Hanmoto is a fusion restaurant on Lakeview specializing in mixing Japanese and western flavours. Hanmoto looks like a small dive bar with its bare brick walls. The set up invokes the street food vibes of Southeast Asia where you order food at a small food stall and eat the food on the curb, standing or squatting on a small table. This is quite fitting seeing as Hanmoto is serving a lot of "street food".
I would recommend visiting Hanmoto with a group of friends so you can sample a few plates. One of the standout plate is the Dyno wings which is Hanmoto's signature dish. The Dyno wings are deboned chicken wings stuffed with ground pork and bacon then deep fried to a crisp. The Dyno wings are served in a cute Chinese take-out box with Kewpie mayo drizzled over top along with nori, cilantro and hot peppers. Other plates that I would recommend include the katsu bun and hamachi tartare.
I would recommend paying Hanmoto a visit if you want to visit a fusion restaurant that's unique and out of the ordinary.
