| - Came here about 4pm on a week night, was not too busy since it was before the dinner rush, and as I was there till about 5:30 the dinner rush does pick up a lot.
I love sushi and have tried it from many different places in Hawaii where I know the fish is fresh and Japanese culinary skill always on point. Trying this place, we were cautiously hopeful...its delicious!
My boyfriend and I got the All You Can Eat dinner special for $26 (which is a steal! because sushi can be sooo expensive in any place), with that you are able to choose anything from a four page menu of different appetizers, rolls, nigiri and dessert BUT you are limited to only 90 minutes for your meal, which I will explain later can put a damper on the meal.
There are some restrictions of course, for some of the premium items you are only allowed to order it once per AYCE paying person, I think the only one we got was the Spicy Tuna Salad, which was great, fresh greens with sashimi in a spicy sauce, yum! (Really loved that sauce).
Somer other dishes that we got and that I would recommend, are the Sunset roll, baked mussels 2pc (of which we got multiple orders of:), Spicy Tuna Hand Roll, and any of the Tempura Ice Cream desserts. This place has one of the better tasting ice cream tempuras I've had the pleasure of tasting :))
**Ive reviewed this as 4 star and not 5 star based on the time it takes to place the order, there seemed to be 2 waitresses at the time we went (4pm) with a third coming as we left (5:30). Our water needed refilling and we wanted to put in some orders but took a while.
**For the AYCE you have 90 minutes approximately and they recommend you order only what you know you can eat so as not to waste :) This meant we ordered a few dishes at a time, and once finished put in another order. The only thing that bugged us is that since we could not get a waitress as regularly as we would've liked we were waiting to put in our order and then waiting for our dishes to come out long after we finished our previous order of dishes.
We still really enjoyed our meal and would come back, and our experience would only be better knowing which dishes we'd like to get on the first order :))
