Description

A tucked-away Hawaiian–Japanese spot serves generous, affordable plates with fast, friendly service — perfect for takeout or a quick casual lunch. The menu blends island flavors and Japanese classics (furikake ahi, teriyaki combos, curry fries, chili burgers, mac salad) with standout tuna, ribs and salmon. Seating is limited and sparse, so patrons often call ahead; the small, cozy vibe and bold flavors keep locals coming back.

This is a lovely, tucked-away spot. I'm not very familiar with this type of cuisine, but I decided to give it a try one day. I thought I had overlooked it when moving to the area, but it's just a bit out of sight. The food is delicious; I ordered two main dishes along with some appetizers, and it was more than enough for both my wife and me. I will definitely be returning!

I heard about this place through word-of-mouth, so I decided to stop by, and I'm really glad I did. The staff were friendly, and the food was excellent! The portions were generous, and everything was cooked perfectly. I can't wait to try more items on the menu!

That was a nice place to get good food. Good portion sizes, some cheap options and a variety of food options.

Don't be deterred by the scary looking exterior. Great prices for good food. Constant stream of large orders to go, looks like many families pick up dinner from here. Seating area is a little bare, but serviceable. The cha sui sandwich was surprisingly good!

The front dining area appears clean, though there are no restrooms available. However, it's hard to gauge the overall cleanliness without seeing the kitchen. The Japanese takeout is always delicious. Today, we ordered the ahi, and the salmon plate was also quite tasty. We also got the chicken taquitos that we always enjoy. Typically, we call ahead for quicker service. Overall, the food is great, the service is friendly, and we had a good experience. It's surprising that after spending $35, they still charge for extra teriyaki sauce!
