"Itadakimasu" never resonated like it does at this chic bistro. Beijing Hatsune's offspring buzzes with yuppies and expats alike every night of the week as they tuck into delectable Californian-style sushi. It's love at first bite with the Moto-roll-ah and Clayton rolls.

Description

For those who know Hatsune (Beijing), yes, they are finally here in Shanghai! You'll find all your familiar Hatsune favorites: Moto-roll-ah, 119 roll, Engen roll... etc. This is THE place to check out for a different style of Japanese food: we're talking about fun, creative, Californian-style Japanese food.

A sanctuary for the senses There have been many attempts to pair style and substance in recent eateries sprouting around town. Haiku balances both perfectly. Muted colors, concrete architecture, and a gigantic mural splashed a zenful, chic welcome. To start, their signature salad with plum dressing (¥38) was just tangy enough to awaken our taste buds. The assorted sashimi combo (¥158, small) offered fresh, meltin- your-mouth slices that pass the ultimate Japanese restaurant test with flying colors. The Motoroll- ah (¥75) with deep fried spicy tuna, snow crab, maguro, avocado and "secret sauces," left us speechless – and not only because we'd stuffed our mouths full. Needless to say, the batteredto- perfection assorted tempura (¥62) and marinated (for three days!) grilled silver cod (¥68), kept on delighting. We shall be back to dine on the second floor to take advantage of its floor to ceiling windows. Itadakimasu! - Emily Chu

Loved It!! I have dined at Haiku for dinner and lunch and enjoyed myself both times. The food, staff and ambiance are all superior. It reminds me of the Japanese-fusion restaurant I frequent at home in the US. Loved it!!!

This place is packed in Beijing We'll see how they come off in Shanghai against all-you-can-drink/eat joints and really swanky Japanese restaurants

Look out, this one is expanding across the river to Lujiazui. That's right Pudong dwellers, you will have your very own Haiku to call home very soon. But if you still want to come over to ours, we understand.

The 119 roll is frankly, delicious. For those who haven't been here yet, this is a rendition of spicy tuna, and a damn good one. The tuna was of melt-in-your-mouth quality. Definitely, in a word, delish.

Easily some of the best Western-style sushi in Shanghai. The Clayton Roll is a must-try. Packed to the ceiling on the weekends - so make sure you book a table in advance.
