Hachiroku Shokudo & Sake Bar

We had an incredible meal here for the first time. Everything we had was amazing! Service was great as well! We will definitely be back!

We had such a lovely Valentine’s Day here. The staff was exceptionally attentive and gracious from the moment we arrived. It was clearly one of the busiest nights of the year, and while there was a slight delay with the entrees, it was completely understandable given the volume. The food was beautifully executed and absolutely worth the wait. What really stood out was the staff’s composure and professionalism. Even under pressure, everyone remained warm and accommodating. The hostess even offered us a glass of sake while we waited. We would truly love to see them continue to thrive and grow in New Haven. Hachiroku is such special addition to the city.

What I remember the most of this birthday dinner was the incredible textures of the food. The house made tofu was out of this world. The best miso soup I’ve ever had. The sushi was delicious and the service impeccable.

The food was served hot and the server was nice. That's about it. Ate here with some friends who were hyping it up to me. The prices are absolutely laughable. The selection are set at what I'd expect to pay in Midtown NYC or in Greenwich. Very much out of step with New Haven and it's demographics. I chose menu items from the "to share" part of their menu and literally got a meal served to me on dessert-sized plates. I figure the other menu items are served on toothpicks. They didn't even include rice with my dish, of course. It's well-known that Japanese people NEVER eat rice with their meals. What a mess. Visit this place if Panda Express is all you know about Asian food and you wanna feel fancy by dropping $20 on a bowl of arugula you can eat with chopsticks. I won't be back.

By in far the best restaurant in New Haven! I have taken my friends and customer here because the food is so amazing and delicious! They are not afraid of flavor and trying something new. I highly recommend this!

Excellent Japanese restaurant with a variety of small and large plates with teishoku options with the larger plates. There are so many delicious items to try from the menu, it's my favorite place to go with friends for sharing plates. The okonomi brussel sprouts are a must if you're looking for options. Other favorites: black cod, agedashi tofu, and the pork short ribs. It's impossible to go wrong with anything. The staff are always super friendly and can give plenty of sake or Japanese whiskey recommendations. If you can't decide they have flight options for both as well, which is a great way to try something new.

If you are look for incredible tasting food, fresh fish, Intricate and artistic flavours and most importantly passion from the chefs and staff this is the best place to come. The food was AMAZING , the people who worked there were just as good! Kind, passionate, excited and super fun! You will not be disappointed, if I wasn’t so full I would have ordered even more!! Highly recommend. It’s not cheap, but worth every penny ultimately when the food is impeccable and the staff are incredible! FYI: Charles is a real hoot and extremely knowledgeable. Thanks!! Will come back soon.
