Best Japanese Restaurants in Pearl City

Great experience! Venue is small with seating for maybe 12 people. Played good Hawaiian music and the "bar"tender and hostess were both great! Very quick service and the small venue meant it was easier to manage when getting our food. I'm pretty cheap but the quality of the food was outstanding and I was happy to spend a bit more given how great everything tasted and how quick it came out.

Lovely seating on the bridge bar lanai and lovely live entertainment that was outstanding

Excellent on all counts. Outstanding Pork Belly dish, as well as Ahi with natto, okra & Yama imo. Beets (salad) perfectly cooked, corn beignets light & delicious. Note: You don’t have to be a drinker to enjoy a meal here, altho menu is Izakaya style. Service attentive & unobtrusive.

Food was good and fast The place was very busy Pricing a little on the high end Service is very limited to just check in on you when they are in passing helping others The older man that has been there centuries is also fun to see

Visited during restaurant week Nov 2024 and got the $50 pre-fixe omakase menu with some additional skewers. The omakase menu is normally $80 so it was such a great value (the restaurant week menu had slightly less items). We sat at the counter and it was great to be able to see the chefs at work! Loved the smoky smell in the air and the overall ambiance of the restaurant. Favorites of the night were the sukiyaki skewers, beef tongue skewers and the salmon, ikura, uni don. This was our third or fourth time back to this restaurant, but it had been about 3-4 years since our last visit. We had a great date night and will definitely be back!
