Let’s see how people review this restaurant

"Delicious! Great food, great service, great drinks. Between two of us we had the Corn Tempura (must get this!), the Black Fried Rice, the Pork Belly Yakitori, Shishito Peppers, the Skirt Steak Yakitori, and the Chicken Meatball Yakitori. Everything was so tasty, my favorites were definitely the Chicken Meatball and the Corn Tempura. I also ended up getting the Sour Dez cocktail which was also really yummy. Would definitely recommend!"—Sadi K.
“We had our date night here. We didn't drink but we ordered a lot of food. All dishes are flavorful and recommended! Super delicate and tasty! Please order the yuzu sparkling drink! Will definitely come back again!"—Paige M.
“It was mid-afternoon and we were really hungry. Hatch had an intriguing menu, so we hoofed it over there with the help of the maps app. Our waiter walked us through the menu explaining that the plates were for sharing and each person should order 2-4 yakatori skewers. My personal faves were the black chicken karaage and the onigiri. I was, however, disappointed in the lack of seaweed on my grilled onigiri despite the illustration in the menu which was wrapped in seaweed.”—Allie C.

"Excellent Shabu Shabu. Fresh ingredients, great service, delicious food. Good prices. We enjoyed the sukiyaki with a large serving of ribeye and pork, plus the fresh veggie platter. Really enjoyed all the sauces. Highly recommend."—Tiffany F.
"OBSESSED WITH THIS PLACE. Could eat here everyday, sometimes we do multiple times a week haha. Go before 3oclock to get AYCE. All the broths are insane, the vegetables are so fresh, and the sides and toppings are perfect. Grab a little chili sauce, sesame sauce, garlic, green onions, and peppers, mix it with an egg yolk and enjoy with any of the meats! The drinks are also delicious. A calm casual environment with good music and great employees."—Lyrik K.
