Hana re
Intimate 10-seat omakase counter from Chef Atsushi Yokoyama serving precision-driven sushi with imported Japanese seafood — one of OC's most coveted reservations.
Why It Stands Out
OC's Michelin-starred omakase destination — Chef Yokoyama's quiet precision and direct Toyosu sourcing make it among California's most respected sushi counters.
What locals say about Hana re
Locals love itLocals describe Hana re as a tranquil, high-end sanctuary where Chef Atsushi Yokoyama transforms seasonal ingredients into edible art. This intimate 10-seat counter is praised for its meticulous omakase, featuring standout dishes like A5 Miyazaki beef and a celebrated almond panna cotta. While the experience is noted for being expensive and requiring advance planning, it remains a premier destination for serious sushi enthusiasts in the area.
