Restaurant: Hachi’s Kitchen
Location: 2521 N. California


Hachi’s primarily serves Sushi. Sushi is Japanese. I turn Japanese in the shower several times a week. Since we clearly have so much in common, I thought I’d honor Hachi’s in the form of Haikus, which also just happen to be Japanese.


Sushi that tastes fresh.
Nothing fishy on my plate.
Great Logan Square spot.


Cool outdoor seating.
Inside lounge is also cool.
Cool as in dope, fresh.


We order Maki
But there are other entrees.
They might be good. Maybe.


Fried dumplings so good.
Dipping sauce the perfect touch.
I ate two orders.


California roll.
Always a solid option.
But nothing special.


Crazy roll is huge.
Even I couldn’t eat it.
Had to cut in half.


Fashion roll looked good.
It tasted even better.
It’s a roll model.


Soft shell crab maki.
Also known as the “Spider”.
I don’t like spitters.


Negi hanachi.
Yellow tail fish with scallions.
Just disappointing.


Spicy tuna…yum
Everyone liked this great roll.
Like-like, as in love.


Volcano erupts.
Like me in the hot shower
Turning Japanese.


But seriously,
Volcano wasn’t spicy.
Still enjoyable.


Spicy taco roll.
Sounds dirty, tasted awesome.
My fav roll (shocker).


Rolls were really cheap.
Each was about six dollars.
Some were even less.


Owner is from Sai.
“Hachi” is “bee” in Japan.
Owner is Jim Bee.


Not as good as Coast.
Fist bump with manly ass slap.
I like it a lot.
