Harumi Sushi - I love the fried sushi! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Seaside, California

Food is consistently solid and reasonably priced. Great service and friendly staff. I definitely recommend!

I had an incredible experience at Haramuni Sushi. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt welcoming and authentic. The restaurant is clean, comfortable, and has a great vibe for both a casual meal and a special night out. The sushi was absolutely outstanding--fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. You can really taste the quality in every bite. Everything we ordered was prepared with care and attention to detail, making the whole dining experience memorable. What truly makes this place special, though, is the owners. They are amazing--genuinely kind, attentive, and passionate about what they do. Their hospitality makes you feel valued as a customer and adds a personal touch you don't find everywhere. Highly recommend Haramuni Sushi to anyone looking for high-quality sushi and exceptional service. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

I had a great experience at Harumi Restaurant in Seaside! The sushi was good. One thing I really appreciated is that they offer lunch and dinner bento boxes even on weekends. Most places only have lunch specials Monday through Friday, so this was a huge plus. I ordered the bento box with salmon and sashimi (no rice), along with the Big Sur roll, also without rice. Everything was absolutely delicious and customized perfectly to my request. A special shoutout to Elaine, our server--she was amazing! We came right at opening (noon), and there were only two servers at the time, but Elaine was handling most of the tables with ease. She was incredibly attentive, efficient, and made sure everyone was taken care of. read more

If you're looking for amazing Japanese food in Monterey County, I can't recommend Harumi's Sushi enough. I've been coming here for years, and it's consistently my go-to spot. From the moment you walk in, the hospitality makes you feel welcome, and the quality of the food speaks for itself. Their house salad with that signature dressing is seriously addictive, and the beef teriyaki stands out because they use real, high-quality steak, not something you find everywhere. And if you love sushi, you have to try the Ooh La La roll, it's easily one of my favorites and always hits the mark. Whether you're a local or just visiting the area, this is the kind of place you'll keep coming back to. For great food, great service, and a reliable, top-tier experience, Harumi's is always my first choice. read more

The restaurant is cool. The sushi bar is cool and very popular. The dining is good as well. Our service was fine and the waitress was very friendly. I ordered the kuromayo ramen. Very good soup broth. I added chili oil to it, much better. (Had to request the chili oil) the chashu in the ramen is so good. Very well made. read more

Found this restaurant on yelp and decided to give it a try. We went on a weekday afternoon right at 4:50ish to find out the are closed until 5:00pm. No biggie so we walked around the plaza until they reopened at 5 PM and were promptly seated. They have a good selection of items on the menu with some specials. The hostess was very nice and attentive. The food however, was just OK. I did not particularly love my sushi roll as it had way too much cream cheese that overpowered the roll and everything else was just average. We ended up taking about half of the food to go because we didn't love how it tasted unfortunately. Normally, when the food is delicious, my husband will clean his plate. This time we found it to be a little bland and not flavorful. It was, however, fresh. The atmosphere of the place is nice however it gets pretty busy around 5:30pm. I think overall based on the yelp reviews, it was worth the try, but will continue to try out other sushi spots in the area. read more

Harumi Sushi - Mochi ice cream - Sushi Bars Near Me - Seaside, California

visiting Monterey and craving for sushi. found this place that has a decent sushi bar. 3 sushi chefs, 1 asian chef who doesn't speak much English. most orders are run by the hispanic chef who spoke fluent english. they do have a combination of sushi rolls and other typical Japanese menu items. we don't usually order rolls as we felt it's too much rice to fill the tummy too fast. but we still ended up ordering 2 rolls, lana roll and protein roll. then we ordered a tonkatsu ramen to share at the end. the rolls were average, portion was similar to what we're used to from SoCal. price is higher but not by much. when the ramen came, hubby and I both thought it was good portion in a large bowl. lots of chashu pork belly (5 pieces). soup was very flavorful. we were surprise to see that we got charged additional $4 for extra chashu (which we didn't order but waitress's english had a strong accent so there might have been a misunderstanding?) but $4 for 5 pieces of chashu? we wondered how many pieces comes with the original order? read more

We came for some ramen dinner. I ordered the miso ramen and while it looked appetizing, it felt lacking flavor wise, almost like it needed more salt. I tried my friends' tonkatsu ramen and that was delicious. Also tried their chicken karaage which was pretty good. The service is pretty fast. read more

Food was amazing, ambiance was great but the service was not as good. I went there for lunch to get some ME time. The lady took my order and I asked to keep the menu in case. I went to the restroom, came back and the menu was gone. I took a menu from the counter then not even 5 minutes with reviewing it, I set it down and the same lady was ready to grab it without even asking if I was done with it. I felt rushed. read more

Harumi Sushi - Big Sur Roll #1 (No Rice) Protein Roll (No Rice) - Sushi Bars Near Me - Seaside, California

We were nearby playing pinball at Lynn's Arcade and got hungry. I asked and was told that Harumi was a solid choice, that many of their regular pinball players liked the restaurant. Often, when I'm going out to eat at a Japanese Restaurant, I'll either go all sashimi or get an American style Bento Box. Occasionally, I'll get Ramen or Udon. It's not unusual for me to get Kama, Tempura, Deep Fried Oysters, Agadashi Tofu or Karaage for appetizer. Today, we had a nice lunch at an Indian Buffet and just weren't "that" hungry. It also bugged me a bit that there was a sign in the window advertising for a Sushi Chef. It's not like there's a dearth of unemployed Sushi Chefs walking around the Central Coast looking for their next restaurant job. I ordered a three-item bento with Tonkatsu, Shrimp Tempura and Sashimi. The bento also came with Rice, Miso Soup and Salad. Instead of a more traditional partitioned bento box, it all came on a plate. I was right to be concerned about the sign looking for a Sushi Chef. I got three pieces each of Maguro and Salmon. The serving temperature was good and that's the only positive statement I can make. Presentation is always an important part of plating Japanese food. My fish had an odd appearance, was not properly blocked and simply cut in strange shapes. Short and chunky pieces rather than neat uniform slices. The Tempura batter was hard although the Shrimp themselves were good. The Tonkatsu had zero fat which made it dry. It too had a hard crust. I ate about 1/2 my meal and took the rest to go. She ordered Saba Shioyaki Dinner. It came with two pieces of mackerel on a sizzling platter. The presentation was good, but the fish stuck to the platter, was dry, and had way more bones than it should have. She also took leftovers. It was a passable dinner, but not one that we would want to repeat. read more

Absolutely delicious casual sushi spot. I'm a huge fan of yellowtail, so I got the Megan's roll and hand roll and they were so satisfying. Service was very friendly and quick. Prices reasonable. Wish I lived closer so I could come back sooner! read more

Looking for Sushi, this local restaurant can be an option. Not super special but the food is pretty good and the staff are friendly. Upon entering most Japanese restaurants you receive a greeting and we were not. In fact we were ignored for a good 5 minutes. Once we were acknowledged we got to choose the table we liked. The staff quickly took our drink order: black tea. And we were left to peruse the extensive menu. Careful to not order too much we opted for the Avocado appetizer and it came well before our main order of Sushi. The avocado was creamy with a nice charred crust that was quite tasty. We all ordered our own Sushi rolls: California (a stand-by), The Big Boy and mine was a combination of salmon and tuna, called The Volcano Roll comes fried. They arrived fresh and with generous slices. Our server Yvonne disappeared but was replaced by others. The bill came to $80.00 with tax and tip which seemed a bit pricey with no alcohol or dessert added. Likely going to look around for a more memorable experience but Harumi Sushi can be counted on to deliver when one is in the mood for some basically good food. Updated menu photos with new prices ! read more

Delicious Japanese food and fresh sushi at reasonable prices! Menu offers a wide variety of options and service is fast and friendly. Makes for a perfect lunch or relaxed dinner spot. Food is tasty and flavorful and fresh! Bento boxes are my top choice as well as their chicken katsu (lighter than the traditional pork version). Definitely recommend putting on your list for Japanese food in the area! Great food, value, and welcoming atmosphere every time! read more

We came here for lunch on a rainy day, this is a hidden gem! Prices are reasonable and their bento portion size is pretty big. We ordered the 3 entree bento box. They did not disappoint, the tempura variety is very good. The gyoza are plentiful. The katsu was not over cooked. Bento box also came with salad and miso soup which got me full. We also tried a few nigiri, tako wasabi was excellent, bay scallops was fresh, rainbow roll was average. To our surprise they have bluefin kama available which we ordered immediately since not all sushi restaurant has this item readily available. Service was very tentative. We had to pack our bento boxes for dinner. We are really happy to find this place. Restaurant do charge 18% for 5 of us. We were so impress with this spot, we came back for dinner!! 4.5 stars read more

The black cod with miso marinade appetizer was delicious! I've had this at other restaurants and had to try it here. Great flavor throughout the dish, on the fish, the asparagus, and the mushrooms. I'm not a mushroom lover but these were delicious and cooked to where they were still with a "bite" . This appetizer isn't listed on the printed menu, but is listed on the specials board. It's been listed the last few months. The black cod was soft and flaky, tender from the marinade. Parts of the outer edges were a bit carmelized from the cooking. I also had the Cherry Blossom roll and the seaweed salad. Fresh and tasty! read more

The food was incredible, the atmosphere was relaxed and casual (the way I like it), and the service was exceptional! We had a cooked cod dish garnished with asparagrus and mushrooms that was just spectacular. Highly. Highly. Highly recommend you try this spot.

We wanted to stop in and try and some rolls for a quick meal. Our server greeted us right away and the food came out quickly. I asked about what the upcharge for escolar might be on a roll and was told "shouldnt be more than $4", so decided not to even check. We really liked the Js Gone Wild roll the best! It had a great combination of flavors with the smoked salmon, torched scallop and sauces. Totally worth the price. The Big Sur #2, which comes with cucumber instead of rice, was pretty good but lacked flavor and for $18.50 was only 5 pieces. We enjoyed the Eternal Sunshine too and had was flavorful. I would recommend the Js Gone Wild and Eternal Sunshine rolls. read more

Unbelievably bad food, I can't understand how a place like this stays in business. Both the sushi and ramen were gross.
