This place reminded me of the restaurant floor of a Japanese department store (which gives it authenticity points). The $1 beers with any $10 purchase was definitely the highlight.
The food itself is honestly nothing special and a bit overpriced, mostly packaged in take out containers. There was a decent selection of entrees and desserts, though. It seems like a great place to get some food and drinks with friends.
So gave this 5 stars because I stayed almost 2 hours. From the 3 dollar beers, to the array of food selection, to the pristine bathrooms!!! Not sure if I was more impressed by the bathrooms or just the friendliest food servers I was met with. Definitely must visit when on the island.

Great place to try a variety of Japanese food, although some of them are owned by Chinese or other nationalities. Price is reasonable and the serving size is quite generous. If you like Japanese beer, the centre beverage shop offers $1 per glass on tap.
If we had a place like this in Seattle, I would be the fattest person you know. It's a food court like area with so many shops that I got confused where I was multiple times. Theres something for everyone and even though some things might be a little pricier, it's definitely worth it. My husband had some black garlic tonkatsu ramen, and I had a veggie tempura bowl, both amazing and reminded us of japan itself. We also tried some malasadas, which looked and tasted astounding, and some classic japanese side dishes which reminded me of what my own japanese grandmother used to make. I would be here every night for dinner if i could.
Cheap beers ($1 promos, $2 Heineken, etc.), great quality food, and alot of choices on food. Be sure to take a quick lap around to see all the different vendors before choosing what to eat. Dont forget about the couple of dessert spots which are amazing. The line for the beer can get long but it moves quick. This has a street style feel to it but with the comfort of A/C and shade. This is a definite must visit as the beer is cheap, the food is reasonable, and the quality is excellent.
How can ypu skip this place when in Honolulu. Located inside Ala Moana, this japanese food village is a must to go. Theres a bit of ramen collections which many of them are really good and not to forget the $1 beer... So many other things to try too from softserve, okonomiyaki, japanese curry, and more. Soo oishi!!!
Lot of foods, reasonable price, $1 beer ohyaa. Entrance is on the ground floor parking garage under the Bloomingdale's department store. Not easy to find, but its treasure when you do.
This is a bustling food marketplace that gives you an immersive Japanese cuisine experience with so many options, including tepanyaki, sashimi, sushi, tempura, ramen, udon, musubi, poke, okinomiyaki, gyoza, and more. Prices are reasonable, especially their beer which we did not have but we saw many people enjoy them. We went back a few times and could have gone back many times more!
Lots of food and beverage items to choose from. Entrees, beverages, sweet treats. Beer, wine. Reasonanly priced. Free parking. Usually crowded. Loud. Difficult to carry on conversations.
Sooo many choices and varieties of food! Hard to choose one. Best if you have a friend to share dishes with, so that you can try more!
Marion crepes both savory and sweet were delicious. Very popular chain in Japan.
Yoshida Meats has nice variety of katsu...I ordered one of everything :) The croquette is actually mashed potatoes with ground pork...yum! Minced beef and pork katsu has onions, very flavorful. Chicken karaage was very tender. Pork and chicken katsu are pretty standard. Decently priced.
Lastly, there was a Korean combo of meats with kimchi and rice.
