Hanami in Glasgow City

¡OMG! Sueño con la comida a diario! DELICIOSO, FRESCO, SABROSO, INCREÍBLE! He estado aquí unas 5 veces y he probado bastantes cosas en el menú. Cada plato ha sido espectacular. Sashimi, Skewers, Sushi y Tempura... todo 10/10 El ambiente es genial, el personal es muy amable y los baños están muy limpios. Pequeñas cosas hacen la diferencia y este lugar las hace muy bien! Wasabi y soya están en la mesa listos para usar y en hermosos dispensadores, de acuerdo con el tema del restaurante. El mejor wasabi y soya que he cenado. Muy buena calidad y auténtico. El sashimi es tan fresco y suculento. Las brochetas de carne y filete son jugosas y están llenas de sabor... También vienen con un baño de sal especiada que era 100% Tempura de langostino. . . Mi boca está salivando sólo de pensar en ellos. Fresco, alto, mullido y tan satisfactorio! ¡El atún rojo es algo por lo que morir! Nos vemos en unos días de nuevo : )

Expensive with fair food quality. Tofu nigiri only having half piece of sweet tofu. One of prawn Tempura tastes not fresh enough.

Had a delicious dinner, there were loads of vegan options - I had the seaweed salad, vegetable hand-roll, cucumber maki and vegi sushi, all were so good. Friends had tofu & kimchi donburi and chicken yaki soba and all were excellent. Staff were friendly and we will definitely come back when in Glasgow. Booking needed as saw a few people turned away.

Wonderful food and plenty of it

I cannot rant about this place enough. Definitely a go to restaurant for my partner and I. Had a disaster with another booking last night so chanced our arm at getting a table with no booking and were very lucky to get one. Some tables are a little cramped but you quickly get over it. The food is always so fresh and everything we’ve had from the menu has been absolutely delicious. Service is impeccable as the staff couldn’t be any nicer and are extremely attentive. The food comes out super quick and the chefs are crazy talented as the quality never declines. This is absolutely a spot worth trying. Takeaways also travel extremely well!

Been a fan of Hanami for over 3 years , food was amazing all the time , just the service by the same male staff with glasses has been getting worst and worst , last time we were in , he been so rude from the start to end . Just ask him to get us a spoon that we normally get with the meal and he just couldn’t be bothered with rude attitude like we are rushing him. Unlike there was another waiter very considerate and will provide everything without you even need to ask.

Beautiful Japanese food restaurant with lovely atmosphere, food is very nice and staff friendly too! Lunch time is not super busy , we had lovely and chill friend time here . Dinner time recommend reservations. Highly recommend Lava sushi, and all dragon rolls nice ! If you love Squid dishes, definitely try their fried Squid in starter menu, very fresh made , love it! Thank you

Lovely interior, lovely staff Food was delicious!

Beef rice and sashimi are both good. The tuna sashimi in sweet sauce has too much sesame, and the sesame flavor is so strong that you can't taste anything else. Overall not bad.

Food for service user cancelled when on shift and now left with no food and no call or text to tell it was cancelled interesting Mangeing. Shocking attitude.

I had a fantastic dining experience at Hanami Japanese Restaurant! This was my first time trying Japanese cuisine, and it exceeded all my expectations! As a lacto-vegetarian, I was delighted with the variety of options available. We started with the spicy miso soup, which was flavorful. The edamame beans were fresh. The highlight of our meal was the sushi combo veggie box platter, which included 4 avocado maki, 2 tofu nigiri, and 2 seaweed gunkan. It was beautifully presented, and each piece of sushi was delicious and expertly crafted. The variety in the platter was impressive, and every bite was a delight. The service was excellent, with friendly and attentive staff who made sure we had everything we needed. Overall, Hanami Japanese Restaurant provided an amazing introduction to Japanese cuisine, and I highly recommend it to any fellow vegetarians or anyone looking for an authentic and delightful dining experience!

Popped in for some lunch and thoroughly enjoyed. Sushi was so fresh, gyoza were absolutely delicious and both yakisoba were best we’ve tasted in a long while. Service was top notch too. Lovely wee place.

Great little gem of a restaurant. Was lucky to get a table as they were almost fully booked so that would be a smart move for anyone wanting to eat here. I went for the Chicken Katsu Curry and it was divine. (I couldn't wait to get started before taking a pic 😬). Also got the California roll witch was class as well. Server's were very polite and friendly and the aesthetic the place had going on was very nice indeed. Will be going back and can't wait.

En general no impresionado. Uno de los camareros era miserable y extremadamente condescendiente. Había un camarero decente, pero era su primera noche y lo enviaron a casa después de que tomó nuestra orden, así que nos quedamos atrapados con el tipo miserable en su lugar. La comida era básica, Edamame vino frío no al vapor de hecho algunos todavía estaban congelados en el interior. Los rollos de sushi eran adecuados.

10/10 sushi and bento box! Have sat in the restaurant before so knew the food was good, tonight had my first takeaway though and it did not disappoint!

The temaki smelled a bit fishy and it wasn't as good as I'd hoped. the other bits were lovely.

Absolutely wonderful sushi. Friendly and professional service. Cozy space. I recommend.

La comida era absolutamente increíble y tan delicioso. Cuando tenía todo tipo de comida. No podía faltar nada de la comida. Vinos donde vamos a tener precio y el personal es muy agradable también

El servicio era excelente y la comida era increíble. Esperábamos esperar al menos media hora para nuestra comida, ya que pedimos mucho, pero estaba fuera en 15 minutos. La comida era como un baile de sabores en tu boca. Recomiendo el tempura de cangrejo. El sushi y el sashimi eran muy buenos. El arroz fue el mejor que hemos probado, y los pepinillos no se pueden perder. ¡Gracias por un regalo!

The food is excellent and of a high standard. Great service and lovely cosy intimate setting.

Absolutely amazing food! But even better, when we came in with 5 of us, they were very accommodating and moved chairs to get us in. The servers were super kind.

Literally eat here everything I'm in Glasgow. Love it

We visited here for lunch and we found the food to be very fresh and prepared to order Service was very good Wasn’t busy at all at one point we were the only people in for lunch Sadly I felt it was lacking more atmosphere the decor was slightly needing attention But overall this can be overlooked it’s a real hidden gem

Great place to have amazing food, the fish was so fresh ! Highly recommend, staff was really great too!! Will surely come back when possible

Tasty fresh food, nice service, I recommend!

super appreciative of the delivery guy! I preferred early because I was hungry!!

Very good food, highly recommend👍🏻

Had the Wagyu beef fried rice with as much beef as a Greig's sausage roll, my wife had a vegetarian noodle dish with as much veg as a Greigs sausage roll, she also didnt get the catr grilled sqiud because the order hadn't been taken properly. Service not great, could have been given a lot more help with the huge menu (alarm bells ringing) as it was our first (and last) visit. £60 and still hungry for the privilege

Ordered chicken teriyaki bento and fish lover sushi. Both were delicious. Very tasty fish!

Wasn't that busy, the food wasn't that expensive, not to mention it was delicious! And the waiters were very friendly. P.S. The atmosphere of the restaurant is really nice!

Very fresh and very quick delivery. Drink was open and top was only just on the bottle… I’m sure this wasn’t intentional but looked like it had been tampered with.

Food is ice cold. That’s a joke

First time ordering from the restaurant. There was a delay to the order, which is normally fine as long as the food is still warm. But it would be generous to call it lukewarm. The overall food quality was good (taste and portion size). I would normally expect a few of the items I ordered to be crispy, but they were soft (possibly because of the delay). I've given four on both ratings because I've had way worse and still enjoyed the meal. Probably won't order again though sadly.

A brilliant restaurant with delicious food and a lovely theme and staff. Couldn't recommend it more!

My fiancé and I were looking for a Japanese restaurant to try just last week, I found Hanami on google so decided to give it a try. We are so glad we did as it was great. The restaurant decor is lovely, the atmosphere great, staff were lovely & the food was great! Can’t fault it. I have already booked our next visit.

Hanami has become our top choice if we want to eat out in Glasgow. The food is impeccable, the drinks list is nicely curated and the staff are friendly and attentive. If you don’t get the Hanami Roll then you are doing yourself a disservice. But honestly I haven’t regretted anything I’ve ordered in the multiple times I’ve been here.

This is one of the best restaurants I’ve been to in Glasgow. The food is really good, the staff are really lovely, welcoming and accommodating and the service was perfect. The prices are really good too. Cannot recommend this restaurant enough.

Food was good but I didn't like how the delivery driver somehow wasn't able to get into the building when I buzzed him in and left the food outside of the building instead of waiting the 60 seconds for me to come down and let him in. I won't be ordering from here again.

Fantastic informative service. Very nice interior and ambience. Prompt food which was very fresh. Some may consider pricey but personally i considered it well worth it. First time trying fatty tuna and the waygu was top grade waygu...both melt in the mouth and amazing. Soft shell crab was perfectly executed and lovely large meaty chunks. Been to many sushi establishments and this was setting the bar. A must for any sushi lover.

They accidentally forgot an item but after a brief call to them it was rectified and we got all our food in the end

和牛寿喜锅和天妇罗都棒棒哒；烤物弱一些，焦味有点重，鸡肉处理的口感有点点干柴。在格拉斯哥竟然吃到了心心念念的和牛！开心😃

Really delicious. Will order again.

Great meal the stuff are very friendly staff and the chicken custu curry and chicken gyozas are very good. Overall vary good place would recommend.

went in for solo lunch and it was lovely! you can see in the photos the food was to die for, deserves to be way busier than it was. only thing I wish is that the plates were warm, the food came out hot but cooled really quickly was amazing though! will definitely be back

Have eaten here twice now and Hanami is quickly becoming my favorite restaurant in Glasgow. Both times the service has been exactly what I like. The staff are extremely hospitable, welcoming, and attentive, leaving you to enjoy your food but always on hand. The food is incredible too. Unmistakably fresh, presented beautifully, and everything is brought out as and when it is ready which adds an element of honesty to the experience. Very reasonably priced too for what you get, my partner and I have eaten here twice and both times we've filled our stomachs with food and drink for 40-50 quid (excluding tip), A great option for couple's date night. The atmosphere is nice and cozy, modern but not overstated. Last night I ate here and got chatting to the owner after witnessing some troubling customers being rude to him and the staff, he dealt with the situation with the utmost professionalism and proceeded to chat away to me straight after. A lovely guy, it makes me happy and gives me hope to know there are people like him in hospitality who are passionate and professional about their job. It is something that can't be faked and makes the customers experience and unforgettable one, thank you Hanami! I will definitely be back, and will be spreading the good word around Glasgow.

Delivery was rapid and the food was super fresh. Looking forward to ordering from Hanami again.

The food was just OK.. not very tasty. Miso was bland as well, and not hot.

Amazing food. Will definitely be ordering again 🤩

We were here early as we didn't have a booking so table had to be returned in 90 mins. Food was good and service was great.

I took my husband here for his birthday and it was fantastic. The best spicy tuna rolls and the dark dragon roll was just delicious. Definitely will be going back.

Thursday lunchtime - fairly quiet. The people on the next table left significant leftovers - their bad. We ordered most of the menu and none of it disappointed. I have long considered wagyu beef to be greatly overrated, but perhaps I was wrong, judging by the nigri. Yakitori combo was delish, especially the gizzard. I also enjoyed the mochi (mochi ice cream). Now go!

Similar to the restaurant next door, this place also adds a mandatory 10% service charge to tables of 4 or more unannounced until you are presented with the bill (witnessed this happening to a table of Chinese patrons sat in the vicinity). Dishes are already expensive in relation to what you get, even when taking inflation into account. Dishonest practice. Would not recommend. EDIT: With reference to owner response claiming tips not being mandatory - the charge was not presented as discretionary or optional, nor was this being mentioned by the service staff at all who was explaining to the customers what the additional charge was. And, for visitors reading, hidden (non-optional) charges ARE NOT industry practice in the UK.

Delicious food, well presented, hot and on time. Perfect. A real gem. Thanks!

Food was from another world. One of the best japanese restaurants I've tried. The timing of the plates was perfect. The service was on point with a friendly attitude! Highly recommend. Thanks for the outstanding experience

Best japanese food I have ever had. The food is of an incredible quality. The staff and atmosphere are also extremely welcoming. After a full dinner the bill was very cheap.

Un vrai regal... accueil efficace et souriant...large choix, super bien presenté et surtout frais, bien cusine et bon...nous nous sommes regalés...a recommander et penser a reserver pour le soir..paw necessaire le midi

Great service and incredible food!

Absolutely loved our meal. Food ,service everything was top notch! Will definitely be back 100%

Ever since I’ve been to Japan, I’ve been searching tirelessly for Otoro sushi, or fatty tuna sushi and I finally, FINALLY! Found it here. The ambiance is cosy, the waiters are super friendly and nice and always check everything’s okay and just generally very helpful. Presentation is A+ and the food tastes great! Well done guys! And thank you for making my day :)!

Love this place. Order from it all the time. Steak Bento Box is delicious and going to the restaurant in person to sit in is 10x better. Best restaurant

Quick lunch of Miso soup and sushi

Great venue, fabulous food and staff know there stuff

amazing as always - best sushi in Glasgow 👍

I tried one of the menu items from Hanami which is called Gyudon. It is Japanese rice bowl. Personally, I like the taste. The mixture of the ingredients blend very well in my tongue. As an Asian I can say it was a perfect dish. Also, the portion was so generous. So, you will not regret buying the Gyudon here.

Starters were amazing as was the sushi. The yakiudon meh - no flavour

5 star sushi and sashimi, grilled eel is very good also - a bit pricey if you want wagyu and foi grois though... but worth every penny

Came here last minute and we were given a cosy and spacious booth despite it being a busy Saturday night. The menu is amazing, with so much choice. The food was spectacular and the tempura was the best I think I’ve ever had. The service was great and I can’t wait to return! I’ve told friends and family to visit too.

Foods were fresh and hot, but could use a good seasoning especially for the takoyaki. It tasted quite bland and the octopus filling also quite tiny. Others were delicious, the tempura, tuna tartar and sushi so worth to try. Ambience was okay, some server seemed unfriendly while others actually very helpful and warm. A great Japanese restaurant, if only all the servers were nice and welcoming.

壽司魚片唔新鮮，大拖羅肉色偏瘀黑色。 炒烏冬落味精好重手。 價錢偏貴，坐位有限…

no any paking space , not fresh, no service

Good Sushi and lots of other options available. Wagyu beef looked Amanda will definitely try next time.

Hot in temp and full of flavour. Absolutely outstanding ❤️

Evening meal with friends. Very relaxed atmosphere with friendly and knowledgable staff and a varied menu. Great quality and presentation and good value in a very crowded foody area of town.

Delicious food - reasonable pricing - fast delivery. All in all, would recommend and will be ordering again!

Wonderful Udon dish and tasty dessert

Visited before an swg3 gig that’s just around the corner. Freshest gyoza I’ve ever had. Really great food and friendly staff. We will be back!!

Best Japanese restaurant in Glasgow

I cannot say enough nice things about this place. It is top-notch every time I go. Sushi is fantastic and fresh. Get literally any roll or sashimi or temaki, etc. You won't be disappointed. First time I tried Yakisoba and it was soooo so good. Seaweed salad was actually very filling (and of course yummy). Don't sleep on the desserts! The matcha roll was SO good. Haven't seen or tasted a single thing that I wouldn't eat from there. Have dined in and ordered online. Nothing like dining in, but even the online pick-ups have been fantastic.

A group of us (8 people) had lunch at Hanami on a Saturday, at about noon time. We had made a reservation a day before and we were promptly seated. That was great. However, service felt hurried from the outset. From being herded quickly into the restaurant to "keep out the cold", orders to hand the plates up/down the table, and very quickly clearing everything and offering us our bill. The waiter/manager might be better off in the military than a restaurant! And mind you, the rest of the tables were pretty much empty lest 3-4 couplets, so we were unsure how come the rush. We had Gyudons, Chirashidons, Beef Udons, Croquettes, Agedashi Tofu. Food was excellent by our Asian standards. Would recommend this place for some tasty food and ambience BUT would advise that you go during peak hours so that being rushed about would be more normal.

My long-term favourite Japanese place in Glasgow ❤️ The food is excellent.

About 4th time ordering. Food is often good here, but been disappointed tonight when we ordered delivery for the first time. Just called after 50 mins wait to be told they "missed the order" during busy period and are "making it now" to be delivered "soon". No offer of free delivery / complementary dish etc to make up for this. 40 quid worth of food and over an hour waiting now (it's not arrived yet). Disappointing doesn't cover it. Won't be ordering again.

Outstanding food and great service - will be back to try the a5 wagyu! Update: Tried the wagyu beef sandwich! Genuinely one of the most delicious things I’ve ever eaten, totally worth the hype!

국이 짜요... the rice was cooked properly and the ambiance was very nice. Seabass nigiri could be my favorite. Not sure if I'll visit again though.

The sauce spilled all over the rice, the salad, the pickles and the pot stickers. Why? Because they tied two bags together containing the foods, and there was no way the Bento Box could be kept and delivered flat and level. The box is forced to tilt and the sauce spilled when two bags, one of them holding the Bento Box, are tied together. I said to keep the food level - but they did not. My salad is soaked with soya sauce, my pot stickers have gone soggy and my salad is all salty! Annoyed!

I'm hooked on kimchi beef donburi. I think my fourth now. This was incredible, superb. Must try something else one day. Have had tuna nigiri lovely and veg gyosa ok in the past. I'll be back. Asahi on tap is great.

The best sushi I’ve ever had. Will definitely become a repeat customer when I visit Glasgow again.

Enjoyed our visit here so much, we will definitely be back. Amazing food, amazing service. Our server was great, she was so lovely & helpful. Delicious. Highly recommend

Very nice and attentive staff and fresh, delicious food. The prices are good too!

Hi People, Love your restaurant and the food, but can you please do something about your security alarm!!! Im staying very close and your alarm goes off in the middle of the night and goes on for HOURS at times with no reason!!!! There's no one in the street!!! It's happening quite frequently and It's super loud!!! I thought it was someones car alarm but now in the morning I was passing through your restaurant and it's definitely your alarm and it was going off again for like HALF AN HOUR!!!! Im Sure people living around would be grateful if you would fix this issue. Thanks.

Polite and quick service with a smile, cozy atmosphere and beautiful food.

Absolutely incredible Japanese food. Gyoza maybe the best I've had in the UK and the staff were wonderful. The mochi is also excellent so make sure you leave room for dessert. Great options for vegans too, would definitely recommend.

Pax: 2 Meal: Dinner Diet: Vegan The entrance itself has a curtain that gives a vibe of calm and seclusion on this busy street. If it's raining outside you place your umbrella at the entrance and walk in for a pleasant dining experience. The staff is welcoming and so is the ambience. The first impression being the menu, is not only large but also very descriptive. To top it off there are pictures of quite a few dishes to help the customer decide. This should help first timers sail through smoothly. While beverages are preferred with meals, hot water in a pot works best for cold rainy days. Dry food is served on a wooden plate and arrives rather quickly. It is best eaten slowly, on it's own and in quiet. A delight for those who enjoy simple basic food. Order: Tofu Nigiri Avocado Hosomaki Hot water. Food 5/5 Service 5/5 Ambience 5/5

Great Japanese food, family loved it. Try the big pot that gets cooked at your table.

Food is delicious and reasonably priced for thr quality. Waiters are friendly. Would really recommend.

Best sushi in Glasgow. Yakitori less good but still decent. Wife lived the tofu option and drinks were tasty too. Excellent service

Had placed an order on JustEat for collection time of 22:15, unbeknownst to me at the time that service finished at 9:45, arrived at the restaurant around 10 to collect it, to be told they hadn't received it and that service finished 15 minutes ago, I accepted this as it was my fault for ordering so late only for the head chef to ask me what I wanted, sat and bleathered to one of the waitresses and 10 minutes later he had made my order, I honestly cannot express how thankful I am for this seemingly small act of generosity. Upon arriving home and opening the bag only to be greeted with a mountainous amount of food in my Beef Donburi and as always was top tier ... I'm still suffering the next morning from eating too much. 😅 So I just want to say a massive thank you to the staff and the chef for going out their way, and in the future, I'll try not to leave it so late when ordering. 😅

Been there twice, food quality is above average in UK, not the best value for money. It would be nice if they provide real Japanese service, like serving free tea and miso soup with donburis.

Great little authentic Japanese, in Glasgow! Friendly and helpful wait staff, prompt service and great food.

The best sushi I have ever tasted, the freshness of the salmon, juicyness of the wagyu beef, and the quality of the sushi rice was heavenly. The waiters were nice and the aesthetics of the place were great. Priceless food, really happy I chose to eat here. 10/10 would go again

One of best Japanese restaurants outside of Japan in the world. Scotland is lucky to have this place.
