This is not an authentic omakase. It’s just a fancy course sushi catered towards white people with overpowering sauce/garnishes that do not highlight the pure flavor of the fish but hides it. Omakase is meant to be a personal experience between you and the chef, while you sit directly in front of the sushi chef eat what the chef decides to make for that day. This place only has 6 seats in front of the sushi table so everyone else is just served sushi by their servers. They also choose and stick with a sushi menu for 6 weeks - that is not omakase. Also, we were still hungry after having the “5 course” with 9 pieces of sushi total so we picked up mexican food on our way home. Lastly, it took 40 minutes to bring out the matcha creme brûlée. When it came out, the sugar coating was burnt and very thick. I took one bite and could not finish the rest. If you’ve never done an authentic Omakase before and want fancy, higher quality sushi, don’t care about price, you’ll like it. With paring or other drinks and tip, I don’t believe this is worth a $300 dinner.

Incredible quality fish and food. This is such a gem to be in Columbus. The only qualm is that the spacing between courses was a little too long- I understand wanting to enjoy and savor each course but we waited about 30 minutes in between each course making our total dining experience 2.5 hours for just 2 people. We were getting a little antsy by the end. Our server and the people were great though!!

This is a late post! Considering the change their menus every 5 weeks. Absolutely stunning presentation and service. The chef really outdoes it every time. While I haven’t tried the most recent menu I can say with certainty whatever you get will be amazing. Quality, creativity and authenticity is put into every plate served. It’s expensive but it’s worth every bit. Highly recommend pairing your courses with wine or sake additions.

Edit: So good we went back for seconds. New menu is exceptional! Haru offers a one of a kind experience right here in Columbus. The cocktails were incredible and the sushi was top tier. An intimate dining experience with next-level service and extraordinary conversation with the Chef’s themselves. This is an experience not to be missed.

Amazing food! The quality of ingredients was astounding, from the eel, king salmon to the bluefish, each course was thoughtfully prepared and always leaves you wanting more! We learned from the chef that they receive 2 shipments of fish a week and we can definitely taste the freshness in each roll. The service was also great, my girlfriend and I went for our anniversary and they treated us to free rosé. I also enjoyed how they give advice on how to approach each course and that definitely contributed to the experience overall. Will definitely be visiting again!
