Our third experience having the Omakase menu. The service is incredibly attentive, highly recommend sitting at the bar to watch the prep. The food comes out looking like art and taste is perfect. One of our dishes was slightly too salty for my wife's preference, it was immediately rectified thanks to the attentive staff. It's a new menu each time which will keep us coming back over and over for special occasions.

We loved the Teppanyaki experience at Hatsuhana. My husband is a tough critic when it comes to food and he looked at me part way through and said - this is amazing.

This was the first Teppanyaki experience for many in our party and it was the best Teppanyaki experience for those who have been before. Our chef Max made our dinner fun and exciting and managed our smallest party members expertly with big flames and endless egg catching opportunites. Thanks Max and the team for a very special night we won't forget!
