Very good sushi, even better shabu shabu. Compares favorably with Japanese food at equivalent restaurants in the US and Japan.
Beautiful surroundings. Clueless staff and the high prices take something away fom the experience, though. Clearly they are not relying on volume for revenue.

I am a hardcore Sushi fan and am always on a lookout for good Sushi places to eat. My favourite being Hiro Sushi in Toronto Downtown.
When I moved to Bangalore, I thought that I will have to give up on Sushi until I came across Harima.
It was really good and as close to authentic as it gets in this part of the world.
The Unagi portion could be a little less. Six pieces for Rs. 500 are a lot. They should offer it as a pair.
Anybody who has moved back to India and is craving for some good Sushi... this is the place to go.

well i have not been to many japanese restaurants before although i am always on a lookout 4 trying new stuff but unfortunately bangalore is not providing that much of a variety in this respect..of course what is popular is what is commercial..
so one day three of my equally adventurous frens and me went to harima on residency road..the well dressed watchman there, attracted our attention..of course after a long ritual of taking pics shot with him..we proceeded in..
the place was soothingly silent and the serene environment reminds one of those meditation rooms they show old japanese homes to have in movies..
the seating style is interesting and it really added an edge to the whole experience..
the menu is filled of names written in japanese (in english) and i strongly recommend not to order anything which sounds interesting without actually enquiring about it..
if you are a great fan of sushi and of course "caviar" which my friends tried out...go for it!
it is authentic and worth a try..
my vegetarian fren and me tried out a salad and another dish whose name i fail to remember..which was said to be a mix of bamboo shoot pickle and others..now that was the only spicy food among all and we enjoyed eating it..
as i said earlier, it was adventurous as we were exploring an "unknown domain"..
the experience was rich although we would think twice before going to a jap resto again..indian palate you see.
But i would gladly wanna point out that a japanese family consisting of two beautiful twin daughters was thoroughly enjoying the food...hence the comment -"authentic"!
