Hachiroku Handroll Bar & Tapas

How this place doesn't have a Bib Gourmand or a star is wild to me. This is the best Omakase experience I’ve had by far.

This is not only the best sushi experience I have had in CT but probably top 5 period. So impressed. You do pay for it, but the quality, creativity, attention to detail, and service make this a very worthy spot for a special evening. Great sake list. We shared numerous items, but the uni and baby scallops really stood out.

For Omakase, hand rolls and sushi, it is the best place in Haven. We like going early, and you must have a reservation on a weekend since it’s very popular. Good quality fish and the hand rolls are nice and crunch. We love the concept of Omakase, yesterday we had 9 sushi Omakase that also included Chu-toro and O-toro. They also have a very comprehensive list of Sake and offer flights. My go to dessert is Anmitsu 🥰 which is a happy ending to this amazing meal. Gen and his crew are amazing!

Best omakase and sushi in Connecticut. I usually eat omakase in NYC, but today I tried Hachiroku for the first time. The fish is high quality. Chef GEN is from Japan and super passionate. It is not cheap but I think it is worth it. Just like other Japanese sushi chef, he offers many white fish in his omakase menu, which I really like. The place is clean and minimalist. I will visit again!!

Omakase is a fantastic value. To the reviewer wondering why this (and any other of the city’s excellent spots) has no nods by Michelin, it’s because CT doesn’t pay to be in the guide.
