Hanamaru Japanese Sushi & Kaiseki Restaurant

I love this place!!

This restaurant has such great dishes. My husband grew up in Japan and he loved this place. We love the food and the service.

As someone who has lived in Asia for about half my life, this is easily the best Japanese food in Utah.

Best Japanese food in Utah hands down. Amazing chefs. Only place youre going to find their equal is in Japan.

Food is absolutely wonderful. The couple that owns the place does a phenomenal job.

Not your typical sushi joint, but by far the best sushi and tempura in Utah ?

I went here with some friends and we all loved it. Everything was perfect from the beginning to the end. Great atmosphere, great service, and delicious food. Can’t wait to come again and try some more dishes!

If you have to choose between traveling the world or eating here before you die, the correct thing to do would be to eat here.

Be sure to make a reservation. We saw a few groups get turned away because they didn't have a reservation. The food was great! We loved everything about this spot.

No other words except it’s an amazing hidden gem that I always go back to. I’ve never had anything from here that I did not like.

We always make a reservation in advance, and put in our orders for large groups, which works flawlessly.

They don't serve any alcohol. So if you like saki with your sushi it's not happening here. You have to have a reservation so we were thinking we wouldn't be able to go but we called and made a reservation for like 10 minutes later which was cool. My husband got sushi and said it was pretty good not happy sumo good but still good. I got wheat noodles and tempura shrimp and veggies. The shrimp and veggies were super yummy but I wasn't a fan of the soup. The price was reasonable and the service was really good.

Before you read or go there for a visit. I have to tell you that this restaurant only accepts reservations. I highly suggest you to visit their website and check their menu and schedule since some food is only provided on specific days. The owners of this restaurant is an old lady and her partner, they are the only 2 cooks & waiter you’ll meet so stop complaining about the service and show some respect. The food, especially ramen, are the best I’ve ever had since I’ve come to Utah, almost the same with the one I had in Japan. The ramen itself is Kansai style, you’ll never regret to come here and have a try. It seems they only have ramen day on Saturday so make sure you check the schedule!

Small business, but it's really good sushi. I love it fresh noodles and broth flavorful. Drove an hour for food, but it was good. Calamari was okay, not worth the price. The place was clean, but the bathrooms dusty. If big fans of sushi, yes, go there authentic Japanese sushi.

Literally a mom and pop shop, they're the only two working. The dining area is a small space with six tables. For that reason you need a reservation. The sushi was excellent. The udon noodle soup and tonkotsu curry was also very good. The potstickers were good, but the calamari was just okay. The tonkotsu( tempura fried pork cutlets) dinner was okay but not my favorite. Service is minimal. They bring you water and bring out your food and that's all. You bus your own empty dishes to a rack in the corner. I will definitely be back for more of their delicious sushi.
