What People Are Saying About Haru Broadway

Featured Review

Contributor

The Scene – The Times Square location of this Manhattan mini-chain looks rather mundane from the outside, but once inside reveals itself to be a large, bi-level room lit with a golden glow. In typical sushi restaurant style, natural blond wood is everywhere--although the bamboo poles are deployed a little too liberally. Service is good-humored and knowledgeable. – – The Food – Though not for sushi aficionados, the food here is surprisingly good, and better than at some other Haru branches. Shrimp tempura is fluffy, crispy and light, and chopsticks slice easily through…

BEST BARTENDER IN NYC

by 12345j

I have to say that last night I went to your restaurant and had apps and drinks at the bar. I know most of the bartenders however someone named Randall was serving us and said he just started.

He was courteous, attentive and I would welcome anyone interested to have a great experice go see him.

He truly is an asset to your establishment and deserves a raise!!!!

GOT FOOD POISONING!!!

by DeeDee88

The most HORRIBLE after experience of my life! I wouldn't even give this place one star! I got the spicy tuna roll and I couldn't stop throwing up all night. Mind you, this is not the first time I've eaten sushi before and I thought this was a reputable place but it's not. DO NOT GO UNLESS YOU WANT TO GET FOOD POISONING

Yummy sushi!

by XoxoCityLife

I've been to the Broadway/Times Square location three times, and the food was very consistent- consistently delicious! I always order sushi, and last time I went, we ordered the big sampler with a variety of things that I hadn't tried before. The rolls are always my favorite, and the prices are very reasonable. This Haru location is a good sized restaurant, with a nice ambiance for a date- they have gold (XMas) lights going throughout the place. Cute!

Great sushi for the price

by anjelik32

I love Haru - it's great sushi for the price. My favorite is their Fire Roll, it has white and red tuna and jalapenos on it.. yum! I also like the Haru on the UES (the martini lounge).

  • Pros: Interesting rolls
  • Cons: It's in Times Square
