Hito is my new favorite place in Las Palmas - I can't believe its taken me 4 years to eat here!! Absolutely outstanding restaurant that delivers top-quality food and excellent service. Every dish is beautifully prepared, fresh, and full of flavor - especially the sushi and sashimi, which are among the best in Las Palmas. My personal favorites were the gyozas, the tuna tartar dish (Maguro No Tarutaru I believe) and the Hot Sushi Volcano Roll - so delicate and tasty and just amazing!! The menu has a refined balance of Japanese and modern influences, showing real attention to detail and care in the ingredients. The atmosphere is calm and elegant, and the staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive without being intrusive. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates great food and a polished dining experience. I will definitely be returning often!

Excellent sushi restaurant near Las Canteras beach. We did get a table without a reservation at lunch time. Service was friendly and professional. Dishes were from excellent to good as it is usual in any excellent level restaurants because tastes differ. We will visit again whenever we are around! Itadakimasu!

The best sushi in Las Palmas (imo). Unbelievably fresh fish, rice is perfect, and rolls are well put together Only underwhelming one was the fatty tuna nigiri- was nothing special

No. 004

We ordered the variety sushi platter with 30+ pieces which was well worth it, lots of variety. Each piece tasted different. Presentation was beautiful too. Only mistake was not knowing we could order a larger portion of sake for a much better price; we ordered a small then a medium, should havwe just ordered the large. Dessert (friend ice cream) was the cherry on top! We reserved via messenger so no wait.

Waouw style Japanese restaurant ! I know lot’s of sushi restaurants in Brussels, I like Japanese food ! I can tell that this place is above average, very tasty and very good fish quality ! The edemame were nicely cooked and a pleasant salmon tartare style starter was offered ! Price is above average here but we are talking about top quality !

No. 006

Very nice sushi, we had a lovely visit! Bit expensive though (for example for almost 10 euro for a wakame salad as a starter..?). But for sushi with good and fresh taste and just the right amount of rice, it was allright price. One small minus comes from the wasabi, it was not that strong as it should be.

Very good and fresh sushi! We were never disappointed. Prices are also ok for sushi places, food is always fresh. Place is quite small, but we never had a problem getting a table. They also make reservations.

On the top of the Sushi places in Europe. You even get a certificate of where the tuna comes from and that it is sustainable. Wonderful experience.

Very good sushi👌 probably my top 3 in Las Palmas. I liked tempura prawns also

No. 013

Not too shabby! Good service. The Toro sashimi was very fresh. Good gyozas. Clean restaurant. They offer Japanese beer too.

No. 014

Sushimi and Yakitori was quite good, sushi was truly average, not terribly exciting and uninspiring. Mediocre restaurant to say the least.

No. 015

Unfortunately, while the price is quite high, the sushi is far from the best. Several times our sushi was served burned (with blackened rice), and the rice itself was not properly cooked / pressed. On top of that, the so-called Japanese welcome felt just as inauthentic as the sushi.

No. 016

Not a tourist trap. Fancy, expensive, quality. Not for having a beer but to having delicious dinner.

The best sushi what i have ate so far! Staff extremely friendly. One of the best restaurants in las palmas so far and i have tried quite many in ten years. Highly recommend!

No. 018

Excellent Japanese food. I was impressed the first couple of times I came here some years ago, and my expectations were exceeded once again when we recently decided to make a new visit. Our favorite this time was the New Maduro Roll with tuna tartar, but everything was great, including the incredibly tasty mochi for desert. In the past I've also had some excellent tuna tataki here. Friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere. Highly recommended!

No. 019

The best sushi in Las Palmas! Everything was super fresh and really tasty. Staff are very attentive and knowledgeable. It really adds to the ambience to see the Sushi chefs working away in the open-plan kitchen.

Amazing vegetation sushi menu and platter! Considering the island is not vegetarian friendly this restaurant is the best meal that we had on our holiday. So a big thank you! Loved the story in the menu made the experience extremely special!

Excellent! Exactly how quality sushi is supposed to be. Best quality fish in small pieces on just enough rice. This place could be in London, NY, Beijing or Berlin. Attractive presentation, friendly staff. I'LL BE BACK ...

No. 023

Absolutely superb food, service, and ambiance. The menu includes a variety of traditional Japanese and fusion dishes. We had the mixed tempura, gyoza two style salmon sliced thinly, ikura, the spicey tuna with avocado roll, and all were delicious. We'd also highly recommend the ice cream tempura for desert. The service was friendly and excellent .

No. 024

If I only could use one word to describe Hito, it would be OVERPRICED. The food was good. The quality was good. Still, I find the price wasn't justifiable. You can get similar quality at more reasonable prices in Fuji. You can get decent quality and quantity in Genxi Sushi. Ok, the sushi is the right size, you can put the whole piece in your mouth, but there could be more pieces per portion, couldn't there? We didn't have neither wine nor coffee nor dessert, and neither did we have toro and still, the bill was €40 per person. And we weren't stuffing ourselves. The Pad Thai was a disappointment. It came with too much liquid (this isn't a soupy dish!) and the peanuts weren't crushed. The taste wasn't too bad, but it's a far cry from being authentic and certainly, there wasn't anything authentic about the price! Especially when considering that this is originally a humble peasant dish! Sadly to say, this won't be a place I'd be rushing back anytime soon.

Probably the best sushi I've ever eaten world wide. Staff were excellent, sushi was authentic. Thanks to the Irish Rover, Conor for you're recommend. The nicest meal we have had in Gran Canaria 👍 …

No. 026

The food was good and the prices okay for the location, which is very near the beach. The waitress was a bit pushy but she redeemed herself by recommending a very good Unagi roll to share. It was delicious. Would I go again? Probably.

No. 027

Sushi plate looked beautiful but tasted under average. Some fish, the tuna, didn't seem as fresh as it should be. And the eel was awful. When telling the waitress she ignored it and just asked if we wanted anything more. Too expensive too.

No. 028

Honestly the best sushi I’ve had in my life! Very authentic with a touch of fusion! I’ve traveled all over the world and can honestly say this is THE best sushi I’ve ever tasted! Would give 10 stars if I could! Professional service and great views too!

No. 029

By far the best sushi in las palmas. Fresh fish and you are told exactly where the tuna comes from. They are in a partnership with a tuna company that sources tuna in a humane way and tracks your fish throughout the whole process. Definitely come here. Do not miss this place if you like great sushi.

No. 030

Not only centered location but also great service, homy atmosphere and 100% fresh and delicious food of all kind makes this place my place in Las Palmas. Recommend to meat lovers, sushi lovers, vegetarians and vegans. This is a must when in Gran Canaria

Really like the drunken style noodles. The food is very fresh. Definitely a hole in the wall spot. The thom ka is great and they really have a good presentation for the large size.

No. 032

As an asian I am quite picky with Japanese food. But Hito has exceeded my expectation. They use the fresh ingredients for their sushi and sashimi, and they also have creative menus such as apple gyozas and paper rolls. The cuisine there can be categorised as japanese but also european fusion. I'd go there again for the quality and variety.

No. 033

Probably the best Japanese restaurant in Gran Canaria. The food is prepared following the Japanese cousine and the ingredients are fresh and tasty. You can't miss their tuna sashimi (toro) simply spectacular!

I celebrated my birthday at Hito and it was a wonderful experience. The food was spectacular, with fresh sushi and dishes prepared with great care. The atmosphere was pleasant and welcoming, perfect for enjoying a special occasion. The staff was very attentive and contributed to making the celebration even more enjoyable. Without a doubt, it's a place I would recommend for celebrating a birthday or any important moment, thanks to the presence of friends and Daphne, a super beautiful girl full of positive energy… ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I'll definitely be back! 🎂🍣✨

After several years away, we returned to Restaurante Hito and loved it just as much as the first time. We hadn't stopped going for any particular reason; it had simply been a while since our last visit, and returning was a great decision. The food was absolutely delicious, flavorful, and authentic. We ordered quite a few dishes, even requesting several ingredient variations, and the waitress was incredible: she managed to memorize everything without writing anything down, and there wasn't a single mistake. The staff was very friendly and attentive throughout the entire meal. The atmosphere is also very pleasant. It's located on a side street off Las Canteras Avenue, in a quiet area, and although we dined in the covered section, it was very comfortable. We will definitely be back much sooner this time.

No. 059

It was already one of my favorite places and I often order delivery. But we showed up on Three Kings' Day without a reservation and ended up having a wonderful meal for four people! Hito is such a treat. The waitress is fantastic. Thank you so much again. We hope to return very soon!

No. 060

We've been several times and, as always, it's a sure bet! It never disappoints! All the staff who served us were incredibly friendly! And the food was absolutely delicious! The atmosphere was so peaceful and welcoming! What a great way to start the weekend!

No. 061

I've experienced the magic of this restaurant about four times throughout its history as a temple of Japanese gastronomy. The quality has remained consistent all these years, but this last time the service was somewhat slow and confusing. We noticed too many takeout orders and a lack of attention to the diners in the dining room. There was slowness and they forgot about dishes we ordered. Losing the essence and neglecting what's important diminishes quality.

No. 062

The nigiri were the best part of the whole meal: the shiromi, toro, hotate with truffle, and sakana were spectacular, very fresh, and incredibly flavorful. We also ordered the Tuna Crunchy Roll and the Sake Ebi Roll, which were very good. One thing I loved was that the wasabi and ginger were natural, none of that artificial green supermarket paste. You can really taste the difference. The atmosphere is very well done and has a bit of a Japanese feel, and the waiters were super friendly at all times. The menu also has interesting details about eating sushi and Japanese culture, which is cool. The only downside is that the menu states that the IGIC (Canary Islands General Indirect Tax) is not included, which I think is even illegal, and it's not mentioned on the daily specials menu either. There are also some discrepancies in prices between the menus, which makes me a bit uneasy and added about €5 to the bill.

No. 063

Everything was great at the restaurant. The staff were very attentive, and I appreciated that they brought everything out in an organized and relaxed manner, giving us time to enjoy our food at a leisurely pace. As a suggestion, I would have liked a Japanese tea to finish, but even so, it's highly recommended. I left very satisfied.

No. 064

Great flavor, beautiful presentation, and good service. We really enjoyed it. Everything was delicious! You can order half portions of several dishes if you like a good variety. We'll definitely be back. It's moderately priced, but worth it. Update with photos from September 15th, and as I said, everything was fantastic and very good.

No. 065

9/10! Definitely in the top 3 best sushi restaurants on the island. We loved it! Every bite was a delight, so much flavor. We'll be back; you have to try it if you like sushi. The waitress recommended the dessert, and we absolutely loved it (10/10).

It was a pleasure having lunch at this restaurant. There were four of us, so we were able to order a wide variety of dishes, and I loved everything. The flavors were incredible, and the tuna tartare was exquisite. For a special occasion, and if you like Japanese food, you should definitely add it to your list.

No. 068

I loved it. The quality of everything was incredible. I went in blind, based on recommendations, and it was a delicious dinner. I wish I'd ordered the tuna tataki, but it was very good.

No. 069

The best value sushi in the Canary Islands, the salmon tartare is spectacular, the seared scallop nigiri is a 10/10, and the netto roll is definitely worth ordering again. Congratulations on your work and the quality of your products. I'm not giving the ambiance another 5 stars because, unfortunately, the noise from the restaurant across the street somewhat ruins the experience. Perhaps you should consider improving the soundproofing in the dining area.

My favorite sushi restaurant in Las Palmas!!! The staff's service is impeccable, they are very helpful and often give recommendations, the atmosphere and of course the food, I love it every time I go.

No. 071

The best sushi in Gran Canaria. We've tried most of their sushi menu over the last two years, and they consistently maintain a very high level of excellence in presentation, taste, and the quality of their ingredients (nigiri, sashimi, futomaki, etc.). Since the pandemic, we've always ordered delivery, and they've kept up their high standards. Yesterday, we picked up our order at their restaurant, where they served us with the same friendly and attentive service as always. They even gave us several pieces free of charge after a mix-up with our order, a thoughtful touch that speaks volumes about their commitment to quality. We highly recommend eating here; it's a true delight for the senses.

No. 072

Authentic Japanese cuisine in a beautiful setting. During our Gran Canaria vacation, we ended up in Las Palmas this time. We discovered this restaurant by chance (it's located in a small alley near Playa de las Canteras). The waitress was incredibly friendly, attentive, and competent. Absolutely delightful! The food was excellent, beautifully presented, and of exceptional quality. We highly recommend Hito! If we could, we'd give it 10 stars. THANK YOU!

No. 073

Excellent dinner with gyoza, teriyaki chicken skewers, mixed sashimi, and pineapple ice cream tempura. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented, and the sashimi was excellent! The place was modern and welcoming, with perfect service. I'll definitely be back.

It's a great pleasure to reconnect with an old friend and mentor... from one sushi chef to another: "My respects." The sushi preparation was excellent, the product quality was top-notch, and the flavors and textures were incredible. The service and the ambiance of the restaurant were also excellent.

No. 075

I went to the restaurant with little to no conviction: what a mistake! I've been delighted every time I've been. The ingredients are excellent, and the culinary ideas are equally impressive. The service is equally fantastic and not at all intrusive. Finally, the atmosphere is peaceful and quiet. I've been back and will continue to return. I don't recall if they have a list of restrictions for people with allergies and intolerances posted. It's very important to be aware of them. A follow-up clarification regarding allergies: I went again, and when we ordered a special dish, the chef (Oliver) asked if we had any allergies, so they should definitely take them into account. 02/08/23 I returned tonight. It continues to be a superb option. Don't miss it. On subsequent visits (the last one, 30/08/23), the level of quality remains high. Excellent!

No. 076

Good value for money. I recommend the eel nigiri. The mochi was a bit small. Overall, everything was very good, as was the service from the waitresses. Recommended.

We love it, we go whenever we can, it's wonderful, the service, the atmosphere and the food are spectacular.

No. 078

It used to be my favorite Japanese restaurant, but I think it's gone downhill a bit. The wakame salad was the typical frozen seaweed kind; there wasn't a trace of actual wakame. Everything was very salty. That said, the sushi is still spectacular. It's not cheap, and they have things they could improve.

No. 079

The sashimi (salmon, shrimp stuffed with flying fish roe, scallops, tuna, fatty tuna, and seared white fish) was all delicious, and the garnishes and daikon radish garnish were nice. The vegetable tempura, probably made with rice noodles, seemed to be bulked up considerably. The tempura itself was crispy, but the batter lacked flavor, and the tempura sauce wasn't sweet enough for me. I ordered rice as a side dish, but it was hard and dry, and it got worse and worse over time. The rice in the cucumber rolls and nigiri sushi was delicious, unlike the side dishes. I asked about the type of sake, but they only said sake, so I wish they had explained it a little more.

No. 080

A highly acclaimed Japanese restaurant in Gran Canaria, and deservedly so. As you can see from the photos, they have a very extensive menu, with a particularly impressive variety of sushi. Since it was our first time, that's what we went to try, and it didn't disappoint. Besides the tuna tartare (in my top 3 on the island), we sampled a wide variety of sushi, especially the hot sushi reef roll and the uramaki netto roll. The quality is undeniable, although the prices are a bit high. However, it's highly recommended for a special occasion. For a sweet treat, the dorayaki is delicious and a different kind of dessert than what you usually find in other restaurants. It's definitely worth trying. We'll be back.

No. 081

The food was excellent. But for €15 a plate, I'd like to also have a good wine, not some supermarket brand. If I'm going to spend money on food, I'd also like to have a drink that isn't beer or soda. Just a small suggestion.

No. 082

Everything was delicious. It's one of those places where you can order with your eyes closed and be sure to get it right. In our case, we were served by Guayedra, whom we trusted to choose our dishes, and the experience and service couldn't have been better!

No. 083

The staff were fantastic, friendly, and efficient. The mixed sashimi was absolutely fabulous, and the crispy tuna maki (house recipe) was delicious 😋. They also gave excellent wine recommendations. The price-quality ratio is typical for a Japanese restaurant. A place I highly recommend! …

The service was excellent; they gave great advice on portion sizes, variety, and how to pair dishes. The tuna they use comes with a tracking and traceability label. Impressive, and they're committed to the environment. Oh, and by the way! Don't, under any circumstances, miss the dessert... Simply spectacular. Homemade desserts, made with love. Seriously, if you're in the area and craving Japanese food, this is the place for you.

A restaurant with a wide variety of dishes, excellent quality, and great prices. Definitely a place to recommend; the service is very attentive.

No. 086

A small, secluded place on a side street off Cantera. The decor is simple, but with a distinct Japanese feel. The dishes are presented simply, without any ostentation. But the quality pleasantly surprised me. Typical Japanese portions, with nigiri made more of fish than rice. Sashimi is generous, with excellent cuts (including a fatty, juicy tuna belly). The miso is good, and the tempura is excellent, crispy and light. The prices, while not low, are a reflection of the clearly high-quality ingredients, not least the wasabi made with real wasabi root... I'm told. The Japanese beer list needs to be expanded (Sapporo, for example, is missing).

No. 087

This place serves real sushi. The attention to detail is delightful. The food is beautifully presented and delicious! They also have a good wine list.

A cozy and charming Japanese restaurant. The quality matches the price. The wasabi is natural, not powdered, which was a pleasant surprise! The chef has an imaginative mind :) We had sushi and sashimi, and the fish was very fresh and full of flavor!

"It's our go-to place; we return whenever we can, and it never disappoints. What makes this place special, beyond the food, is the personal touch: everyone greets you at once when you walk in. The two women who always serve us, besides their excellent recommendations and outstanding professionalism, make you feel right at home from the moment you enter, as does all the staff. Watching the itamae (master chefs) work is a spectacle, and the quality of the ingredients is unbeatable. Thank you for treating us so well and always leaving us with a great feeling.
