🍣 Haru Omakase – Polaris Columbus

Located just a 5-minute drive from Polaris, this intimate omakase spot offers a refined and well-paced experience. With seating for around 13 guests and a team of 8 staff, the service is attentive and smooth. The $89 per person omakase menu takes about an hour — perfectly timed. You can also add uni, wagyu, or a drink pairing. The meal starts with a warm towel, setting a thoughtful tone. 🍵 Drinks & Starters ❤️ Usucha (Japanese Matcha) – $6 Rich and smooth — not bitter at all. 🍶 First Tour Amberjack A delicate white fish with a slightly tangy sauce. Tender, bouncy texture with a clean, sweet finish. 🍣 Second Tour (Eat from Right to Left) ❤️ Scallop Lightly torched and beautifully presented — tender, layered, and one of the best scallop sushi bites I’ve had. ❤️ Striped Bass Topped with yuzu miso — a mild, refreshing flavor. ❤️ Flounder Served with salmon roe — starts salty, then unfolds with a delicate, buttery finish. 🐟 Third Tour Spanish Mackerel A bit fishy in flavor. Golden Eye Snapper Firm and gelatinous texture — an adventurous sour-spicy note from lemon and yuzu. King Salmon Rich and buttery, though the caviar on top was subtle. 🔥 Fourth Tour Yellowtail Hand Roll Fresh and crisp, though the jalapeño slightly overpowered the fish. ❤️❤️ Bluefin Tuna My favorite of the night — tender, fatty, and simply seasoned. (Though my friend’s piece was a bit tough.) ❤️ Eel (Unagi) Smoky, soft, and boneless — topped with crispy rice puffs. Would’ve been even better warm! 🍮 Fifth Tour Matcha Crème Brûlée A large portion with perfect caramelization — creamy and not too sweet. The matcha flavor was subtle, and the powdered topping looked a bit odd under the light. 📍 Address: 2027 Polaris Pkwy, Columbus, OH 43240 🚗 Parking: Plenty of spots available 🕔 Hours: 5:00 PM – 10:00 PM | Closed Sundays 📞 Reservations: Recommended #HaruOmakase #ColumbusSushi #OmakaseExperience #PolarisEats #FineDining #ColumbusFoodie #JapaneseCuisine #EdibleArt 🌸🍶
