Food was great. Decently priced for portions. The pickles on the black cod set were amazing. I don't know if it was just tonight but service is terrible. Our waitress, young black hair glasses, needs to be re-trained. She knew almost nothing about the menu. Couldn't answer our questions about sake, beer or make food recommendations. And for the duration of the meal we watched her meander around even though the staff was busy and there were things she could have been doing to help....read full review
Amazing food and love the flavors and authentic culture, the staff are always kind and accommodating! And the drinks are great. But it’s worth mentioning , it is very expensive with small portions. Drinks are expensive…$20 a glass wines and $10 beers. Over $200 when me and my husband go and we are not indulging.
Easily the best salmon I had in New Haven. The presentation is excellent & the entrees are well-cooked. You can tell that the menu is thoughtfully and stylishly designed. Definitely very expensive, but in my opinion worth it. Definitely better than Miso, Chidori Revolving Sushi, and the other Japanese restaurants.

Hachiroku Shokudo & Sake Bar is a highly regarded restaurant that offers an exceptional dining experience. Known for its fresh and flavorful dishes, Hachiroku is a must-visit for sashimi and wagyu beef curry enthusiasts. The restaurant provides a unique Omakase-style experience, where every dish is carefully prepared and presented, with edible florals and garnishes. The menu features delicious entrees such as black cod, unagi, uni, and ikura, along with a flavorful curry with wagyu beef. The braised pork belly is especially popular, praised for its tenderness that falls apart with chopsticks, and diners often enjoy the rich sauce even after finishing the dish.
The sake collection is impressive, including a $35 sake flight with four mid-tier options, perfect for pairing with the traditional Japanese cuisine. Customers also appreciate the wide variety of sake and the friendly, knowledgeable service. The restaurant’s offerings are more focused on authentic Japanese flavors and small plates rather than traditional sushi.
Despite being known for its creative small plates, Hachiroku remains a favorite for many in New Haven, with loyal customers eagerly awaiting its move to a new location. The restaurant also features a selection of wines from Ungrafted, adding to its diverse beverage options. Diners are encouraged to follow updates on Instagram to stay informed about the reopening and new offerings.
