Every part of the dining experience from reserving via text directly to the owner, to being welcomed into this small cozy place, feels like you had a sushi chef friend who invited you to their home. I had to modify a reservation due to jet lag, and the woman who handled the entire 15 person dining room, knew exactly who I was when i walked in, even though I had never been there! It's literally only the husband behind the counter and the woman taking care of taking orders, serving, and checking in on every diner. The small decorations are fun and whimsical, especially if you sit at the sushi bar. Prices are very fair for the quality of the fish and although they do have set combinations, I preferred to create my own. I got the miso soup, albacore, yellowtail, Maguro, shrimp tempura roll, vegetable roll, and negihama. I ended up ordering enough for 3 people, but since I was staying in a condo, they graciously packed leftovers to go with condiments! Count on about $100 per person if you have a drink and a hearty appetite. A beautiful gesture upon leaving was being gifted a fresh flower! read more

I still love Satoe and the idea of this place. I loved it so much the first time, I made a point to return 3 years later. Sadly, the sushi did not meet my expectations this time. Traditionally, sushi chef put soy sauce and wasabi in the between the fish and rice, and it's part of the flavor. I don't remember how it was done last time, but that was not the case this time. I had to awkwardly flip the nigiri pieces and dip the fish side in soy sauce, and then they fall apart. Ugh. Also, I didn't appreciate the size of the rice. It was impossible for me to eat the whole piece in one bite, but it's kind of rude not to under the traditional Japanese etiquette. The fish quality was.....okay. TBH, I had better in Sacramento/Roseville for way cheaper. I had more elegant, delicious, and satisfying omakase in San Diego, New York, Shanghai....you name it. For the price (even adjusted for the Maui premium) and the capability of the owners, I truly believe they could do better. Sending love! read more

The owners auto gratted themselves 20% on the total + tax... Japan does not have tip culture, and its not customary in the U.S. to tip the owners of the establishment... Also, we tip on the bill NOT the bill + tax... I have no idea where they got this practice from?? It comes out to roughly $100 a head and there's just so many other places on Maui you can eat better for the same (or better) price. #skip #maui #touristtrap read more

1054Togoshi - Sashimi $36 - Sushi Bars Near Me - Kihei, Hawaii

We really enjoyed our meal here - the sushi was excellent; not only the fish but also the sushi rice was slightly sweet (just right). We each ordered the Omakase Sushi "A", and because the meal was so good we ordered 2 more rolls to share -- the 6 piece California roll (with real crab), and the eel and cucumber roll served with warm, just cooked eel and a sweet eel sauce. Make a reservation by SMS text, with the number on their website. It's a small place, though a walk-in two-top was able to get a seat the Thursday night we were there around 7 or 8ish. We were also able to make day-of reservations a few hours before they opened for dinner service. I'd go again; and I'd also get their recommended two-bottled-beer drink again (a mix of a chocolatey dark malt with a dry light beer) -- I'm not a big beer fan or drinker in general and I found this very tasty with the meal. read more

4.5/5! Food is super tasty but on the pricier side. - Rainbow roll: the calif roll base has real crab, but overall $35 - negihama - spicy scallop roll: this was the best, freshest scallop we've ever had! - loved the fresh wasabi, sweet and a little spicy -0.5 star since even though we were the only ones, service was slow (husband and wife shop) and I think they're mainly Japanese only speakers so conversation/communication was limited read more

The fish is so fresh and always order their sake & hamachi sashimi. This time we got two orders of spicy hamachi and shrimp tempura rolls plus unagi nigiri. In the last six months we've been coming here monthly and am always so pleased with its freshness. The hostess/owner is such a sweetheart always going above and beyond to make us feel special and appreciated. What can I say, the space is bright, happy, full of island vibes, and lots of Aloha. read more

Excellent service from door to seat and door again. Cute atmosphere with a fantastical beach-themed decor which includes Snoopy, lemurs, tiny soy sauce bottles, and a surfing cat. The delicious food and much of the graphic art is credited to the chef-owner. The food is fresh, eye-catching and the owners only use authentic wasabi, ground as needed. This place is always a hit. You can now bring your own wine for a $20 corkage, and offer a cooked fish special. We tried their paradise sushi special and were blown away by the incredible array of flavors. It was unlike any other sushi order I have ever had, with a touch of something which seemed to be a layer of aromatic greens. Outstanding. read more

We ate here for the first time and I was blown away. Made reservations via text message about a month out and got three seats at the sushi bar. It's a small restaurant with a few tables and seats at the bar. Very cute and playful Japan meets Hawaii decor with a bit of peanuts characters thrown in. I loved the driftwood Christmas tree! Service was wonderful despite the restaurant being full at 7pm. We started with some Hakkaisan sake and beer. The sake was dry and smooth, just the way I like to start a wonderful sushi meal. Of course I had to order the omakase, which I opted for the "Sushi B" set, which is the basic omakase but with a few additions including tamago, ikura, and since I cannot eat squid I believe they subbed tai. Everything was outstanding. Very meticulously prepared and sushi was fresh, flavorful, and expertly crafted. My favorites were the hamachi, maguro, and aji. Overall we had an amazing meal and we are already dreaming of coming back before we leave Maui. Highly, highly recommend! read more

1054Togoshi - Omakase - Sushi Bars Near Me - Kihei, Hawaii

I acknowledge this review is in the minority. Perhaps it's an excellent place for locals and less for tourists. We had sub average experience. They are open 5-8pm. My group had rsvp at 6:30 and there was only one other party of two at the bar when we arrived. No one else came in after us. I have no doubt this is a beloved business run by a husband and wife team, but objectively service was significantly lacking for such a slow evening. It took awhile for water to be served and our glasses were only refilled once. We were mostly left alone except for when food arrived. The food was on par with what you pay. Except for the fisherman's miso soup- came with a shrimp head and a half filled bowl, no shrimp meat to be seen. It was warm and muggy inside. No AC. Sitting on upholstered couches felt sticky and comfortable. Overall was memorable but not for the right reasons read more

Randomly walked in on a Friday night at 7pm, there was only one other group here - and we were hungry for some sushi! Background ambiance is a chill playlist. The two owners that run this small place do everything - makes sushi, serves food, cleans up dishes... Definition of a small business. For four people we ordered 2x chirashi, 2x aloha sushi (B) plates (12 different fish/items), ankimo sashimi, 1054Togashi roll, and a fisherman's miso soup. Meal came out to just over $400 for 4 people after tax and tip. -0.5 stars for finding ants on one of the plates we got - but the quality of fish, speed of service, general ambiance - you don't come here for "cheap" eats - you come here for the authentic food and fresh fish. For just the two of them this place is a quaint, homely place to get a meal - I am certainly glad I dropped in, but it's expensive to be a regular here, for sure. Definitely recommend trying this place if you are able to walk in (or get a reservation?). It's in a plaza where there's plenty of parking and I didn't have any problems finding the place after I figured out how to get there. read more

Super small place- reserved for the 6 of us and pre-ordered our food the night before. A Mom and Pop store with the Mom doing the serving. Sweet lady but we were not offered any refills on drinks. Our preorder included the omakase A and B. Miso soup, California rolls and seaweed salad. -Cali roll- 5/5 very tasty with real crab but the pieces were cut too large -seaweed salad-5/5 not your normal green seaweed-- it's in a soupy (mirin?)mixture with a dark seaweed. It was surprisingly good with a nice vinegar bite The omakase is all on a plate- no real explanation of what you are eating - All in all, good but the omakase experience wasn't there. read more

The sushi and food at 1054Togoshi is so good and fresh! The owners are very friendly and nice and create such a good atmosphere. My wife had the Omakase and I had a-la-carte sushi. Some highlights were definitely the Maguro and Snapper sushi. We ended up ordering seconds they were so good. Thank you to the owners for your warm welcoming. If you have a chance to go to this restaurant please do! It's absolutely worth it! read more

Nominated for cutest sushi bar on Maui! This hidden gem is located in Kihei by Fabiani's. It's cozy place run by a couple. There are three 4-person tables and 6 sushi bar seats. Every nook and cranny is covered with decorations. This place is best enjoyed when you can take your time and relax. The sushi is super high quality and tastes amazing! So fresh and generous portions. One suggestion is that it would be nice to have more cooked items on the menu to choose from. Look for the friendly cats out front who eat very well on raw fish! read more

Hands down one of the best sushi experiences in Maui. The owners are incredible people who make you feel like family before, during, and even after your visit. We made reservations (recommended, esp if it's a busy weekend) and were welcomed with smiles and a wonderful greeting at the door. all of the decor is very Maui and warm - which was just a bonus of the great food and experience we had. We came later in the evening so the service and speed was incredible, but, expect to be wowed by just about everything this restaurant has to offer. Take your time! Take in the experience & enjoy this authentic glimpse of traditional island seafood cuisine. Highly recommend, especially if you're a sushi connoisseur of any kind! read more

We come to Maui for two weeks in March, second to golf and eat. After playing a round of golf at Wailea Gold, we rushed to 1054 Togoshi for dinner. We started with the white snow shake and the wasabi ika (diced squid in a mild wasabi sauce). We look forward to this dish as we cannot find the same quality in the San Francisco Bay Area. Our wives both ordered the chirashi (delicious and fresh sashimi over sushi rice) and two sashimi platters B. Oh my gosh, the sashimi they serve is so fresh and delicious. They also use fresh wasabi instead of the reconstituted powder wasabi. It is not as hot and is so much more delicious. I would highly recommend 1054 Togoshi's if you desire the absolute most delicious and fresh sashimi or sushi. Satore will take great care of you if you're dining for sashimi or sushi. And her husband is a true master of preparing fish for sashimi and sushi. read more

Togoshi makes me do a happy dance! We called for last minute reservations tonight and were lucky enough to get in! The space fills up quickly and people are sometimes turned away if the restaurant is full, which i completely understand since it's a 2 person operation. Everything is so fresh and delicious! The two of us shared a few different rolls and sashimi but managed to clean our plates. The drink menu has vodka, whiskey and sake options but we opted for beer this time. It may be a little more pricey than some of the options nearby, but you can tell they take pride in what they do and the service they provide. I also appreciate the cute decor and personal touches everywhere. read more

We came here for a birthday celebration and it was perfect. I called ahead to make a reservation three weeks before coming. Satoe was wonderful. Communicative and terrific customer service. Ample parking in their lot right outside. With a larger party, she suggested ordering ahead, which was perfect as our food came out with a nice flow. I can't rave enough about the freshness, quality and superb presentation of our meal. We really enjoyed the salads, carpaccios and all the rolls were food porn for the eyes and mouth. She added some special surprises for the birthday boy like banner on the wall by the table and a hand written chalk board message which were super cute and much appreciated. read more

I was born and raised in Tokyo, Japan. And I KNOW what the quality of "authentic" sushi restaurants in Tokyo has to be, including the ones in Ginza. I don't hesitate to say 1054 Togoshi is absolutely the best sushi restaurant on Maui. Food Quality is very high, authentic, and absolutely far more delicious than other Sushi restaurants on Maui. Chef Manabu is very quiet (that alone indicates he is a very professional Sushi chef from Japan) and his Sushi is amazing, and his wife Satoe, who manages floor operations, is super attentive, polite, and offers services with genuine "Japanese Omotenashi" spirit. The restaurant is very clean and stylish with a Modern Maui ambience and cute decorations that Satoe creates. I must admit prices are on the higher side, but the restaurant is definitely worth checking. I have been living on Maui for over 16 years now, and this is a very special place that I must regularly come back to feel at home. read more

There is something very off putting from the moment you enter; sushi chef I guess owner does not greet or acknowledge your presence. very inattentive over all for a small restaurant that was not particularly busy. must have waited 30-40' just to get water. then the sushi order was painfully slow. I think the quality of the fish was decent but their prices are at the upper end. With so many choices for sushi, I'd skip this place until their hospitality can do a 180 degree turn! read more

Incredible sushi. I visit every time I'm in Maui add this to your list of must go places

Fresh, tasty fish. Aesthetic decor. Consistently onolicious. Look at the menu before going because limited non-seafood options for your keiki who only eats chicken nuggets and hamburgers, but this place is 100% worth leaving that one behind with your boomer. Can I give 6 stars? read more

Sushi lovers rejoice, there's an excellent husband and wife duo who make wonderful sushi creations. 1054Togoshi has a relaxing vacation vibe with cute hand-painted signs about the importance of practicing aloha and Polaroids of beautiful Maui scenes. The location is easy to get to from anywhere in Kihei and they have delicious fresh fish offerings. My favorite is their Hamachi carpaccio with daikon radish intermixed with chirashi leaves. The combo is so fresh and delightful. The combination plates are also the way to go if you're wanting to try different fishes. My favorite was the sashimi. Go here if you want a refreshing dining experience! read more

Came to Maui for my birthday month and decided to have our last night/celebration dinner here. This local restaurant was an amazing choice for dinner. I'm all about taking care of local businesses when possible and I could not be more pleased, not only for the ambiance and personal preference, but the food was delicious and amazing. Recently having gone to Japan for the first time in May 2024, I was looking forward to dinner here. We didn't make a reservation and crossed our fingers that we could easily get a table for 7 if we showed up right when they opened. Gratefully, that was the right call and we got seated in a cozy spot. It's not a big place and is definitely a hidden gem; diamond in the rough. It really was special to get to experience the food and pride taken by this couple. Other posts scrutinized the portions or slow service, but true Japanese dining is not about that... it's about the flavors w/ presentation. The American food culture tends to be "bigger is better and serve me fast"and there's other restaurants that will do the job of just feeding you to get you out the door if that is what you're looking for. We started out with the Yellowtail Carpaccio and miso & seafood miso soups. Five star way to begin for this family. The group ordered a variety of food for meals from the menu. I know there was a Chirashi bowl and a signature Togoshi roll ordered. For this birthday girl, I ordered the Aloha Sashimi B Omakase and LOVED it. The seafood was fresh, flavorful, and so delicious. Very pretty too. There was unagi and uni ordered as well that we all agreed was top shelf. I know we will make sure to dine here whenever we are visiting Maui. Hands down a family favorite now. For anyone wanting that authentic Japanese dinner, 1054Togoshi won't disappoint. Come here for a wonderful meal with quality worth paying for. read more

Best sashimi in the area. Somehow evaded me for years and is now my go to spot. Adorable interior and very comfortable seating. The woman owner is the sweetest, great service - there's a lot of love and pride in this place. Omakase B - delicious, salmon and hamachi are much better quality than the standard. Sunomono - excellent Miso soup - flavorful and tasty, again better than the standard California roll - real crab, very good Spicy hamachi - lots of hamachi, very fresh and yummy 10/10 extremely satisfied. Give this local family restaurant a shot. read more

We love eating sushi in different states and countries and can say with certainty this spot is amongst the best spots we've ever eaten at. It really taste like cuisines made and shipped directly from Japan. We got the Aloha (A) omakase and miso soup with were phenomenal! We have an acquired taste for miso soup and it was on par with soup we've had in Shibuya. The service is slower since it really is just the two of them, but I can assure you the wait is worth it. The ambience feels like you are in Hawaii, but the food taste straight from Japan. With the lack of foodie spots in Maui, this restaurant would make me fly here just to get the sushi again! read more

Based off of a recommendation, we stopped by this wonderful restaurant and was glad we did. It's a quaint and eclectically decorated restaurant by a husband (the sushi chef) and wife (host). They do a fabulous job in terms of making you feel at home while also giving you your privacy. The fish is incredibly fresh and evidently sliced with care. Every dish is beautifully set; we had the Takowasabi (octopus in wasabi sauce), and it was fantastic. This is definitely a hidden gem and probably the best sushi on the island! read more

A close friend of mine who has lived on Maui since 2020 told me this was a must stop when visiting Maui. Holy cow, I wish we didn't wait until our last day. I want to eat here again and again. The restaurant is small and intimate. Prices are extremely reasonable, service is excellent, and the food is truly outstanding. We ordered -miso soup: perfect, and one of the best I've had. It wasn't overly salty where you feel the soup need to be accompanied with beer or water to wash down. It was light and full of flavor Yellowtail carpaccio: WOW. Tangy but extremely balanced sauce toped with a very thin slice of jalapeño. If you want the extra kick fold up that bad boy with the fish and take out tastebuds to heaven, or omit and it will still make your mouth happy! 10 piece sashimi: call me a rookie, but I had the raw octopus for the first time tonight and it was delicious! All of the fish was perfectly sized, fresh and my gluttonous self wanted more. Spicy yellowtail roll: balanced with just the right amount of fish to rice ratio and fantastic flavor. Washed it all down with an Orion beer. I'm not a huge beer drinker but let me say, it was tasty. The also have wine and Japanese vodka and whiskey. It's a husband and wife owned sushi restaurant. They have something for everyone on the menu. Even a ton of options for vegan and vegetarians. Takeout is also available, and TBH, I'm going to place a to-go order before my flight out tomorrow night. read more

Small business, support local, great food and outstanding service. They're a small dining restaurant and with limited seating even without Covid restrictions, I strongly suggest you call ahead for reservations. I called and left a message and the next day Satoe messaged to see if I was still interested in coming in. We made a reservation for 5 that night and I mentioned we were celebrating my boyfriend's son's visit home from being away for two years serving our country in the Navy. We arrived early and she mentioned there'd be a wait since they're busy. I told her it was fine....upon sitting at our table we were surprised to see a personalized sign for our sailor. It's those sweet personal touches that really makes me love the restaurant more. We ordered a plethora of sushi, something for everyone. The mister ordered beer for him, the little wanted juice and I opted for water. And sake ‍ Sushi order came one by one and we were absolutely so happy with each bite. Don't expect shmancy sushi here. Please go to another establishment for that. This is the real kind of sushi that adding extras is absolutely not needed. Edamame: I normally wouldn't order this because really I can get it cheaper making it at home. But it was a celebration and the little wanted some. Perfectly cooked, crisp and not mushy with the just right amount of salt. Tekka: I'm so happy that the little was happy to eat ALL of the tekka. She said it's simple but delish. Uni: silky smooooth and you get that hint of ocean. If you're an uni eater, you'd understand. I literally could've had more, but saved myself from the stares of others Eel Cucumber: unagi with unagi sauce and the cool sweetness of cucumber. Spicy Scallops: just a hint of heat with some sweet scallops. I'll admit, I'm one of those that love the masago bursts. Salmon Skin: It's like a potato chip but made with salmon skin. So crispy and tasty! One of my fave rolls that I order at almost every sushi restaurant I go. Togoshi'a version is like most, but their skin....so crispy and to hear that *crunch* is sooooo satisfying. Togoshi: an absolute must. Forget getting a rainbow roll. Just get this. You get everything including masago and ikura! Sushi pop rocks! Put it this way...if you want REAL, LEGIT sushi...go here. If you want dressed up sushi...don't waste your time here. read more

Glad I called in ahead for reservations because this place is run by a couple only so there is limited seating and service. The decor was cute filled with positive beach vibes. My bf and I both really enjoyed the Sunomono, albacore carpaccio, spicy scallop roll, and Uni. Their Chirashi bowl was a lacking flavor. I had better cut & grade fish back home. Their rice was okay. We didn't care for their sweet shrimp sushi at all and the salmon wasn't the best neither. Lastly it was disappointing to find out that there is a 4% overall charge for credit card transaction. They should at least have a sign out in front to notify guests prior. read more
