What to know about Hatsuyuki
The West 7th Entertainment District is “one of the hottest entertainment scenes in the city,” according to Visit Fort Worth. There is no shortage of activities from Little Woodrow’s with a 400-inch screen, to SandBox VR in Artisan Circle. Located in the heart of Fort Worth, just minutes from downtown.
The popularity of the sushi spot may mean you have to wait to dine. They do not accept reservations, so seating will be on a first-come, first-served basis.
Yelp reviewer Michael B. suggests, “arrive at least an hour before you want to be seated, get your name on the list, *use their QR code for free parking*, then slip over to one of the bars down the street and wait for them to text you that your table is ready.”
Hatsuyuki’s small space makes for an intimate setting with a U-shaped sushi bar that wraps around the chef’s kitchen.
