I was craving hosomaki, and came across Fruisea through Google Maps. Such an unassuming little mom and pop shop with delicious sushi! I placed an online order for ume, cucumber, and shinko hosomaki along with a dragon roll. Prices were pretty affordable (like 2016 affordable). The shop is on the first floor of the plaza, with free parking under 30 mins. I'll definitely have to come back next time I'm in Chinatown. read more

This place is simply amazing!!!! The food is good, the people kind and it's a family business. Our Family of four with 3 teenagers who all agreed this was our best place to eat the entire trip. Epic is an understatement. We saw another review that said HOLY Sushi for this place and it was right on!! read more

Lunch in Chinatown, Honolulu, Hawaii... We decided to meet at a Hot New Business on a Sunday because metered street parking is free! Located on the canal side of the Cultural Plaza, the entrance to Fruisea Rolls & Tea is on the inside of the plaza, facing Sandy's Cafe. The clean, bright, cozy interior is cheerful because of the friendly workers! We ordered and paid at the counter. Our food and drinks were brought to us promptly. I got the Fresh Golden Lime Tea which was refreshing and tart from the lime slices. I also ordered the salmon, ume, and avocado maki sushi. All of them were yummy and reasonably priced! We were given a plate of complimentary curry fish balls... they were good! When we commented on the cute logo, the owner gave us each a kawaii takeout bag! Thank you! Thanks also for the hospitality! (We're were asked if we live nearby... not really... LOL!) We should return on another Sunday... they let us stay and chat for a couple of hours... and a table was moved so we could have more space! Thanks! read more

Yelpers meet up on a Sunday morning to try this hot and new Fruisea Rolls & Teas! Yelp Elite All Stars Irene M., Donna O. and Aunty Nadine C. and I rendezvoused here for refreshments and to try its foodie offerings. The name "Fruisea" is a play on "Fruits of the Sea," and the menu includes both seafood items like sushi, poke bowls, and udon, as well as fruit drinks. Fruisea is located in the Chinatown Cultural Plaza. It's across Sandy's Cafe. Bathrooms are available with a key. Request access from employees. It's a small establishment with a few cozy tables and a counter/ cashier area to place your order. Appears to be a family run business here. Really nice attentive service and smiles abound. Tables were rearranged to accommodate our group of four. A complimentary curry fish cake appetizer was served to us while we were eating. I ordered a drink of yuzu seltzer with strawberry mix. It's not on the menu. They made the refreshing drink for me and it was delicious! I also wanted to try the sushi and ordered the tekka maki and kanpyo maki rolls. Both delicious and freshly made. Prices for drinks and sushi are very reasonably priced. Ginger and wasabi are served with the sushi. Shoyu is available on the table, along with dipping dishes. Having fun with Irene, Donna and Nadine is priceless!!! We stayed for a while and we were never pressured to hurry up and leave. Customers came and ordered while we were there. Food and drinks are good and freshly made here. Thank you Nadine, Donna and Irene for your great company and sharing of food and goodies. Parking: We all found free street metered parking on Sunday. Otherwise you may park and pay in the Chinese Cultural Plaza parking lot. Food: 4.5/5 stars Service: 5/5 stars Ambiance: 4/5 stars read more

A TEArrific spot... It's been awhile since we've gathered so choosing a spot can get tricky but here we are at a newbie in the Chinatown Cultural Plaza where they do charge for parking but on Sunday all street parking is free and I did get very lucky to find a spot right beside the building. Located on the ground floor right across from Sandy's love the super cute logo of various sushi is definitely bright and cheerful is a unique thing to see in this area. As I did want to later browse around the area I passed on the sushi and decided to order a tea which choices they have does compliment with their menu items is very nice and cool. Besides on their menu there are some items that's not on it like "Refreshing Lemon Tea" where there was a picture of it right beside the service counter and decided that was it a simple yet so refreshing sip that I love. Though I didn't order any sushi my besties did and was made very nice and though we usually do know what's in it some of the rolls didn't have enough description for me to decide and wish that they provide that versus asking is much more convenient for me since I do have some allergies. The staff there is so nice and friendly as we were a party of five the four top table was a bit small and gave us another table and allowed us to catch up and hangout a big longer is so generous and kind. As we commented how adorable their logo is they gifted us a logo take out bag which was so thoughtful and with that will carry the wonderful Fruisea with me. Thank you! read more

Very good lunch takeout sushi spot. Family owned. Would take this over kozo any day. They have cute takeout bags too.

New place...at Chinese Cultural Plaza. So if you're driving, choke parking. It's on the river side of the plaza...close to Lee Ho Fook...if you in the middle, closer to Tai Pan. Best part: 1. They are really nice there. All smiles. Apologetic for waits. 2. Good Special. Hopefully new one for next month. Special that ends today ... free drink for spending so much, free dessert for spending so much. Spent a lot so I got both. Lime Tea was really tasty and refreshing. Little sweet for me, so gave to the hubs. 3. Good prices, but it's in line with the quality. 4. Cute take out bags! Some things that need a little help: 4 pages of menu. No descriptions, so try to decipher from the sorta blurry picture. Girl at front super nice, but not super confident what's in everything. Had to ask, but better than just making things up. The "fancy" big rolls...cali on the inside. Too bad b/c missed opportunity to be super creative with the Sakura Roll. Cali and the sauces are a little too "haole" for my taste. I do like a good cali, but it doesn't need to be in everything. Ordered a bunch for my lunch, baby's dinner, and Ma's dinner. - Ocean Lover Combo for Ma - Fried Calamari - Came across more Italian-ish than Asian-ish. But not terrible. - Takuan for baby. Decent size takuan so baby will be happy. - Soba for baby. Big, so feed the hubs too - Spicy Ahi and Spicy Salmon Nigiri - not bad, but something missing. I think a spooge of sesame oil would be good. And more chili oil or powder. I like that it's not sriracha kine. - Volcano Waave Roll - Shrimp Tempura inside, spicy ahi outside. Usually aioli (I think) and kabayaki on top...noooo kabayaki for me. Too sweet. read more

I first saw Fruisea on my Instagram reels mentioning that a new affordable sushi place opened up. I tried to look up the menu online, but wasn't able to find anything so my coworker and I decided to head there and check it out. It is located near the river on the first floor in Chinatown Cultural Plaza. Staff were very friendly and seemed like it was a small family business. My coworker and I ordered the dynamite roll (spicy salmon, shrimp tempura roll), the tsunami roll (california roll topped with spicy ahi), the curry fish balls, and the calamari. They also mentioned this special where you get a free sparkling drink when you spend over $35. We opted for the yuzu one. It was light and refreshing. Would definitely get again! Very affordable and service was quick. I will definitely come back to try the other stuff they have to offer. read more

First time customer who turned into a regular customer! I heard of this place from many coworkers and heard nothing but good things about it. I didn't bring lunch today so it was the perfect opportunity to try them out. I tried their Volcano Wave bowl. I honestly had no expectations but oh boy, let me tell you for the price, it is a MUST TRY! Their spicy ahi was tasty, it has a nice decent kick to it (nothing too crazy), ahi felt fresh. The shrimp was okay. It's your typical fried shrimp that you get on most restaurants. The sushi rice didn't stand out much to me but it was tasty. The portions are decent and the value is good. It definitely won't break your bank. I suggest you order ahead of time cause they can be slammed during lunch time. Definitely recommend! read more

Fruisea Rolls & Teas - Holiday platter with cute Santas and Santa buckles. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

HOOOOOOOOOOOLY SUSHI!!!!! BRAHHH ABSOLUTELY KILLAHH SPOT ALL THE WAY THRU!!! Gf wanted sushi for dinner and would normally do the typical Aloha or Kozo, but wanted to try a new spot. Was searching on yelp for nearby spots and after looking at about 10-15 places that were OK, found this place and was looking at the menu. The nigiri and bowls looked good, but then I got to the platters and they had rainbow roll, shrimp katsu, and ahi bombs in a platter for a good price, and the picture look INSANE. So call them up, customer service on the phone was on point and fast, placed a pickup order and was thinking "shoot probably gotta wait 1-2 hours for a platter" but they said pickup in 20 minutes!!! Got there about thirty minutes later and the place is a cool little hole in the wall. Walked in and it's a family run business with the husband and wife and daughter and they bring some NICE ALOHA when you walk in. Greet you and chop it up for a little bit, not going overboard with it at all, but supper attentive to needs, asking about little details. The platter was ready right when I got there and it looked EXACTLY like picture. Took it straight home and me and my gf started digging in. Phenomenal flavor in every different nigiri and my absolute favorite was the spicy ahi. These guys have a KILLLAHHHH spicy ahi!!! Give fresh wasabi and ginger to go with. Me and my gf started eating it so fast I forgot to take a picture, but BRAHHH 10/10 experience at every level. And great to see a family run business going above and beyond, providing something chain sushi places cannot. Absolutely suggest going here for dinner, or for events, their platters are 100% a win to get for any reason. read more
