Such a good spot for high-quality bbq! You can really tell they put care into the quality of the meat--it was fresh, tender, and packed with flavor. Everything we tried was so good, including the sides. I couldn't even decide which salad I liked more because BOTH were that good The service was great, the portions were satisfying, and the whole meal just hit the spot. Definitely one of those places I'd happily come back to when the bbq craving hits! read more

Han No Daidokoro - Barbeque Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

My apologies for taking so long to post this review from Father's Day. My daughter had originally requested a lunch reservation for us, but then was notified the day before, that they wouldn't be about to take us, and switched us to a dinner at 5:30pm. It was okay, since my granddaughter needed to get to bed early anyway. This location is in the heart of the bustling Kaka'ako dining district, at the corner of Auahi and Kamake'e street. It's "cook your own" yakiniku style dining, at it's best. Their seating times are pretty strict (at least they were for Father's Day), and informed us that we're limited to 2 hours. That wasn't a big issue, since they control the pace of bringing out the food for us to cook. They actually cooked the special Wagyu meats for us, too ensure that they were done properly, and not overcooked. We ordered one each of the Father's Day specials, along with one Aloha platter. The prices are high, and the portions seemed small, but the quality was excellent, and we all left with very full bellies. Even my granddaughter, who's kinda picky (as most children are), liked most of the items that were served. I guess she knows good food when she tastes it. She loved the udon and the meats, along with several of the side dishes. Service was very good, with our server explaining each dish, and how to best cook and eat it. We finished well within our allotted time, and had time to relax and let my granddaughter run around outside on the walkway to burn off energy. Apparently, the next seating time was at 7:30, because while outside, another couple came for their reservation, but was asked to come back at their reserved time, because there's no bar, or other waiting area to sit inside. All in all, a great dinner, thanks to my daughter, and while the price makes this place a 'special occasion' location, it's certainly worth it. read more

Such an amazing experience! Me and my significant other came here for our anniversary and I was just dumbfounded by the food and the experience! We ordered the set for 2, I believe the sets are limited availability or seasonal (?) Our server was very accommodating and entertaining lol, he brought out the meat at such perfect times. Whenever we were nearing one of the cuts, he would bring out the next one and explain which part of the cut is which and his wellness recommendations! When I tell you every single piece of meat melted in my mouth, please know I am not exaggerating! The indoor of the restaurant was very classy but not too dim. Everything was very clean! It was also very nice of them to bring out a cheesecake with a cute sparkler/candle!!! Highly recommend! read more

We stumbled upon this place while walking in the Ward area and decided to give it a try before our concert at the Blaisdell Arena. Located next to Istanbul Hawaii, this place is a small but high-end restaurant, focusing on its exclusivity and intimate atmosphere. Initially, we were there to get a quick bite before the concert but ended up eating more than we planned for. However, it was so worth it! Our server was knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive to our needs. We started off with a refreshing yuzu drink that was sour, tart and fragrant. We asked questions about the menu items and the server knew exactly what to recommend based on our preferences. This place specializes in top-tier A5 Miyazaki and Washu Wagyu beef. It was super buttery and melted in our mouths. Our server recommended additional items and we happily obliged. This place can be pricey so I wouldn't come on an empty stomach, unless you're willing to spend a pretty penny. For the price paid, would have liked to see more side dishes included in the price instead of being ala carte. I have heard they have lunch and happy hour specials so we might just return for those budget friendly prices! read more

The best quality of meat for yakiniku on the island!! Of course the price is a little higher but you are paying for top quality wagyu from Japan. The restaurant is located in Ward with plenty of parking on either side. They do ala carte but the better bang for your buck is their preset platters as I did. They also do a delicious garlic fried rice that goes perfectly with the grilled meats. They also have an excellent sake selection and you can bring your own bottles also for a corking fee. The service is always in point and very attentive if you're goin for a birthday or anniversary celebration. A highly recommended spot if you wanna spoil your other half with a great meal! read more

Han No Daidokoro - Preset platters with a variety of meats - Barbeque Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Arrived to Han no Daidokoro in a party of four. First time for three of us so we were thrilled that there was happy hour going on. We are early eaters so 5pm dinner works well for us. Food delicious. Loved the smaller and less expensive happy hour dishes. Allowed us to sample so many things! The dol sot bibimbap was nice. The assorted appetizers gave nice variety. The only thing I would not recommend was the seafood pancake which was VERY small and unmemorable. My favorites being the Nikomi (a savory full bodied soup), the yukhae, and almost all of the cuts of beef for the grill! So mouthwatering delicious that we ordered a second round of the beef for grilling! The delicious food perfectly complimented by impeccable service. From the moment we walked in and were greeted to the final goodbye. The staff here made us feel like old friends. The ambience made us feel like we were dining by ourselves. We knew there were others behind us when entering restaurant but we didn't see them, at all. We didn't hear them either. Only when we stood up and walked through the main dining room did we realize the restaurant was completely full except one empty table! Thank you Han no Daidokoro for a most memorable meal..! Thank you dinner companions for even better company! Will I be back? Looking forward to the next time already. read more

This restaurant has a happy hour from 5-6 PM! There are really nice Korean-Japanese fusion dishes with a focus on grilled meats. The meats are exceptional quality though pricy. The bibimbap bowl was really tasty as was the kimchi trio. The restaurant has a nice quiet ambiance and the servers are very quick. Great for a party of 4! read more

I have to write an update because I've been here so many times since my first experience and it's continued to be delicious and delightful!! My new favorite way to enjoy Han no Daidokoro is at lunch. I prefer Washu over Miyazaki beef anyway, so their $25 lunch set with 2 cuts of Washu beef (150g or 5.6 oz) is a dream deal for me. A waiter suggested I try the Hanging Tender & Bottom Flap cuts which I had not tried before and I ended up loving them even more than the usual Kalbi/Filet cuts I get! Both cuts are extremely savory with delicious beef flavor, still super tender, but not too fatty (my favorite kind of red meat!). All the sides with the set are phenomenal, from the perfectly fluffy Rice Factory white rice, to the crispy green salad, the yuzu miso soup, and a choice of 2 additional sides (I love the original house made fresh kimchi & their egg tofu). Service is always so great, the ambiance is good, and everything is clean and quick. I always love bringing first timers here too- everyone loves the experience. Will be back, as always! read more

Dined at Han No Daidokoro ward location for their premium wagyu. The service from our waiter was friendly and polite, although they didn't check in as often as we would have liked during the meal. As for the food, the wagyu quality was definitely there on some cuts a few pieces were excellent and literally melted in your mouth. That's always the highlight when you're going for wagyu. That said, the overall experience felt a little more like a regular BBQ spot than the premium experience I expected. It was good, but it felt fairly comparable to places like Hangan or Onkee Korea grill rather than something that really stood out as a Japanese premium bbq Still a solid place if you're craving wagyu BBQ, but I left feeling like it could have been just a little better overall for the price point. read more

Delicious, Delicious. Delicious! For those that value quality over quantity, who cares about eating the most delicious high quality food while watching their calorie intake, wants to have a satisfying meal with great service, and not worry about overeating, this is the place to be. The best barbecue meat I have ever tasted! The meat tasted like butter: melts in your mouth, super buttery, deliciously seasoned, 45 seconds each side, with the perfect dipping sauce, every bite is heaven. Reserving a table was easy. We got the $65 per person set lunch, the server told me that this is the best meat that they offer in this restaurant, the highest grade wagu beef from southern Japan that was only served to the Emperor. What A perfect way to celebrate our 16th wedding anniversary. The happy hour lunch special cold beer went super well with this meal. We finished our meal with a cold Pho noodle bowl, and it was also equally delicious and satisfying. I was so full after the set lunch. Highly Delicious recommend it, definitely will visit again. read more

My second time here and it was for my partner's birthday. We sprung for the A5 Miyazaki course dinner. Ordered extra washu rib eye and wow everything absolutely hit the mark. My favorite was the delicate beef sushi bite, did not expect something so incredibly decadent. The staff are above and beyond friendly. Most courses you sear yourself, but there are a couple they're meant to cook for you. The food was such high quality and so fresh. It is a treat of an experience for sure. Worth the money and hope to come back to celebrate something in the future. Mahalo to the team for making his birthday so special! read more

This is usually all our friends go to spots for birthdays and holidays. Went for my birthday dinner this week. Me and my friend ordered the Ohana platter I believe and assorted beef tongue. We added bibimbap, yukhoe and seafood pancake as well. We really liked the beef tongue, fresh yukhoe and seafood pancake. The top quality beef tongue was so tender and totally recommend to try. 2 stars knocked off for the bibimbap and some parts of the beef we had on the platter. We thought the rice was just a bit too mushy for our liking. One of the cuts of beef seems to have a weird odor like it was going bad and started to taste very beefy but not in a pleasant way. Hopefully they can improve on freshness of that beef served or make sure it isn't starting to taste weird. When we started to dine here back in 2021 the beef have been consistently fresh. Maybe this time it was just a miss. Service was very pleasant and friendly staff. Overall, we might return again. read more

Got the $85 coursed set and it was amazing from start to finish. The kimchi was super fresh and crunchy, and every cut of meat was tender and packed with flavor. My favorite was the filet because it was soo tender. The wasabi was freshly ground, which made such a difference, and the garlic rice was addictive. I liked letting it crisp up in the stone pot until it got that perfect golden crunch. Service was friendly and attentive, and I really appreciated that they could pace the course around our schedule. Whether you're in for a relaxed dinner or something quicker, they've got you covered. I'd absolutely come back again. read more

Absolutely delicious and amazing Wagyu! I did the $125/person Wagyu set course meal and it was totally worth the price for the quality of meat you get. This reminded me of Japan so much. The meat was SUPERB. I would highly highly recommend people try this place out. Service was also great. My favorite was... everything. the garlic rice stood out as a perfect side. And every single piece of meat was so tender flavorful and exactly what Japanese Wagyu is like. read more

We've been here one too many times and it never disappoints! Love how the quality of the food speaks for itself! Our ultimate favorite and go to is the top premium beef tongue, just Oishii!! The service is normally top tier but this last visit was meh, I'm not sure if it's because we're there often or what. We had the same server more than once and she wasn't as friendly this last visit. Menu is expensive, service should be better, don't you think? The food is a 10/10, going back again and again! read more

I took my partner here on a Sunday for his birthday. We were seated promptly after checking in for our reservation. We parked in the Ward Village parking lot that is right behind the restaurant. Our waitress was very friendly, I told her I was debating between getting the Mizayaki $150 course/pp for the both of us or ordering the Kaka'ako tasting menu of $65/pp (min 2 orders) and adding on the Chef's Taste Mizakaya. She said the Kaka'ako tasting menu is already a good amount of food. I thought that ordering in the ladder way would allow us to try more things while still experiencing the A5 Waygu, so we went with that. Everything came out promptly, the salad and kimchi was refreshing. The seared Washu Beef was a good start to the course but wasn't too memorable. My partner got the seaweed soup and I got the spicy soup. I would recommend the spicy soup if you like a little bit of spice, as it had almost the same ingredients as the seaweed egg drop soup, but either one was very enjoyable. The mixed entrails from the tasting menu wasn't very good in my opinion, all very chewy and hard to enjoy. The beef tongue and hanging tender for the washu beef was very good, I would recommend. The flank steak, bottom flap, and kalbi washu beef was also good but wasn't as tender was the tongue and hanging tender. On to the main event, the Miyazaki Wagyu chef's menu, the cuts were all so flavorful, fatty, and tender. I would rank: filet mignon, rib roll, chuck rib, sirloin, then liter meat. The liter meat and the sirloin was a bit too fatty for me. The chuck rib was on the verge of being too fatty, but it was thin so it didn't feel like overkill. They ended the meal with a nice cup of hot barely tea and gave us a complimentary cheesecake for my partner's birthday. The sparkler on-top was cute and a nice touch. Overall, I would really recommend this spot for any special occasion. If I was to come back, I definitely would rather get a mix of selective washu and waygu beef cuts to not be overwhelmed by the fattiness of the A5 wagyu. read more

Wait, Waikiki? . Ward happy hour: 5-6pm Waikiki happy hour: all day until Jan 25 . I appreciate the quality beef and loved everything! I prefer the Washu over Miyazaki premium cuts but my novice cooking skills might of botched the results. I left without the icky feeling of grease or smelling like a kitchen! Liver pâté- thic but not overwhelming, scoop her Nikomi- square-chunks of collagen in light broth Washu- tried a lot, fav is the beef tongue! Miyazaki- thick premium cuts + kimchee trio, potato salad Corn tea - fantastic, I'd buy a jug if I could . Originally planned to meet where hh is all day but I was absorbed in BTS world tour presales all day, and thus, auto-piloted my way to Ward. My friend went to their Waikiki venue...they r not equal. I offered to rush over to waikiki but she insisted I stay put since I had preemptively ordered thinking she was running late. . Did you know? Assorted beef tongue - is a menu item of different beef tongue cuts each with distinguishable tenderness. Only certain parts of beef tongue are used at kbbq (mid-section to back). The tip takes much too long to cook and is usually discarded or reserved for stew/soups. As shared by our kind n personable server (: . cheers read more

Han No Daidokoro - Happy hour menu available for an hour (: - Barbeque Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Came here before and the food definitely didn't disappoint. You can choose between the set menu or à la carte--this time, I went with the Lux Course, and it was a phenomenal choice. The overall experience was amazing. They clean the grill for you between rounds (a nice touch!), and while they don't cook the meat for you, they do provide clear instructions so you can get it just right. Wine and steak are a classic combo, but I opted to try one of their cocktails instead. I can't remember exactly what I ordered, but it was light, bright, and super refreshing--great balance to the richness of the meat. I also got the limited edition beef tongue, and it did not disappoint. Tried it both raw and lightly seared--absolutely delicious either way. Instead of regular rice, I ordered the bibimbap à la carte, which was a great call. Definitely recommend for a special night out or if you're craving high-quality Japanese BBQ with a bit of a luxurious touch. read more

1st time here and happily able to make their happy hour specials which is offered Monday to Friday, 5-6pm at the Kakaako location across from Wholefoods. My husband and I shared the Hot Stone Bibimbap, 2oz samplers of the Flank Steak and Kalbi and the Kimchi trio. Everything was delicious and high quality. Loved the kimchi, it was fresh tasting, mild with a tinge of spiciness, the meats grilled at our table were tender and umami rich in flavor and the bibimbap was mixed by our waiter at the table along with rich gochijuang paste and allowed to roast to crispiness before we devoured it. Our meal ended with complimentary hot tea that had a delightful nutty aroma and flavor. Great first experience! Will definitely return again to try their traditional full dinner offerings! read more

This was hands down THE BEST beef for yakiniku that I've had outside of Japan - the last time I'd had meat of this caliber was at Jojoen in Ueno during May 2024. I had made reservations for my Dad and I for 5pm on a Wednesday evening for 2/18/2026 and we were one of the first diners there. I wanted to experience a good yakiniku place that wasn't either GyuKaku, Korean BBQ, or AYCE during the few days I was going to be visiting Honolulu and this place looked to be it. I'd also heard from my hair stylist a couple days before how she had heard really good things about this place, especially for lunch. The servers here were very nice and polite, they were patient and pleasant to speak to. The interior was nice in that we had our own booth and there was enough space so the next party wasn't right next to us. The $75 Washugyu course we decided on was fantastic! All the cuts of meat were equally high quality and each piece was so tender, juicy and just delightful. The washu nigiri was heavenly. All in all, it was more than enough food for the two of us. Even the salad and Korean seafood pancake were excellent. The ice cream was the only thing that could've been a bit better - parts of the mascarpone one that I got were hard and icy. My Dad got the matcha one and it was better. Prices are more reasonable for lunch and I'd come back again if it was for a special occasion, as the total with tax and tip for the $75 course was about $200. You do get what you pay for here, though, which is great service and quality food. read more

Han No Daidokoro - Barbeque Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Had such an amazing experience here. Definitely a spot worth the hype. The quality of the wagyu was unreal, beautiful marbling, super tender, and literally melts in your mouth. Loved the variety of cuts they brought out, each one labeled and presented so nicely. You can really taste the difference in each piece. Cooking it fresh at the table made it even better, especially dipping it in the egg and sauces The presentation was also top tier, from the wooden box setup to the little details like the branded bone and flower garnish. Even the sides and fried rice were flavorful and well done, not just an afterthought. And ending with ice cream was the perfect finish. Service was attentive and helpful, walking us through the different cuts and how to enjoy them. Definitely on the pricier side, but 100% worth it for a special occasion or if you're craving high-quality wagyu. Would absolutely come back! read more

The name Han No Daidokoro might be hard to remember and may be difficult to pronounce accurately, but after dining here, you will remember and say it with precision. This place is located in Ward Village, across from Whole Foods, next to Istanbul restaurant, at the corner of Kamakee and Queen St. When you read the name, it's Japanese. When you go inside, look around, and look at the menu, it feels very Korean because there are many similar items. Well, it's just that! A Korean inspired restaurant from Japan serving A5 Mizayaki Wagyu (and US Wagyushu too). The name does translate to "Han's Kitchen". Started with the Avocado Kim Chee. This was good. Well-seasoned and nicely prepared. Fresh, creamy avocado with Ssamjang. The Meat Sashimi Assortment was good. Came with Mizayaki Beef Sashimi, Mizayaki Beef Yukhoe, and Seared Washu Beef. The beef sashimi needed to get to room temp or else you're eating semi-frozen beef sashimi, which was a little odd because of the firmness, but . The beef yukhoe was good. The sweet sauce was delicious and definitely helped balance out the rich and fattiness of the meat. The seared Washu beef was not bad. This one needed a bit more sauce because the cut was size was thick and large. The accompanying wasabi, yuzu kocho, raw garlic slices, and scallions helped. We got a nice piece of fat to oil up the grill. All the meats we tried were super fresh and excellent quality. The meats were melt in your mouth tender and nicely sliced prepared and seasoned. The Top Quality Beef Tongue was amazing! Tender and delicious! Might've been the best piece of meat of the meal! We also ordered the Mizayaki Beef Chef's Cut. Came with Chuck Rib, Rib Finger, Rib Roast, Rib Cap, Sirloin, and Filet Mignon. Wow! Everything was so good! Assorted Grilled Vegetables was good. Simple selection: came with onions, bell peppers, zucchini, button mushrooms, and a section of corn. Overall, this was a memorable experience with amazing Mizayaki Beef that was fresh, well-prepared, and beautifully presented. The inside was clean, spacious, modern, and wasn't smoky at all. Our sever was awesome. Super helpful, friendly, patient, informative, and attentive. Made us feel very comfortable and provided top-notch, professional service. Thank you! The prices might sting a little, but worth it for the quality and experience. We will definitely come back! read more

Multiple recommendations later, a visit to the Waikiki location was eminent. Course menu for 2 was the perfect size of all their favorites cuts to be enjoyed. I think the beef sushi was a great first bite with bright intense flavor that complimented the beef well. Garlic fried rice was portioned by the waiter after presented in a sizzling bowl. The quality of each bite was portioned perfectly for one bite. The grill never needed adjustment to temperature and their stoves didn't fill the room with smoke. Atmosphere, quality of food and service A+. bonus was the great music - late 90's R & B and hip hop. . read more

Took advantage of their 5 year anniversary special. We had the 1:30pm seating and checked in at 1:15pm and were seated right away. As soon as we sat down our 11year old son said he loved the modern interior. We opted for the Miyazaki wagyu luxury course and added premium beef tongue and special kalbi for the son. Brad our server was awesome, explained every single dish, from the cut of meat to how you cook the meat about 40 seconds on each side. Of course we wanted our son to try some of the course meal so he did and he loved every bite. I forgot how yummy every dish is!!! Wish we could come here more often and maybe we will because they are lowering the price for the courses and they added lunch specials and happy hour.

Zoe was so friendly and gave wonderful suggestions for lunch. I ordered the beef tongue lunch set with the house made matcha ice cream. The lunch set came with a plate of beef tongue, rice, miso soup, tofu, salad and kimchi. I enjoyed every single bite of the beef tongue. It was flavorful and melted in my mouth. The meat slices are not too thin. The side dish portions are also generous. I even had leftovers to take home. I finished off my meal with the house made matcha ice cream. It was delightful! I wish I could have more. I like the atmosphere of the restaurant. It feels elegant and the booths are comfortable. I saw families dining together.

Raw or undercooked food is always a risk I suppose, but spending $400 just to end in serious stomach issues... that is not a risk I can recommend again. Food safety when you have raw egg and so many raw meats on a table grill where you have reused utensils is probably not the best idea. read more

One of the best restaurant experiences we've had anywhere in the world My wife and I travel a lot and eat at many restaurants around the world. We've had incredible food in many places -- but this experience truly stood out as one of the best. We came expecting maybe a 10/10 dinner... but honestly it turned out to be 100/10. First of all, the service was absolutely outstanding. Our server Yui was incredible -- attentive, kind, professional, and genuinely caring. She checked on us at the perfect moments and made sure everything was perfect without ever being intrusive. Restaurants are very lucky to have someone like her. The concept of grilling the meat at the table is already fun, but what made the difference is how much the staff cares. They came to help cook the meat perfectly and guided us through the experience. I'm a serious steak lover, and I can honestly say the meat here was unbelievable. It literally melted in the mouth. Easily some of the best meat I've had in a restaurant. Everything was fantastic: * the salad * the garlic rice * the soup * and of course the premium meat Every single dish was delicious and perfectly prepared. The entire team works with incredible professionalism and hospitality. The atmosphere, the food quality, and the service all come together to create something truly special. If you are on the Big Island and love great food and amazing service, you absolutely have to visit this place. A special thank you again to Yui for making our evening so memorable. She truly elevated the whole experience. We left extremely happy and satisfied and will 100% come back next time we are here. Highly, highly recommended. read more

Came here on a Wednesday at 5 PM with no reservation and my boyfriend and I were able to walk in. Everyone here is very friendly and we were promptly seated. They have the set menu and an a la carte menu to choose from so we went ahead and chose the Miyazaki set menu. This location is really different compared to their Japan location since you need to cook on your own in contrast to having a professional cook for you. All the meats were delectable and we enjoyed being taught about which area of the Miyazaki cow we were eating prior to cooking it. Since all the meats were so decadent and rich, we left full. This is a great spot to go to if you enjoy wagyu. read more
