Haru--Serving Modern Japanese Cuisine, Delicious Cocktails in Boston

  • Fine Sake
  • Japanese Fusion Cuisine
  • Stylish Design and Décor

Haru is a modern Japanese restaurant known for its ample portions and striking design, serving inventive Japanese cuisine ranging from sushi and sashimi to creative salads and signature dishes like carpaccios, ceviches, tartares, filet mignon, grilled spicy shrimp and specialty rolls.

Located street level below the Shops at Prudential Center, Haru's 6,100 square foot space is grand--a Japanese garden, bamboo floors and a wooden footbridge make for a serene dining experience. The elegant sushi bar takes pride of place in the dining room along with custom works by local artists, and the cocktail and sake lounge is a great spot to enjoy after-work drinks or late night people-watching.

Editorial Review for Haru – by Gerrish Lopez

In Short
A Japanese garden, bamboo floors, and cherry-wood tables create a cool atmosphere (one that often features electro beats). As far as sushi goes, the food is upscale and artistically presented. Familiar appetizers and entrees (shrimp tempura, cod miso, chicken teriyaki with eggplant and sweet potato) are nicely done. Specialty rolls are fresh, though not entirely unique (the ubiquitous Dice-K roll). An extensive hot and cold sake list is available, as well as traditional desserts such as mochi or green tea ice cream.

Being a lover of both japanese cuisine and contemporary interior design, this place had it all for me. it might be the best looking modern restaurant i've seen in boston. the dimmed lighting is seductive, complimented by frosted glass, glowing bamboo pannels and dark wood floors and tables. I went on a thursday night, it was full but not crazy. i brought a date which was perfect. we had drinks, delicious apps, and a few specialty rolls. the super dynamite roll was INCREDIBLE. Not to mention Junior Seau and a few other PATRIOTS were just a few tables away from me! This is for sure a new hot spot that i will frequent.

Pros: great menu, easy unique options, good portions, amazing decor, professional and personal service. great vibe

Cons: individual sushi ordering was different there. got a little confused by how many rolls i was getting.
