Hanaki Sushi

It's been nearly 10 years since I was last here. My friend and I were in the area and decided to put down some sushi. It's small, but intimate and for a Tuesday evening getting a table was not an issue. The service was great. The food was great. The seafood was fresh, and we were excited for the whole grilled squid. Not too many places have a whole squid around here. We went kind of crazy and got the love boat to share and some extra rolls on the side. The server was very attentive and even gave use a free dessert at the end of our meal! So nice! Will definitely come back again sooner then 10 years -Promise.

Great sushi with very friendly, attentive staff! We have tried several of their rolls and never been disappointed. Their seafood soup is the best we have ever tried! Cute,clean store!

I really gotta bump up my rating of Hanaki to a 5 star! Since we've moved to the area, it's become our go-to place for sushi since it's so close. It's not just the convenience that keeps us going back though. I am super impressed with how they are consistent through and through, whether we have dined in or made an order for takeout. The staff and sushi chefs are always nice and kind, very attentive and very prompt with all requests. They are always nice to our kids and bring the "kiddie" chopsticks for our youngest (still in training LOL).For the food, everything is always prepared with care and always fresh. My faves on the menu are yellowtail jalapeno, Hanaki platter, Sushi Deluxe, it just really depends what I am in the mood for. Their hot kitchen items are always great too. We've had everything from chicken, to beef, to shrimp and salmon. Most meals come with soup, salad and rice so the meals are always filling!It's a small restaurant, so we usually eat at the bar, but most of the time, we take it to go! So glad to have them so close!Stay safe, Friends!

This is the best sushi my wife and I have found in all of Hampton Roads. The fish is fresh and delicious. Service is fast. We're so glad this place is close as it's been our favorite sushi date spot.

On the recommendation of a friend who goes here regularly...YUM! We all had cucumber salad...super fresh and super huge portion. Definitely enough to split! Yellowtail Tartare was not what I expected but absolutely delightful. We also had the Hallloween roll, the Fire Dragon Roll and the seared tuna dinner. All were wonderful. Having eaten sushi all over the country in my travels, this place was definitely one of the best, and very reasonably priced as well. It doesn't look like much from the outside but beautiful and cozy on the inside. Hope to be back in the area!

I ran through every 4-letter word in the book when Ang's Sushi in Greenbrier changed hands and went to AYCE. They were the highest quality, best service, top notch sushi bar in the area. We have looked for probably 2 years now for a good replacement sushi joint. Hanaki, so far, is a top runner. At the recommendation of friends, we used a recent date night to check out Hanaki. It is located in a strip shopping center near Harris Teeter next to a pilates studio. The sign is small and nondescript, so you'll miss it if you aren't looking carefully. We were seated at a table next to a boisterous couple and were able to move to another table near the doors. I will say the seating is a bit cramped given the layout. The tables flanking the entryway don't have much room so you will be able to hear every conversation next to you. I'd recommend they space things out, but I can see why so many tables - they were all full. We've been twice in 2 weeks and favorites so far were the Triple Fancy Maki (a great value which comes with miso soup and salad), Hanbury and Boston Rolls. Our daughter loved the chicken teriyaki and shrimp skewers. The Shumai was a slight disappointment as it was not hot when it arrived. The Blue Hawaiian was good, but needed a slightly thicker slice of mango and kiwi as neither had much flavor to bring to the party. Ang's Volcano roll still hasn't been bested - the one at Hanaki seemed slightly overfried.Hubby enjoyed a hot saki on our recent visit and I liked the Riesling. Service was good on both visits and, when busy, they definitely tag-team tables to make sure you have everything you need. Overall, two very good experiences and we are sure to return!

Fist time here as we are always searching for new options. Had the lovers boat and the sushi was good but I've had better lovers boat options in the past that came with more roll options. Service was good.

I judge all sushi establishments off of their Philly rolls 8/10 will eat here again. The service could use some work but not bad. Food is good and fresh always.

This is my go to place for sushi! The staff are super friendly and the food comes out so fast. Great place for a date or a family meal. Some of our favorite items are the Fire Dragon roll, Treasury Roll, Squid salad, Peppered Tuna, Seafood Carpaccio, New Style Red Snapper and the Spicy Tuna bun.

I loved the menu options, sushi portions, and the service. We ordered 5 rolls and 2 appetizers, they were all on our table within 10 minutes of ordering. Presentation and taste were spot on. I hope to come back!
