Not sure why there is so many positive reviews this is my 4th time here in a year and a half and I can quite honestly say that only one visit was enjoyable, This place is really on its last leg they open and close like they have crowds lined up I have never had a bento box at a sushi restaurant but today I attempted to give it a try and it was horrible the meat looked like it was from the previous day the salmon was dry and the spicy tuna was good, but even on my previous visits when I ordered sushi only it was not the greatest they really need to sit down and figure out if they are in it to win it or if it’s time to hang up their boots because at this point it’s a restaurant that has ran it’s course and I can guarantee that is losing money by the day.. they need to revamp and reopen but don’t open till you have made the necessary changes because just being in there my experience was the vibe was kind of a downer

Hana Haru Japanese Restaurant in Azusa is fantastic! They serve delicious sushi and bento boxes at great prices. The spicy chicken bento is a must-try. The staff is super friendly and plenty of parking. Don’t miss their miso soup!”

After living in Asia for nearly 20 years, I know quality Japanese food, and trust me folks, this ain't it.

This slop isn't even on par with yoshinoya. Everything they serve is swimming in sauce or mayonnaise, and not even close to authentic.

Do yourself a favor and steer clear of this dive.

Fantastic place you have to go

We order a teriyaki beef plate (large) that cost 28 dollars. We thought that this would be enough for at least one adult. After paying taxes and delivery fees we paid 38 dollars total.We received the food and I swear is barely enough for a kid. The amount was so small is ridiculous, the meat was over cooked and did not receive the miso soup either.Never Again!! Is so upsetting, I don’t mind paying good money for good quality and good quantity. Look at picture

Amazing food and great service!

We went to have an early dinner with my wife, it was completely empty, It was our first time there and she didn’t feel comfortable because the kitchen is hidden ( not like the traditional sushi places) that you see how they prepare the food , especially sushi since it’s raw fish people should be more careful where to eat it , it was very expensive for the place plus my wife got very sick all night , I felt nauseated but not like my wife, the next morning she was feeling better but she called her doctor and he say it was food poisoning, my wife called the owner and he didn’t care at all ! We eat out a lot , especially sushi , I advise you not to go to this place, it’s not fresh and they just don’t care !!!
