Hanabi Japanese Restaurant

Tops in Nashville area

Hanabi is perhaps the best kept secret in Nashville. This place isn't super great, but it's best around, in terms of food, pure and simple. Being new to the Nashville area, I can't figure out why certain other place in Brentwood is far more popular - sushi there is clearly pedestrian, wouldn't measure up in bigger cities. Hanabi, by contrast, would measure up well.

Best sushi EVER!!!

by witchlady731 at Citysearch

I lived in San Diego for over 20 years, and I can tell you unequivocally that this is the BEST sushi I've ever had! My boyfriend, a meat-and-potato Texan, has now become a sushi addict because of Hanabi. Both Tony and Aji (sp?) are amazing sushi chefs -- the food is gorgeous as well as yummy -- and everything is incredibly fresh. Have a Hanabi roll -- it's fabulous!!!

• Pros: Super-friendly staff, phenomenal food, exceptional service

Authentic

I lived in Japan and Hanabi is my favorite Japanese restaurant in the south. They have a warm and inviting atmosphere and the food is authentic and wonderful. We drive 2 hours from Alabama specifically to eat at Hanabi.

• Pros: Best in the south

Always Awesome!

We have been going here for over two years and this is by far the best/freshest sushi place in town. We have gone every where and no place tops this one. The owner is such a hard worker and is always there. The servers come and go but we have never received bad service. Everyone is friendly and the sushi is amazing!

• Pros: fresh sushi
