Japanese cuisine is not just about food; it’s an entire experience. From preparation and presentation to unique aromas and tastes, there are a lot of factors to be considered when considering what is a great Japanese cuisine experience and what is not. This is why there are only a few restaurants people consider authentically Japanese; the rest are as just so-so.
Of course, the freshness of the ingredients is also a formidable element, which is why a great Japanese restaurant goes to great lengths in making sure that it only serves the best seafood for their sushi dishes, and have high quality meats like chicken, lamb, and beef for their other cooked fare.
For these reasons, I consider Hana Zen Restaurant one of the most sought after dinner places by the bay. When it comes to standards, HanaZen doesn’t only bring it, it comes out on top, and we customers could only be happy for that.
There is no need for a special occasion for you to enjoy a romantic dinner with your special someone that has a really great view of the San Francisco bay. A simple dinner made special because of the restaurant’s ambiance and food quality will give any ordinary night that special oomph. If you are in the Pier 39 area, you should consider their branch at Pier 39, M209, by Beach and Embardadero. This is one restaurant where you can enjoy high quality Japanese cuisine without spending too much, with a breathtaking view to boot.
Being a yakitori restaurant, HanaZen is also a perfect place for those looking for a more casual dining place to unwind after a stressful day at the office. To those who are not so familiar, yakitori is skewered little pieces of meat and vegetables, which are then grilled and basted with a special sauce. The chefs at HanaZen have perfected the art of grilling these special treats to a tee. This is one reason this restaurant is versatile, because you can feast on other Japanese dishes, not just the usual tempura and teriyaki dishes most people end up ordering in Japanese places.
If a dinner at the water front is not your thing and would like a place closer to the city center, you need not fret because you can visit their branch at Union Square along Cyril Magnin Street. You can expect the same high quality of the food to be served to you, be it during lunch or dinner. HanaZen’s Union Square restaurant is also a perfect place to meet up with friends over lunch in between running errands in the city or have dinner with colleagues after a long day at work.
HanaZen is always packed with customers, so calling in advance to reserve a table is recommended. It is best to call early so that you will get the good spot right by the window that looks out into the sea. Their location is perfect and romantic because you have an uninterrupted view of San Francisco Bay, Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz Island. You will surely have a great time having dinner by the bay while enjoying the sublime, calming. For sure, you and you companion(s) will appreciate the food, the place, and the company.
