I was a little sad that my favorite server was not working. Maybe I'll see her next time! I decided on Udon. The broth is really good and warms the soul! I also got my usual, inari and an eel roll. Both very good! Would've had green tea, but it was late and it would've kept me up. The young servers working were all very friendly. I do remember when they were at the other smaller location, which was when I first discovered them. Good times! Mahalo again Kenko Ya!

Kenko-Ya is probably one of my favorite restaurants on the windward side! A great Japanese…read morerestaurant with big portions. I usually order their combination meal with butterfish, mochiko chicken and shrimp & vegetable tempura. Their butterfish is moist and has great flavor. The mochiko chicken here is one of my favorites and they give you a lot! I have enough for leftovers the next day. The shrimp & vegetable tempura has a nice light and crispy batter and they give quite a lot of veggies with two big pieces of shrimp! At our recent visit with got spicy ahi which was quite spicy but still tasty! The service is really good, with the servers being very attentive. I definitely recommend this spot if you're craving Japanese food!

Mushrooms and asparagus were roasted with deep flavors. Vegetable spring rolls had too much ginger and overpowered the vegetables within...even with sweet chili dip. Garlic edamame was the best with lots of garlic butter. 2 orders of garlic noodle was generous amount. We almost ate it all, but one serving would have been enough...creamy and rich...yummy. Minor thing...the green tea was not hot. I think I got the bottom of the pot and heard they had to make more. For Dessert, we had green tea ice cream...smooth and good! I would come back.... I have to check if they use lots of MSG because I became itchy....Ciao!!!

parking - gyukaku is located in windward mall closest to the entrance with the parking lot…read moreconnected to buffalo wild wings, kickin kajun, and planet fitness. plenty of public parking available. very quick walk from any other mall parking stalls if there's no close parking me and my boyfriend went on a wednesday at around 6:00 and arrived to a 20 minute wait. the restaurant wasn't super packed but being a weekday i assume they were understaffed for a dinner rush. no problem! we just had a little walk around the mall and they gave us a call when a table was ready for us staff - very kind and attentive! we've been once before, but didn't quite remember our experience/how to order. our waiter explained the menu to us and gave some recommendations based on restaurant favorites. all staff were very friendly and had no irritable attitudes when asked for assistance or any changes order - there were all you can eat options, as well as ala cart! we chose ala cart, just because we didn't feel like we would be able to eat our moneys worth. we got: 2 orders of shabu meat, one in each type of sauce (miso or soy), scallops, garlic shrimp, kalbi, takoyaki, mushroom medley cheese fondue, and garlic butter! all those meats added up were enough to fill me and my boyfriend + leave us space to share a red bean taiyaki & ice cream afterwards! the foods i personally enjoyed most were as follows: scallops kalbi = shabu meat. cost - our total bill after tipping came out to about $100 for the two of us. we kind of went a little over board for what we would normally like to pay for a meal, but we were celebrating valentines a little early. if you wanted to visit more frequently you'd probably have to order less from the menu or come with a larger party to keep the price reasonable! or simply have the money to spend lol 4/5 stars just because the cost doesn't feel justified for the quality of the meat. staff were wonderful and this score has nothing to do with them. i just don't like to give 5 stars if i was not fully satisfied with the experience! it's also a restaurant chain so i'm even less inclined to judge lightly if it's not a small business.

Kind of noisy with the chop-chop, slash/slash, clankity-clank of the hibachi situation on the other side of the restaurant but not so loud we couldn't hear one another.

Wait time was minimal because our family planned to get there a half hour before the party was scheduled to arrived. The group enjoyed the appetizers, particularly the ceviche tacos and assorted sushi rolls (river rock roll & crunchy roll). Decent choices for the kids: my boys ordered the chicken karaage and katsu Kitchen Bento boxes. The husband went with Kizuna Bento Box D (miso butterfish, beef teriyaki, and shrimp/veg tempura), I had Kizuna bento box C (tonkatsu and shrimp/veg tempura). The bento boxes were good, but nothing to write home about. The strength is in their appetizers and sushi rolls. Those were definitely the crowd faves. Splurge on the decorative sushi platters to share with large groups and everyone will leave with happy tummies!
