The Loop by Hachiroku is a Japanese restaurant in Audubon, at 367 Orange St, New Haven, CT 06511. It’s open every day from 10:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., which makes it easy to fit into a lunch run or an early dinner plan. It’s also opened a second Japanese grocery store and market, so this is one of those places that does a little more than one thing without making a big speech about it.
