes later after the first one was done. When his order finally arrived, I asked for a fork for him, he didn't get it for 20 min until I managed to get our server's attention again. We spilled some sauce on the table and I cleaned it with napkins, but we had to sit at a messy table - no one bothers to clean up or check in with us to see if we needed anything. Getting a server's attention was almost to impossible. My boys wanted desert, so after a few failed attempts to get our server's attention, I managed to get another very unhappy and exhausted server to take our order. She looked annoyed that we needed something. I asked for 2 desert dishes to go and a check. 30 min later - nothing. Apparently our server didn't know anything about the order. At that point we had already spent 2 hours in the restaurant trying to be patient and understanding. I went to talk to the manager who throughout all this time paid zero attention to what was going on on the floor because he was too busy putting together takeout orders and yelling at sushi chefs. I explained to him that I am a frequent customer and order from them every week, but today we are dining in and the experience has been very poor. Instead of engaging with me and asking what went wrong he barked at me "We are doing the best we can!" I tried to explain that the food didn't arrive at the same time, one child had to wait for 30 min to get his dish after the first one was done, the service was poor, the table dirty, and the servers were forgetful and inattentive. He didn't even look at me. I asked if he could give us a discount to compensate for the poor experience. His answer: "You order the food - you pay!" So I did. And I still left at tip because I didn't want to punish the sushi chefs or the servers for their poor manager. But we are not coming back and I will take my weekly orders some place else. I know that restaurants are understaffed and overwhelmed right now. But that is not an excuse to provide such poor experience to diners and to be incredibly rude. If you know that you are having such a busy night with people dining in and placing phone orders - you can shut off 3rd party orders to keep things manageable. But the GREED to fulfill all digital orders apparently is greater at this place than the desire to provide good customer experience to diners. read more

Great local sushi place. Never had a less than perfect meal. Service is great and it's really close to home.

My boyfriend, his friends, and I were very HUNGRY, and just happened to be in the area. This is the first restaurant we saw, so we decided to give it a try. 1. The service was quite good 2. The food was just "ok" (nothing to write home about to be honest 3. The noise level was a bit much I wasn't too impressed and don't intend to come back any time soon. There are better sushi spots like, SHU in beverly glen, Sushi sasabune in Beverly Hills, and Sushi Gen.- just sayin' read more

like all sushi places in LA it's not gonna be fast food pricing. but the food is really good and the menu fairly comprehensive even if you don't like the raw stuff. had a lunch special and picked the spicy tuna and california roll and it was plenty of food for around $22. fish was very fresh and tasty and service was expedient. would definitely return. read more

Was surprised to see a lower rating on this place because wow this is the best sushi I've ever had and I eat sushi at least twice a week. Was less surprised when I noticed most of the complaints were ridiculous. Especially the lady that wanted two tables so she could socially distance from her party, if you're worried about Covid, how about you stay home and not negatively affect a business that's already had a tough year? Anyways, I just came here to rave about how amazing the sushi is, this is the new standard for me. read more

Good sushi the ambience is okay but the food is very good. A little pricey but worth it

The guy at the front is hella RUDE!!!! He is NOT nice and treats people like they are stupid! HE IS RUDE!!! We asked him if he could not be so rude and mean and his response was rude and mean. The seats we were originally at were given to others IN OUR party!!! So there was no need to be a rude ass and tell us to move!!! We come here ALL the time and this same guy is ALWAYS rude!!! Considering not coming here again simply because of this rude person!!! I know it's Monday but Jesus Christ the attitude is NOT necessary!!! We simply sat near our party and were told VERY RUDLY to move!!! HORRIBLE customer service!!! read more

If you just need to eat, food you will get. I eat here because it's close. I eat here often, because I love sushi, but I eat here in spite of the abysmal service, I find the staff downright unfriendly. Never a "hello", never a "thank you". The food is good. Every server here needs to learn ANYTHING about hospitality, but I doubt they'd care to. Unfortunately there is no better alternative nearby. read more
