Comment: After a Broadway show we arrived in a hurry for they were somewhat close to closing time. They accommodated us and served us well even though the time. Its a very classy sushi restaurant in the lower basement in the Rockefeller Center area. The sushi and sashimi were fresh and appealing. Loved everything about this restaurant.

Comment: I thought the food was very good. The sushi seemed fresh and we enjoyed everything we ordered. The prices are very reasonable for the area and the staff treated us very warmly. It also had a nice atmosphere and I enjoyed being in the basement, removed from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Comment: Favorite spot in midtown for a business casual lunch. You usually wont need to make a reservation as long as you show up by 11:45. 12pm and itll be dicey depending on the day/season. Lunch specials are always on point and service is always friendly.

Comment: Loved this place! We had just gotten into town and we’re absolutely famished. It was a Friday and we had forgotten to make reservations and couldn’t get in anywhere. We walked in here and they right away saw that we were exhausted and about to give up! LolThey made room for us, feed us the most amazing sushi we have ever had and made us feel right at home and welcome.Food, service, staff was everything hospitality is supposed to be!

Comment: There are hundreds of sushi restaurants in Manhattan, but not all of them are really good. Hama you discover only at 2nd glance, because the restaurant is located in the basement. But it has excellent sushi and absolutely attentive, friendly service. That makes it clearly one of my sushi favorites in New York.

Comment: A decent Japanese place in midtown though would be difficult for the folks with vegan and/ or vegetarian preferences.You can certainly stop for a quick bite of Edamame, vegetables with Iced tea or a drink.Dont expect too much from the ambience as it is not very elegant or classy if you are looking for one.

Comment: I went in for the happy hour which ends at 6:30pm. I ordered the seaweed salad, which was very tasty, and the shrimp shumai, which either wasnt fresh or just didnt taste great. This was recommended to me by the waitress over the little neck clam soup. For $5 a dish in midtown, however, I have no complaints about portion sizes. Service was fine, though happy hour diners were seated in a separate section near the bar. Im glad I tried it but I have no plans to return.

Comment: Stumbled upon this restaurant during a break from watching the St. Patrick’s Day parade and weren’t expecting much but WOW! Loved the calm ambiance in contrast to the busy street outside and the service was great. The weekday lunch specials are amazing, we couldn’t believe it was so affordable. Fish was fresh, portions were large, and everything was delicious. Loved that the teriyaki chicken wasn’t super sweet (like it often is) and the green tea was delicious! They use real leaves and you can get refills of water. Will definitely go back!

Comment: Great Sushi. Appropriate $ for NYC, noisy and hard to have a conversation because its usually busy, but manageable. You have to wait a little to get food because of it being busy at lunch time, but they are honest,upfront and apologetic about it and tell you how long the wait will be until food arrives. I go often 😃. If you go a little before the lunch rush, its very fast!

Highly recommend the sushi/sashimi combo!! With nearly 30-40 wonderfully crafted pieces displayed on a beautiful bridge; each is unique with a variety of accompanying sauces. Food comes up within 10 mins of ordering (great for hungry family members!) I guarantee this is an experience like no other. Highly underrated, so I hope you will come here!

Comment: Some of the best and freshest Sushi in Midtown- and all at a fantastic bargain! I do a lot of work at Radio City and found this gem several years ago, and I go there at least once on every visit to New York. The chefs recognize me when I walk in and I usually sit at the Sushi Bar, where they make me fresh Sushi and serve me cold beer and hot Saké! I am amazed that they can serve such good and fresh Sushi at such a reasonable price! Go by yourself, bring a friend, or a group- you will not leave disappointed!

Comment: I had great omakase sushi here.The price was quite reasonable, and the fish tasted very fresh. Nice refuge from the noise just outside, clean and nice vibe.You can sit at the bar or get a table.You have to go down a steep set of stairs, so unless there is a hidden elevator that I didnt see, best be able to handle stairs. Though if you drink too much sake, you may have fun trying to get back up the stairs as well.

Comment: Clean and fresh with attentive service. Sushi and sashimi high quality and nice cuts. The seaweed salad was a bright dish and perfect starter. The bento boxes have good choices for more standard fare. HAMA is downstairs and can be a great retreat out of cell service!

Comment: Hama is a gem. You can come here and get high quality sushi and rolls for great prices. It’s not just about the budget options though. The skill level of the chefs goes the distance. If you are a real sushi person, try the omakase sushi (at lunch it’s a steal). It’ll take you places.

Comment: I came here for lunch and love this spot. It’s right near Rockefeller center on the bottom floor. The restaurant is large and has nice ambience that is great for a business lunch or quiet lunch at the sushi bar. The wait staff are very friendly and the sushi was great quality. Prices are a bit high ($4 per piece of sushi) but overall I think it’s high quality and well prepared so worth it.

Comment: Nice find for sushi in mid-town! I stopped by Hama during happy hour and was pleasantly surprised with both the selection and quality of their happy hour menu. There was a nice variety of the traditional sushi bar favorite.I had a seaweed salad, sweet potato roll, a spicy tuna roll and ultra delicious cold, unfiltered saki. All were very tasty and nice quality. Service was good - perfect combination of attentive without being intrusive. What made the experience even better? The price! Dinner with tax and tip was under $30. What a bargain, especially for the quality of food and the location.

We started with a rock shrimp tempura appetizer and then had the sushi and sashimi combo for 2. The sushi tasted fresh, and came in large portions with a wide variety of fish. The restaurant was busy but not too crowded and we were able to get a table immediately. I would recommend this place.

Comment: Happy hour is until 7 but its at the bar only. You can get cocktails for $8 and hot/cold sake or beer for $5. They also have some food specials: certain apps/basic rolls ranging from $5 to $10. Its a pretty solid happy hour menu considering the location by Rockefeller Center. BF and I came on the Friday night before Christmas week at around 6. The restaurant was pretty packed but luckily the bar was not.Cocktails are surprisingly pretty good. Usually at these types of places, they make it too fruity but not at Hama. I really appreciated that. We had a lychee-tini and a sake-tini, and some other blueberry-esque drink with shochu in it, which was also not bad. The rolls we had were pretty standard - crunchy spicy salmon, yellowtail scallion, spicy albacore and big eye tuna roll. Its like takeout sushi but will do the trick if you are craving sushi. The tatsuta age (fried chicken) was suprisingly good - nice and peppery, and perfectly fried.I had actually been wanting to check this place out when I used to work in the area a few years ago, and Im glad I finally did. Was it amazing? No. But like I said, for the neighborhood, I dont think youll find a better deal. (and if you do, let a sister know!)

Comment: I give 4 stars because the waitress was very nice too us, she gave us free miso soup and sake for making us wait too long. The food took forever to come because it was too crowded and they were short staffed. We understood that so waiting was not a big deal to us. However, the food was not very good if I dont want to say its one of the worst sushi Ive ever have. I expect more for the price and the location, but no, they let us down. Sushi was very plain, not fresh, not impressive at all.

We arrived near closing time and were greeted kindly. We werent rushed at all. They offered suggestions on menu items. And they went out of their way to make sure we got everything we wanted. Highly recommend this spot if youre a sushi lover whether youre local or out of state. Its also very clean and elegantly decorated. Easily 5 stars.

Comment: Satisfy your sushi crave on a Friday night near Rockefeller center. The drink menu had an assorted collection of cocktails inspired by asian fruits or Japanese culture. I ordered a Tokyo mojito and bento box c. The mojito itself was sweet and came with freshly crushed mint leaves. The bento box has some edamame, chicken teriyaki, gyozas, California rolls, and sashimi. The set was filling for one person. I only wished that the gyozas and chicken were hot and not just warm.

Comment: Hama is an excellent midtown sushi spot for a proper sit down meal with table service. The dining room is large and decently decorated and I especially like the warm wood tones in the dining room. Your lunch specials here will run from $18 to $30, but you are getting real Japanese style sushi here. Since this is a popular place, show up exactly at 12 noon for lunch or youll end up waiting for a table. Hama is located literally a block away from Rockefeller Center on 51st Street between 5th and 6th Avenues. The crowd here tends to be office workers.

Its also less expensive!The service is great, and the place has been clean every time we visited. You can go and enjoy without any worries!

Exceptionally friendly service. I sat at the sushi bar, ordered one of the combos and then just asked for a couple more combinations to be made by the sushi chef who was just in front of me. He happily complied and was thrilled every time one of his new creations was met with approval. is one of the places I will definitely go back to one my next visit to NYC
