I thought the table set up is way too cramped inside. And take out portion has substantially reduced. Otherwise still a decent neighborhood option.

I ordered from Uber Eats and it was disappointing. At all cost.
It was a buy 1 get 1 free deal and I only got 1 roll and my friend could not eat with me. Extremely disappointed.
Even though the taste was good the service was a bit disappointing. Not worth 20 bucks.

Finally got to try Hachibei! I was in time for their lunch menu and I knew I had to try their signature Hachibei Chicken Karaage. It was so good! No wonder they take pride in their karaage. It was really juicy! The whole place was a bit small but cozy. I honestly like the interior of Hachibei. Staff were friendly and accommodating! Will definitelt be back to try their other selections!

4 Stars for the good food. 1 star for the poor service. One of the waitresses came across as quite rude. I understand the restaurant was very busy and that many guests were waiting, but we felt rushed and were repeatedly given signals to leave before we had finished our meal. As we had a reservation, we would have appreciated a greeting upon arrival and a brief explanation if the table was not ready, rather than being left waiting for a long time. Many Japanese restaurants are known for their polite and attentive service, but this experience was far from that expectation.

I went to Hachibei for dinner one evening, and it was a great experience. The restaurant feels warm and welcoming from the moment you walk in. It has a relaxed vibe that works well whether you’re with friends or on a quiet date night.
I ordered a few dishes including sushi and some grilled items. Everything tasted fresh and well prepared. The sushi was smooth and flavorful, and the grilled dishes had good seasoning and texture. There was a clear sense that care went into how each item was cooked.

Really good food. Staff are very helpful sushi is fresh. Chicken teriyaki is very yummy. Nice convenient location
Hachibei has quickly become my favourite Japanese restaurant in the neighbourhood. The food is absolutely delicious. The chefs here clearly have a passion for detail and presentation as much as they do for making absolutely delightful meals! Highly recommend the Hachibei ton katsu dinner. For $22 it’s easily enough to feed two people and you get a mixture of pork and fish katsu with assorted side dishes. The salmon oshi is the best I’ve tried. Miku who? This is so much better! HIGHLY recommend making a reso. This place fills up fast and it’s teeny tiny!

My family and I were initially delighted to find this Japanese restaurant. We have been reguarly. Unfortunately, our last two visits were incredibly disappointing. On the first occasion, I found a fake press-on nail in the potato salad, which was extremely unhygienic. No one handling food should be wearing artificial nails without proper gloves, and it made us question the kitchen’s sanitation and food safety. Even after that incident, we decided to give the restaurant another chance. On our second visit, my dad bit into a piece of ceramic in his rice, which we realized most likely came from the the bowl which was chipped. This was particularly concerning, as it could have caused injury. Although we informed the staff both times, we were only offered 10% off the affected meals. We don't think customers should be expected to pay for meals containing foreign objects, especially when safety is involved. More concerning, however, was that these issues were not properly addressed by the staff or management, and we did not feel the situation was taken seriously or met with an appropriate level of urgency/concern or apology. Given that we genuinely wanted to give this place another chance, this experience was extremely disappointing.
