Japanese cuisine Hatanaka

We serve sushi made with locally caught fish from the Hokuriku region, along with dishes inspired by the personal roots of our chef and staff.

Two course options are available. Please let us know your preference when making a reservation.

Our drink selection features Junmai sake from various regions and natural wines, chosen based on what we truly enjoy. While we do not offer formal pairings, we are happy to recommend drinks to enjoy alongside your meal.

With friendly service and a casual interior, we aim to create a comfortable and welcoming space rather than a formal dining experience. Please feel free to visit in relaxed attire.

It’s only 3 minutes on foot from JR Kanazawa station. We renovated the Machiya building (old Japanese-style house) built in 1940s.

Counter seats: 10 persons
Table seats: 16 persons

Japanese cuisine Hatanaka is listed in the Michelin Guide Hokuriku 2021.

Our team

Hatanaka is a sushi and Japanese cuisine restaurant, which opened its doors in April of 2019.

While we strive to make our restaurant successful, we also see our work as a way to share the values and ideas we truly believe in.

Our guiding principle is to create a sustainable cycle in which everyone involved — diners, producers, the people who work here, and the planet — can be happy over the long term.

From January 2026, Hatanaka transitioned to a lunch-only restaurant.
After the owner, Hatanaka, gave birth, she stepped away from day-to-day operations in order to balance childcare and work. While this was a choice she could make as an owner, many restaurant staff do not have the same flexibility once they have children. With this in mind, we decided to shift to daytime operations so that staff with children, as well as women chefs who may have given up working in restaurants due to childbirth, can continue their careers without having to leave the industry.

We hope to be a place where guests can enjoy delicious sushi at a relaxed pace during the day, have a drink if they wish, and spend a truly good afternoon.
