Hamamori Restaurant and Sushi Bar

Had an anniversary dinner with my wife. Omakase was as good as the omakase I had in Tokyo, Japan. Great service. Will come back for more for sure!

Food is amazing and love Hamasan! Fresh from Japan and unique flavors… you must try from the gems to get the best flavors in my opinion. Or get omakase if you want a special experience where he creates sushi paired with different flavors that you can’t order just off the menu since he makes it special for you with a unique twist to each person. They have draft beer and cocktails and sake that you can also enjoy with friends when dining here.

It was my first time visiting the mall (and the state!), and needless to say, I was 1000% satisfied with my choice to eat here.

The food was great. I ordered the VIP sushi, and all of the sushi are very, very fresh. The hamamori shooter was interesting. The pork belly was amazing. It was my favorite, like, I literally closed my eyes to absorb the taste when I ate it because it was that good.

Besides the food, the most memorable thing I experienced while eating here was the service. The server recommended pork belly to me, but I was afraid I couldn't finish it because I came here alone. Then she said that she could cut it in half, as in, there should be 6 pork bellies, but she could serve just 3 for half the price. I really appreciated that. And as I said before, the pork belly was, indeed, amazing.

I was seated in the high table part, in front of the chef, so I could see them preparing the sushi. The chefs were so nice. They prepared the food and served them directly to me. I had some nice chat with one of the older chefs. He also made sure that I enjoyed the dishes and hinted the waiters to take my plates once I finished.

Overall, it was such a wholesome dining experience. Eating alone in a new place is scary and intimidating sometimes, but here, they treated me very well and made sure that I got the best food and service

TL;DR: Amazing food, amazing service, much recommended ?

This restaurant is my recent favorite in OC area. Haven’t tried the omakase yet but tried most sashimi pieces and a few other item on the menu. Every piece is yummy and melting as you put it in your mouth. The service is a little bit slow but believe me it worth the wait.
