    Hokate, Ikura, eel and poke.
    Linda W.

    Omg I don't know why I keep passing this place by. I've been to Hawaii a few times and each time I just walk pass this place. This place makes the bomb handrolls. Im not an inari fan, but I bet you its prob really good. One thing was that it closed early at 4pm instead of 6pm. That was so sad because I wanted to get some rolls en route to the airport. I had the hokate, ikura, eel, and the poke handrolls. They were so fresh. The seaweed comes in a plastic wrap so it doesnt get soggy. Its really good. You order and then they make the rolls. I had to make sure the lady got it correct because she seemed a little confused. She pulled out a little paper and I pointed to the items. It's part of a strip along Don Quitote. Maybe thats why I kept walking pass it. However, don't let the appearance of this little stall deceive you.

    Tried the inari bombs with shoyu ahi and spicy ahi. The flavors were good and fresh, and I liked the idea of turning poke into a fun, handheld bite. That said, it was just okay for me overall. I wish the poke pieces were cut smaller and more bite-sized -- it would've made the texture better balanced and easier to eat in one clean bite. Creative concept and solid flavor, just hoping for a little more refinement in the portion size next time.

    Having missed out on the first anniversary special of $1 inari bombs at Inari Factory earlier this year, I was glad it did a year and a half anniversary with $1.50 inari bombs! Gonna be $2 at two years? Inari Factory is an eatery by Don Quijote itself, so you might find some of their items similar to the poke/seafood bar inside. It's located right outside at the food court. With any kind of sushi, the quality of rice and the preparation of the rice is of utmost importance, so seeing a sign that the rice is nanatsuboshi rice from Hokkaido is a great sign. It was prepared well enough. The anniversary special only pertained to specific toppings, and you can choose from inari bombs or hand rolls. We went with Unagi, Tobikko, and Ahi Tuna bombs with Spicy Tuna and Crab Salad hand rolls. Everything was pretty good. Portions were generous. Flavor was all right. Unagi was the best, followed by the crab salad. Nothing exciting, but still more than acceptable and would return to try other items. Service was efficient and I like how everything was nicely prepared and neatly boxed.

    Hawaii is a melting pot of its multiethnic population. This environment brings people together from all over which also introduces fusion cuisine. Step in Inari Factory (IF), which brings together Hawaii and Japan. Poke, which has also gained popularity nationwide, is a Hawaiian dish that uses raw fish that is combined with seasonings (i.e. sea salt, chili flakes) and condiments (i.e. Hawaiian seaweed, kukui nuts, onions). Pair this with inari, which is sushi rice that is stuffed into a seasoned deep-fried tofu that is shaped in a rectangle box. IF opened in January 2024, located in one of the stalls of the left-hand side entrance of Don Quijote. They boast these fancy inaris that is topped with assorted toppings, with popular ones being fresh ahi and salmon. I've noticed IF via social media and my sister previously bought me some to try when they had a promotion, but I never made my way over to their store front until just recently. In my recollection, the inari was good but was advised of the cost. Keep in mind that Japan rice is used here, so it may seem pricey, but in my opinion, this is justified of its high-quality ingredients, execution and final product. A former colleague recently came back to the islands from Japan with her nephew and wanted to meet up. We agreed on Don Quijote as the office we were going to is just across the street next. After our business matters were settled, they wanted to grab a quick lunch before going shopping at Ala Moana, and I suggested IF of its proximity and originality as these poke inari are not available in Japan. To seal the deal, I advised that it was their last day of their 1.5 yr anniversary sale of $1.50 for either inari or hand rolls. Our lucky stars were sure aligned as there was a minimal line as we arrived at 12:36pm. We were third in line and while waiting we took out our cameras and started snapping away. The next thing I noticed the line grew and now had about 10 people behind us in line waiting. The anniversary sale offerings were limited as salmon options were sold out. You could select from spicy ahi poke, shoyu ahi poke, imitation crab, ocean salad, tobiko, and unagi. For the hand rolls, they had spicy ahi poke, shoyu ahi poke, imitation crab and natto. Majority of these items were premade so ordering was simple and quick. You told the staff your items which was marked on a sheet and another staff packaged your order accordingly. The line moved quickly. After paying, you're given a number. Within a few minutes our number was called and off we went. We opted to eat at the dining area of the food court at Don Quixote to save time. We snapped a few pics and started to dig in. I got 2 each of the spicy ahi and shoyu ahi poke inari, along with 1 spicy ahi hand roll. I was impressed on the execution as the flavors were bold and fish quality. The rice was perfect. I was concerned about possibly mushy rice and unnecessary teriyaki sauce drizzle on top as I've experienced at other places. Overdressing the protein is not my cup of tea when it comes to seafood. My out of town guests were flabbergasted of this concept as poke inari doesn't exist where they're from. They were in awe of the fish quality and the flavors. Huge hit and an amazing, quick and tasty lunch where it didn't break the bank. Overall, a great first experience ordering in person at IF where I'm indeed a fan. Although the anniversary sale is over, the inari here would make a meal or Scooby snack that's tasty and satisfying.

    Unagi & Seared Salmon
    Shelby I.

    I was so excited for this place because I love inari sushi! This place is located outside of Don Quixote Kaheka. They specialize in inari bombs or stuffed inari but they also have hand rolls or temaki. I decided to try their deluxe unagi and seared salmon. They costed a bit extra (+$1 each). The regular inari bombs were 2 for $5 included some poke selection, imitation crab, ocean salad & tobiko. At 2 for $7 I was expecting a pretty decent sized inari. I was a bit disappointed when it was pretty small (2 biter for me). The unagi did have shredded tamago (scrambled egg) under the unagi. The seared salmon was also disappointing because it was fully cooked, not just seared on top. Maybe I misunderstood? Idk. The inari wrapper or abura-age was also a bit dry for my liking. You definitely need a drink to wash it all down. Overall, I'm glad I tried this place out but would not return.

    Still 5 stars all the way! Ingredients are fresh and delicious. The staff is efficient and friendly. So glad this business is still going strong! Their anniversary special is a great deal but even at regular price this place is well worth it. It you haven't stopped by to give them a try you should.

    @fortunefoodfinds: "RICE n' shine! A variety of Inari Bombs (sushi rice stuffed in seasoned fried tofu pouches) from Inari Factory outside of Don Quijote Honolulu. Aburi wagyu beef, aburi fresh salmon, aburi unagi, spicy ahi poke, shoyu ahi poke, imitation crab, ocean salad, n' gari ginger. Can be a snack or meal, but getting 8pcs is the best deal! Btw check out Don Don Donki's mini canvas tote. If you DON know, now you know!" Staff: friendly Interior: window stand Exterior: shared picnic style table seating Wait time: 10 mins Parking: lot Overall comments: it's been a minute since I last had Inari Factory. What's changed? The portion size of the inari bombs n' the topping options. Last year the inari bombs were at least double in size n' they used to offer garlic shrimp. Other than that, the sushi rice n' tofu pouches are still very tasty n' the toppings were piled on just enough to not make a complete mess. The 8pc deal is worth it n' with other food vendors around, you're most likely going to share it.

    Spicy salmon
    Pearl C.

    Came here during their $1 anniversary sale which was super dealz!! Luckily I went on their first day around 2pm and there wasn't much of a line to order but I did have to wait 45 min to receive the food. It's a really small window and kitchen those poor workers couldn't really work efficiently in there. I ordered the spicy salmon, spicy ahi, shoyu salmon, shoyu tuna & unagi. All of them were good but our favorite was the shoyu salmon. We didn't care much for the unagi - it laid on a bed of shredded tamago and didn't really go together. They were advertised as their new "easy to eat" size so I was expecting them to be really small but was surprised they were still decently sized since I got full after eating about 6 of them! I'll def come back to try their regular sizes!

    All of these was smackin! The girl forgot outlr 2 shoyu poke inari
    Ronilynn Chiyo B.

    We ordered the specials they offered for their 2nd year anniversary & every piece we ordered was pretty yummy! But it would've been nice if we had all of our orders. The girl forgot our 2 shoyu poke inari. Thought my other half had gotten a separate box or container with it while I was paying but he told me no. We was gonna call but they don't have a phone number. Total came out to nearly $26. Knocked a star down because of that & there's no phone number/a way to contact them about it. UPDATE: I've returned to the place & showed them the pic & amount paid of what was given on the day it happened & let them know it was hard to get in contact with them considering there was no contact information if something went wrong etc. The same aunty who rung me up that day was the cashier today so we got the order correctly, kindly helped & fixed the girl's error & gave me the missing 2 shoyu inari free. Took pics of what I ordered for my uncle & for my other half & I. Will go back again because, they're pretty good. Arigatou for the meal & assistance in fixing someone else's error. God bless!

    8 piece inari, a mess in the box when I got home but they tasted good!!!

    Their inari - tofu skin and rice - was good! Flavorful and even though it's premade and kept cold, the rice still had good texture. I've tried their salmon and ahi poke flavors, imitation crab, Wagyu beef and aburi salmon. Out of everything I'd say Wagyu beef was the best. The poke was ok. The salmon one had a fish bone in it so be careful!!! The other flavors were just ok. Service was a bit slow. Their ordering system doesn't make sense. I spoke my order, and the staff had to look through a long list of items in the paper order sheet to check it, so that took some time even I was just ordering 2 already-made inari from the display window. Someone in front of me had a large order and I was just standing there for 10-15 mins waiting to order my 2 pieces. The handrolls in the display case were already made and I could see the nori being a little soggy already. I hope they weren't selling those. There's also a lot of rice in it with just little protein at the top. I think handrolls have to be made to order. I think I only really enjoyed the Wagyu beef inari from my entire order. It's conveniently located outside Don Quijote of kahaka with plenty of parking (at least in their adjacent secondary lot). I was hoping I would like this place just as much as another inari place in town but sadly it wasn't for me. Hope they will come up with more interesting flavors and improve on the quality.

    Spicy Ahi Poke Inari
    Melanie C.

    Frequently passing by this place every time we go to Don Quijote & always wanted to try it since I love inari. Friend told me they were having their 1st anniversary sale and each piece was $1 so decided to check it out. Went around 12pm & the line was past the Don Quijote entrance! Waited for almost 2 hours to order and then another 45mins to get our food. We ordered spicy ahi, shoyu ahi, takoyaki, unagi, and tobiko. The aburaage (tofu skin) and rice were seasoned well! They pack the inari with a good amount of filling so it took me 2-3 bites to eat it. The unagi and takoyaki were okay, just takoyaki balls and unagi with shredded egg on top. I liked the tobiko, fresh and very crunchy. The shoyu ahi was really good! Ahi was fresh and seasoned well. Our favorite was the spicy ahi. Big chunks and good flavor to them. Would definitely get the spicy ahi again. My husband went the next day to order when they opened and waited around 40mins so not as bad as the day before. They got our order wrong and gave us shoyu ahi instead of spicy ahi. Kinda disappointed but we just took the ahi & made our own spicy ahi sauce so it turned out good.

    Quality of food is 5 stars ! Excellent superb taste & freshness. But do they really open at 11 am because yesterday we were there at around 11:15 am & the man inside said they weren't open yet. Will be back definitely !

The FOOD, though, was fantastic. The wagyu was absolutely amazing. The tonkatsu was very good, and I can see why so many people describe it as tender, juicy and perfectly crispy. I'm torn on this one. The food was excellent and the wagyu was a standout, but the service made the overall experience much less enjoyable than it should have been.

Once we were seated, though, the food was absolutely worth it. We had the chicken katsu, sizzling miso, minced pork, shrimp and chicken, and a katsu sandwich to go. The chicken katsu was AMAZING and easily the best katsu we had on the island. The sizzling miso was also amazing, and the shrimp and chicken was great. The minced pork was probably our least favorite, but still decent. And the katsu sandwich we took to go was amazing as well. I also really enjoyed the sesame at the table. You grind it yourself and then mix in the sauce, so you get that fresh sesame flavor right before eating. It was a fun little part of the meal and made the whole experience feel more interactive. The only real downside was how cramped the table for two felt once all the dishes, side dishes, sauces, and everything else arrived. There is a lot going on at the table, so there isn't much room to spare. My only real complaint was actually how they handle the waiting area. The space is tiny and was absolutely packed with people waiting to be called. They told us to wait inside, but there was plenty of room outside where people could have waited instead. It would have made the tiny indoor area much less crowded and easier for everyone.

Especially, this hurt most when there was a rude lady staff passing out toppings. My family member had kindly requested for green onions a few times, and mind you again, we did not have a line when we entered in, but this lady snickered and ignored her request. I had to sternly request for green onions which eventually happened. The service should not be this way. This is an amazing restaurant, but the experience was utterly ruined from that service experience.

With a spoon, you get too much saltiness. The spice hits at the end. The tako karaage were a little too chewy for us. Beef tongue was so tender. A definite must order. I dont think it needs rice though. We also ordered the late night nikumiso but it didn't come with an egg, which the menu said it should. We tried handful more items but we'll be back to try the oxtail items, as it sounds like that's their specialties, but takes extra time to prepare.

    Came here for Sunday breakfast with the kiddies, and we arrived a little after 8:00 a.m. There was…read moreplenty of parking and seating available, and we were greeted and seated right away. We were promptly served water and hot tea while we looked over the menu. My boys love salmon, so they chose the Grilled Salted Salmon Set. Knowing they probably wouldn't finish their meals, I ordered the TKG Set and added natto and mentaiko on the side. Each set comes with miso soup, rice, and an assortment of delicious sides. Everything was so good! One of my favorite touches was at the end of the meal when our waitress brought out dashi with seaweed, wasabi, and green onions (comes with the Salmon Sets) for us to pour over the remaining rice. It was the perfect way to finish the meal. We cleaned our plates and enjoyed every bite. I'm definitely looking forward to coming back to try more of their breakfast dishes and to experience their lunch and dinner offerings as well.

    My favorite soba restaurant. I love that they offer so many different preparations/toppings/sides;…read morethey can always satisfy whatever I'm in the mood for (hot or cold). They also have excellent tempura and sashimi. My favorite is the 'Hana' (cold soba w/tororo-unu-ikura-wakkame-nori-negi) but add ume & natto, and a side order vegetable tempura. (They also have incredible unagi tempura and a kakiage over hot soba) - plus they have yuzu ginger sorbet!! Service is always polite and friendly which makes it easy to become a regular here. Prices are well worth it for the quality.

    Little Plum is always an enjoyable experience. First of all, the restaurant is quaint and…read morecomfortable. The dining area is one open area, the table setting is cozy with its crochet coaster and wooden chopsticks rest. There's an open kitchen so you can watch the chefs put love into each dish. My server even pointed out who will be making my crispy pork belly. The wait staff is so helpful and welcoming. They made sure our vegan friend was well-taken care of. She suggested the mushroom jook where they would put the chicken on the side. They even added more mushroom to elevate his dining experience! Today we ordered family style, which they happily accommodated for us. They served the rice on the side. Our menu included short rib bao and shiitake bao (vegan), ume tomato, namul, spicy miso eggplant, crispy pork belly, menchi katsu, and mushroom jook. The standouts were the crispy pork belly with its watercress tomato onion salad, the ume tomato on whipped tofu, and spicy miso eggplant. The mushroom jook is so comforting, hearty and full of flavor served with chicken confit and a soy egg. The two desserts offered are both winners. The mochi churro with kinako and anglaise is crispy, light and creamy. The pineapple orange pudding is so cool and refreshing. And, 100% of dessert sales go to the culinary team! What?! Love this place. Plus, with you check are some fun asian candies -white rabbit and haw flakes! I haven't been there for dinner yet. That'll be next.
