Hama Sushi Reviews
Good sushi
The best local sushi spot in Venice. I love the indoor/outdoor vibe — it’s perfect to watch a game (they have huge screens). The fish is always fresh and the bamboo sake is alway cold. They also have amazing mochi, ask for the mochi tower.
As someone who’s lived in MDR/Venice their whole life, Hama is a landmark and always provides the highest quality, best service.

Hama Sushi is a long-standing spot known for offering solid sushi with fresh, tasty options like hand-rolled spicy tuna. It has unique rolls that are always fresh, ensuring that guests don't have a bad bite. The restaurant features a hidden patio for private events and has lots of ambiance, making it suitable for dining solo, date nights, or large groups. While some menu changes have been hit or miss, including a new ramen bowl, it has become a popular choice among sushi lovers.
The owner, Esther, is the heart of the restaurant, personally greeting each guest while overseeing the entire dining experience. Hama Sushi sources fresh fish from the harbor daily and provides fast service, making it a great place for beginners looking to explore the world of sushi. On nice days, the outdoor seating can get packed, but guests can settle in, share a bottle of sake, and enjoy their time. The overall experience is highly recommended, especially for special occasions, with standout items like the Baby Blue roll and the house sake served in a bamboo container.
