Early & Late Happy Hour at Hama Sushi



Located on the former Grand Canal in historic Venice Beach, California Hama was founded in 1979 and was one of the first authentic Japanese sushi restaurants in the United States.  A decade ahead of the sushi craze, many Southern California residents can trace their first sushi experience to a table in our restaurant.  Today people from all over the country travel back to Hama to eat at our sushi bar once again.

From our nightly last call theme song, to our birthday traditions, both regulars and first-time guests feel right at home the second they sit down.  Attracting a large and diverse clientele, at Hama you are as likely to have an A-list celebrity seated next to you as you are a local surfer right off the beach.

Hama is also about more than great food and fast and friendly service; it is about treating you, our customers, as honored guests and making your dining experience a cherished memory for years to come.





 EARLY & LATE HAPPY HOUR every night at Hama Sushi  5-7 p.m.  & 10-Close

 DINNER  5-11p.m. (Sunday - Thursday)       5-11:30 p.m. (Friday and Saturday)
