Editor’s Note

Last updated 30 May 2026

Our take: Hachimaru Izakaya offers a cozy, authentic izakaya atmosphere that transports diners to Japan.

We note consistent praise for the freshness of their sashimi, with the salmon sashimi being a standout.

The hot plate beef rice is frequently highlighted for its tender beef and comforting qualities.

Service is generally described as attentive and friendly, contributing to a positive dining experience.

However, we observe some recurring feedback regarding the dim lighting at the entrance, which can make menu reading difficult, and the small portions for the price, particularly for items like the $60 sashimi platter for two, which offers only one slice of each type per person.

The restroom cleanliness has also been flagged as an area for improvement.

We think it's best to make reservations, especially on weekends, to secure a spot.

Overall, Hachimaru Izakaya is a good option for those seeking a Japanese izakaya vibe and fresh sashimi, but be prepared for potentially small portions relative to the cost.

What customers say

Hachimaru Izakaya is generally praised for its authentic, cozy Japanese izakaya ambiance and the freshness of its sashimi, particularly the salmon and hotate.

Many customers highlight the tender hot plate beef rice and the attentive, friendly service.

However, some guests find the lighting dim, the menu potentially unhygienic, and the portion sizes small for the price, especially for sashimi platters and grilled squid, leading to concerns about value for money.

Restroom cleanliness has also been noted as an area for improvement.
