    We came here on a Saturday night with a reservation. I haven't been here in years but I remember loving this place. I wanted to give it another try. I ordered a lychee chuhi. And for entrées, we ordered the pork belly shabu with ichiriki broth. The broth is very tasty. I usually always order sukiyaki broth at shabu shabu but this might be better!! I love all the toppings and sides it comes with. We both got Udon and then ordered a side of enoki mushrooms. I remember these used to come w the set but when ordering it on the side, they do give a decent amount! Service is always great here. Parking i believe was $4 for 2 hours!

    Delicious lunch

    Let's just say I've been here for years and still hands down the BEST shabu place I've had! Meat qualities are amazing! I've always love the angry goma with short rib! Added the wagyue last time with chicken meat balls. Amazing broth and I love the service every time I'm there! The owners and employees are always welcoming. The ambiance is of the traditional Japanese decor. I too love the desserts. Always walked out with full belly lol. I love here bc of quality of meats and it's very important when you are eating shabu shabu. I will continue to come here whether I'm in town.

    This is now my second time eating here, and it definitely won't be my last! The location is pretty convenient next to Ala Moana, but there are limited parking options. I have lucked out both times that I've gone and found street spots just in front of the restaurant. I believe there's a small paid lot behind the building, but I hate parking in paid lots cause they're often expensive. If you can walk or get dropped off, then there's no worry on parking! For seating, there are seemingly two main options. They have in-ground seats that require you to essentially sit on the floor, as well as a more traditional booth seating. If you have any mobility limitations or challenges, you should request a booth when making a reservation. The booths do have small pillow style cushions on them, but they are a bit thin, so the hard seating isn't super comfy. Probably better for their table turnaround times though since you're maybe less inclined to loiter... If you're in a wheelchair, it may be harder to navigate the tighter spaces and I'm not sure they'd have many, if any*, options. *disclaimer is we didn't have anyone in our group in a wheelchair, so may have just not noticed the option(s) that would have been accessible. The staff are polite and are pretty good at finding the balance with being attentive but not annoying. They're also helpful if you need guidance on ordering or if you have questions on the menu. While it's not exactly a "budget" option, the food is reasonably priced and seemingly justified for the quality. I ordered the shabu shabu set option and they made some veggie swaps for me, which was nice. You get sauce options included, but the broth was flavorful enough that I ended up not even using them. If you enjoy local Japanese food and/or shabu shabu, this is worth a try!

    We went on a Thursday evening around 7pm and were seated immediately. They have options for table seating or the Japanese-style floor seating, but the latter section was full. I ordered the dinner shabu short rib set which comes with assorted vegetables, rice, udon, and yuzu kosho and sesame paste sauces. You also have a choice for the main soup (I picked the yuzu one), and the food comes out pretty quickly. The meat quality was pretty good, cooking quickly in the soup and staying juicy, while the vegetables seemed decent. I went with my partner that ordered a nabe set, and the total came out to ~$80 after tax and tip. Unfortunately at that price point, I'd rather do an AYCE option to get more meat, but this is a good try if you're in the area.

    This restaurant is much smaller than the other location(s?), so very easy to miss while driving pass Pi'ikoi! However, what it doesn't miss on is flavor! They have Paitan, which is my favorite broth ever at any hot pot spot! My server was such a nice server, I really felt taken care of. As busy as he was, he took his time to make sure I had everything I needed for a great meal! I also asked for a sauce he recommended and he definitely delivered. His name was Chris, i believe. The cuts of the wagyu were perfect and very melt like butter fatty goodness. I always enjoy the tsukune! The stick to make the meatball things with the spoon. Not sure if one of the spoons I had was too big and I am not sure that was the right stick for it. It was still bamboo at least! A must have is the enoki mushrooms!!!! The mushroom medley is by far my favorite apps here. I enjoyed a nice little salty, savory, umami deliciousness! I will probably do the same thing I did. I went during the midweek last week Thursday! The one reason I can't stop bragging about the service is, I know it's sooo easy for large tables to be more tended to from servers by default, but I still had great service and great food! Overally, I will definitely be back and will probably order the same and request for the same server! Price wise, it is a bit on the "abover average" range, but for what it's worth... the quality of the meat and service surpasses more than exceptional! I hope to try the Pork or Kobe set. You can never go wrong with the Wagyu though, so that and Enoki is a must! All staff were super friendly and checked in on me quite frequently. One of the more caucasian busser/server may have been a touch overbaring and almost cleared something I wasn't quite done yet. But, overall.... A great experience and I will be back for more!

    One of the best Japanese restaurants on the island. Bentos are large and only $20. Shave ice really good and only $6. Food was fresh and good quality. Service was efficient. Atmosphere felt like Japan. Next door to thrills ice cream. There is parking behind building or you can walk from Ala moana.

    Came to ichiriki for their late night happy hour. Overall the experience was nice. The tables are sectioned off with walls so it makes it a bit harder to call for your waiter unless you see them passing by the back of you. We found ourselves looking for our waiter a few times so attentiveness wasn't 5/5. But they were helpful in answering all of our questions! The food was good. The Korean fried chicken is always a hit, the sauce is particularly good! Although I do feel like their prices are a bit high for what you get out of the hotpot meal. I'm glad we went during happy hour so we could get some pupus that were discounted. Overall a nice experience with no major issues! Definitely give them a try if you haven't yet! Maybe even request the traditional Japanese floor seating if you'd like a more "authentic" experience

    Ichiriki is my go to hot pot/nabe place! I've been coming in here for year and love the chanko sets! Chanko sets come with a variety of veggies (usually Napa cabbage and carrots) piece of chicken, arabiki, 1 shrimp, tofu, mushroom with your choice of protein. You also pick your broth, I prefer the Ichiriki but have also tried pirikara and curry. You also get to pick ramen, udon, or zosui. Personally the curry goes best with zosui because they give cheese too! Usually service is pretty good. Food always comes out fast, however this last time our sever didn't check on us that much for water refills which was unfortunate. Happy hour is until 6p everyday then there's a late night happy hour from 9p. Small parking lot in the back that you can pay by phone I believe.

    Ichiriki has been a recurring character since my college days - a loyal sidekick through late nights and post-finals celebrations. It's been a minute since my last dip in their bubbling broth, but when a friend visiting town suggested a trip down memory lane, we rounded up the UH squad for a nostalgic dinner. Reservations exist, but lines? Never seen one. Location: On Piikoi St, sandwiched between Kona and Hopaka Sts. It's one of the more noticeable storefronts in the building, so no GPS gymnastics required. Parking: I saved gas by strolling over (perks of living nearby), but for everyone else - park at the corner lot diagonal from the restaurant. You know which one. Atmosphere: Cozy izakaya vibes - part sit-down tables, part tatami setup complete with zabuton cushions. The tatami section = shoes off, so beware of which socks you wear that day. If sitting seiza makes your knees cry, fear not - there's legroom under the table so you don't feel like you're in posture purgatory. Once that gas burner fires up, it's officially shabu-shabu o'clock. Expect a chorus of chatter - families, friends, and pau hana hangouts in full swing. Food: We went for a broth buffet - pirikara, paitan, curry, and one of their newer fusion flavors (mine had a name my brain refused to retain... rhyme game strong). Each broth arrives with a mini harvest festival tray: a bowl of rice, a generous serving of vegetables, tofu, mushrooms, and thinly sliced protein of your choice, plus ramen or udon noodles. Sauces on the table are self-serve. It's very Stardew Valley meets hot pot - you, the humble farmer, reaping the fruits (and, uh... livestock) of your labor. Wholesome, hearty, and just a touch existential. My ritual? Ladle the broth onto rice for that ochazuke-esque bite, top with the cooked goodies, and finish with a drizzle of sauce. Portion sizes are kanak attack worthy - I was so full that my udon noodles were basically chilling in an onsen watching me struggle. The only bummer was receiving the wrong broth, which I didn't realize until after the fact. Still good, just not my destined flavor soulmate. Drinks: Waters all around for us, but they've got a decent selection of both boozy and not-so-boozy options if you'd rather sip than simmer. Service: Sweet waiter, slightly scatterbrained energy - clearly juggling too many pots (literally). Almost served another table's dinner? Check. Replacement pot also wrong? Double check. Since my broth was a new menu item, I had no baseline for the taste until the receipt revealed I'd been catfished by a soup. Everyone else's orders? Perfection. Mine? Chaos. Toss in a phantom menu item no one ordered... well, it added some unintended plot spice to the night. (Credit where due - our waiter fixed the bill. Always check your receipts, folks.) Price: Around $47 - a bit steep for shabu-shabu, but you'll waddle out feeling satisfied. Would I return? No question. I'm chalking up the mishap as a one-off since Ichiriki's been consistently solid over the years. Until next time, sweet broth...

    Strawberry shaved ice with mochi balls and ice cream underneath!

    Another office birthday celebrated here!!! Rib Eye Shabu Shabu with Ginger Salt broth is my new go to, with udon. Why? More protein. The same goes for half our team, Yum! We love this restaurant, and we wipe out every morsel of food, I am NOT kidding. In fact, the birthday celebrant will also take your extra rice and sauce if necessary, even though the restaurant would be more than happy to bring more upon request. Our newest co-worker opted for katsu teishoku. At first "look" he wasn't too enthused... but upon "tasting" his food, he thought the chicken was flavored really well and he was pleasantly surprised. Yes, he too, wiped out everything, except maybe a few slivers of cabbage. Dessert is usually strawberry shaved ice with ice cream and mochi... but this time I tried the Taiwanese mango shaved ice with ice cream, mochi and azuki beans. Oh my, it'll be SO hard to choose between the two in the future. The mango flavors are fresh, tangy, and sweet, and it was so yummy! New blessings: Free Kids Meal (10 years old and under) is being offered on a Tuesdays and Wednesdays!! See photo. Parking- DO park in the lot behind the restaurant. DON'T scan the QR code in the lot. The lot's sign has an extra note from ICHIRIKI, recommending that you scan the QR Code INSIDE the restaurant to receive the first 90 minutes of parking FREE and enjoy lower rates. There is an option to increase time if you're running over, and you'll get an email confirmation. We sat in the tatami area this time, which requires removing shoes, stepping up a pair of stairs and having your feet dangling below the table. Walk in with no stairs is also available, so no worries there. Restrooms are bright and clean and they have a women's restroom which accommodates wheelchairs. (They are still working on giving us back door access to the parking lot, after they move all the stored items, heh heh.). Until then, let's get our steps in by walking around the building to the front entrance! Enjoy!

    For some reason, whenever I visit, there's a long wait time. Parking can also be difficult to find at this location, especially when they're busy. I recommend trying out the 'Aiea location if this happens to you too. The ambiance is similar to the 'Aiea location and share the same menu.

    Great service and good quality food. We ordered the shabushabu and added more meat which is great. Parking is in the back. Scan the QR code inside the restaurant for $2 each hour.

    Dinner in Honolulu, Hawaii... My friend really wanted to dine at Ichiriki! She called and made a reservation without having to leave her name! I think I have been here before, but I have no photos and no review to prove it. LOL! I couldn't remember where to park! Luckily, my gave me directions and scanned the QR code for parking payment. Parking: behind the building. Enter the lot from Kona Street. It's the same shared parking lot with Air Park Karaoke. Ichiriki is an old school establishment. There's regular tables and chairs for seating - and also traditional-styled seats on the floor (your legs will extend under the table into a hole below where there's a tatami mat). Service was friendly. Staff checked on us appropriately. My friend asked our server to explain the ordering process to me. She also asked him to make my meatballs for me... thank you! The raw meat arrived in a cutout bamboo and had to be scooped out in small pieces, then dropped into the broth. I would have been messy! I ordered the kombu broth which came with goma and ponzu dipping sauces and a bowl of toppings. They made the broth tastier. I poured my veggies and meats into my half of the split pot. The Ramen came a bit later and I added thise noodles to the long rice, sausage, and mushrooms. This was a very filling meal! I wasn't able to finish! Thanks for a fun experience! Note: convenient restroom is in the hallway that leads out to the parking lot.

    What are the main differences between the lunch and dinner menus, other than dinner being $10 more for what appears to be the same courses?

    Smaller portions at lunch

    What time do they open on Saturdays?!

    11am

    Is this restaurant keto friendly?

    You can eat keto, eliminate the rice! Can eat only meats and veggies if you choose.

    What time are the early and late night happy hours?

    Late Night Happy Hour starts at 9 pm until close. TOTALLY worth it. I forget about Early Happy Hour, maybe 5 pm I think? Just call them and ask!

    Does this place have any MSG in their dishes/nabe stock?

    They dont add any additional MSG besides what is already inside the shoyu (maybe dashi?) that they use. So whatever has shoyu probably contains MSG.

    I've eaten enough hot pot over the years to know exactly what this place is trying to be. The…read moreproblem is that it feels like nobody here cares enough to execute it. The first thing I noticed wasn't the broth. It wasn't the vegetables. It wasn't the meat. It was the cleanliness. Water was spilled across the table. The window ledges were dusty and dirty. The surfaces around our booth looked neglected. For a restaurant built around a communal dining experience where you're sitting there staring at the table and surroundings for an hour or two, details matter. Then came the service. Our server seemed irritated by the simple act of having customers. I asked for a watermelon juice that was listed on the menu and got a curt response that there was no more watermelon. Restaurants run out of things. That's not the issue. The issue was the attitude. I was there with my wife and our two young kids, ages 2 and 4. When you're dining with little ones, you notice very quickly whether a restaurant is welcoming families or merely tolerating them. This felt like the latter. The food itself was okay. That's almost the problem. The vegetables looked like they came straight from a grocery store produce section. The broth was fine. The ingredients were fine. Everything was technically acceptable, but nothing felt thoughtful or memorable. What frustrated me most was the gap between what this place could be and what it currently is. Hot pot is one of those meals where you're paying for more than ingredients. You're paying for comfort. Hospitality. Atmosphere. The feeling that someone actually cares about the experience. Instead, I found myself staring at dirty surfaces, wiping spilled water from the table and wondering why nobody seemed particularly interested in being there. There are too many great places to eat in Hawaii to spend time and money on an experience that feels this indifferent. I wanted to like it. I left disappointed.

We typically always get the beef and pork as our meat selection and enjoy their noodle, veggie and Korean rice cake add-ins. Service is fine. They keep our drinks refilled so I can't complain.

    Mikiya Wagyu Shabu House brings its top-tier Japanese hot pot experience to Oahu, located right on…read moreKapiolani Blvd. It's a great spot for an all-you-can-eat (AYCE) style feast, though there are a few tier restrictions to keep in mind. They offer four different packages: Basic ($42/$48), Silver ($52/$58), Gold ($68/$78), and Diamond ($88/$98). The lower price in each tier is reserved for "Members," which requires a $28 annual fee. Keep in mind that everyone at your table must order the same tier package. We opted for the Gold Wagyu Set specifically to try the Japanese A5 Wagyu. If you've ever wondered if there's a real difference between American, Australian, and Japanese Wagyu, the answer is a resounding yes! The Japanese A5 has incredible marbling and literally melts in your mouth, whereas the other two have a much firmer, traditional texture. The only catch with the Gold tier is that the A5 Chuck Ribeye and Shoulder Cut are limited to one order per person. If you want completely unrestricted, unlimited A5 Wagyu, you'll need to upgrade to the Diamond Set. Aside from the meat, the Seasonal Seafood platter was a massive hit--just be sure to arrive early, as it can run out later in the evening. For broths, you can choose up to two flavors per pot; we saw Sukiyaki, House Broth, Spicy Miso, and Tomato on the menu. The restaurant is kind of kid-friendly (don't let them touch the hotpt) and a great place to gather, but we did hit two minor setbacks: 1. Billing error: They accidentally tried to charge our friend's two-year-old child as an adult. They removed it quickly once we pointed it out, but keep an eye on your receipt. 2. Parking situation: If you park in the building, you absolutely must scan the QR code to avoid a hefty ticket. Strangely, there are no QR codes by the elevators or downstairs--only on the entrance ramp box and a few lower-level pillars. I had to contact parking management to sort out a ticket because of this, though thankfully they only charged me for our dining time. Overall, the food is excellent and definitely worth it for a special treat, even if the membership pricing structure leaves a sour taste in my mouth TBH.

But still felt pretty reasonable for the variety you get. There's a good selection of meats, vegetables, and sides, with some items available on the rotating conveyor belt and others at the buffet bar. I especially liked being able to grab a little bit of everything and customize the meal to what I was craving. Overall, there was a nice variety of food, and everything was fresh and satisfying. Definitely a solid option if you're looking for an affordable AYCE shabu shabu dinner in Hawaii!

They also have extras like dumplings, shumai, and other items to choose from, so there's a pretty good variety. Service has always been good when we come here, and I like that you can get a refill on your soup base. The only downside is parking. There isn't free parking at the restaurant, so we usually find street parking and walk over or park at Walmart. The bathrooms also aren't very close and you'll need to get a code to use them. Overall, we really enjoy coming here, especially for lunch. Good variety, good service, and you definitely leave full!

    I love Kamitoku. I…read morelove Kamitoku so much that I have recommended it to everyone I know. I have even recommended it to people who have and will probably never step foot on Oahu! That's how much I love Kamitoku. How revolutionary is it to use beef ramen broth (Beefy Wild) as shabu shabu broth. What genius came up with that?? The meat is also thick (unlike OTHER chain shabu shabu places that rhyme with Kabuya) and fills you up quickly (even in the set meals). I usually get the $17 eye round set that comes with meat, broth, veggies, and ramen noodles. I love the Beefy Wild and could drink the broth. Sometimes I get a side of rice and make a lil porridge with the broth. But you cannot go wrong with anything at Kamitoku. I love this place, so please never go out of business!

Split pot, each person picks a set (can be different), downside was broth refills are $1, which I thought was tacky, considering you do all your own cooking at your table. So I just added water to my pot, worked just fine. Space is small, but every table has their own area, which is nice for privacy when talking over a meal. MENU: Limited, no seafood on the hot pot menu, just FYI. They also have an AYCE option too.

    Honolulu Hotpot Hale is a great choice and nice restaurant when you're looking for a more premium…read morehot pot experience than its all-you-can-eat counterparts. If you come with a big appetite, you might spend more than you would at AYCE, but the meats and vegetables here are very high quality. The broths that we tried were all very tasty - the Chinese Sauerkraut Soup is very unique - definitely sour but not unpleasantly so. The spicy soups have a strong mala flavor that will make your tongue and lips numb, but be careful, the "Hale Medium Spicy Soup" is already pretty spicy, and the "Hale Spicy Soup" is very spicy! Everyone gets their own pot and soup here, so you can order to your own spice level. We got a half yard of the beef toro which was nice and fatty as well as a half yard of the beef shank which was much leaner. Ordering both gave a nice balance between the meats. The seafood and vegetable sets are also well thought out, but you can always order individual items if you don't want everything in the set. There is no sauce bar - your soup comes with a choice of dipping sauce instead. It's usually not too crowded and the service is friendly and efficient. Their weekday deals are pretty nice as well, definitely take advantage of those if you're looking for a weeknight dinner!

I had to keep readjusting the levels, because my broth actually overflowed from the heat. My mom's burner turned off. The canister was out of gas and they had to put a new one in. The broths are $5.99 per person. Two people got the chicken broth, one the sauerkraut and I got the satay. The broths were a bit salty and mine was thick. Maybe that's why it boiled over. We came on a Tuesday and got a good deal. We purchased a yard of short rib $39.99 and got a yard of beef toro for free. It was BOGO free yard of meat mix and match. We shared the S1 seafood with shrimp, fish fillet, abalone and squid $19.99 and the V2 vegetable with cabbage, broccoli, chrysanthemum greens and spinach $9.99. We also got the V6 glass noodles and sweet potato noodles $9.99. I will say that everything was extremely fresh and on point. The food was really good, especially with the sweet sesame dipping sauce. The service was also great. While I really liked this hotpot place, it wasn't my favorite.

We also had the Mushroom Broth and it delicious. You can definitely taste the chicken broth. The protein portion is generous for the price. The vegetables and noodles are fresh. I really like hot pot style, you can customize your meal according to your taste. The service was outstanding and the wonderful lady was always refilling our water. Small dining area, but maximize the space without feeling cramp. My only complaint was the air exhaust on the ceiling that look like mold. Not a good look. Hopefully the owner can take care of that soon.

    Hot Pot Heaven in McCully Shopping Center understands the assignment. This is not an…read moreall-you-can-eat place, and it is not pretending otherwise. You pick your broth and meats up front, then head to the refrigerators in back for the rest, which makes the whole meal feel more practical than theatrical. The room is no-frills, the service is solid without being especially warm, and the BYOB policy fits the place better than any design effort would have The draw is still the broth. The beef broth really does drink like pho broth, and the restaurant's own menu more or less admits that by calling it a favorite for pho lovers. The tom yum has real sharpness and stays lively through the meal. The meat selection is broader than the room suggests, with ribeye, short rib, lamb, pork belly, pork shoulder, tripe, and tendon all on the menu. The vegetable and noodle selection is also better than average: bok choy, choi sum, ong choy, watercress, taro, lotus root, bamboo shoot, enoki, king oyster, fresh saimin, udon, glass noodle, vermicelli, and pho noodle, among others What holds it at 4 stars is that the math can get a little awkward. It is not expensive plate by plate, but somehow the total often lands near all-you-can-eat territory, except without the same range. Although if you were to ask my wife, this a solid 5 star place. Still, that misses why people come here. This place feels built around broth first, not abundance for its own sake, and that makes it easier to forgive a sauce station that is merely fine and a service style that does the job without much flourish

Staff were still prepping and wiping down tables, but we were seated promptly in a booth. As first-timers, we had a bit of a language barrier asking for recommendations, but the server was helpful in pointing out popular dishes on the menu. Portion sizes of what we ordered are generous and great for sharing with a small group (there were 3 of us). ​The food came out quickly, and most of it was fantastic: ​Dan Dan Noodles: Amazing flavor, well-balanced spice, almost like a delicious mapo tofu sauce over noodles. ​Crispy Fish: Excellent texture, mild, and stir-fried with fresh bell peppers and onions. ​Cumin Beef: Way too spicy, despite explicitly ordering it mild. ​The main disappointment was service recovery. When we mentioned the beef was too spicy, the server simply suggested we dip the meat in water to rinse off the spice--not really the solution you expect at a restaurant. We ended up ordering the sweet and sour pork ribs instead. While the food quality is strong, the service handling left a bit to be desired, especially with several other staff members just standing around empty tables.

After seeing all the reviews for the cold noodle, I decided to try it with rice noodles, a side order of their delicious beef which reminds me of Mian and Bao's beef, a marinated egg, and their spicy fungus. Would definitely order again. Their egg was perfectly cooked, nice and jammy in the middle. It was a lot of food that reheated well the next day. I found it to be spicy in the sense of warming, and flavorful but not searing off your mouth. Definitely get this with their mung bean soup. It is cold, sweet, and refreshing. Parking: there is a rotating lift with an attendant. I would suggest bringing cash, as other means are not always available. Parking was $2 for the time we were there.
