Review of Hatsune
To Sinoscuba, Have you ever even been to a real sushi place in LA? I think not. Clearly you know nothing about LA or the sushi scene in LA.
Having being born and raised in LA, Beef rolled with foie gras has never been on a menu in the true sushi restaurants in LA. Perhaps maybe a teppanyaki place like Benihana for example.
Most good sushi places in LA or SF, does not have menus, does not serve anything but fish or seafood. So there is no Terriyaki, no Tempura, no Udon, no Gyoza.
Typical LA Sushi Places:
Reservations on weekends, weekdays reservations not needed before 5 or after 9.
Go there, get your table, no menus, fixed menu of the freshest fish/seafood of the day. Only things you can order are drinks.
Sit down, light salad comes.
Then the raw seafood comes, if not completely raw, some are lightly seared.
Finish dinner, finish drinks, pay bill and leave.
Complain about anything and you will never be allowed back. And yet these places have lines that stretch around the block with people waiting for hours. These places are far and few in between, a few in LA and one in San Francisco.
You have no tastes Sinoscuba, pity...

Dear Jimmyshoes,
I did not know that the "real sushi places" were in LA.
-I thought sushi was a Japanese, not a Californian thing?
I feel sorry for you, as clearly you must be homesick.
I have not myself been to Hatsune, but would'nt it be really boring if it was just like your favourite sushi place in LA?
As you are in Beijing, and not LA, try to respect the ways that a Beijing sushi restaurant is, rather than just hating and posting bad reviews of a award-winning restaurant, just because it's not like the sushi places you know back home.
it's the first time I have heard some one complaining that there are menu's at the restaurant?
-The menu gives you the option of experiencing new things, and not just eating what everybody else is having.
In Hatsune's defense, I have eaten sushi in more than 10 european cities and all the restaurants have had menus - maybe it's the LA sushi joints that have the wrong concept, and not the Beijing sushi restaurants, or the sushi places of the rest of the world for that matter.
I don't mean to be offending in any way, but if you don't like to experience new things, and even small things like how a sushi restaurant works, -maybe you should have stayed in L.A. .
You have no tastes Jimmyshoes, pity...

To DD,
Before you rant anymore, kindly do some more reading before you contaminate the world with your vitriol.
Your reply has got to be the most retarded and lame response I have seen in a long time. Obviously reading comprehension is not your strong point.
If you had read the previous poster's review, you will notice my comments were a retort to their claims of LA sushi scene. Im glad you have eaten all over Europe, their economy needs retards such as yourself to support it. Mayhaps you should stay in the EU.
The world is now dumber because of your rant. May god have mercy on your soul...
