Reviews for HaKaCha Restaurant in Ithaca, NY
I love their food. I got a crispy chicken salad with mango and sesame dressing it was delicious. A friend and I shared a spicy... seafood squid ink pasta because we were curious but also nervous to risk a whole dinner on it. It was SPICY and absolutelydelicious. I got more to go to feed my family. I'll will definitely go back to try there whole menu. They have a limited menubut I believe they have chosen to serve the food they do best and it shows. Visit #2 I got Salmon Green Curry Noodles. Sodelicious. 10 out of 10 recomend. Read more
For a place in a little strip mall, this place turns all expectations on their head. I got the squid ink pasta and the mango... salad. Both dishes are 10/10s. In addition to being reasonably priced, I felt like the portions are big enough that the singleappetizer and main course was more than enough for my partner and I. Great food, I would eat it again.

I?ve been in Ithaca almost 4 years and I only just discovered this place. I can?t recommend it more! Service was fast and the... food was unbelievable. All 4 of us had an amazing dish: the pad Thai, squid ink pasta/salmon, vegetable ramen, and chickenpasta. The flavors were incredible! Seriously better than other similar restaurants on the Commons.

A hidden gem. We visited, intrigued by the menu selections that seemed influenced by modern Japanese cuisine. The mushroom... pasta with butter/soy sauce did not disappoint. Ramen noodles themselves were not of the best quality and slightly overcooked(soft) but soup was savory ? even one used for vegetarian ramen. Price was very reasonable. Reservation recommended forweekends. Read more
The fried chicken salad is so good. The breaded coat is crispy while it?s very juicy and tender inside. The sauce is fitting... well, too. I also got the spicy seafood squid ink pasta - the scallops and shrimps are very fresh - wish the pasta sauce can becreamier tho. Shredded pork bread and green tea cheese cake are classic. Read more
It's not often that I come across a vegetarian ramen that I like, but this was excellent! From the unique atmosphere to the... exceptional service, this has quickly become a local favorite. The food is outstanding - and reasonably priced! Try the brusselssprouts appetizer, you won't regret it! Read more

We're from Pennsylvania, outside of Philly, so we know good food. Up in Ithaca for the weekend. Came here on a whim. Absolutely... fabulous! Little hole in the wall in a little strip mall. The establishment is clean and inviting. We had the fried chicken,shredded pork on toast and gyoza to start. My wife had the chicken with green curry and I had the bacon ramen. Their Thai icedtea is great. The apps were fantastic, especially the chicken. And our entres were fabulous as well. My wife really liked thegreen curry, and she is not an adventurous foodie. The bacon ramen was killer, I COULDN'T STOP EATING IT! Highly recommendHakacha to anyone who enjoys well made Asian food. Read more
