This little place in Aiea, across the street from Times supermarket and on same street as Aiea Post Office. Very hospitable and kind chef & staff. You're greeted with a smile and hot miso soup after being seated. Lunch opens at 11am and no waiting today, Sat 9/16. All sushi is made to order, tasting FRESH and Oishi! Prices are very reasonable for great tasting sushi. If you plan to try this place for dinner on the weekend, make reservations ahead of time. They usually have a line out the door for non-reservations. And you may BYOB for a greater experience if you please read more

Needed some quick take out on the weekend and found this spot on yelp. Worked out in our favor as the food was good for a last minute find. Picked up the Spicy salmon roll, Best friend roll, Spicy ahi nigiri, Salmon nigiri, and Kamikazi roll. Sorry forgot to take a photo of the kamikazi... For the price it was worth it to me. Thankfully we ordered in advance because the place was pretty busy Saturday night. Parking was easy, lots of spaces. read more

Since my brother mentioned to me he wanted to try this sushi place we decided to go for lunch after he finished work. The sign said opens at 11:00 but when he called to make sure on the time they're open at 10:45. So we started ordering. I ordered cold tofu, 3 pieces of ahi nigiri and 3 pieces of ikura nigiri. My brother ordered chicken donburi and tempura cream cheese, imitation crab roll. My husband had fried oysters, shrimp tempura 2 pieces in a order, scallops crab avocado cucumber roll. The server ask if we wanted miso soup we said yes and offer us green hot tea too. All in all the sushi was good small nigiri sushi rice and good piece of fish on top it. My brother donburi he was a little disappointed because he said didn't taste like Japanese style of cooking it was tasting like more Korean taste. All in all it was a place we tried and thought it was ok read more

My brother-in-law Craig T suggested this restaurant to have lunch. They were open when we arrived. Posted sign said 11am. We were there at a quarter to eleven. I especially liked the fried oysters. Crisp and flavorful. Also ordered the S M.T. roll (scallops, Imatation crab avocado, and tobiko). My only gripe with this sushi roll is that the nori was tough. Shrimp Tempura was probably bought at Costco. Service was friendly, and our food came out fast. Enjoy. read more

Sushi Spot - Philly - Japanese Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

Old Asian folk really just love my little Mister. It's like they seem to know he's a picky eater so if he's eating their food, they're doing something right It was our first time here and we have to go back because my little guy promised the Sir we would come back next time for the vanilla ice cream he didn't have room for after dinner! So many restaurant people just disregard kids but service like this goes a long way with the parents paying the tab lol We were there kind of early for dinner so we were seated quickly. It's a small shop that fills up quick - lots of people were waiting outside when we left Definitely will be back read more

The Hamachi, Sake and Hotate was very fresh, thick "Neta" and "Shari" is perfect proportion...Oishiikatta! Service was excellent, the waitress was very attentive and friendly, excellent customer service! The restaurant is very clean, set up for efficiency and I have witnessed the staff "Turn the tables over" quickly for the next customer. It was my first time there and I've noticed that there was returning customers because I heard them say "Good to see you again" and "What will you have today". This tells a lot of this restaurant. After years of my kids said to try this place, I'm happy that I did! I travel to Japan and Korea multiple times a year for the past 20yrs for business and leisure, I'll definitely be back! read more

Everything was just okay. The lady was friendly but only checked on us once throughout our meal, while the guy never came by once even though we could see and hear him going to the other tables. The food was okay, it wasn't bad but at the same time not awesome, right in the middle. Originally I got the sushi combo deluxe and was going to order the amaebi and rolls after I finished the combo but decided not to after seeing the service and food quality. We both agreed that we could tell the difference between service and quality compared to when it was the previous owners. read more

This place is absolutely amazing!!! High quality sushi, so many options, and super kind staff. The fish was so fresh, the stuffed mushroom was perfectly crispy, and the rolls were really creative. Also free miso soup and all the sushi toppings like wasabi and ginger! We came on a random Tuesday (they close Monday's) and luckily there was no wait. The food came out super quickly too! This place does get packed and many people opt for take out too. Plenty of parking in the lot. Would highly recommend to all family and friends and even visitors to the island! read more

Met the husband here for lunch. Was a little sus because of the location... has no idea if there would be good sushi in this concrete jungle.... But quickly I was shown this place is leeeegit. The service was quick, polite, attentive. The ambiance gives a bit of a small hole in the wall vibe.. nothing too spectacular but it's clean. And of course.. the most important part.. the fish was super fresh. I was really craving salmon today and that salmon on salmon roll is unreal. Highly recommend if you're craving a fresher light roll. Husband got the katsu don bowl.. he ate it so quick I didn't even snap a photo first. I am stoked we stumbled upon this sweet spot on Yelp and decided to give it a chance. We will def be back when I can sneak away for lunch again. read more

This place is the Korean take on sushi. So there were generous portions and good flavors, but sometimes a bit much. The spicy ahi is super good, the lion king roll was too much salmon and the tempura flakes too much. For what you pay you will get a lot of food! The service was very nice and friendly. Good lunch spot if you're in the area. Be sure you park in their lot and not the one across the street. read more

Our favorite sushi spot was no longer taking pre-orders for take-out for Christmas (my fault for waiting till 2 days before), so we needed to find a last minute replacement. I always wanted to try Sushi Spot and I'm glad I did. We ordered a huge spread for the family of 13 rolls and an order of Ama Ebi Nigiri. The rolls (that I remember) included 2 Hamachi Machi, Ahi & Ahi, Salmon & Salmon, 007, Super California, Titanic, Philadelphia, Rainbow Roll #1, Caterpillar, and Calvin's Roll. Overall the rolls were great. As we know, rolls are different than nigiri, and have a lot more rice, and not as great cuts of fish. But I still throughly enjoyed these and loved the creativity and different tastes. In addition to the food, the staff here are top notch. Just super friendly, kind, polite, etc. I wish every restaurant had such great customer service. I will definitely go here again. read more

This place is a truly a hidden gem! My boyfriend introduced me to this spot and we've eaten here multiple times. As soon as you walk in, they are very welcoming and friendly. There was one time that we came as they were closing. She was so kind and apologized, explaining why they were closing a bit early. Then, she went back in to hand us two water bottles. How sweet is that! We were still craving their food so we came back the very next day. It's a cozy sushi restaurant that has a wide variety of menu items. Although they have a ton of great sushi rolls, I always get their chicken katsu plate. It is super crispy and flavorful. Their katsu sauce is really good as well. My boyfriend always enjoys their rolls. His favorite is the salmon salmon roll. Everything is fresh and quick. As soon as they seat you, they give you water and miso soup. Last time, we were even given hot tea. They play good music too! If you're ever in need of a great sushi spot, I think this place is for you! ;) read more

I have been coming to this spot for the last few years after just trying it on a whim. By far the best sushi rolls I have had in the island, my go to is usually the salmon and salmon, the Alaskan roll, and the Philadelphia roll. All three have salmon inside and it always tastes fresh and flavorful. The customer service is always on point as well, they really do take care of their regulars and are just as friendly to brand new customers. The whole staff always welcomes my girlfriend and I with big smiles and friendly greetings. Some days the wait to sit down might take long but it definitely is worth it, there is plenty of parking around as well so that isn't something to worry about. Highly recommend this place, from the food to the staff and the great friendly environment there is no other spot I'd rather go for my sushi fix. read more

Our favorite sushi spot! The staff is kind and the food is delicious! I usually get takeout but the restaurant has a small, intimate feel!

The food is great. We got the sushi and sashimi deluxe, as well as the diamond head maki and they did not skimp. All of the tuna on the deluxe plate was otoro, not your normal maguro, all of the pieces of fish were thick cuts and exceptionally smooth. The diamond head maki has a half pound of poke served on top of a California roll and was tasty as well. The tako was cooked nicely, so it gets a thumbs up from me since I feel like that's one thing that is easily overcooked at a lot of sushi places. Service was very friendly and very fast. The ambiance is a nice casual vibe. read more

They serve a delicious complimentary miso soup! Their miso soup is a palette cleanser! read more

The food and service were awesome and would recommend to anyone that likes eating sushi!!! Oishi!

We usually eat sushi after we land at Mitch's fish market. However, they were not open until 1130 and we landed at 10. Found this place, and glad we did! Good food, very reasonable pricing. Service was so friendly. My kids wanted more cherry tomatoes, they brought a whole bowl of it for the kids. They also kept asking if we wanted refills of the complementary miso soup. Super generous portions of complementary as well as fish. Can't wait to come back. The only downside is even though the parking lot is big, it was packed at 10:30 AM on a Friday morning. Ambience is cozy with fun Japanese type videos playing on the background. My kids were thoroughly entertained by it. read more

Fresh sashimi and nice people! Me and my wife had a day off with no kids and decided to go to Sushi Spot in Aiea. I ordered the Chirashi and my wife ordered the salmon lovers. The salmon tasted crisp and clean. Each piece of sashimi on the Chirashi set tasted fresh and delicious. The scallops were sweet and melt in your mouth. As we left, the two chefs behind the counter and the waitress waived goodbye smiling. Highly recommended and we must return. read more

Although Sushi Spot is a small restaurant don't let the lack of seats deter you. We came for lunch around 12 and nearly all seats were taken for my party of 3.

Food is ON POINT. Get the Calvin special. You won't regret it. My husband loves the salmon specials. The salmon is fresh and never smells or looks old. Brought a group of friends here and they were pleasantly surprised too. Weekdays at lunchtime there usually isn't a wait. Dinner times get busy. Anytime in the weekend will likely be busy as well. Staff are so nice. Every time we've gone, they're so patient, sweet, and accommodating. They work hard and check in with customers. I think it may be family run. The one waitress we usually have is awesome, she's sweet and very attentive. Every time customers leave the chefs in the back say 'thank you!' Ambiance is simple and low key. Kind of a hole in the wall. Totally worth it in my opinion! read more

Late review. We ordered this on New Year's Eve, Dec. 31, 2020 because it was really good in the past NYE 2019. I made a phone order of 2 Titanic Rolls, 2 Red Dragon Rolls, 3 orders of Salmon Nigiri (9 pieces), 3 orders of Hamachi Nigiri (9 pieces), and 1 Unagi Donburi. All of the sushi was fresh and delicious! Presentation was also really great! We love to order take out on special occasions. The owner and staff are very nice too. Mahalo! read more

A nice little sushi place that has enough seating for about 8 parties. Super fresh tasting. The waitress was friendly and attentive. She brought us water to start, then miso seaweed soup, we then ordered a shrimp tempura roll, Calvin's choice roll, and a crab tempura roll. They were all great, but I might ask them to cut the cream cheese in the crab tempura roll by half. It was also way too much food for two people, so I would just get two rolls next time. We'll be back! read more
