Hamasato Japanese Restaurant in Santa Maria

Great food and service. Highly recommend. Tempura, miso soup, California roll, bean sprouts salad, gyoza, bowl of rice and hot tea. All this for under $10 during their lunch special.

I have been coming here for years. For as long as I can remeber. It is always fabulous food and great service. Very reasonably priced. I love this place.

I've been coming here for years and never disappointed. Amazing food, friendly welcoming staff, i subtract one star because it needs updating, good scrub and dusting.

the food there is the best

Love the grill! Always good food and great service!

Food is amazing, and people are really friendly

My favorite restaurant!

Love the food

Not happy with lunch today...not happy at all! First, if your restaurant opens at 11:30am, the it should be ready to go with all itemsix on the menu. Today, no California Roll lunch special because the rice wasn't ready. Second choice was Miroslav Soto...the Tempura was horribly greasy and under cooked. We've loved this place and have been coming here for over three years...it will be a long time before we return. 😢😢😢

The Tappon room is awesome

I can't tell you how much I enjoyed eating here. The food, the service, the atmosphere- it was all spectacular! It brought back so many memories of my trip to Japan. I will definately be coming back with family and friends!

Great once the cook got started.

Best sushi in town as far as I'm concerned!

One of the original and best authentic Japanese cuisine restaurants in the Santa Maria area. My personal favorite and top recommendation!

Always a delicious meal. Only available for take out because of Covid but they will take phone in and walk in orders. The service was fast and friendly. For a top notch sushi restaurant the prices are very reasonable. I have been a frequent customer for over a decade.

Traditional Japanese restaurant, servers in traditional Japanese costumes nice touch. Tepan grills, sushi bar, table service.Hidden in a strip mall!

Very relaxing atmosphere when I went for lunch with a friend. The service was great and everything we got was delicious.

Love the firecracker roll! Sushi chef Yoshi is sometimes entertaining if you sit at sushi counter.

My friend and I recently had dinner there. I ordered the chicken katsu dinner. My friend ordered salmon sushi and spicy tuna sushi. The food was delicious and the waitress was friendly and nice. We felt very welcomed.

I'm a big fan of Japanese food and I've been to several Japanese restaurants in the area. Out of all of them I must say that I like Hamasato the most. They have the best miso soup in my opinion. Yoshi (owner) and his staff are always very friendly and welcoming. Great atmosphere.

Go there frequently. Always consistently good. Great service. Very friendly.

More traditional and even better with pricing than any other Japanese restaurant here!! Never disappointed. Love love LOVE IT!

The Hot dawg roll was the BOMB! 😎😇👌🇨🇭😝😍😋

Great food and excellent service. And very reasonable prices.

Had the sushi plate. It looked very good, it was fresh and delicious.

Love this place!!Been coming here for over 20yrs and never been dissapointed!!Great food and awsome service!!Thanks Hama Sato!!

We wanted to have dinner with our family at a slightly different cuisine than the normal way to go. Someone said Japanese and were were ready to go. This restaurant is at the end of a one story mall so is not congested with ample parking. We were greeted as soon as we entered and seated. They have a great selection on their menu and the service was fast. The good tasted great as well as our company sharing this enjoyable time. Check it, take someone, and enjoy!

The service was very good. It is a comfortable space. The dinner for 4 included a little cup of what was called vegetable stir fry. We were then served a huge plate of tempura, mostly starch, soggy with oil. Then a plate with strips of tough beef and tender chicken, swimming in teriyaki. I also had 2 orders of sushi which was quite good, though smaller cuts than most places.

Food is always really good the only problem is I feel that the restaurant needs to be updated

After a million times comingo here we finally brought the whole gang and rented one of the private rooms where you sit on the floor. Kids had a great time! Food is always great, service too.

Great! The Best Sushi in Town.

I love this place because I always have a great services,and they know what I want.

Not enough staff to handle large party.

It's always a pleasing experience.

Overpriced seemingly low quality meats. Really good sushi

Been going there for years. Great fresh Japanese cuisine

Japanese food here - delicious. everyone at our table was enjoying everything. the staff was sociable and attentive.

The food and atmosphere is welcoming. The prices for the dishes are reasonable. The sashimi is fresh and yummy. The Teppanyaki was not open though.

Great Don Katsu. The best ive had. They put it in a bowl and cook an egg over plus add green onions. A great value. Service was excellent. I'll be back.

Quick and friendly service

Hidden gem. Great service and fantastic sushi. Will be back again.

The best Teppon Grill around!

Authentic Japanese food and great service,never disappointed thank you.

excellent food, very good service and nice atmosphere! absolute enjoyable dinner!!

Excellent....

Food is alright.

Wonderful food and service

Kids #1 choice for birthday dinners!

I visit Hamasato at least once a week, on my lunch break. It is by far my favorite place to go! The pros list is endless- tons of food for the money, healthy, delicious, very friendly service, quick turnaround. Great, relatively unknown place- for lunch, that is. The dinner service is another great animal of its own. Once I visit for dinner, I will update this review! For now however, do not hesitate to come here for lunch!

Amazing as always!!! Awesome food and service
