| - Went to Hashi Sushi yesterday (Mothers Day, May 14, 2017) with family and friends. The reason we chose this restaurant was from the positive Yelp reviews, my wife loves ramen, whereas I like sushi. We both get to order what we want.
Wifey had: R1 Tonkotsu Ramen ($14). We were expecting the gooey yolk egg that comes with traditional Japanese ramen, but what we we served were fried egg strips. The ramen was pretty bad. Lol. When wifey comments that "it's ok" she's being polite. And other signs: she struggles to finish even half of the dish and leaves the meat from the ramen. I tried it and agree that it's not good at all. In all fairness, we are comparing this ramen to the likes of Ramen Isshin, Sansotei, and we recently came back from Tokyo, Japan. The broth lacked flavour, the egg was not the gooey yolk, the pork wasn't good. I told my wifey I owed her another ramen dinner :) Maybe it's because the owners are Korean and this is a Korean version of ramen?; 2/5
I had the Dinner version of the Beef Teriyaki and Sashimi Bento ($19). The included salad was good and so was the dressing. I found some bad greens in the salad -yellow. Yes throw these out! Sashimi, tempura, miso soup, and beef teriyaki were all good. The edamame was very salty and unedible; 3/5
This restaurant is quite small. Yet, service was very slow. Based on the number of tables, it could accommodate approximately 16-20 people. While we were there, 2 groups of customers (both were a party of 4) were turned away. The lady asked if they had reservations. Both didn't. She told them she already had reservations and she didn't have a table for them. I shook my head at the way they conducted business. My friends and I were there for about 1.5-2 hours and she left an empty table for a reservation instead of serving those customers. By the time we left the restaurant, the 4-seat table was still left unoccupied. Anyway, that's their decision lol.
We will not be coming back to this restaurant.
