Imposter tempura roll
Phoebe M.

Terrible customer service. I went on my lunch break here to grab food. I do it pretty regularly for lunch here. I ordered chicken tempura rolls. I get this roll EVERYWHERE. And it's always made the same. If you google a chicken tempura rolls it says it's tempura chicken, avocado, and cucumber. I always ask no cucumber so I get only chicken and avocado. When I say down after driving there to pick it up I go to eat it and it has shredded lettuce in it. Never seen that before. Called to let them know there was a mistake. The girl on the phone said that's how they've always made it. I explained there is no where on the menu that specified a specific way of making these that would be special to the location vs the standard way of making it. I told them I wasn't going to be able to eat this. I'm autistic and I can't handle the texture or I'll throw up. The manager did not care so I guess it just sucks to suck. She refused for me to come back later with the food to show I wouldn't eat it and get my money back or even an option of remaking it. So I just wasted a whole lunch and money. Really shitty on their part.

Salmon avocado Maki roll & Katsu ( mostly eaten )
Rose C.

First time here at a friend's recommendation. I've been looking for a Japanese restaurant and enjoyed the food a lot. We got beef and salmon teriyaki lunch specials. I got salad, friend had miso soup. Appetizers were salmon avocado Maki roll and Katsu. The Maki roll was creamy fresh. Katsu was very crispy outside, flaky inside. Both teriyaki dishes were delicious. I'll be back.

1. Sushi Lunch

Great food and service. I've been here a few times with big groups for Hibachi and it's been great. I also came for some sushi for my bday and the staff was really nice, brought me some ice cream and sang happy birthday to me.

Fried Shrimp Shumai
Shema H.

I love Kumo! I eat here more than I should honestly lol. The food is always a hit 10/10 sushi rolls and 10/10 hibachi. I love getting the super combo hibachi. It comes with shrimp, scallops, filet mignon, and lobster and I always ad the noodles for five dollars. So this meal comes to about $50-$55. The aesthetics is pleasing. Nothing really Instagram crazy but nice date night can dress up or dress down either way. Service is fast and pleasant.

Shrimp 3. Hibichi Shrimp Dinner
Autumn B.

I have become a regular for their shrimp & scallop hibachi. The sushi rolls are also good. The star reduction is because I feel like the service could be better but overall the food is great & the portion size is huge. I always have left overs.

24. Hibachi Shrimp Lunch fried rice side
Brittany P.

Shrimp hibachi was delicious! Portion was huge! Dumpling soup had a strange taste and didn't enjoy it. Extra salads, soups, & dips were given to my job since we put in such a large order. Service was kind and prompt. Definitely will try again, coworkers sushi looked great as well

Sunshine Roll (left), Spicy Lobster Roll (right)
Celena C.

Food was alright. Their sushi wasn't bad, but one of the rolls (the Spicy Lobster Roll) did have a lot of rice whilst the Sunshine Roll was fine. It was probably because it was made by two different sushi chefs behind the counter. My friend who ordered the fillet mignon hibachi plate said it was too salty and the beef too chewy. Service was fine. The waitress was nice, but she did seem a little indifferent, especially when answering menu-specific questions. We had a decent dinner, but wouldn't specifically recommend this place to anyone because the food and service were just average.

This was a restaurant I constantly walked by and was on my list of places to try. My friend and I decided to have an early dinner one day around 5PM. There was only 2 other parties so we were seated immediately. The overall look of the restaurant was very clean and quiet. We both ordered the hibachi dinner (I got the chicken and filet mignon combo and my friend got the filet mignon and lobster combo). We waited around 10 minutes before the chef came out to serve us. It was a standard hibachi experience. However, the food was not good at all. Every dish was completely drowned in sauce and was too salty to enjoy. There was no palette cleanser and we found ourselves constantly reaching for water. Both my friend and I had a difficult time finishing our food. Additionally, the meats were cooked first and by the time it arrived on our plate, it was overcooked. My friend's lobster was tough to eat and we both came to the verdict that the food was not good. Although we had a great laugh when the chef was tossing cucumber into our mouths, this is not a place we would return to again. We were disappointed considered how nice it looked from the outside.

Si X.

Overall: Wonderful restaurant with great food. If you're looking for a small gathering/event, highly recommend this place. Service: Excellent and friendly staff. Food: Some of the rolls are a little dry, but nothing I can't live with. Price: Great! Will I return: Absolutely will. This is going to be a regular place for us.

Scorpion bowl
Kendra C.

Came here on a Friday night for sushi. Didn't need reservations there was enough room where they have the kitchen section (apart from the hibachi stations). I ordered a dragon roll, Philadelphia roll, miso soup, and scorpion bowl. The scorpion bowl was pretty strong. Not too strong where it was undrinkable but enough to get you feeling it. I thoroughly enjoyed the miso soup and my 2 rolls. The 2 rolls were soft and felt like they melted in mouth. I would definitely come back here again

Takeout: Sushi Regular
Madison R.

Ordered takeout & really enjoyed getting my fix of sushi! I got the "Sushi Regular". It was made promptly & the people who work there are really nice. Will be going back in the future to try the big sushi boat!

Alaska roll, spicy tuna and salmon
Toni T.

This is one of my FAVORITE local Japanese restaurant I have eaten in or takeout in the pass but it's my 1st time returning since the Pandemic and was not disappointed as always Jessica is AMAZING and even though there was a gap she remembered right off. This time some friends of mine local and non local came to experience the atmosphere and was very very glad they did the food was great and Chef Jack was awesome he was a lot of fun...Prices are still good I had food there forgot my pic but did my take out food pic. I am glad they reopened after the fire We also met someone there Rosa who we have encountered several times

Seulkee H.

Nice fresh meat! Sake was just ok - not amazing. Staffs are not very kind as you may expect. The price for delivery on Yelp is different from the actual price (Yelp's price is higher). I live close from this restaurant so I will use it often.

First off Fin and Scale has moved and is now located on Chapel Street. Unfortunately the Yelp…read moreaddress had not been updated and we went to the old location. Luckily I went to their website and found out where their current location is (I also updated the business page so hopefully the new address shows) I had not been to the old location so I cannot speak to it but we were a bit confused when we arrived as there was no sign on the awing of the building. My friend had told me that new location was next to Ricotta Bakery so we went in to ask. We were told that we ordered there and the food would be brought to us next door. Of note you can also order from the Ricotta menu which has bakery and non sushi items We ordered and went to wait for our food which was sent out through a pass through for pick up. The space is large but the decor is very sparce . That being said the food was the star of the show. All of the rolls we order (and we ordered several) were fresh and tasty. We left with full bellies which we doesn't always happen when we go for sushi. So don't let the lack of signage and space decor deter you - it's a great place to visit.

The staff was so helpful and kind. The food looked as good as it tasted! I am not typically a miso soup fan and I couldn't get enough! A hearty broth with a tad of spice. The kani salad was amazing and I could have eaten it all day. The rolls were as delicious as they were beautiful. The chicken dishes were good, but the real star in my opinion was the sushi options. I will order more of that when I make a return trip. Definitely worth the visit!

Hachiroku Shokudo & Sake Bar is a real find. Good Japanese food is hard enough to track down, and…read morefinding it in New Haven feels like a huge victory. Prices run a bit high, but the quality of the ingredients more than make up for it. The Jako Salad (4.5/5) is a favorite of mine. It perfectly mixes peppery arugula and crisp radish with a poached egg, fried baby anchovy, bonito flakes, and nori. The baby anchovy gives a sweet/salty crunch that tastes like my childhood. Every bite swings between fresh and umami in a really creative way. The harasu don (5/5) is pure richness in a rice bowl. Grilled salmon belly and salmon roe together are incredibly rich, almost to the edge of too much, but the warm rice underneath keeps it grounded and turns it into a perfect comfort dish. The giant octopus sashimi (4/5) is a great counterbalance, cleanly sliced with a firm, fresh bite that lightens things up. The fresh tofu with uni (5/5) might be my favorite plate. The tofu is ultra delicate, and the rich uni on top adds a briny depth. With the simple seasonings on the side, it's a savory panna cotta. If they ever did a dessert version with ginger syrup, I would be here daily. Sashimi here is excellent (5/5). You get a balanced mix of fatty cuts like otoro and leaner ones like akami, along with hamachi, katsuo, and octopus. The variety lets you move between clean and rich bites at your own pace. A side note. Every so often a piece of yamamomo shows up on the plate (small red berries), a little mountain peach that is sweet enough to outshine most desserts. It may just be a palette cleanser, but it is a personal 10/5 for me. So good! Both indoor and outdoor seating feel comfortable, and service was on point: kind, attentive, and well timed. Overall, this is a standout Japanese option that I would highly recommend if you're ever in New Haven.

Hachiroku was a highly anticipated place after being nominated for Restaurant of the Year in New…read moreHaven County for Connecticut Restaurant Association's annual Crazies awards so I had it on my list of must go to restaurants. I have also never been to a sake bar. Have to say....I was underwhelmed. We came in last Friday and apparently it was slow because Yale was off (according to our waiter). If a restaurant is good they should not be slow on a Friday night. We sat by the door on a cold night and there were two other couples practically on top of us. Rest of the seating are high tops against a wall by the bar or up the stairs on another level. We would have liked to sit upstairs but they were closing off that area. Menu was complex as the restaurant is authentic Japanese. Lots of beef options. Lots of Wagyu. I was hoping to be blown away by this restaurant trying something different. I was struggling trying to find something to order that sounded appetizing. I knew going in that this place was authentic Japanese but I don't know, nothing sounded great to me. I love mushrooms so I got the Mixed Kinoko Mushroom appetizer which was $15. To add scallops was another $8. Mushrooms were tasty. Scallops were not. $23 for a small dish. I also got the pork short ribs. Not a ton of meat on them, however, nice flavor. I was still hungry after this so I ordered a dessert which was the best part of the meal. They get some of their desserts from Hen & Heifer which is a well established place in Guilford. I got the Ube Panna cotta. Boyfriend got the Black cod Yu-an Yaki and upgraded to add the salad, pickles and rice for $3 more. The pickles were maybe two bites. Salad tasty but again, very small. He said the cod was just ok too. Very small portions and pricey for what you get. $30 for a mini sake flight. Not impressed with how it was served either. Small tasting glasses just placed on the table with no description. The server explained which was which, but I didn't remember. Not sure if he didn't care or this is how it's normally served, but if you go to a wine bar/brewery, they provide descriptions with flights usually written underneath the glass, or at least serve it in something. Not just tiny glasses placed on a table where you have no idea what you're having. Especially for $30! I was not impressed with this place whatsoever. As this is part of a newer restaurant group with a few different locations nearby in New Haven, we then went to their cocktail Lounge on crown street (116 Cocktail Bar) thinking it might be better, however we were equally disappointed. It was dead in there and the bartenders were miserable. They couldn't wait to get out of there. I have heard that their hand roll bar is very good (Handroll on State St). We have been to their Grocery Store called The Loop and it's cute. They have a brunch at the Grocery/Kitchen location that looks really good. They also have a wine lounge at The Loop that I'd like to try.

Several of us arrived early (and we had added a person between the reservation to the dinner time) but the restaurant was able to accommodate us with no issues and we were seated immediately! Plenty of street parking too around that time nearby. The restaurant was not crowded at that time, and overall quiet enough to encourage normal volume conversation.

I have been DREAMING of getting a revolving sushi location close to me in CT. A few years ago I had…read moreto drive out to Boston to find one, but now it seems there's one right in New Haven. Chidori Revolving Sushi is a New Haven go-to for me. The premise is fun: you sit somewhere in the restaurant, that location has access to a conveyer belt system that is full of sushi at all times. You can grab any plate, usually containing 2 pieces of sushi, and once you're done, you're charged by putting the plate in a slot by your seat. The plates are colored based on price ($2.58 for blue plates, usually basic rolls like a philadelphia roll or spicy tuna roll, $3.79 for red plates, the most common type, which contain the specialty rolls, and then $5.79 for black plates, which are usually slices of fish over a piece of rice and much more fish-heavy). This format lets you try out a bunch of rolls, rather than committing to just 1 or 2. This is great if you're like me and get full a bit fast but love trying as many things as possible! There is also a tablet where you can order appetizers, full rolls, drinks, and more! I tried a number of rolls, with my favorite by far being the New Haven roll, which was fried and full of jalapeños and spicy tuna. I also loved the Steelers roll, with mango and salmon, and the angry roll, which was like a philadelphia roll with smoked salmon and kani on top! I had some of the mushroom soup, which was super dissimilar to the typical clear soup with mushroom broth and was instead very very strong on the mushroom. A super thick and oily broth, it was so rich and umami it was almost hard to finish, but super delicious!! I also had the pepper tuna appetizer, which was thicker and chewier than I'm used to, but the gimmick of this place is about the conveyer belt so I didn't expect complete perfection! Finally, I had the taiyaki dessert--a SHOWSTOPPER. Delicious and perfectly fried, the red bean is scrumptious inside and the ice cream is a great touch. After 10 plates are put into their little device, you get a small gacha toy which is a cute touch! I got a little Kuromi which was fun. Overall, I love this place. I recommend it a ton. My favorite appetizer the sexy jalapeño--a spicy tuna filled and fried jalapeño! Definitely swing by and give a bunch of different sushi pieces a try. The best time to hit it is when it's busy--I went at 8pm on a saturday and it seems they had just stopped putting more sushi out, since they close at 9. This meant the sushi slowly dwindled and I didn't get to try anything different from what I saw the first go-around. But it's still worth it!

Last year I traveled to Japan and had fun with this concept so I was excited to try this place…read more It's also a fun experience in NH but way overpriced for what you get. $2.79 is the lowest priced plate and that is always 2 slices of a roll. The plates range from $2.79-$6.79 each and it adds up quickly. For what we paid total we could have had a fine dining experience in New Haven. Fun to try.
