What a find in Basel! Think of this as Japanese fusion. The staff was really nice and friendly, and…read morethe food was great. I ordered the tuna tataki and the surf and turf, and everything came out great. They have a small conveyor belt sushi on one end of the restaurant and a teppanyaki table on the other. The setup is really nice - sit at the teppanyaki if there are seats available and watch your food being cooked. The portions are generous. The tuna was seared nicely and the sauce was delicious. The surf and turf came with shrimp which had an amazing butter sauce. And the filet was perfectly cooked to medium raw - so tender. Presentation of the food was also nicely done.

We are visiting Basel from Hawaii after the Viking River Cruise and we were craving good sushi,…read moretempura and a bowl of rice. We were lucky to find HATTORI SUSHI AND STEAKHOUSE right next to our hotel(Radisson BLU Hotel). We were greeted by the owner Nick who made us feel very welcome. The decor of the restaurant had an Asian flair and an ambience that was very comfortable. The restaurant had a moving sushi bar with an array of choices and Teppanyaki U shape counter. Hattori opened 5 Months ago. To start we had the Shrimp and Vegetable Tempura and Ahi Tuna Tataki with a Kirin Premium beer. The Tempura was light and crispy with a flavorful dipping sauce. The Tuna Tataki was seared to perfection with the right amount of seasoning and topped with daikon/sauce. The Steak was done medium rare with a variety of sautéed mushrooms including shiitake. It was plated with a nice delicate sauce with cubed gelatin flavored with shiitake mushroom dashi, mirin, shoyu and sake. Chef Alek served us his soft and tasty Homemade bread with a marinated broccoli spread. Executive Chef Alek's creations are so tasty. We ended the dinner with shot of Yamasaki Whiskey which won a world title as best in class and Sweet Umeshu. It was an excellent meal and we felt at home with the friendly staff and owner. We highly recommend Hattori Sushi/Steakhouse and hope you all will check it out. Your taste buds will be treated to an awesome epicurean experience!

Hands down the worst ramen of my life! I ordered the veggie ramen and didn't like the flavor at…read moreall, asked to change it for what my colleague was eating, it tasted a little better. We were three of us during dinner at the Messeplatz location. All of us got food poisoning that night. Needless to say they made me pay for the extra ramen. The ambience was so steamy, hot and the service started well, but ended in a disaster. They didn't care for the customer at all. Would NOT recommend. It has nothing to do with authentic ramen...should have known considering they have way too many options and none of them are good. Convenience is not always convenient.

The good: very nice staff, friendly and quick service. (I added one star back for this)…read more Not so good: the ramen. The broth's not properly rich or flavorful. The waitress didn't know if the broth is pork or beef based. The egg's not prepared the way Ajitama are supposed to be. The chashu didn't taste like chashu. Grossly overpriced for what you're paying, even by Swiss standards. I've had ramen from all over - mostly in the U.S., and this was one of the most expensive yet also most disappointing bowls of ramen I've had to date. I hope the restaurant strives to deliver a more authentic and better quality bowl of ramen in the future, adhering and paying homage to the Japanese tradition.

Great spot for hot lunch food during the day. Daily menu Monday to Friday which changes each month.read more

And although the menu has a broad range of options, the stars stop here because the food quality, texture and temperature are low institutional at best. Their info page states: "...Hohe Qualität unser Versprechen. Ihre Zufriedenheit unser Ziel." (...Quality is our promise. Your satisfaction is our goal.) However, after the initial welcome and seating it feels heartless, questions about the food are met with a dismissive frustration and delivery is done without a hint of pride. So namamen Ramen Messe fails on their fundamental mission statement. Certainly not a place for ramen and gyoza afficionados. There are many Japanese in Basel but rarely have I seen one enjoying ramen or gyoza at this namamen.

I was already sweating walking into the restaurant but it got worse once inside. But since I miss any Asian foods during vacation, I continued on for the bowl of noodles. Had the nature noodle.
