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 that you will find our menu innovative, uninhibited, and distinctly fun! Incomplete parties will not be sat until complete.

    This is a special place for a great meal with friends. Every dish was exquisite, and the shared format made it fun and interesting to try many new flavors. The server was knowledgeable and helpful, and the pacing was leisurely, ensuring that we could savor each dish fully before moving on to the next. I can't wait to go back.

    New Year’s Day is always challenging to find an open restaurant for our anniversary. Staff seemed understandably weary, food and drinks took unusually long time but we couldn’t fault the food quality. At these prices we expect outstanding service and attention to detail but given the timing and challenges facing restaurant businesses we understand.
