    Utage and Sugoi were closed for lunch yesterday, Sunday. Let's try here. Hubs said you're going to eat sushi? I'm sure there are cooked items, so we stepped in. If you dine in they automatically tack on 15%. You can counter that in the month of July 2025 if you have an ASB credit and debit card. A very soft spoken employee took our order. I enjoyed my beef udon a lot. Hubs said his spicy ahi bowl was okay. The bowls looked small but were just right for lunch. My matcha red bean drink was a bit sweet so when I reached home I kept adding a can of Chi Sparkling Water grape and it was just right. We bought 3 bags of their tea cookies. I could taste a faint shortbread flavor. Honestly I prefer WU Betty's cookies more. One bag was to try and two are going to Kauai. Very small, unassuming eatery. There was a little wait for the food to arrive. I saw the other table, two guys had ordered a sushi meal and it looked well plated.

    Pretty good fish for a reasonable price. Anything salmon is your best bet for fresh tasting fish. The spicy Ahi was cubed and a little bit chewy. The bento was $13 with previously frozen fish. I don't agree with the 15% service charge for dine-in customers. At the register, I could not see the 15% service charge on my bill so I almost gave tip which would have been a double tip. No one is walking around and refilling water. There is a trash can for you to throw away your own rubbish so what service am I paying for? I would scrap the 15% service charge and tip 10% on my own if I could.

    Love love love this place! Fair priced quality sushi. Nothing elaborate nothing fancy just straight forward sushi. The only thing I didn't care for is that they have a 15% gratuity already included with your bill if you dine in. I double tipped which kind of pissed me off.

    What a sleeper foodie find - sushi, boba tea, and creative pastries all in one place. I stumbled across this place by accident, starving and looking for a quick lunch. I meant to get just a bento, but after looking at their display case I had to sample their desserts. The dining area was laid out well, and could accommodate a small Yelp gathering. The folks who help me were very nice, and I really enjoyed the experience. Highly recommend if you're in the shopping center.

    The fresh salmon slices have clear textures and shine with an orange-red luster under the light, just like a petal in the sunset. When the sushi is placed on the table, it looks like a delicate piece of art, quietly lying in the plate, waiting to be tasted.

    I'm surprised I haven't left a review on this place yet! As far as "fast and inexpensive" sushi places go, this spot is a convenient favorite! You can dine in if you want, there's plenty of clean tables to relax and enjoy sushi as soon as it's ready. Or they are fast if you want it to go (and it's made fresh to order). I love how they include a generous portion of fresh wasabi, not the inferior wasabi packages that other spots tend to offer. And they give a portion of ginger that's really tasty and fresh tasting (for pickled ginger that is). Most other fast sushi places do not go to this length. The ingredients in the sushi have good rice proportions, and the fish tastes fresh and delicious every time. I especially love their seared garlic salmon! Their specialty rolls are quite large too. I've ordered sushi platters before and it doesn't break the bank which I appreciate. If you want dessert, they've got that too! They have baked goodies like cakes (whole if you need one for a special occasion or by the slice), macarons, cake pops etc. They also offer a wide selection of homemade cookies with unique Hawai'i flavors in packages that make great take home additions or gifts. They don't serve alcohol, but they have a selection of inexpensive drinks and even boba teas. Service is always fast and friendly. There's plenty of parking, you can pick up other things in the same shopping center like fresh fruits/ veggies and other things if you're buying food for a large family and someone wants something other than sushi.

    This quaint little spot is convenient, affordable and yummy. Staff is very friendly and attentive to customers that are dining in while tending to the customers coming in for takeout orders. We were pleasantly surprised at the variety of bentos and the delicious drink options. They also have alot of packaged snacks for sale like cookies and chicharron - which we regret not picking up. We will definitely be coming back to try other items on their menu.

    Lots of parking available in this shopping center that shares many other ono places to grind. Upon entry, very clean place. a lady behind the counter asked how many and sat us. Took our drink orders. next we placed our food orders. we ordered 4 sets. my faves out of all of this was the salmon and the spicy ahi Inari. salmon was buttery and ono. the Inari was sweet, balance with the spicy ahi mayo. the price is cheap, quality is good.

    I love that we can get sushi close to home now. It's located on dillingham right next to thangs smoothies, they are right on the corner so it's easy to spot. They have sooo much varieties of sushi to choose from and it ranges from $11-$30. I must say though that the rice is a little on the hard side. I would rather have it like sushi rice but it doesn't taste like it is. My favorite sushi to get is their ahi/ garlic salmon. So so good. The service is really good. They are super nice once you enter and are very patient with you. You may do dine in. They have a lot of seats for you to choose to stay and eat. They also have ac so that's a plus! Haha free parking right outside so don't need to worry.

    2nd time here. At first this place looks good but its execution is a dud. It has potential to be way better. Ordered their best combo sushi set #33: Spicy Tuna Bomb, Unagi, Ikura, Salmon, Ahi, Ika, Ebi & Hamachi. The Ikura (Salmon eggs) were old and all shriveled up. The saddest Ikura I've seen in my lifetime and not fit to be served to customers. The nori on the Ikura sushi was rubbery and hard to bite through. The other sushi were ok but none of them notable. Their service sucks big time. On both occasions, had to wait a long time for someone to come out to the front counter to take my order. I could clearly hear 3 or 4 of them chatting in the back. Once one of them came out, they weren't very helpful in making suggestions from their huge menu of sushi and a variety of non-sushi goods like bakery goods like cake & cookies. The counter person just pointed at the menu, mumbled a few things and walked away for a long time before returning to take my order. The saving grace was the interior vibe looks inviting and there was ample seating. However, the ambiance was ruined when I saw a large cockroach crawl across the floor while I was waiting for my takeout order. If they stop using old food, did some pest management & stepped up their customer service, the potential for substantial improvement could be realized. I wanted to like this place but it's a no go for me.

    this experience was disappointing. We were never informed that a 15% gratuity would be automatically added to our bill. Only when it was time to pay did someone point to a small sign on the side , If an automatic service charge is required, they should put a large, visible notice at the front entrance and make sure customers are informed upfront . This is kinda weird.. no wonder why no customer inside but us food ok but ... never come back.

    I'll start by saying that I absolutely love the food here. Five stars for that. I mean, have you tried their grilled garlic salmon? It's so good it could probably convince a lifelong vegetarian to reconsider their life choices. Seriously, it's delicious! Their rolls are good too. However, what I'm not as enthusiastic about is the time it takes to get your food. We waited a good half an hour today for our meal, and it was a to-go order with nobody else in the place. Déjà vu hit me hard because the same thing happened when I was here in April. Honestly, I have more success ordering from them through Uber Eats, which seems ironic, doesn't it? That being said, if you have the time to spare, it's definitely worth the visit. The customer service has always been friendly, which makes the wait a bit more bearable. On a sweeter note, they also have some amazing desserts. My new favorite? The Ube brownie. If you haven't tried it, you're missing out--it's a purple slice of heaven!

    Boba Milk Tea
    Debbie K.

    Stumbled across this cute little cafe when we were looking for Boba Milk Tea. After a delicious lunch with my friends and we wanted something sweet, dessert. Located in the Kapalama Shopping Center, parking right out front. The place is clean and it was empty when we went there around 3 pm. We all ordered Boba Milk Tea and they had a bakery case with all these pretty desserts in it. We each ordered a different dessert so we could try each one. We ordered the Red Velvet Cake, Mango Mousse Cake and the Japanese Cheesecake. All are Japanese style desserts, which I enjoy as they are light and not real sweet. All were delicious!

    Pretty good boba spot! This shop is located along N King St in a small plaza with a shaved ice spot…read morenext door. You can generally find parking in the lot or nearby on the street (metered). The inside of the shop is relatively spacious with seating throughout; it can get a bit busy in the afternoons after school finishes. I ordered the mochi taro milk with boba and no sugar. The staff member helping me was polite, and my order came out quickly. I really liked my drink! The mochi layer had a soft, pleasing mouthfeel, and the boba was nice and chewy. The taro drink was creamy and not too sweet either, pairing really well with the mochi. Would definitely be interested in coming back to get the other drinks on their menu!

    I'm not sure when this place changed owners, but I've been to this little shopping plaza before and…read moregot boba one time, but I think it's a different owner now. The parking lot was pretty empty on a weekday afternoon and there was only one person working. I really appreciated that they offered some snacks as well as their pretty extensive drink menu. There are so many boba places I would frequent more often if they also offered snacks. Uni offers cup noodle, freshly make bubble waffles, takoyaki and curry with rice! They even have combos that will save you a couple dollars if you get a milk tea with the food. Genius. I got the takoyaki and mixed fruit tea combo for $13. It doesn't sound like a deal, but I end up paying way more and wasting time going to two different stores when I want food and tea. The takoyaki was piping hot, piled with toppings and served in a little box that was really convenient for take out. The fruit tea was one of the better fruit teas I've had. I like that it had chunks of oranges and watermelon. The service was a little slow because there was only one worker, but she was really nice and trying her best. I think I'll be back if I'm in the area. They have cute looking desserts too! And plenty of places to sit with free wifi!

What makes these yuMmmy drinks even sweeter aside from hanging out with my bestie, is that I had enough stamps n' got them both for free!" SERVICE: friendly INTERIOR: limited seating, gets hot inside EXTERIOR: on the corner, near Safeway WAIT TIME: normally fast (5 mins) but I think since there was only 1 person working n' I came right at opening, it took maybe 15 mins (I only paid for 15 mins of parking so I cut it close!) PARKING: metered street right in front n' to the side or free lot around the corner OVERALL COMMENTS: prices are great in my opinion in this day n' age. My usual go-to is their brown sugar milk tea with brown sugar boba or either their mango or strawberry sago with grapefruit. Since it was national mango day, I went with their mango drinks. The mango sago with grapefruit is always refreshing, tasty, n' has great textures. The mini sago is made perfectly. My daughter really enjoyed their cloudy mango. Don't forget to scratch off the scratcher on the drink cups, it could contain a discount for your next visit. I earned enough stamps to fill two stamp cards from previous visits, so you can say I'm a frequent customer!

    What a comforTEAing cup…read more.. Work flow had been exhausting this past holiday season as it really hit me hard where it's not just physical but mentally as well which can wipe out your energy level. When this happens I do crave tea not the bougie bubble tea with milk and cheese foam...just some lemon or a fruit tea as I think the fresh fruit gives me that much needed boost. Finally making it to my personal time (which is what I call my day off) it needs to be just as productive I needed some tea and remembered this location near Costco and with lots of free parking made it a convenient stop. Looking under "Fruit Tea" section I asked what Like Lemon is and it's basically black tea with lemon and that's exactly what I need. I'm usually not a fan of S7 as they do have great tea though they give it these fun names but zero description leaving you asking what's in each drink and I've gotten drinks before that I had something I didn't want in it which leaves me at a convenience of going back. This location the staff was nice and polite explained and got me the drink that I wanted as made it as I browsed around the huge inventory of various items which was fast and was surprise to see the new cup it now comes in that very reuseable with a screw top cap is quite nice and yes I really enjoyed the drink as it gave me the much needed energy boost. Thank you!
