Hanazen

The cozy house-style restaurant. The food is so fantastic! Every dish that we ordered is very delicious, though it’s a little but expensive for us 🤣 The service is very good as well. Booking in advance is recommended!

Amazing food, i made a reservation through line about 3 weeks in advance. When i get to the restaurant by taxi, the driver don't have enough cash for changes, the staff was so kind, he help me with that problem with no hesitation. Sashimi with sesame sauce is exceptional, i have to order it twice.

A Hidden Gem in Ari for Over a Decade — Hanazen Hanazen has been part of the Ari neighborhood for over 10 years now, quietly serving some of the most heartwarming, homestyle Japanese food you’ll ever try. It’s not just a restaurant it truly feels like dining at a close friend’s home. I’ve been a loyal fan for years and still find myself going back at least twice a month. The food is consistently top-notch, no doubts about it. Just a heads-up though: the queue is long and the place is small, so it’s best to book at least a week in advance! What makes Hanazen even more special is the warm and friendly staff. The whole vibe is like visiting a close friend’s house where you feel genuinely welcomed and cared for in such a comforting, effortless way. One important note: the Japanese owner is very passionate about his cooking. He puts his heart into every dish and takes it personally if you leave food unfinished. So please, only order what you can truly enjoy it’s a sign of respect for the chef and the beautiful work he does. I can’t recommend this place enough. If you haven’t tried Hanazen yet, make sure you do at least once in your life. You’ll understand why it’s so loved.
