Restaurant Hama Sushi Review

Missed the mark. Didnt follow their menu...tasted fine, nothing special.

Really great sushi and very friendly staff. I'll be making a point to come here again the next time I'm in LA.

Love how there are two sections to this place, a bright indoor patio area to the right. A classic, dim-lit sushi bar to the left. Truly feels like Japan meets Venice Beach and the best of both worlds can be found here.

Decently priced considering the location. Sushi rolls range from $8-$25 depending on the fish choice. An avocado roll is like $6. I got a sashimi salad, which came loaded with fresh fish. Light and filling, cost $25 after tip and tax.

They have gluten free soy sauce and you can substitute upon request. My friend has a sesame allergy and another friend was gluten sensitive. They subbed the tempura for an extra piece of sashimi in the bento box, which was very kind.

The owner actually came by to ask how we were and to thank us for our visit.

Best atmosphere in Venice. Sit outside under tent and watch surf vids. Good food friendly service amazing atmosphere.

40th Anniversary party was great. Same great food as when I first came in 1981. Keep it going.

Great location. Sushi was excellent. Service was friendly but a bit on the slow end. As long as you re not in a hurry, you should definitely eat here.

Fun, easy going Japanese food place. The original sushi place on LA/Venice. Food delicious and not to pricey. Would return.

Really tasty food with great happy hour specials! The Ramen is fantastic

Awesome atmosphere. The service and food were great!

Was expecting pretty mediocre sushi here but it was quite good considering the price! I don't believe it's related to the Hama in little Tokyo and doesn't feel like it is either, lots of speciality rolls and non sushi items, all were pretty good. Get the shishto peppers, Karage and a couple of rolls and you'll be good to go.

The waiter was very friendly and always smiling, and he made great recommendations. The food was yummy, the seating was crowded though. Overall a good time. Great desserts for sharing.

I used to live across the street from Hama back in the 80's and have been a loyal customer from the start. Long live Hama Sushi!.

Consistently outstanding, gracious service and delicious food. They have well adapted to Coronavirus guidelines for safety.

Sensational and funny chef who satisfied every single request of sushi and sashimi, great service, a must!

Great local joint where locals frequent. Fresh seafood, great team, 100% recommend!

I went to this restaurant last night and it was the worst thing ever! The host and servers were great but when our food came out everything went downhill. I ordered the lobster miso soup which was okay but the sushi was so dry and bland that it was hard to swallow without using water to assist. The teryaki beef was DISGUSTING and looked old and the rice that came with it was also so dry that i could not swallow it. Even the soy sauce that they used was disgusting and cheap tasting, I would never recommend this to anyone!! My friend wasted $67.71!!!

It's my neighborhood spot but it's not a bias rating. Good fish here and creative offerings.

It s definitely lost some of its quality over the years but still suffices

Best sushi in L.A, great atmosphere, kind servers, traditional, excellent valet service.
Good experience in Venice.
