Service was attentive, friendly and helpful. The General Manager came to our table multiple times and was so awesome. The food was fantastic - familiar favorites with a twist. The chicken karaage is a definite must, bone marrow and beef tongue were amazing. We throughly enjoyed ourselves and the view from patio is great.

We came here for lunch in the middle of the week for a birthday. We’ve never been here and wanted to try it. We really loved all the small plates and sharing that we did. We definitely had enough to eat and everything was delicious. Service was a little slow and few times they forgot to bring stuff, water, soda that was ordered, asked for extra napkins had to ask a couple times sort of thing. There were only two people on staff there however and they were about three or four tables total so they may have been overwhelmed. All in all I think it was a great experience. I would definitely go back. Try the short ribs!

HATCH is a really great secret in The Bloc! Every time I bring someone here they are surprised by the quality of the food and drink and that it's been right here the whole time! The minimal design may look low key and unassuming, but the food is well thought out and the flavors are on point!

This is a great place to visit which is inside Macys Plaza in Downtown. The prices did scare me when compared to other yakitori places I have been to. But when we started receiving our food noticed that we did get more meat compared to the other places. But I do not believe it was equal portions compared to the price. I still feel the other places would be a better option if price was an issue. But givien that Hatch does serve cocktails might be the reason why. Overall I did enjoy my overall experience and the selection offered for both the food and the alcohol

This was my second time at HATCH and unfortunately it wasn't as good as I remembered. The prices went up and some of the food I've had before didn't have the same quality and taste as when I first had it.

Many of the sticks were good I would have to say the Brussels sprouts were not great. They weren’t grilled as much as they had the texture of a steamed Brussels sprout. It was mushy and not appetizing. The pork belly stick was unfortunately dry and a bit over cooked. Hatch is one of those spots I love to go before a movie and will continue to do so. These just happened to be meh.

Nice little find in the Mall next to Macys DTLA. It's grilled meats and veggies which are one or two bites. The bigger plates for sharing like the Black Fried rice was just Ok. We saw people with the grilled short ribs that looked yummy if a little not he fatty side. we had corn (yum), Unagi , Avocado with tuna toast and the tuna was fresh tasting. You don't see Onigiri which is grilled rice balls on menus that often and this one was very tasty sitting in a small pool of dashi. Pickled veg was meh. chicken with green onion great. Service was sweet and friendly but we had to ask for water, an ordered plate came with the bill which wasn't cool but we accepted anyways. Like a lot of restaurants I think they are short staffed so be patient.

Really enjoyed this meal ! We tried the avo tuna toast which was our favorite. The pork ribs were also a standout. We also had the black rice, salmon and bok choy- which were all tasty but I'd probably skip them next time and try other things. Everything that passed by our table looked very good. It felt a bit pricey for what it was - but I would come back.

The food was interesting, most of it tasty, service was good. We really enjoyed the corn fritters, the Hamachi was overly salty, the karage chicken was flavorful. I would pass on the skirt steak, poor cut and preparation. I would definitely skip dining outside, the entire time we were there a person who appeared to be homeless was screaming at the top of his lungs. Additionally, there is a constant flow of people walking around and even through the outdoor table area in order to get to the other side of the mall. Not a pleasant experience for outdoor dining.

Amazing service, delicious food and Ray took such good care of us the night before that I came back with my business partner! Big fan of the seaweed salad (it’s infused with garlic and ginger!), the giant 12in bone marrow with mochi bread and the salmon poke which was so incredibly inventive with shiso and edamame! I’m definitely coming back again when I’m in town!
