Hama Sushi — Restaurant in Chatan

Not to be confused with the Conveyor Belt Chain of the same name, Hama Sushi is an excellent, high quality experience that is a joy to participate in. The food here is made fresh to order by the chef, and everything is of very high quality! What I found to be most pleasantly surprising was that the prices for the fish were not that much more expensive than at the Conveyor belt chains, but the quality was far higher and was just as quick.

Their set menus offer quite a bit of different items to pair with the Sushi, and all of it was absolutely delicious. The soups were very flavorful and were light as well, and the tempura was the nice, light crispy texture that accentuates the food without overpowering it. It was a marvelous spread, and quite an enjoyable meal all together! For those of you who like rolls, the sushi rolls were very large and hefty, and were quite delicious and filling overall.

The staff was very friendly and very accomodating for our larger group that we brought. The store can fit 2 people at the front bar, but has 3-4 large seating tables in the Tatami Room floors to enjoy together. They have English Menus as well! Credit Card Accepted.

Definitely recommend coming here and...

Discovered a family owned restaurant since 1975 on Google Maps searching for Sushi, read great reviews, took Uber there, and felt at home from the moment we walked into their traditional tatami mat seating.

Vegetable Tempura as an appetizer, delicious miso soup, rice, yellowtail collar bone called Hamachikama that was the most delicious I've tasted, and Rainbow Sushi Roll.

After thoroughly enjoying our dinner, I talked with the crew using Google Translate to share stories of memories in Japan.

The menu is tattered because it has obviously been used for years with very reasonable pricing. We had a wonderful dinner at Hama Sushi or in Japanese, Hamazushi.

This is a restaurant I highly recommend if you want to enjoy a traditional Japanese dinner at...

I wanted Sushi for lunch and found Hama Sushi on Google maps. 4.5* reviews, open, what's there to lose?

I think Hama Sushi is a little hidden gem in Okinawa. Talking to the chef (with help from Google Translate) I learned that Hama Sushi has been open since 1975, or about 47 years at the time of this review.

6 pieces of sushi of my choice, tuna roll, and soba ran me 980 yen. I loved the sushi, the chef and his staff (one waitress) were very friendly and helpful. I'll be back next time I'm there.

Edit: I read through some of the older reviews and some of them mention that it's cash (yen) only.. they must have upgraded because both my friend and I...
