About Hanare

Hanare is Singapore's premier Kamameshi restaurant, nestled in Takashimaya on Orchard Road. Experience authentic Japanese cuisine in the heart of Ngee Ann City. We are the best Kamameshi restaurant in Singapore, serving traditional and comforting dishes crafted with seasonal and exquisite ingredients. Located in Takashimaya along Orchard Road, immerse yourself in the captivating beauty of Japan with our comforting creations inspired by the scenic landscapes of spring, summer, autumn, and winter.

As a beloved Japanese restaurant among Orchard Road diners, Hanare invites you to discover a soulful dining experience that celebrates the depth of Japanese cuisine in an elegant setting.

In Japan, Hanare represents an extension of a home, a dynamic communal space for entertaining and pursuing personal hobbies. Situated on the third floor of Ngee Ann City, Hanare embodies the spirit of a traditional Japanese restaurant with a contemporary touch. Our warm service, soulful fare, and thoughtfully crafted interior of natural wood, soft lighting, and minimalist décor create a refined sanctuary amid Orchard Road's bustling atmosphere. Whether for a leisurely lunch, quiet dinner, or lively celebration, every detail, from menu mastery to ambience, enhances the joy of gathering.

At the forefront of our menu is Kamameshi, a slow-cooked mixed rice dish prepared in a traditional cast iron pot, or kama. Kamameshi is a true one-pot wonder, harmonizing separate ingredients into a cohesive masterpiece of flavour and texture. Lifting the lid reveals a medley of meats, seafood, vegetables, and more, all brought together with Koshihikari rice from Niigata Prefecture, a premium sushi rice celebrated for its delicate sweetness and tender, slightly sticky texture. Also on the menu are classic plates to share, including fresh sashimi, grilled specialties, delicious salads, and decadent desserts. Hanare brings the heart of Japanese dining to the table with harmony, simplicity, and reverence for nature.

Quality and taste was good. We ordered the dinner set for 2 and selected the wagyu beef steak which was well cooked and so juicy. Service was great and all the food tasted fresh and yummy. Be prepared to pay for the quality.

When you are bored with “regular” Japanese cuisine, maybe you should try this restaurant. They serve delicious Kamameshi with premium ingredients, proper portion, reasonably priced and nice presentation too. I tried their dinner set for 2 and It was really fulfilling.
