Hamachi Sushi 34 | Japanese Sushi Restaurant

Overall I would recommend this place because the sushi is very fresh and good quality. I ordered the sushi lovers combo platter (yellowtail) and it was very filling. I also recommend the gyoza especially during happy hour because the deals are really good for drinks and appetizers. We also ordered the spicy salmon crispy rice which I was not the biggest fan of, but my friend liked them. Maybe just me. The matcha crepe cake is PHENOMENAL, like some of the best I’ve ever had. Also, the decor inside is really wonderful. There’s anime If you have the chance to eat her in person you definitely should.

Solid casual spot for traditional rolls and sushi spot offerings. Everything is decently priced. Walked in on a weekend late afternoon and the place was starting to get packed towards the evening. We ordered a few items off their Happy Hour menu + a few off the regular menu. HH weekdays are 4-7 pm + weekends 5-7 pm, FYl! What we got: - Crispy Rice: Great bite-sized pieces; filling! - Gyoza / Kani Salad: Good, standard bites - Sex on the Beach Roll / Rainbow Roll: Both were tasty with fresh fish! The fish:rice ratio were on point as well! - Shrimp & Veg Tempura: Crispy, fresh, and delicious. Overall, I'd deem this as a reliable neighborhood spot. Would definitely recommend + return for when I'm in the mood for casual sushi!

What a spread for the price! Very fresh and unexpected in portion size (in the positive)! I ordered delivery so I cannot comment on the atmosphere and the dine-in service bit my order was ready super fast and even delivered 12 minutes earlier than anticipated. I HIGHLY recommend the Sushi Sandwich. Sooo good! Flavorful and melts in your mouth. But again, good portion, so share with a friend!

When I arrived, the two women at the front desk seemed visibly frustrated,. Seem like they had a lot of to go orders. I stood there for a few minutes before they asked me what I wanted. I couldn’t help but feel like I was interrupting them. It’s a cute place, filled with things to look at, like action, figures, and flags, and all kinds of cool Asian art. I was sat down, and the waiter was very friendly, at first . I asked him what he recommended and he told me about a favorite on TikTok, the sushi sandwich, and a couple of his favorites. I ordered a few things, Shishito peppers, shrimp gyoza, and the sushi sandwich. The Shishitos were not good., they were tough like they were undercooked and they had no seasoning hardly. The shrimp gyoza was OK, just OK. They looked like they had been steamed and fried. So kind of wet and had crunchy spots. The sushi sandwich came out and it was actually very good.. The waiter told me that I should eat it with my hands. I get that, but I feel like they should offer a wet towel or at least a wet, wipe or something to wipe your hands if they’re expecting you to eat it with your hands. I told the waiter I wanted to order more food, he was visibly annoyed. He didn’t come back to take my order., I flagged him down and he sent someone else to me. Then he left, so I’m assuming his shift was over and he didn’t want to be bothered. Overall, I felt like this restaurant was mid. Although the sushi sandwich is innovative and tasty and the ambience was interesting.

hamachi 34 is genuinely the cutest thing ever!! not only is the atmosphere so comfy and calming with the warm lights and decoration, but the food and service is out of this world. i was expecting just another sushi restaurant but the kindness of the staff and the quality of the food (especially considering its affordable price) made me 100% sure about coming back whenever i visit ktown next.

100% the best sushi spot on the city. Sushi is flavorful and service is amazing. Price is not bad and portions are fare

We had shrimp gyoza, takoyaki, the sushi pizza and the sushi sandwich. With miso of course. This is my 3rd time here and I get the sushi pizza every time! It’s such a cute place, our waiter Jimmy is very outgoing and playful as well as honest with his suggestions. The staff was very attentive to our table with water and getting our finished dishes put away. It was a tasty meal with nice pricing to be in the heart of manhattan. Definitely can’t wait to come back!

Absolutely amazing restaurant!! The service was very good, very quick and all of the staff are very nice. The food was even more amazing, you can tell that it is all very fresh and well made.

Solid spot from uber eats-- the sushi deluxe was tasty and well worth the price. I wish the tuna was a bit fattier and it tasted a bit frozen (granted it was snowing outside and the delivery was far), but still lovely bite nonetheless. I'd come back to try it in person. The katsu also looked great. Cheers!

Like many others, I found this spot on TikTok because of their viral sushi sandwich, so I had to give it a try. I also ordered the salmon set, spicy tuna rice, and a few basic rolls. Overall, the portions were solid, and the food wasn't bad, but it also wasn't great. The fish didn't taste very fresh and the rolls were just okay. The sauces definitely helped, but the filling itself lacked flavor/bland, which was disappointing. I'm not sure if I caught them on an off day or if this is just how it always is. It wasn't terrible, but I've had better sushi elsewhere. Maybe it's worth trying in person instead of takeout.

Offers a decent price price for plenty of selection in a nice, eclectic atmosphere. We came here on a rainy day craving some sushi and stumbled across this place on Yelp. The inside it filled to the brim with various Japanese-theme items and decor from anime to traditional posters. Service was fast and attentive as there were not many people during our dinner time. We ordered a sushi boat to share between two and found that is was the right amount. We could have ate more but for the price I think it was apt. Quality was as expected for the price. Nothing was bad or off putting in any way, but nor was anything a standout. This is a great place to go for quantity and a great time!

First time ever ordering from this restaurant. Honestly was very delicious, traveled well through delivery. The special rolls were amazing but the bento box may be the star of the meal.

I've ordered takeout from Hamachi 34 and was impressed with the efficiency and quality of my meal both times. Good combo deals too - a three roll combo is under $20 with a wide selection to choose from. The sushi deluxe combo is also a good deal with a generous 10 pieces of nigiri and a tuna roll for $30. Fresh fish and a nice balance of sushi rice to fish. Satisfying meal even when eaten alone in your hotel room. Service is also really friendly. Once they were about to close up but rushed out an order for me. Worth dining in if you can spare the time.

I doordashed it but the food was great. 3 rolls for 20 bucks? Amazing. The rice ratio is literally perfect and not too much and the sushi sandwich was delish!

Came here after class for their happy hour, and let me tell you, this is an incredible deal! The spicy tuna crispy rice at happy hour is only $7, and while they may look small in the photo, each piece was actually huge and I left very full. The service was efficient and friendly, and the interior is really fun!

Hamachi 34 is a good spot for sushi that will not break the bank, but I would not travel a distance to eat here. Hamachi 34 is doing brisk business, with a full house on a Monday evening and people walking in the door. Delivery people are steadily picking up orders. I ordered their ultra value proposition of three rolls for $18 at dinner, which becomes $15 at lunch. The three rolls I ordered were spicy tuna, salmon skin, and shrimp avocado and added the Flying Dragon Roll of the Chef Special Menu. If you have had high end sushi, Hamachi 34 will impress you for its value proposition. If you are one who does not care about the different levels of tuna fattiness or are a sushi roll person who is not terribly concerned about nigiri or sashimi,then this is the place and it's priced right. The busy house is indicative of how good a value it is. So the details count with sushi and the soy sauce they have is pretty good, but the pickled ginger is on the dry side and the wasabi is far from freshly ground and is barely passable. The restaurant uses decent wooden disposable sticks and napkins. Let me get the surprising worst of the rolls out of the way first: the spicy tuna roll. It did not taste fresh nor did it have the desired texture and consistency. So the spicy tuna roll fell flat for my tastes. The shrimp avocado roll was surprisingly good in contrast, with good texture and freshness. The salmon skin roll was the best of the three, with crispness in texture highlighting its pop in flavor. I have found salmon skin rolls to be a "cannot miss with this" item and Hamachi 34 did not miss. I deliberated over whether to go with the regular Dragon Roll or the Flying Dragon Roll. Owing to their average at best spicy tuna, this put a damper on an otherwise excellent Flying Dragon Roll. The eel is coating the roll and is abundant for those who like eel. There is some sort of crunchy element inside to give a juxtaposed texture. If the spicy tuna were hittin' here, you would have an outstanding Flying Dragon Roll. I did not have anything else on the menu, but these rolls would give any sushi restaurant an opportunity to show what they can do. Perhaps Mondays are not the best for freshness here, but it remains to be seen if Hamachi 34 can improve upon the inconsistent experience next time I visit. Three stars

I ordered any three roll lunch ($15.50), yaki noodle ($14) and unagi don lunch ($16) for lunch takeout. Portions were good and food was fresh. However, the wait for the food was long and unorganized. The front of the restaurant was packed with delivery drivers so it was impossible to get inside the restaurant and food was not ready when i arrived (probably because so many people had ordered). I would avoid ordering from here during lunch time.

Hamachi 34 offers an incredible lunch special where you can get 3 rolls of sushi and a side soup or salad for $15. I got 2 rolls and a side soup or salad for $13 as well as an appetizer of edamame. The rolls weren't as big as I thought as each only came with 6 pieces. However, this was still plenty of food and a great deal. Would order from here again!

Came here with a reservation on a Sunday lunch with my family. We ordered the below dishes. We got the sashimi boat for 2 and shared it amongst the 3 of us. It was definitely a huge portion and the sashimi was really good and tasted pretty fresh. We even had some leftovers to take home for dinner. The side dishes and the pork katsu dish were really good as well. Since there weren't too many people in the restaurant at the time, the server was really attentive to our needs and was super helpful. The inside of the restaurant is all decorated with anime and other Japanese trinkets which is really nice. The prices are also not insane considering the location. Definitely recommend dropping by if you're craving Japanese food in the area!

I want to preface by saying we have ordered here many many times. Last night we ordered noodles for our son and it came with a surprise guest... a cockroach!!!! It brings me no joy to write this review. We have reported to 311 so that the health department can go inspect the business and only writing this so that you can make an informed decision on where to eat. I'm very sorry to be removing Hamachi 34 from our rotation.

Good walk-in neighborhood sushi place!! Some things were delish, some were mid. I felt like the fish wasn't as flavorful which makes me wonder if it wasn't as fresh? Service was great though, the servers tended to us super attentively and even brought me extra sauce when I asked :D Would come again to fulfill a spontaneous sushi craving but wouldn't really recommend to anyone who asks for sushi places.

Finally tried Hamachi 34 , after my roommate had been ranting about it for years. It did not disappoint. I had the Tiger Roll and Spicy Tuna. The fish quality was great and portions were large. The spicy Tuna was definitely better than most spicy tunas I have had recently. Would definitely recommend

Great lunch option by my office! Fresh ingredients and affordable. I get the 3 roll special.

This place is a hidden gem!!! They were a full house for lunch so I got take out. I got the 2-roll lunch special (comes with a side miso) and it was so fresh and they give you generous fish portions. LOVED the fish-to-rice ratio!! The miso tasted clean and was still hot when I got back to my office. Service was quick - only waited about 10 minutes max. Will definitely be returning and I'm making it my new go-to spot!

I am a huge sushi lover especially all you can eat so I was a little disappointed when I searched this place it said it was AYCE. I forgot the choices we picked with the sushi but they were okay. Godzilla roll and dragon roll were pretty good! The place is super cute! Service was good didn't have to wait too long.

Good sushi at a reasonable price, this little shop has a variety of sushi dishes and special entrees. The sashimi place had a few pieces I loved and then others that were not my favorite. Also really enjoyed the Snow White roll that we got. Service was quick and efficient and they have fun decor. Would recommend this spot for a casual lunch or dinner.

Came here a second time and had the salmon lover and the "sex on the beach" roll. I liked the seared salmon and spiciness of the sex on the beach doll, however, the rice of the salmon lover was hard and not great!

Great sushi spot with great prices and fresh rolls. At lunch time their rolls are 3 for 15 dollars

The rolls are a reasonable price for lunch 3/15.50. They are pretty large, tasty and fresh. They have a large selection to choose from. Had the salmon avocado, shrimp tempura, spicy salmon, tuna... They also had a good variety of other sushi/sashimi, bento boxes....

Shrimp tempura. Portion is large. Taste is ok. Too much breading. And it's not the light panko used by Japanese so it just doesn't taste right. I'll stick to their sushi next time.

Fresh sushi n poke bowls. Great find in the hood. So pleased with the quality of fish. Happy to return

Solid sushi place for both their rolls and their dinner items. They kindly added cucumber to the spicy tuna roll for my daughter. My teriyaki beef was an enormous portion of steak as was my son's pork katsu. We also ordered the chicken gyoza, pan-fried with a little crunch, and edamame, which came warm and salty. The only improvement would be the miso soup which was a little bland and had the tiniest bits of tofu. We ordered online for takeout because we had show tickets. The order was ready within about 20 minutes. Since we were pressed for time, we literally started eating so quickly, I didn't get any photos. The restaurant was pretty lively and we might come back to eat inside next time. I'll also say that the packaging of the dishes for takeout was very nicely done; steamed rice kept separately, a little tin container for wasabi and soy sauce, and even our drinks were separated by cardboard so that they stayed in place while carried. Seriously, it's these details that show such great customer service. Can't wait to go back!

Consistently reliable spot for takeout and delivery; haven't had the chance to dine in. Great prices for lunch specials and even regular priced items for dinner are good; fish is always fresh, good portions; service is quick and efficient whether it's pick up or delivery, never had any issues with my food.

Pretty run of the mill lunch sushi spot. I ordered today for delivery to my office and was underwhelmed even though I didn't have high expectations to begin with. I got the three roll combo for $14 which came with either soup or salad; I opted for the miso soup which was fine but nothing notable. For my rolls, I ordered a spicy tuna, a salmon avocado, and an Alaska roll. The ratio of fish to rice was admittedly very generous so credit where due there. However the quality of the fish was questionable and I don't think I would ever order from there if it weren't for the lunch special. It was fine and I wouldn't warn against it; however I won't order from there again unless I had a distinct reason to.

This has become my go-to spot for takeaway sushi during work. They always have my order ready super quickly and I've never had a bad roll here. The portions are generous and I've recently been splitting their lunch special (choose three rolls - 18 pieces - for $15) into two meals. Definitely recommend!

Disappointed, I buy Hamachi 34 often but the past few times the fish in the sushi rolls has been not great and difficult to chew through. Both the salmon and yellow tail. The tuna has also been funny tasting. Sad because this was my go to sushi spot for a while

New go to delivery sushi spot! Everything is super fresh and great portion sizes. It was delivered very quickly. They have a 3 roll for $20 deal that is great. The salmon avocado roll and crab salad roll are two of my favorites. Will be ordering often!

Went here for a late dinner for me, lunch for my guy, to everyone else 7 pm yesterday. I wasn't all that hungry because I had to eat before hand or I would have fainted by the time it was 7 pm. My guy had a heavy lunch so we kept it light and simple. I got some uni nigiri and he got some salmon nigiri. Although we cannot eat, we always can drink. We shared a sake and it was pretty good. It was called "A drop to the soul?" I don't know if it touched or even tickled my soul, but it was clean sake. For $20, not bad at all. I had time to study the menu because my guy was running late. I looked at other people's reviews and pics to get a general idea of what I wanted. I wasn't all that impressed with the items on the menu and they were missing tamago and ikura in the a la carte section... The uni wasn't the freshest looking uni when it came out. Overall, an okay place. The staff is super nice and the interior is very Japanese. I am not sure if it was intended for me, but when I came back from the bathroom, there was a space heater by me. How thoughtful. Not sure if this place would be my first choice for sushi next time I'm craving sushi, but location is convenient and gets the job done.

On my last night in Manhattan I figured I'd try the "other" sushi restaurant that was within one block of my hotel. Upon reflection I realize I should have ordered the same items from the previous evening at Sen-Nin. Rarely can I bring myself to do that so consider this an un-scientific assessment. I ordered miso soup, wakame salad, and a roll (sorry I don't remember which one as I'm writing this several days after the fact). The food was all good. To my liking. The one thing I noticed is everything on their menu is about $1-$2 less expensive than at Shin-Nen. The decor is not as elevated as Shin-Nen, but it is cozy, the service is good, as is the food.

Service is amazing, but the quality is sushi is not amazing. I would stop here for casual sushi rolls but not sashimi or nigiri

Came here because it was nearby and I'm so glad I did. Our waitress was so funny and friendly, and knowledgeable which really makes the experience of going out to eat so much more enjoyable. It's not a super fancy restaurant but still clean and decorated nicely, with good food and great prices Everyone enjoyed their food. The sushi boat for 2 was a really good deal, I really liked the crispy rice, and the mochi ice cream was yummy. I would definitely come back if I'm looking for a low key night to enjoy some sushi!

Calibrating on value but I'm still mildly conflicted. Solid execution but some missteps. I truly appreciate the flexibility of their 3 rofl combo. They have not only yellowtail but shrimp tempura too! Spicy yellowtail is minced but yellowtail scallion is a rough chop. So where did they fail? Multiple times, I've had bones in my yellowtail. I've encountered bones in discount sushi all the way up to Michelin starred omakase but I'm forgiving it at this price point. Good choice in terms of value if you want something to go with sushi rice and seaweed. Manage your expectations and you'll be happy.

Sushi tastes fresh. Love their Blue Ocean roll! The Spicy Salmon Crispy Rice was okay. Service is fast and friendly.

Decided to order because they had a great deal on Uber Eats - BOGO california rolls. I'm glad I ordered because I got a large amount of food on a budget! Yummy rolls & great takeout packaging. Would order from here again!

This is my new sushi spot for around the corner, quick take out dinner!! The sushi was very good, and I was impressed because the prices were amazing too. This is a really good vibe to take one or two friends on a weeknight to enjoy a quick bite to eat. Service is incredible and always so nice!

Came here for the three rows for $15 lunch. Special. Ordered all three available Yellowtail sushi rolls from the lunch special menu. Spicy yellow tail, yellowtail with habanero, and yellowtail with scallions. The lunch also came with a choice of either salad or miso soup. I chose the salad. I really thought this was going to be a really great deal for $15. Among all the other options in midtown. I was wrong. Everything was just meh. Portion size was on a small side. I really don't know what all these reviews were talking about when they said that the rolls were large. The salad was just a tiny little sample cup of greens and a slice of cucumber. I mean what's the point really. You'll feel a lot more satiated going to Chipotle for a chicken bowl or going to five guys for a double cheeseburger.

Food was good for the price and service was very good. A good local Japanese restaurant on Park Avenue

This place is fantastic. Honestly, we've been to so many random 4+ sushi places in Manhattan and this is absolutely perfect. Everything is so fresh. The atmosphere is laid back and fun. The rolls were beyond amazing. Service was incredible. I can't praise enough. Thank you for a great experience!!!

It's hard to find a Sushi/Japanese restaurant with lunch specials for $15 or less nowadays, especially in midtown. This place still offers 2- and 3- roll lunch specials at a reasonable price along with meat lunch options. Sushi has always been fresh in my experience and the chicken teriyaki is actually one of the best I've ever had - good chicken texture and a tasty sauce that isn't too pungent. Good, affordable food

I was craving sushi and this was the closest spot so went here on a whim. It's in KTOWN though, so there are barely any sushi places in the area. I ordered two rolls and both tasted really fresh and I really enjoyed the spicy tuna roll. It was packed in with tuna and in a way that made it taste so good! The prices are average and the food is good, so I think it's worth it! The place has also nice japanese-style decor and a nice ambience to it as well!

Service was phenomenal and so was the food! Inside is really nice and clean. Definitely will come here again on my next visit to the city.

This sushi restaurant was around the corner of my Midtown hotel and we were starving. I ordered a bento box with protein and I ordered a "Agedashi tofu" which was in their appetizer mentioned but not in their bento box. They obligated and it was thinly sliced. They served it with three pieces of shumai, California roll. The miso soup is weak more like a tea, and tiny tofu. The atmosphere was youthful with anime and manga images and toys. It's fun and casual.

Overhyped. It was alright but way better spots in the city. The crispy rice was too hard and the spicy salmon too fishy for my taste.

Food was ok. Nothing special The ambience looks good. I won't go if you want an authentic japanese food.

The food was delicious. The sushi was fresh and salmon teriyaki was very good. The price was very reasonable on 34th street I was assuming to pay more. The service was very good. The ambiance was very creative which I found my self looking at the wall paper and toys for something I recognized. My office orders from but I'll go back for a dine-in.

I'm absolutely lost for words. Best restaurant. I got two rolls and sashimi and it was phenomenal. I looked and saw someone ordering some kind of sushi boat that was like 3 or 4 feet long. Staff, phenomenal. Casual, fun, and anime

Its great! Amazing service and sushi! Super fresh and so good i forgot to take the picture and this was the only thing left and trust me I ate it lol. Only thing is they unfortunately don't have happy hour specials for sushi anymore. Happy hour only applies to drinks. 5 dollars a beer which isn't too bad. The actual location is pretty cool though. Just spent more than expected and definitely over $30. So good quality overall just not the most budget friendly and you get what you pay for.
