A cozy place with great service. Food is delicious and the presentation is superb. We came here with my husband and our baby and we had a great time. Our baby especially loved the garlic fried rice with lettuce and escallops.
Visited way back in the spring time of last year. It was amazing! The food was top notch and their house made alcohol was great and fun to try :) the atmosphere is cozy but lively.
One of my favorite dinner spots in Honolulu. Reservations are needed at this time.
We ordered several items from the specials and standard menu. From the current specials menu, I recommend the spicy bamboo shoots and simmered beef tongue rice.
The portion sizes for several of the items were much larger than I expected, but I’d still recommend ordering around 3 dishes per person so that you can sample more items.
Other items I enjoyed: sukiyaki pizza and soba with tofu (broth was SO good).
Authentic izakaya spot with great flavors, and many unusual dishes. Very reasonable price and service is great! Reservation is highly recommended.
*Reservations Only!* Had a fantastic time in this izakaya. It's small and loud and makes the experience very exciting. Their draft beer (Orion) is served in chilled mugs and the Okinawan lime highball was refreshing.
We had the beef tongue, quail eggs, chicken skin, aburi (seared mackerel), and a few more that weren't pictured. All their food is nicely shareable with friends and was delicious.
This was our first time eating Okinawan food. We got the tako wasabi, pickled spicy cucumber, the taco rice, the seared salted pork, and the grilled chicken skin. The tastes are pretty different from we are used to, but still pretty tasty.
One of my favorite spots! Not only is the staff friendly and fun, but the food is so ono and one of the few places that serve Okinawan cuisine. You seriously cannot go wrong with anything on the menu but you have to make sure you try their awamori shochu (we typically get the sampler). If you’ve never had shochu, it’s basically okinawan vodka but SUPER smooth. We were hungry so apologies for the semi-blurry pics.
This is my favorite restaurant in Hawaii! I always enjoy coming here and spending time. If they have it, try the Hamachi Carpaccio. It's the best! The seared mackerel is very good too. Also, I highly recommend the desserts, the Okinawan donuts and the baguette ice cream!
Make sure to make a reservation. They are only accepting customers with reservations right now.
It’s very authentic. The food was fresh and delicious. Besides, the chef and attendant are very nice to us. The only thing you need to remember is to make a reservation as soon as you can
Food was amazing, the hamachi pieces were thick. Vibes were good, everyone there was having a good time. Only thing is there was one server and then place was packed, so service was a little slow at times. I recommend everything we ordered.
