Pretty disappointed, we were told our table would be ready soon/ in a few minutes and we ended up waiting 1h30 for a table of 3. (On a Monday) Multiple groups of two were served before us even tho they arrived after us. The food ended up being pretty average, and I was expecting better given how nice the atmosphere was. Honestly would not come back

Great quality at reasonable prices. One of the best softshell crab rolls I've had in recent memory. I'll come here again. There's often a wait and groups of 3 or more need to get on the list early.

Best sushi I’ve ever had in my life. This place was life changing and left me speechless with every bite. Every penny was so worth it and I will definitely be coming back. The atmosphere, service, and food all felt very authentic.

OMGGGGGGGGGG! What service, FLAVOR, and quality.
It was hands down a mind blowing experience. Thank you to everyone at Hama that delivered excellence!

An excellent and authentic experience for sushi in the style you would see in Japan. Signs at the entrance set expectations (no teriyaki, no tempura, no noodles) to avoid disappointment from people looking for a more standard Americanized Japanese dining experience. No spicy mayonnaise, sweet eel sauce basted rolls here (though those do have their moment elsewhere in Little Tokyo). Nigirizushi and sashimi dominate the menu with mostly bar seating. 3-4 sushi chefs manage sections of the bar and will freshly prepare sushi from breaking down the fish to putting it on your platter. Ambiance and service are to Japanese tastes. The waitlist is based around having a name on a written list and waiting for your name to be called. No electronic contact or list monitoring. Arrive at opening or be prepared to wait. Prices are standard for this quality of sushi which is to say that the meal will be a special occasion.

I love the atmosphere here. It was like sitting in a cozy sushi bar in Tokyo. However the sushi taste is not my favorite. Scallop was too cold to be served. Sea urchin tasted creamy but the seaweed overwhelmed the flavor. Sweet shrimp was ok. If you like ankimo you have to ask, it is not in the menu but they have it.

My #1 go to sushi place. Hands down.
Unless I feel like just filling myself with sushi, if I want legit sushi, this is the place. Never disappointed. Chefs are so kind and vibe inside is so amazing

You might have to wait hr or two, but it is definitely worth the wait
Their Mackerel is my favorite too.

They have small menu but have exactly what I need.

Always thank you guys, and will support this place 100%
Please dont change!!

This is the best sushi in this side of town, fair warning they do not do any California rolls or novelty rolls, always a great time and great food.

Eating- only sushi meaning no fancy creations however delicious!Atmosphere is a whole lot of people enjoying dinner; sometimes small talk with person seated next to you and with Sushi Chefs.

5시 영업개시 직후에 입장하였습니다.
어머니와 언니는 이미 식사를 마쳤으나 저혼자만 배가 고파 구글에서 찾은 하마스시를 방문하게 되었어요.
간단하게 메뉴를 고른뒤 종업원에게 요청했지만 예쁜 눈을 소유한 그년는 “한사람만 식사할수없어요. 1명당 20불의 가격을 지불해야합니다” 라고 말했고 우리는 안타깝게도 퇴장하기로 결정했어요.

그 뒤에 종업원의 태도는 스시를 자르는 칼처럼 날카로웠고 매우 화가난듯했습니다. 난 입장할때 ‘분위기 좋다. 기대된다’ 라고 생각했지만 그 종업원의 불쾌한 태도때문에 ‘하마스시에서 식사하지 않길 잘했다’ 라고 생각하게되었습니다.

Food is excellent. The sushi was prepared in ways that are a little more special than elsewhere. Fish and seafood quality is good. On the pricey side.

When you are in need of real authentic Japanese food, here's the spot. The sushi is very fresh, well prepared, and served in true form Japanese settings. They serve well, I could have totally shared my bento box and still be full and happily satisfied. Sake or a Sapporo helped round the meal. Mmmm!

Unbeatable quality sushi.
Good “bang for your buck” sushi!—quote from my friend.
We love everything here.

Amazingly friendly and accommodating sushi chef whom you place all orders with, starting with the first order slip. Further orders can be placed with him as well, he does his best to meet all requests and is nothing like the other snotty big ego chefs, even at the same price point.

Amazing sweet shrimp (GET THE SOUP FOR THE HEADS), uni, scallops, toro. If I could do over, I would get 10 sweet shrimp sushi and drink 2 bowls of the soup and call it a day. The long walk in wait is worth it.

No frills food that you can feel most of your $$ is going towards fresh ingredients instead of plating gimmicks or ambience or service stuff I don’t care about. 100/100 recommend, so glad we went.

Like a real small restaurant in Japan, with tasty food and friendly atmosphere.
You cannot book a table in here, and there is always a line in the evening, so make sure to come here earlier to enjoy the dinner.

Very small but delicious spot to eat at, highly suggest coming here if you love sushi. Everything is very authentic and the food is to die for, don’t expect much ambiance or decor, just go here for the amazing fresh sushi, you won’t be disappointed.

We waited an hour to be seated, it’s popular and like I said, small. Went across the street and got a drink then when we returned we were seated. WORTH THE WAIT.
