5/5 Szeto C. 5 years ago on Google
We
went
there
for
dinner
tonight
because
I
wanted
high
class
sushi
for
my
Christmas
gift.
Made
the
reservation
a
week
ago
and
were
there
on
time.
I
didn't
notice
there
was
an
authentic
Japanese
sushi
restaurant
in
Orinda
even
I
passed
by
there
many
times.
From
my
experience,
good
restaurants
are
always
hidden
somewhere.
The
restaurant
was
incredibly
clean,
neat
and
cozy,
it
makes
you
comfortable.
The
chef
greeted
us
and
then
started
to
prepare
the
12-piece
sushi
omasake
menu.
The
sushis
were
all
fresh,
delicious,
authentic
and
devine!
After
the
12
piece
sushi
from
the
omasake
menu,
we
ordered
8
more
pieces.
Each
of
us
had
altogether
3
pieces
of
uni
sushis,
3
pieces
of
fluke
fish
sushi
and
2
pieces
of
pike
fish
sushi.
As
someone
who
have
been
to
Japan
7
times
and
have
always
had
the
finest
sushi
in
Hongkong,
I
can
tell
Hanazen
is
one
of
the
best
in
the
East
Bay.
My
taste
buds
were
pampered
and
satisfied.
Last
but
not
least,
I
will
recommend
the
sampler
sake
meun
which
comes
with
3
different
types
of
Japanese
sake.
The
sake
was
presented
nicely
in
3
delicate
glasses.
I'm
looking
forward
to
dine
at
Hanazen
once
again!
*Won't
leave
this

Yelp

Yelp

Yelp
does
not
deserve
a
