Editorial Review for Haru Park Avenue – by Citysearch Staff
Tanks of robotic fish and a 50-foot sushi bar are the visual highlights of this sleek eatery, the fourth and largest outpost of sushi chain Haru. Expect big strips of fish and a spillover crowd from Haru's recently opened location at 43rd Street and Seventh Avenue.

If you enjoy the cuisine of japan, this is NOT the place to go. The price and quality of the fish is average, and I would not even consider a non-sushi/non-sashimi dish. Everything seems to be laden with chain-style ketchup sauces, changing the dishes' taste from what you would expect and what it should be. The salad tasted old, the dressing was watery and oily, and the "teriyaki" dishes do not have an authentic teriyaki taste. To top it off, the service was terrible. The waitress forgot a soup, 3 salads and a bowl of rice and ignored the table for 10-15 minutes at a time. If you don't like your food, too bad - you are expected to pay full price for food you cannot eat. The food is NOT for japanese food lovers, and neither is it for people who enjoy quality of service.

I am a big fan of Haru on 3rd Ave. and 75th St., great place, great food. But this one on Park Ave. is simply bad. It's crowded, looks more like a place to have a lunch meeting where nobody cares about the food. I went there the first time, the sushi was average (came warm). Second time, the sushi was warm again, the order came wrong and it simply didn't taste good - and you won't believe it - there were pieces of broken glass on my diet Coke. I did swallow some of them and the rest stayed in my mouth. The reward for such experience? A $10 credit on my tab. They couldn't even have the sensitivity of removing the diet Coke from the tab! Unbelievable. In terms of food quality, I already said, below average. The wasabi came dark green, hard like a rock, typically of wasabi prepared two days ago. I can do better at home by buying wasabi powder, honestly. Went to this place twice, gave it a last chance, will never step in ever again.
Pros: Hot manager or hostess, whatever her role was
Cons: Everything else
