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.

My husband and I had a great dinner at Hapa last night. The service was great and the food was very good (try the ruby red roll and the asparagus tempura roll). We were seated in a booth by the bar which was perfect for the two of us. Our server asked my husband if he is a father (and yes, he is) and the server said Happy Father's Day to him. Overall, a lovely dinner.

Food is delicious as usual. Service was disappointing this time, the waitress was very slow, needed to wait for her for long time. Also, she forgot to add one part of the order, we ended up getting a check without It and, of course, we were about to leave so didn’t ask for it.

We both ordered the HAPA poke bowl, the fish was fresh but the bowl was 7/8 rice and the slaw and kimchi just did not add anything at all to the dish. Poke Moke across the street is so much better
