The name Hapa is derived from the Hawaiian term that describes a harmonious blend of Asian and American cultures. Like our name, our food reflects this dynamic combination. The menu is based on traditional Japanese cooking fundamentals which are then amplified, muted, or mixed with influences from many different styles of cooking until they are something completely new: they're Hapa. We have stretched the boundaries of creativity to develop dishes that defy all the rules while holding true to our roots. We hope you will find our menu innovative, uninhibited, and distinctly fun! Incomplete parties will not be sat until complete.

The sashimi special items were good, if a little on the overpriced side. The shishito peppers were tempura fried, and over battered. The spicy tuna crispy rice was over dressed with sauce and came out cold. It was also surprisingly cold inside the restaurant. Personally, I wouldn't eat here again.

The hostess acknowledged my note requesting an intimate setting which put in motion what was to be an exceptional night with my first date. The food is always phenomenal! Our server was outstanding, the food was fresh, and the way that it was presented was outstanding. I'll definitely be back again...I even secured a second date to make the night even more special : ) Thanks for a great evening!

Probably the best quality fish we’d ever had at HAPA. Service on the other hand was incredibly disappointing. We had to constantly ask for things we needed, ie water refills, cocktails, ginger.

Nikki, we are happy to hear you enjoyed the food but we would like to apologize for the service you received. We have shared your review with our team for training purposes to ensure this does not happen again. We hope you give us another try :)
