I enjoyed eating here! I wouldn’t say it was the best sushi or the best yakiniku but it was a lot of fun being able to switch between the two. They also had soups, tempura, fried chicken, and more. The servers were very nice. It’s a buffet so they’re not constantly checking on us but they made sure to change our grill, refill our water, take away used plates… We went in at 6:30PM on a Monday and there was no wait. My only complaints were that the grill didn’t get very hot so everything cooked pretty slow and some items like the fried chicken were room temperature. Overall, not perfect but somewhere I’d go again, it’s a great hangout spot.

Laid back atmosphere. The food was awesome!!!! The wait staff were super nice and helpful. You CAN NOT go wrong eating here! Today was the first time I’ve eaten here with my wife and I think it will be our new favorite place to eat. The shrimp tempura and the sushi selection are outstanding. Good mix of prepared food and items to cook fresh on the grill. Grill is in the center of the table. We’ll worth it!!!

For some reason, my review is no longer here, so I guess I have to re-write it. First of all, if my pictures make you think that the food here is good, I’m sorry. I’m trying to give them the best chance. The reality is that the food here is below average at best. The food that should be hot or warm is cold instead, and food that should be kept cooler (like the sushi) is warm.

The salmon tasted like it had been sitting out for a while, and considering they were pretty fast with replenishing the supply at the buffet, that tells me that wherever they’re keeping it in the prep area is not suitable. Same goes for the raw meat. I normally like my beef on the rare side, but I not only had to cook everything well done, I had to purposely overcook them a little bit just to get rid of that stale meat taste.

Full disclosure, I did come here a little later in the day, but that doesn’t excuse the staleness of the food they had out in the buffet. And mind you, I was there over an hour before last call. And people were still continuing to arrive, and they were still continuing to put food out at the buffet. So the total lack of freshness in their food is absolutely inexcusable.

The scallops were good though, that’s one bright spot. However, that doesn’t redeem this place by far. If you’re in Hawaii and you feel like you really want yakiniku or kbbq style food, you’re better off going to GEN or Gyu-Kaku. These places are franchises, so while their food may not be excellent, they are at least consistently good. Do yourself and your party a favor: skip this restaurant.

Twas ok. ‍♀️

Need to stand in line a few feet apart from another patrons of course & patiently wait to be served by one of the workers.

Majority of the time, there was just one single worker, helping to serve the many, various dishes to patrons.

Felt bad that there was only one worker whom was doing their best to serve various dishes for hungry patrons to choose from.

Went there this past weekend for my birthday brunch.

My daughter & her fiancee had chosen this place to eat.
‍♀️

Plethora of various sushi, poke, side dishes & cuts of meats & sauces to choose from.

There was also soft drinks & a list of different alcohols to choose from ; which we did not indulge in, especially since their sohu was almost $10/ bottle …

There was 3 kinds of soups & also a Soft Serve Ice cream machine that had vanilla, chocolate or you can combine a mix 2 flavors in.

You put on disposable gloves, to make/serve yourself your flavor(s) of your choice into a small dessert bowl.

Their various types of meats to cook were so/so. ‍♀️ ‍♀️ .

I honestly wouldn’t go back there again to eat. Nor would I recommend others to eat there.

Sorry ,folks… ‍♀️
I’m Just being honest. ‍♀️

One of the best buffet places on the island. You can enjoy really fresh sushi and eat kbbq at the same time! I came here not expecting much and was so surprised how fresh and delicious their sashimi, poke, and sushi were. Turns out the owner owns a sushi restaurant and goes to the fish market to get the freshest fish. My tip is start with the sushi, then get the cooked salmon (its in the middle station on the far right, so delicious), then grab some meat and start cooking as you enjoy the sushi.

Amazing service and amazing food. Highly recommend it : – )

An amazing true Korean BBQ buffet experience right in Honolulu. It’s truly all you can eat. You simply go up to the buffet and grab your meat and sides and cook at your table. They also have a selection of sushi, sashimi, soups and tempura.

Be careful to only take from the buffet what you will actually eat. Leaving a lot of leftovers will incur an extra fee. The staff was very kind and attentive, however some of their English isn’t perfect, so please be patient. I would definitely suggest trying this place out!

Expensive in comparison to some of its competitors, however they do offer a small selection of sashimi, sushi, and poke. If you’re going for the sashimi, sushi, and poke, you would be able to make your money’s worth. Don’t just go for the yakiniku meats!

We were hoping for more selection when it came to the buffet with a $38 price tag.

Customer service was great with doing what they can to keep everyone as safe as possible. Staff places food onto your plate so there isn’t a lot of people handling food & utensils. They are running around behind the buffet counters to assist everyone as quickly as possible.

Note: Lunch prices are cheaper so the selection might differ. They also have other discounts available on certain days. Forgot to take note of them.

Tip: Make a reservation! It can get VERY busy. We made our reservation the morning of, and it was fine.

Lauren: One of my favorites is the crab soup! I get at least 1 bowl when I go.

DONT EAT HERE !!! All food is terrible. their service sucks always trynna touch your grill when you come in close to closing time.We ordered three fried ones, and they were all dark. The meat inside was soft and smelly, and it was obviously spoiled. When the waiter heard my shrimp girl taking pictures of shrimps, he walked over to her and asked what happened. I showed her the shrimp and she didn’t want to admit that it had gone bad. She said that was it, and she didn’t know the details. Then she took the tray away. The steak meat was fake, I have never had such low quality meat anywhere, it was dry and impossible to chew. The meat is not fresh either. Some cooked foods are very salty, possibly to mask the smell of putrefaction. The food was terrible, we only ate about half of it. The staff noticed we were upset but they still came over to ask if everything was okay. When we complained about the food, the staff just said sorry and took no action. They were still standing next to our table with their hands on our table so close to us and the food, she stayed there for a long time without moving away which offended me and our family. Not a single waiter smiled. We didn’t sit as a wonderful group at the table and even felt like we were forced to eat very quickly. When I paid, I also told the cashier that our dinner tonight was terrible. She did nothing and still asked for a 20% tip, which I didn’t tip. Three people still paid $144. My girlfriend threw up twenty minutes after we left. My brother and I didn’t feel well either. The food here is poisonous. People here are fools.

Great food and friendly staff but they watch you like a hawk to ensure you don’t waste any food, or burn anything. I ignored them but, still thought it was a little overbearing. I can’t stand when people watch me while I eat… it’s annoying!!!
The macaroni salad is delicious and the meats are marinated well. A great selection of meats, soups, and sides for everyone to choose from.
