Good food, no doubt.
Every single dish was presented in an elegant way.
My only complaint would be the length… After all 4 hours was a bit long for a meal.

Worth it! Probably the best restaurant I have ever been to. The chef is an artist. He’s a poet. He’s very skilled in his profession. The personalized touches he adds to the restaurant like artwork makes this place so much more appreciated. The food was gastronomical, tasty, creative and so perfect! We loved our experience here. Sake pairing was amazing! If you have the chance, this is 100% worth it. We were SO full at the end we could barely breathe!

I was half expecting to see edible gold foil, caviar, and foie gras at Hajime, but what we got was an incredible, artistic, culinary experience. (Note: there was foie gras.)

Many of the dishes interacted/played with our senses. The most notable one for me was The Evening Shower, where I was given a leaf that held grapefruit and yuzu jelly. The service was mostly excellent. My only wish was that the sommelier could spend a bit more time explaining the wine pairing to us. There were a few times when it felt rushed, or he simply didn't have time to explain the wine to us because the next course was about to be served.

Overall, we had a lovely meal at Hajime. Thank you, Chef Yoneda and team!

Hajime is one of the top restaurants my partner and I have been to. We travel the world and always make it a point to go to 3 Michelin-starred restaurants, and to say this was, by far, our favorite, would be an understatement. The atmosphere is moody and romantic. The service staff is absolutely exceptional. Each individual goes above and beyond to make sure you're enjoying your stay. The menu was so delicious and intentional. Each menu title corresponded perfectly with its meal. My husband and I are celebrating our honeymoon with 3 weeks in Japan and to say the staff went out of their way to show us love would be an understatement. We will 100% be coming back, and will recommend to any and every person to make a trip to Osaka just to come to Hajime.

Thank you, Hajime, and Etsu (our server extraordinaire) for making this my favorite dining experience!!! And thank you for getting us out quickly and safely, when we almost missed our train back to Kyoto.

ハジメ

Wonderful experience at Hajime, a 3-star Michelin restaurant. It's one of the most stunning restaurants I've been to, and the lighting is dim. Seats were very comfortable and the team was so friendly and kind. The hospitality was wonderful. It is a very intimate restaurant with only 6-8 tables. The meal is on the longer side and was around 4.5 hours. The meal takes you on a journey through the different elements of our world and it is such a beautiful experience. Each dish is a work of art and tasted as good as it looked. Their signature dish uses over 80 vegetables and was packed with flavor. The meal was well balanced between vegetables, meats, seafood, and sweets. My favorite course was the cheese course, which had a crazy variety of textures that worked so well together. I got the alcoholic drink pairing and each pairing complemented the food so well. The rose was unique and had a crazy smoky flavor going on that was delicious. I also enjoyed the aged sake quite a bit. The hospitality of the team at Hajime was absolutely incredible. You can tell that there is a lot of passion for what they do. They had offered to arrange for a taxi. When we left it was raining outside so they gave us two umbrellas which was so thoughtful and really above and beyond expectations. They also sent us home with a jar of tea jam that I can't wait to try. Would definitely recommend dining at Hajime if you get the chance -- it's now my partner's favorite meal of all time! It reminds me of Alinea, but I enjoyed this more.

My fiancé and I reserved dinner here to celebrate our engagement, and I've never had a more immersive, magical experience. When you arrive for your reservation, you are seated in an intimate welcome area while they prep your table. An attendant checks in on you occasionally to see if you need anything, like taking your coat or purse or escorting you to the washroom (which was immaculate, by the way). When we were finally seated, we were given a brief overview of the restaurant and Chef Hajime's vision for the experience, and a sommelier also introduces the wine options and optional tasting menu. There was both an alcoholic and non-alcoholic tasting menu available, and I so badly wanted to try the non-alcoholic tasting menu, but refrained this time. Maybe someday! The attention to detail both in food preparation and hospitality is world class. No detail was spared, from the subtle garnish designs to the flavor combinations. And it's almost like the staff could read our minds! If I wanted to wash my hands, someone was by my side within a literal second to help me out of my chair. I would return to my dinner napkin refolded by my plate in an artistic way. If I dropped a spoon or needed water, I would be attended to in the blink of an eye. Japan has always been known for their excellence in respect and service, but this was just on a totally new level. Although there was a lot of pomp and circumstance, the service still felt earnest and genuine without being overbearing. I could wax poetically about each individual food item at this point, but I think this would make my already too-long review even longer. And since the restaurant operates on seasonal ingredients, the offerings will very likely change soon anyway. While the food was outstanding, the things that made this experience worth every penny was the eating experience coupled with the incredible service. I will mention that at the end, they gifted us an extra chocolate course to congratulate us on our engagement. We also ended up being the final diners in the building, so after our meal, the entire staff gathered to talk to us and introduced us to Chef Hajime himself. We were gifted with even more goodies, including a bouquet of flowers and a jar of homemade tea jam. It was so nice of them and felt so personable, and made the experience feel very worth the steep price. I felt glad to know that every penny was going to these wonderful people and their endeavor to source good quality ingredients. I hope to come back someday! - Ambiance: 5/5 - Food: 5/5 - Service: 100/5

What else is there to say about Hajime? Three Michelin starred chef Hajime-San whose restaurant is also voted as a top 50 restaurant in all of Asia. We enjoyed the course dinner here with alcohol pairing and it truly was a once in a lifetime type experience. The flavors, presentation and service were outstanding and well deserved of its lofty rating. The one word that came to mind was "immersive" as the lighting and ambience here really help you focus on the presentation of the food (and naturally the guest sitting across from you). A couple of the favorite dishes of ours were the "chikyu" signature course with 100 different vegetables and "iso rocky coast" with an assortment of seafood. As it was a wedding anniversary dinner for us - the staff prepared a special dessert, small gift and flowers ahead of time. Wonderful touch from a world class restaurant!

I can only say the best things for this restaurant! Topnotch delicious food, beautiful presentations, and the best hospitality from each staff member and Mr. Hajime Yoneda himself which we met at the end of the dinner! I would go back to Osaka in a heartbeat just for this experience! Arigato Gozaimasu Hajime team and thank you for making our Osaka trip memorable :)

This was literally the best meal I had in Japan and honestly in my entire life, Arigatou gozaimasu, Hajime-San.

It was a cheat to foreign tourists -- as they purposely overcharged dishes (though the prices are written in black and white). Worse yet, after I found out their cheat on prices and the tricks, their waiter immediately turned into a horrible/threatening face !!

This was one of the most anticipated meals of my Japan vacation. Online booking was swift and informative. Not knowing English was not a barrier as they were extremely accommodating and had fluent speaking English people. Arrived to be greeted outside of the restaurant which we were then taken to our seats. Each course transitioned from one to the next elegantly with servers serving the food with white gloves with a designated server explaining the dish along with the drinks. Words would not do this restaurant any justice as it's an experience for the eyes, nose, and mouth. Loved that chef Hajime Yoneda himself came out at the end of service to chat and to also get a photo. Pictures were not allowed which was a shame as each dish was a piece of art itself.

Michelin 3 Stars Chef Hajime Yoneda guides us to have conversations with the Earth through his courses, which he masterly executed...my love and I engaged in this conversation on October 18, 2018! As we were just arriving, one of the staff members opened the glass door, and seeing we were about to take a selfie, he offered and took a picture for us outside, before leading us in to an intimate arrival area. There are 7 two top tables, covered with white linen. Decor is minimalistic and elegant, letting every dishes shine in their own color. We were politely asked not to take pictures or videos, so we can concentrate and fully enjoy our dinner. Each course has a driven theme and result. Chef Hajime brought together a vast array of ingredients from the Earth's surface in harmony... The staff shared Chef's intensions and Chef elaborated on the menu for us. My heart stopped often and speed up alike at the sheer beauty of the courses. I wish to come back sooner than soon and would put Hajime on my very top of list. I wouldn't expect this experience from a French restaurant. Nor would I from a Japanese restaurant, but from begining to farewell, it was absolutely unforgettable experience. Thank you!!! -2018 review #23-

This was a really memorable, special dining experience. Our tasting menu consisted of 16 delicious, beautifully presented dishes. The service was exceptional from (the very) beginning to end. I submitted a form for reservations online, and the notification was sent to my junk mail box; I then asked our hotel concierge to make reservations on our behalf 2 weeks prior to dinner. After realizing we had two reservations, I called and host was very polite and patient, helping to make corrections to our reservation; my lack of Japanese was not an issue. We arrived 10 minutes before dinner, and we were warmly greeted by a gentleman who would later also be our server. The environment was very comfortable, warm, and unpretentious. My husband didn't pack a jacket, so I was concerned about violating the dress code, but there were no issues with his blazer cardigan--he was not required to keep it on during dinner. There are 7-8 tables which are spread out, so it was easy to have a quiet, intimate dinner. Pictures were not allowed. I believe there are 3 tasting menus, and we opted for the standard menu which consisted of 16 dishes. Every dish was like a piece of art; from one dish to the next, we never knew what to expect, and we were surprised and delighted each time. There is so much attention to timing and detail; our server explained each dish to us, and he and the rest of the staff were extremely attentive. By the end of our meal, we were so, so full. Our server walked us out the door and sent us off with a parting gift. This 3 hour experience was like a dream, and we look forward to dining here again the next time we're in Japan. The total for two standard tasting menu and 3 glasses of champagne came out to about ¥93000 ($860).

Last week while in Japan I was able to bribe my way in for dinner. The standard tasting menu was delicious on last trip to Japan, presentation was amazing and food was unique. The few times I've been here service was outstanding, hence on this trip the chef created a special deluxe tasting menu for the two of us at a cost of $1,200 USD. I loved the experience, food and service. My platonic friend and I expected something amazing and orgasmic, it was great but not orgasmic and why only 4 stars. I'm looking forward to next visit and an orgasmic like meal, maybe chef will deliver outstanding meal or menu for $1500-$2000?
