Absolutely loved the chicken katsu omakase at J Shop. The whole experience felt thoughtful, elevated, and still comforting in that way only really great Japanese-inspired food can be. The chicken katsu was the star -- perfectly crispy on the outside, juicy and tender on the inside, and seasoned just right. What made it even better was the omakase presentation, where each course felt intentional and paced well, making the meal feel special from start to finish. Everything came together beautifully with great flavor, texture, and attention to detail. Service was friendly and the overall vibe made it feel like a fun, memorable dining experience rather than just another meal. Definitely a place I'd return to and recommend to anyone who appreciates a creative take on katsu done really well. read more

J-Shop - Grill menu - International Grocery Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Who knew? By day, J-Shop is a retail store selling imported fresh produce, meats and fish from Japan (tip- Thursdays are fresh fish delivery day) By night- an Izakaya serving great 'FRESH" food made upon order. And the price? Well, it's priced right! Seats about 12 people TOTAL. I might be shooting myself in the foot by revealing what I consider to be a great kept secret! OR. I must have been living under a rock NOT to have known about this place. (OK, I've been to the market during the day but never knew about the night time activities). I will caution the food takes time to get prepared so be on top of your order or it may get lost in the shuffle (or lost in sake) It's BYOB and like other izakaya with BYOB policy; be sure you bring some adult beverage for the chef and his workers. Sashimi Omakase? The best! read more

What a fantastic, unsuspecting Izakaya! We had been meaning to try J-Shop Izakaya for ages and finally made it, and it was definitely worth the wait read more

I have gone past this place many times when going down Young Street and have not tried their food. We decided to go and try them out for old times sake. We made the reservation on Open Table pretty easily. There is sushi bar seating and a few tables - were opted for a table since we tend to get many dishes and share. The staff was very attentive and helped explain their dishes we inquired about well. We opted for a little of everything for our first visit. California Roll: 7/10. Fresh real Crab and avocado. The dish is tiny but packs a nice punch in flavor. Assorted Tempura: 8/10. 3 Shrimp, 1 Whitefish, 1 carrot, 1 eggplant, 1 kabocha, and 1 onion. Lightly fried without a strong oily texture and not too much batter. Dashimaki Tamago: 7/10. It takes a little while for the dish to cook, so order early. The dashi-taste is very light so you get a more egg taste each bite. The pieces are very generous and you don't need too much Shoyu to pair. Misoyaki Butterfish: 9/10. While, I may have liked this particular butterfish for it's light miso flavor, many others would prefer a stronger miso taste. It is a very very light miso flavor and not too charred outside to give it a nice and juicy body. The skin is nice and crispy as well. Chutoro Sashimi: 10/10. The pieces are not skinny, the fish itself is good, and the presentation is nice and simple with the right compliments. With 6 pieces per order, this is quite good and we considered getting a 2nd order. Simmered Pumpkin: 6/10. Both myself and my guest commented that it had a very light flavor but was nicely simmered and not too tough to bite. I liked that it was served cold but my guest would have wanted it warm. Simmered Eggplant: 7/10. Not too sweet and the right amount of savory. Cooked well and very light to eat. Lotus root: 9/10. Infound this side dish to be quite good as the lotus root is cooked but still had a slight crisp to it. My guest ended up ordering 3 portions take out for home. This was a great first experience and we have a better idea of what to go for. Also, it is BYOB so bring your own favorites. read more

J shop is a tiny hole in a wall izakaya specializing in grilled seafoods and sashimi, housed inside the J-shop grocery store. Make a reservation on Open Table, dinner only, and BYOB. Our service while we were there was a little hectic/slow. There is only one waitress and 2 chefs. It took us quite a while to get our orders and there was a significant wait between dishes and to get our check. A 1 hour meal took closer to 2 hours after all the waiting. Our favorite dishes were the fried oysters, the grilled stingray, and the grilled sardine sheets. They were all super umami and fresh. One downside of the small space was the ventilation was poor and there was significant smoke inhalation which made our meal less than pleasant. Overall I'm not sure I would return, but I think if you've never tried it you should give it a try! read more

Up to today, I never knew this place existed. I just happened to stumble upon J-Shop during my lunch break where I needed to do a quick work errand across the street at the One Kalakaua Senior Living. The parking at One Kalakaua was full, but I wasn't able park due to no parking space available so I literally pulled up on the parking lot across the street, which happens to be J-Shop's parking lot. I didn't want to just park and walk across the street, so I entered J-Shop to at least buy something and to my surprise, it was a small and cute Japanese mom and pop grocery store. During my quick visit, I noticed that they sold a variety of Japanese snacks and Japanese goods and a variety of premade sushi. I wish I could have roamed around longer, but I'll definitely make my way back if I ever need to do a work errand at One Kalakaua ever again. Because I was parked in their parking lot and I wanted to cross the street to One Kalakaua, I did end up buying my lunch there. I ended up getting a tekka maki and a chilled green tea. I went to pay the nice lady and I did end up asking her if it was ok for me to park my car and walk across the street real quick to do my errand. She was so nice and understanding and told me that because I was their customer, it was ok for me to park there. It was so nice of her and I'd totally understand as well if she told me no. Super grateful! Once I finished my errand, I went back in to thank the lady once again for the kind gesture. Once I got back to my car, I did end up eating the tekka sushi on my drive back to work. It was so fresh and I can tell it was made that day. When I in the store, I did notice that they had a sushi bar on one side of the building and that would make sense to why their maki was so fresh tasting. I'm sure they get their fish in fresh daily. Definitely would love to try their food one day. read more

J-Shop - Sashimi omakase for $80. - International Grocery Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

This place is more 3.5 for me. It was on the high end for cost. The fish is good 5 stars for taste but you don't get much for omakase sashimi. The Miyazaki butter fish was average to me because it was way too salty. More salt than miso flavor. The assorted tempura was 5 stars it was yummy yum yum. See my photos they have during the day chirashi bowl I think it is a good value. They had byob so most people like to save some money. I won't come back for dinner but mane for the bowls during the day. I would give it three stars as average but sashimi is goods. The butterfish was super salty, it made me think they had it marinade for a long time read more

Quaint shop located near One Kalakaua Avenue and Young Street. Free parking in its lot. Clean and organized store containing items imported from Japan and more. You can find snacks, household items, magazines, fresh made bentos and so much more here. Service is exceptional and friendly. Japanese language is generally spoken here. Great fresh sushi, sashimi, donburi style meals, and bentos made here. The oden is very natural taste. No added shoyu or sugar, so don't expect the sweet type or heavy flavors here. The oyako (chicken and egg) donburi is the same. I think it's much healthier, but my Dad wanted more "taste" and gravy. His favorite is still at Ojisan's. Ambiance: 3.5/5 stars Service: 5/5 stars Food: 3.5/5 stars. Sushi is 4/5 stars. read more

This was a charming little place a little bit off the beaten path. Although there is only one chef, the place is sized accordingly so service was reasonably fast. The two waitresses were also on top of everything from the moment that we walked in to the moment that we left. We ended up getting the sashimi for three, plus a few other items that seemed interesting to us, and everything was exceptional. There are plenty of photos of the platter so I won't elaborate too much on there except to say that the platter of uni is real! One thing that I loved was that after we were done with the mackerel and the shrimp, they offered to deep fry the bones and the shrimp heads. The frying takes a while (maybe 10 minutes), but they were a delight to eat. If you haven't tried fried fish bones before, they don't taste fishy at all. Best I can describe it as is like unusually thick chips - hot, crunchy, salty. To round out the meal, we ordered some other items a la carte. The octopus karage was great, as was the other sushi. The "white fish" roll was especially good. There is some sort of seasoning that they added to the roll that we loved, so much so that we ordered a couple more while waiting for our fish bones. To finish the meal, we ordered three pieces of tomago. Every great sushi place I've been to has their own take on tomago, and J-Shop was no exception. The tomago was sort of split along one of the seams that form when cooking, and then filled with a rice mixture. My memory was that it was more savory rather than sweet. A word on pricing, you might try to stick with anything that's labelled as a special, or that comes in one of their sets or combos. Ordering the nigiri a la carte was a bit more expensive than I was expecting relative to the sashimi platter that we ordered. One of the other tables that seemed to have some regulars brought the chef a nice bottle of alcohol as a gift. I'm sure it's not expected, but just thought I'd mention it. For many people, this is not just another sushi place, but a part of a local community. All in all, this is a place that I will make sure to visit again the next time I'm on Oahu. read more

Update on J-Shop I haven't been here for awhile so I decided to stop by for lunch . I was craving for Donburi so I ordered their pork katsu Donburi and also their Salmon Donburi. The Salmon Donburi is very fresh over sushi rice and the price is very good @ $14.95. Also the Katsu Donburi is made to order so it's nice and hot . They do sell pre-made bento as along with a special of the day . Today special on Saturday was tempura bento and Mabo egg plant . This small Japanese grocery store sell lots of things straight from Japan . Especially A5 Wagyu beef look at my pic maybe one day I'll buy a slab like that and just enjoy lol!!

Fresh fish! Flown in from Japan daily. With the omakase, though, it was a lot of stuff that we would not normally eat, so we would probably just order ala carte next time.

This is an easy 5-star review because J-Shop offers high-quality, fresh, and authentic sushi at an affordable price. They have a joint grocery store selling seasonal fish and a restaurant (by reservation only). Food - Fresh fish that melts in your mouth - Generous fish-to-rice ratio - The sushi nigiri and sashimi omakase are our personal favorites, and they always include the best cuts of tuna, salmon, yellowtail, scallop, and uni. They are consistently really good, and every time, the fish is delicious, and the rice is cooked to perfection (no one wants mushy cold rice... you want that fluffy, sticky texture with sweet yet tangy flavor). Drinks - BYOB, and they offer cups for your sake, wine, and ice buckets to chill the wine. At no extra cost. Plus, the waitresses and chef are so nice and welcoming. Always checking on us and pouring us complimentary hot tea. read more

Mom's happy place... We are blessed to have many places to find our unique cultural favorites and J-Shop is no different finding it's own niche to make it special in it's own way. Located slightly hidden on Young Street right across the One Kalakaua it's easily missed if you're heading in the Ewa direction as once you cross Kalakaua Avenue it will be on your immediate left and it has a lot of parking to make your shopping experience easy. Yes they have a lot of high end items not found in many places are are probably understood and appreciated by a small group of folks...I am certainly not one of them, not because it's expensive but I don't have that level of taste buds to know the difference. They do have a great selection of fresh and frozen items as well and mom are mostly forzen seafood and a specific pickled veggies she loved and on this visit I literally almost grabbed them all as the last time I got several and she kept complaining she's out and needed more lol!! Small yet specific amount of snacks, sauces and even bentos if you go just before closing the prices do drop and yes the selection are slim picking but a great price for dinner regardless is a great option though on this visit they seem to have closed off the dining area for a private function so I didn't get a chance to see much of it and kept it simple with mom's goods. Thank you! read more

Such a cute little place. We came for the omakase, and weren't disappointed. Location: unassuming Japanese market. Ample parking. Service: We were the only patrons there and were well taken care of. Service was friendly, attentive, and we felt the chefs hospitality despite the language barrier. He even put on a little music video for us to enjoy! Food: Fresh, simple, and delicious. The omakase was great for the price (in comparison to the mainland). The negitoro was also delicious and had its signature umami rich taste. You'd never guess that there was a sushi spot this good inside a supermarket. Definitely a hidden gem. read more

A Japanese grocery store during the day, izakaya at night. What a great way to utilize the space. Half of the store is used as a small restaurant, so I do recommend making reservations to make sure you have a spot. We had a reservation at 7:30 pm and the restaurant was filled. By the way, it is BYOB! There are many different choices and we all had a hard time deciding what to get. Luckily there were 5 of us so we got to try a little of everything. I do recommend getting the sashimi plate. We were all so amazed at how many pieces there were and some were even hiding! Another dish we enjoyed and ordered twice was the butter scallop. It was the butter that made the scallops so flavorful and soft! The night we went, it was the chef's birthday so of course we shared our sake with him. Also one of the servers drinks, can't leave them out as well :) They have a parking lot so no worries about finding parking. They have a decent amount of space. I do suggest going to the bathroom with a buddy since it is outside and have to go up the stairs. read more

We had just eaten but we plan to come back and try the bento there read more

Had a wonderful dinner sharing a $80 sashimi order for two! Great service, although the ambiance is somewhat lacking.

A treasure hidden in plain sight. Note: This is a review of the J-Shop izakaya. My previous review and rating is still relevant for the retail shop. It stands to reason that the high end Japanese specialty shop that brings us dessert tomatoes, white strawberries, ultra sweet musk melons, A5 Wagyu, and an array of incredible fish direct from Japan could use those ingredients to create a great izakaya experience. Now they do. Tip: order in waves. 1. Order the omakase sashimi plate. Chef's choice. Market price. All fish imported from Japan. On this visit the plate included tai, Hokkaido scallops, hamachi, ama ebi, and a literal pile of Hokkaido uni. All sublime. Outstanding freshness. Exactly what you'd expect the flavor to be. Also, say yes when they ask if you want the fish bones to be deep fried and served. There's nothing like warm, crispy fried fish head, tail, fins and bones. 2. Order any sashimi not already on the omakase sashimi plate to give yourself the widest tasting of the Japanese seafood. Added the chutoro which surpasses the self graded otoro at most lesser sushi eateries. 3. Order the tako karaage. Take a perfectly cooked uber tender tako, coat it in a seasoned rice flour batter and flash fry it. Squeeze a few drops of lemon on it and it's the perfect partner to some sake or shochu. 4. If you must get sushi the negitoro is outstanding. Who doesn't love chopped up fatty tuna and green onion? Uni lovers get the uni nigiri. It comes overflowing with Hokkaido uni. Standard izakaya items including misoyaki butterfish, tempura, chirashi bowls all available but try to keep your focus on the quality seafood. Outstanding Japanese service. Inexpensive. This visit for two inclusive, sub $200. BYOB. Neither the shop or the izakaya sell alcohol. Reservations required. One of the best ways to experience the spoils from Japan without breaking the bank. read more

Decided to grab lunch here one day since I was in the area. Thought I was going to get one of their bentos but after looking at the selection I got a bara chirashi instead. I didn't know but there was a sign that said most of their bentos are made with 95% things from japan. The fish tasted pretty fresh and was reasonably priced. I always like getting fish from here. There's also a little store that you can get Japanese products. Most of it is pretty pricey though. We've bought wagyu from here before but we still haven't tried their expensive fruit. There were melons we saw today that were $115 and strawberries for $40. We've been there at night too for dinner. Definitely would recommend doing that. I still need to write a review for that experience. read more

J-Shop - Bara chirashi - International Grocery Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Japanese groceries and restaurant in Honolulu, Hawaii... Donna O.'s review reminded me about J-Shop where Rod U. received another ROTD (Review Of The Day). I should have known that this was a cool place because Emi H., Ric C., Jace T., and Lyla D. had been here, too. Located on Young Street, this unique business doesn't look like much from the outside, but inside, you'll be transported to Japan! There are aisles of Japanese ingredients, goods, and everything in-between! I looked at the pens... and cute erasers - especially the panda, daruma, kangaroo, and seal ones. The Japanese potato salad, takuan, and unagi (eel) were very tempting. I chose a poke don to take home for dinner. Yum! It had chunks of salmon, ahi, and Hamachi with cubes of avocado and cucumber on a bed of sushi rice and shredded daikon garnish! I want to return someday for the dining-in at the counter option. The uni looks good! read more

On a walk home a few days ago, I went down Young Street and noticed J-Shop for the first time. Tucked in near Kalakaua, they have a dedicated parking lot and welcoming signs. Heading inside, it's combination grocery store, stationary shop, sushi counter, and noodle bar all in one. It was filled with people speaking Japanese and shopping, friendly conversations all around led to a positive atmosphere. They have produce, fish, meat, and packaged goods. This uniquely showcases the food from Hokkaido, the art work and travel posters point to Japan's northern island. The staff here was welcoming and busy restocking shelves. The sushi counter was closed, but looked like a fun place to come - only open evenings a few nights a week. The noodle bar is in the next room, another place I'd enjoy trying. I only bought a variety of Ito-en tea I never saw before - cold brew green. Prices are on par for everything as other larger Japanese grocery stores around. Also, $40 strawberries were fun to see! I look forward to stopping in again soon, hopefully for a meal. read more

I come here once in awhile to see what they have. They have some air flown products from Japan. It's not cheap but if you want it, you would buy it. J-Shop have some pen, refills, and stationery items and other food products from Japan. You will find refrigerated and frozen items like my favorite frozen mandarin orange from Japan. That's how i got the idea to freeze my own peeled cuties for a nice icy treat. During lunch, they have some specials and bentos you can purchase. If I remembered correctly the items are from Japan in the bento. No wonder it's at that price and you can taste the difference in the rice too. It's a nice treat to have quality Japanese bento! Now they offer omakase after hours when the store closes which is cool. I'm not into raw and seafood, but I saw that they have ahi belly with tofu & mushrooms marinated in a delicious shoyu base sauce?! It was the best thing! I was fortunate to purchase some when they had some out during the lunch hour. It was so delicious with the tofu and mushrooms! I wish they will have it again. Sometimes when I'm craving for Japanese food, I would come here. Don't come too late like I always do, when there were only one or two bentos left. Come early for best selection! Thanks for reading my review! =) read more

Interesting spot. It's a Japanese grocery store/ sushi bar/ grab-n-go. We headed to the grab-n-go section towards the far right once you walk in, right past the sushi bar. It was only 12:40 and all they had left was a saba bento, chicken katsu bento, and a pork katsu bento. We asked if they could make one more pork and they seemed hesitant and said it would take about 15 minutes. Didn't seem like they wanted to work anymore. One of us just ended up ordering the sushi and we got the last chicken and pork bento. Four stars because that was the best gobo I ever had! Also the lady in the front was nice and provided us with cups of water when we sat down to eat. Its a good place to come if you come early. I'm sure they had a better selection from the grab-n-go when they opened. There's a few tables to sit and eat if you like to stay there. They also have pau hana at the sushi bar. Also, there's lots a parking which is a plus! read more

They are so nice there...and they have high quality meats and fish. Went to get a gift card for a birthday present...and ended up also with a reservation to the izakaya that opens about 5-ish. BYOB, and they will bring you bucket ice if needed. Ordered a sashimi omakase for 2, sushi omakase (pleasantly surprised they cut the pieces in half so me and the hubs could each have a taste). I thought the ikura was little too salty and the "eye" didn't move the way it does when it's fresh. But still grinds. Uni melted in my mouth...mmm, nice flashbacks. Also ordered hamachi kama, tako karaage. Everything delish. Kama was cooked PERFECTLY. Tako was yummy and soft but not too soft. They fried up the fish bone after...she said that would be $7 to fry but they didn't charge us for that. Seems like a strange add-on cost. Bathroom outside and upstairs. Nobody loitering outside so felt really safe. Probably a new go to... read more

I was looking for an authentic japanese restaurant to eat at and this place sounded interesting. We got there around 6pm and only one other table occupied. The server was very friendly and sweet. Immediately gave us a free appetizer that I had no idea what it was but found out later it was monkfish liver. It was okay, had a very mild liver flavor and the texture was a bit mealy. Perhaps if I didn't know what an ugly fish monkfish is, I would have enjoyed it mire lol. Ordered some tempura, ahi sashimi, salmon collar and chicken karaage. Everything was fresh and delicious but there wasn't much edible meat on the salmon. Prices were a bit on the high side. Overall a nice meal but will continue looking for my go-to japanese restaurant in Honolulu. read more

Absolutely one of my favorite Japanese little bento shops and store. You can find a lot of everything here. The bentos are always so fresh but I suggest to always call ahead to order one. They sell our by a little after peak lunchtime but if you have your favorite, call. The sides are always tasty and the food is very good. Just like now I remember in Japan! The people are pleasant and helpful and the pricing is reasonable for the freshness and delicate way everything is delivered. Love it. read more

Amazing service, great food quality, and very authentic! More people should know about it but I'm afraid it will become another crowded spot

This was our second trip to J-Shop and an early Valentine's Day gift to the wife. I got just shy of $190 worth of Wagyu... that amazing marvel of meat. I also got two trays of hamachi sashimi and a tray of Saba nigiri that we ended up eating last night. First things first, that Saba nigiri was bonkers delicious. It was only yesterday but I've thought about it a dozen times since then and can't wait to go back and buy more. I have a feeling that it's not something that they offer all the time so I got a note to myself to call ahead to be sure. I didn't eat the hamachi sashimi since that was for the wife. Yet, I kept hearing her say "amazing" and how it was melting in her mouth. The Wagyu was phenomenal as always. There is nothing more than can be said except it tastes and feels like butter beef that just melts in your mouth. We can't afford it more than once a year but each time it's an experience we never forgot. Lastly, still can't beat the parking here or the friendly customer service. read more

Who would of thought this grocery store has a mini "secret" izakaya restaurant inside! I absolutely would have never known about it if my bestie didn't try it out herself and told me about her experience. Japanese cuisine (particularly sushi) is one of my top 3 things to eat so I was waiting for the perfect opportunity and what better opportunity than for a birthday celebration? They have a small parking lot in the front and the place is easy to find. It's also BYOB but if you're planning to purchase drinks at the grocery store to save time, note that it closes at 7 PM so that you can plan accordingly. The staff is super nice and sweet, pretty attentive as well. We loved everything we ordered but that Sashimi Platter is so worth every penny; super fresh and plentiful! I also loved their Special Orange Sherbet -- I forgot the backstory to this fruit... I think it was specially flown in from Japan? And I loved how they used the peel as a holder for the sherbet, how cute! The menu prices did intimidate us at first but the total bill wasn't as scary as we thought it would be considering we ordered everything on the left side of the menu. Would I come back again? MOST DEFINITELY :) read more

Been coming here for a while. Dont let the check in count fool you, its just that i forget to check in because I'm usually in a rush to get back to my car to start eating already. That being said there so many good things to eat: * UNI, this week I splurged and picked up a tray of uni. When I brought the tray up the counter they swapped it out for a better looking tray. It was so fresh, it felt like it melted in my mouth! Plus there was so much that I had leftover for dinner. You can find this plus sushi, chirashi bowls, and other seafood in the refrigerated section. * WAGYU PLATE, the meat is very tender, plus it's nicely marinated so it's very juicy. There is also several sides like oden, fried tofu and other tasty things making this plate well worth the price. The kitchen is to the right when you enter the store, this is where you place your order. After you place your order you can pay at the cashier (to the left as you enter the store) when the cooks bring it to the front. * SODA, this is my only gripe and it's because they don't sell soda. Have not had an problems finding parking. read more
