Temaki

Temaki on Hope Street runs a Tokyo-style counter-serve operation: concise menu, fast service, unfussy décor. The kitchen hand-rolls sushi daily from fresh ingredients, with ramen, katsu curry and tempura alongside. The signature chilli chicken ramen — a deep, fiery broth served in the kind of generous bowl that becomes the whole point of the visit — is the most-discussed dish in reviews. The sushi burrito, an oversized seaweed roll packed with sushi-grade fish, vegetables and rice, draws attention as a format not found elsewhere on Hope Street. Plant-based options run across a significant portion of the menu. Reviewers are largely positive about food quality; a minority flags that portion sizes do not match expectations at the price point. A compact but consistently well-regarded Japanese option in a stretch of Hope Street that has developed into one of the city's busiest casual-dining corridors.
