According to a recent permit filing, Hana Sushi and Izakaya will open another location Downtown at 506 SW 6th Ave Suite #100.
A representative of Hana Sushi and Izakaya was not immediately available for commentary upon What Now Portland’s request.
While an official opening date has yet to be confirmed, according to Hana’s website, there are currently two locations, one in Portland and the other in Corvallis.
Hana Sushi and Izakaya are known for their conveyor belt-style sushi. According to an article from the Albany Democrat-Herald about the Corvallis location, “With conveyor belt sushi, customers sit at a booth and watch their food options slowly revolve by. Instead of reading each item on a menu and picturing how it will taste, guests can see and smell what’s right in front of them.”
“The classy interior of the restaurant, which is equipped with a full bar, sets it apart from other casual eateries on the street, including Cafe Yumm!, Qdoba, and Yogurt Extreme. At Hana Sushi and Izakaya, the dishes are color-coded and correspond with a price: yellow is the cheapest option with a price point of $1.95, and brown is the most expensive at $5.95.”
“While these prices are slightly above what most conveyor belt sushi joints charge, the Zhaos said it is because their quality of fish is also higher than most places. The restaurant seats up to 77 people, and the belt can fit a maximum of 150 dishes. The plates are removed from the belt after three hours to preserve the freshness of the fish.”
