The Churro Kouign Amann is one of my faves, but today they also had Apple pie, original and buttermochi. Always regret not getting more once we finish them all! Best macarons in my humble opinion, my daughter's fave is cookies and cream but I love the guava and mango. Shout out to the associate that assisted me today, she was so nice while I called my daughter to ask for her flavor requests. Normally I would not make anyone wait, but the stop in was unplanned, so I really appreciated her patience and kindness. Great service and yummy goodies!

Parking is super easy with the complimentary structure, and the café is located on the bottom floor alongside other vendors. One thing I immediately appreciated was how well air-conditioned the entire market is--it's nice and cool, which makes sitting and eating there really comfortable. The cashier recommended the turkey pesto croissant, but suggested swapping it onto ciabatta since it's one of her favorites--and I'm so glad I trusted her. It was phenomenal. The flavors were balanced, the bread held everything together perfectly, and it felt like a step above your typical sandwich. I also had what looked like a simple salad, but the vinaigrette and candied pistachios really elevated it and made it feel more thoughtful than expected. The staff across the board were friendly and welcoming, and there's plenty of seating--whether inside the café or out in the open market area. Honestly, the value surprised me the most. I paid under $13 for everything, which is hard to beat for the quality. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to.

The owner(s) also own Noods Ramen and Osonami bar, so I know they would have good food and appetizers. More recently with another friend, I ordered the pokecho, Japanese potato salads, pickled onions, and $5 sampler of the smoke ahi dip with crackers. So cute and perfect when you want to try several other things. Everything were good but my favorite was the smoked ahi dip with crackers. The pokecho was good but it was hard to keep the poke on the chips. I'm used to the one at Gyotaku with natto and avocado, and other ingredients which helps keep everything on the chips. The chips were good and the poke you can have it with shoyu base or spicy type. I chose shoyu. They have some grab and go musubi available too. They are located in the Liliha Food Court on North School St. Please try them out. The lady worker was really nice and helpful. I appreciate she kept my items I planned to take home on the side in the refrigerated case while I enjoy the pokecho and other items from the other vendors.

Went at off time since there were 8 of us, for birthday celebration, was a request from the…read morebirthday boy. We went Saturday at 3pm, made reservation. Not all-you-can-eat, birthday boy just wanted to eat certain dish and we had 3 seniors who couldn't eat that much. Lots of parking available, outside restaurant mostly people using laundry nearby. We were welcomed and guided to our table. We ordered happy hour appetizers and main dishes. Salmon and ahi were ok. But the hamachi was really good. Not sure if it's the season but it was better than ahi or salmon. The fish were all fresh and big sizes. Very good value. Hotate scallops from Japan were great too, sweet and tender. I didn't care for the yuzu pepper on it, it only masked the flavor so I had to remove it. I ordered the Hoe Deop Bab. It comes with rice but I didn't need it so gave to my brother. I thought it was squid but it was the scallops in the salad so I was happy. The peanut dressing was really good and it went well with the sashimi. We had good family time. We asked for more hot tea and the serving girls came and filled it up. They left a jug of water on the side so we helped ourselves to water so it was less interruption. Servers were nice and courteous. Bathroom, need key and go outside the restaurant. Good quality sashimi/sushi here.

I've heard about this spot for a while. I love sushi and especially an AYCE sushi spot so when I…read moreheard that this spot could possibly be one of the best ones on the island, I finally went to try it out. I would note that they do close at 8PM and stop seating AYCE sushi quite early (from what I've heard as early as 6:45). We went super early for that reason, specifically at 4, so there really weren't as much people doing the AYCE yet. We walked up to the counter and let the cashier know we wanted to dine in and do the AYCE. A different person then walked us to the other side where the dine in seats are. We're given the menu and an expo marker. Then they came back with the wasabi as well as taking our order (aka taking the menu) We got: - Aburi salmon !!, ahi, Hamachi !!, ebi, scallop - Shrimp tempura, vegetable tempura!!, calamari!! - Unagi nigiri !! - Green dragon roll - Fire cracker roll - Baked mussels !! Everything was good, the menu is not super expansive with much less choices than, for example, Kan Sushi. I would also note that they kind of pack each piece with rice. I'm unsure how strict they are regarding the left over rice policies, but if you'd definitely get full very quickly with their rice to fish ratio. I'd recommend the aburi items (maybe except the ebi as it felt especially small the amount of rice). I wouldn't recommend their shrimp tempura as it is definitely pre-packaged shrimp tempura refried. (I also put an "!!" next to the items I would REALLY recommend. Otherwise, I don't think I will come back. Not that it was a bad experience or anything but in my opinion there's just simply better AYCE sushi spots out there.

I'd definitely good back with them working and the food is vegan friendly and very healthy to eat. Mahalos!!

I ate here on a Sunday early morning. Rather I should say that I ordered my plate lunch and took it…read morehome. There are tables and bench style seats off to the side of the restaurant. They were all taken by what looks like an after party crowd. Maybe they just came from dancing or just drinking in a bar. They were loud and a bit intoxicated. Ok back to what you're really here for. The food. I ordered the furikake ahi. It comes with mixed greens and asparagus. There also is some "bomb sauce". It's nice and creamy with a slight hint of heat. The furikake ahi was nicely prepared. It wasn't overcooked. It was done almost perfect. I like to see some rawness in the middle but it was close. It was really good and I was quite surprised. The asparagus too was really good. It wasn't overcooked where it's mushy or undercooked where it's hard. Prepared perfectly. I'm not a veggie person but the dressing was really good. Not exactly sure what type of dressing it was but it came with it. So no Thousand Island, Ranch, French, Italian or your Oil and Vinegar. It was really good. I just wish they gave a little more. Overall it was a really good and satisfying meal. It compares well with a restaurant like Nicos. Just not the same atmosphere and you're probably going to wanna take it home to eat. Lots of parking in the very early morning as every place else is closed. They are open 24 hours. A rarity after covid came and went. So if you're looking for someplace open late night or early morning serving a good furikake ahi this is your place. Give them a try. It's worth the price at under $20. There are many other offerings to choose from and will probably try something else from here. They also do offer a mixed plate where you can have two choices off their regular menu board. Sorry I didn't take pictures of the menu. Maybe next time I'm here. The person that took my order was really nice. She was an elderly Filipina. She was very nice and pleasant especially at working this very early morning. I think her name was ate Letti or maybe auntie Letti. Very good service.

It's right on the water at Pier 38, so there's a nice harbor atmosphere and plenty of seating. There's also parking! The menu has a good variety of seafood and Hawaiian style dishes, and they also have a fish market if you want to take some of the fresh stuff home. The fish of the day options are a fun way to try something local. The restaurant has a casual, counter service kind of feel, so don't come expecting a fancy sit down experience. It's more of a grab your food and find a table situation, which I actually think works well for the location. You get quality entrees quickly! We loved the furikake crusted tuna fish, the garlic shrimp and the mochiko chicken.

You order at the front as you enter, they will give you a buzer after you finish ordering. Try to ask for the menu before hand so you can decide what to get before you get to the front. I came with my brother and his family. Parking is free. I was deciding between the fried ahi belly and crab cake burger. I asked the cashier what she would choose from between the two and she suggested the crab cake burger. It's served on a brioche bun with spicy basiley, jardiniere spread, tomato and arugula and I asked to sub the french fries for salad. It was a good size crab cake. The briouche bun was soft. I also ordered a pepperoni pizza to share with my niece. It was okay, my niece gave her a two thumbs up approval. I wish they had a menu next the register for the dessert that was availble. I was suprised to see so many choices near the pick up area. I decided with the red velvet cake. It was moist, nice amount of frosting, and I would order it again. My brother ordered fresh poke from the fish market and it was so good! Seasoned well and so fresh. Overall, a great place that we will continue to enjoy.
