Wakamatsu - Hayward

Starting off, food is the definition of AMAZING. We were treated so nicely here, and it took us only 15 minutes to get our food which was a full plate! This place is actually authentic, and small business owned which makes me even happier. I will definitely be coming back here to support and eat the yummy food.

The Chirashi bowl is the best. Thick slices of fish and spiced rice underneath. Authentic Japanese cuisine. Very recommended. Would come here more often when we lived closer.

I love this restaurant so much. Super authentic Japanese food. Where else you will find this great and high quality Chirashi bowl in the Bay Area only costs $20!!! Also the teriyaki and tempura here is very special and you can taste the difference. One more thing, the old couple that owns the restaurant are so nice and especially Joe, he's so beautiful!!

Little mom and pop shop with the freshest sushi in Hayward. Beautiful selection of fish. Would recommend the Lion King or other baked reels, but the boxes and other reels are fantastic.

The best toro, sushi rice and tempura I've ever had. I was in many Japanese restaurants both in Vancouver and Bay Area, which is by far my personal favorite. The taste of each plate is so unique that it clearly takes years to polish. We were so lucky that our last three lunches were at the Bay Area in Wakamatsu. All dishes were far beyond expectations.
