Outstanding!!!! I love love love this place! The atmosphere is so cozy and relaxing. The food is DELICIOUS! The service is attentive. I wish I could give extra stars! This is my new favorite spot. We had the crunch tuna roll, yaki gyoza, shisito pepper, potato korroke, spicy tuna hand roll and red crab hand roll and they were all SO GOOD! Can’t say enough good things about this place.
I drove by this unassuming restaurant as I left Costco and thought Id give it a try. I was glad I did. The place was packed which in my opinion was a good sign. There werent any tables so I sat at the sushi counter to place my order. I ordered A5 Wagyu Sashimi, King Salmon Sashimi, and the Suntory Roll which my waitress said was their most popular. As I waited for my order I had the opportunity to watch the sushi chefs prepare an arrangement of dishes. Each order was beautifully prepared works of art. When my order was served I was very pleased. The A5 and Salmon melted in my mouth. The Salmon was fresh and topped with grated lemon grass that added a delicious touch. The final selection of Suntory roll was savory, spicy, and acidic. This place is an absolute gem. A bit pricey but absolutely worth it. I went yesterday and am considering going tonight.
I so wanted to give this 5 stars because the meal started great! Chicken Karaage was wonderful as was the seafood udon - I started eating the mackerel which tasted great but when I got to midpoint it was cold and raw - the waiter said he would take it off and asked if they could make another one - yes please but oh, 15 minutes - I just asked for more chicken karaage because it would be fast. When we got the bill, I got charged for the 2nd karaage which I ate but the only reason I didn’t get the second mackerel was because of how long it was going to take. The seaweed salad came when we were almost done with the meal. Anyway, when I asked if he wasn’t comping the meal - he took it off and got a 30% tip on the original amount - though I really thought I shouldn’t have had to ask. But the raw food and the fact that only two waiters were running around with slow service, led to this rating. With all the good reviews, I am going to assume it was one off and maybe give it another chance.
Hanakin in Plano is a sleeper! Such great bites all around and a daily Happy Hour from 8pm - close. 🍻 Notable favorites of mine: the medaiko creamy udon, brussel sprouts, madai carpaccio & monthly special handroll
Probably my favorite sushi place in DFW. Absolutely love the salmon sushi here. The other food is delicious too. The place is small and cozy and the staff is all super friendly. The food comes out pretty quick too! The nigiri/sushi feels a little pricey but well worth it.
