Hot Pot! My friends took me here for the first time and really enjoyed it.
The service was excellent and the food was delicious.
Lots of broth options for you to choose from for your hot pot. I really enjoyed the garlic spicy broth.
Find parking on the main road (Waialae Ave)
Or on a side street

Hands down the best hot pot place that I’ve tried. Service was also impeccable. Every worker constantly checked on us with ultimate positive vibes. Our waitress was friendly and super helpful. Truly the epitome of good service here! I had the kalbi and ribeye combo with tan tan broth and musubi. Delicious! To be honest, other hot pot places I’ve tried were all disappointing. If this place didn’t work out, I probably would have given up on hot pot lol. Thank you so much Asuka for a wonderful experience!

Not the best photos because I had been immersed in the hot pot. I really liked the namesake Asuka broth. The sets are very complete and filling. Good quality ingredients. They were really low on staff but doing their best. On a Sunday evening, I saw people turned away, so it’s better to make a reservation. No alcohol served.

1st hot pot experience and it was amazing, Kobe, kalbi, and lamb we’re all incredible, Paitan broth is a winner. Great prices as well, BYOB as well

First dinner at Honolulu! The service and food are very very good! Tips: if a set is not enough for you then order another set instead of individual item, the set’s value is the best. We ordered a lot of single items and the bill is $$$$….

We came without a reservation on Sunday night around 7:15pm and was told we probably had to wait until 8pm. The server was very nice and attentive, around 7:35pm he came to find us outside, and was able to seat us. So glad we waited! Food was worth it
We ordered 2 x Galbi + Ribeye Shabu Shabu Set. Meats were so tender, decently portioned. Would recommend this choice of meat.
For soup base we picked the
· Asuka classic: very delicious!! Creamy miso with hint of sake. The veggies tasted extra good in the broth. Comes with butter and pepper on the side. I preferred the broth without butter and pepper at first, but then adding both to the broth and eating the broth over rice was tasty
· Spicy Osaka Sukiyaki: this one was my favourite with the meats, tofu and udon! Perfectly sweet and salty with a kick of slight spicy from chili.
Overall we had a great dinner experience here. Delicious food and kind service. Would come back and recommend it to others

Was taught the art of shabu shabu here. Very nice waiter. Although I cannot compare the quality of the food here to another Japanese hot pot restaurant, the food was very good.

Great shabu shabu. BYOB. Meat quality if good. Special soup base is worthy trying. Also have the kombu soup base. Comes with rice, udon and basic vegetable. Can order more as needed.

Sometimes a shabu shabu place has great broth, sometimes they have great sauces. Asuka has both!
The taste is on spot and the quantity is just enough. You won’t leave bloated like some places. I wish they had chanko on the menu though!
