    The amount of rice that was in the nigiri

    Wasn't busy when I went around 2:00pm. Service is friendly and the place is nice and clean. The food however was disappointing. The fish and rice ratio is horrible. Flavor is there but the fish was so thin I felt I was tasting the rice more than the fish itself. In my opinion save your money and visit sumo sushi the ratio portion of rice and fish is excellent. You will be full with just one round. Believe me or not I felt sick with all that rice in my belly. But it's good if you have a sushi craving but I don't think I can eat the ayce again not until they change their rice ratio.

    When I'm craving sushi and want to go all in without destroying my wallet, Ahi & Vegetable is my go-to. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's lots of parking and plenty of seating inside, which already makes it an easy choice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] For around $35 AYCE, the quality is honestly a steal. The variety is solid too -- tons of rolls to choose from, plus fried sides, miso soup, veggies, and more. You definitely don't feel limited for the price. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The AC is always bumping so bring a jacket if you're cold easily.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service is always quick and helpful, and the food comes out at a steady pace so you can keep the rounds going. My personal favorites? Anything with shrimp tempura and spicy ahi. I always ask for unagi sauce on the side to dip everything in -- it adds that perfect touch of sweetness. All in all, if you're trying to eat a ton of sushi without breaking the bank, this is the move.

    Food: AYCE sushi was good--nothing standout, but solid overall. Favorites: * Vegetable tempura (the mixed patty kine--my fave) * Aburi hamachi * Agedashi tofu (broth was ono) * Garlic fried chicken wings Cost: $35 AYCE per adult, keiki discounted. Sashimi + otoro are $3 extra per order. They do check for leftovers and charge accordingly--so order wisely. Ended up around $45 after tip... not the "deal" I imagined, but still decent. Service & Space: [[HIGHLIGHT]]Friendly staff, clean, and sanitary.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Late update 2-11-2026 Brother-in-law said let's try the AYCE at Ahi and Vegetable. We got there a few minutes before eleven. Signage stated that the AYCE Starts at eleven. We were promptly seated and given a menu for our selections. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very good service with clean and spacious seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was surprised that our first ordered came out on a wooden boat. This is something you see at fancier Japanese restaurants. Overall the sushi was good. I didn't care for the breading of the fried squid or tempura. Enjoy

    Today my sister and B-in-law decided to check out Ahi & Vegetable located in the Kapalama shopping center . We decided to go with their AYCE sushi . $35.95 not too bad although certain premium sushi will be $3 more . It was ok and they brought out our sushi in a boast it was pretty cool . Service was efficient once we rang the buzzer the waitress came by real quick . Support local

    Casual and affordable all-you-can-eat sushi spot! Out of all of the Ahi & Vegetable locations, this is my favorite. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Lots of parking, friendly service, and a large dining area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The sushi is a bit rice-heavy but the selection and price makes up for it. My must orders are the fried calamari, aburi scallops, and onion salmon. If your order is large they even put it on a wooden boat!

    Tried out the AYCE here at Ahi & Veggie. I was surprised at how much choices were available. I was hoping for the boat, but the food all came out on individual plates. Also we could only order like 3 items at a time. Anyway, the food was pretty good. My kids enjoyed the non sushi items and made the ordering worth it too.

    Update on 2-11-26. My brother wanted to try AYCE sushi here at this place. Me and my husband never tried the AYCE sushi although we had their salmon ahi salad. That's good. Well we ordered a little too much today. Ikura, salmon, ahi, imitation crab, shrimp tempura, fried calamari, tamago, gyoza, unagi. It was alot. For the price I guess it was okay.it was about $35.00 per person. If you want to try them support them.

    Not a bad portion for $17

    Definitely some good flavors my first time in ahi vegetable I ordered the spicy Yahi. I can't really complain. I'm here for the Fish. The vegetables looked a little bit overcooked but I'm OK with.

    Some nights call for something quick, healthy-ish, and satisfying--and that's exactly how we ended up at Ahi & Vegetable. We were in Kalihi and I suggested it to my hubby as an easy dinner option. I ordered the ahi, salmon, cali, poke bento, while my hubby went with the chirashi. Both meals came with a bowl of miso soup. Is it the greatest sushi you'll ever have? No--but it's a great option when you're in the mood for sushi but don't want to break the bank. The portions are solid, the fish is fresh, and best of all, the food comes out fast. Simple, affordable.

    The fresh fish they use is great and the owner goes to the auction block daily to purchase the fish he needs for the day. The service is great and they are friendly and service from order to dining is fast. If you are craving some fresh fish or they serve also udon and also have some cooked items and alcoholic drinks and soft drinks available for purchase. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restroom are shared by all the tenants in the Kapalama mall it is on the left side of Ahi & Vegetable as you enter pass the laundromat.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Good size parking shared by other tenants.

    On Sunday, May 24, 2026, I picked up my takeout order. Jade was so helpful, friendly, and pleasant. She made sure I received my rewards by asking me to punch in my phone number. Whenever we have a family get-together, I always get sushi platter from Ahi & Vegetable. Their food is always delicious. My family eats at the restaurant very often and enjoy their AYCE. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is always clean and is very spacious.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall the restaurant is one of my favorite sushi restaurants.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Thank you Jade - you're awesome. Ahi & Vegetable is fortunate to have a very good employee like you.

    Food was yummy! Fish was fresh and great quality. Chicken wings were slightly too salty for me but still nice and crunchy. Parking is shared and located next to Launderette.

It looks similar to spicy ahi without the super spice. All the poke was super fresh and tasty. The guys working the counter was super nice and they're cutting the fish fresh. It's a great addition to the Blue Market fresh seafood stalls in the Maunakea market. Im going for the fresh steamed fish next time!

Lots to choose from so I had to sample a few. Menu is large, so I won't go through all of it. But they do serve local food here to go with the fish. Ordered a sort of plate lunch with lau lau, rice and Hamachi fish. Portions a large and priced well for what you're getting. The fish was great, but I thought the lau lau was a bit dry. Kind of disappointing. What I would suggest is just sticking to the poke if you're here. At any rate, a good time was had by all.

My first time back at Kapiolani Seafood Restaurant, and let me share with you what I liked about this new location - 1. It appears that there is more parking for this restaurant, as there is a downstairs garage designated parking for Kapiolani Seafood Restaurant. 2. The new location appears to be more spacious, because when I dined at the old location I noticed there wasn't as much space between tables. 3. The new Kapiolani Seafood Restaurant location is less than a block away from the original location, so not hard to find. The day we took my dad here for dim sum, the food was fabulous (see pics), and service was great! No complaints here, that's for sure.
