Really really good sushi rolls, the best in big island! The only and biggest downside is the wait times…. I went 1 hour before they closed and it was gonna take 45 mins for 3 rolls… also no free parking unless you score some on the street or a local (you get 2 free hours in most lots.). The portion size is really big, one roll is 8 pieces you think it’s not enough but it is! Definitely a must to go and grab some before watching the sunset.

So good, and 100% worth the wait. We ordered around 1 PM and ended up picking up at 7 PM before our flight. Was amazing, best sushi I’ve ever had. 5/5!

OH. MY. GOSH. This is the best sushi you’re ever gonna eat!!! Rolls are MASSIVE!! I’m a 33 year old 6′ 3″ 185lb athletic dude and I eat a lotttttt. That being said my wife and I (also young fit and can eat) ordered 4 rolls and didn’t come close to finishing them lol we couldn’t even finish 3!! Rolls are huge, fish and other ingredients are high quality, combos are bomb, prices are fantastic and the final product almost made me cry it was so good… lol pro tip, take your left over sushi (you will have left overs…) remove insides from rice, throw rice in the microwave and put insides on top for a fantastic poke bowl!!! Now I will say… we called at 2 in the afternoon, it took 4 trys to get someone to pick up, and we picked up our sushi at 6 but that’s because how could you not want this shushi!!! so plan for that but I would do it 100 times again it was so worth it!!! Keep up the good work you guys you absolutely nailed it!!!

Found out about this place while browsing for some good sushi online while we were at the Big Island

The reviews don’t lie
I had to call 19 times to get my order in and waited 1.5 hours to pick up the food- which worked perfectly as we wandered the streets and checked out some shops.

This place was a bit tricky to find. You have to walk a bit to find it. It’s tucked in so don’t think it’ll be right by the road.

Now the food
It was great
I had the sushi pizza – that was not so worth it but interesting to say the least. Would not get it again

But everything else? Way Big rolls for decent price. Yes it’s a big roll but the fish that fills inside is also huge. Def got the value and had left overs since both of us could not finish it

Was the sushi fresh? Absolutely. Was it yummy? Yes. But Was it worth calling over 200 times just to place an order? No. Also I did not care for the sushi Pizza. It just didn’t pair well and made my sushi warm so I would recommend sticking with the fresh rolls if you put in the effort to get sushi here. Another plus is that the rolls are huge. I have killed sushi boats between me and my husband alone but less than 2 of these rolls had me stuffed!

Very good rolls, large and tasty! Phone in orders only (as of the review date) and they had a sign saying it’s a 3 hour wait for walk ups. Not sure if that’s true (walk up wait time) but the phone in and pick up option worked just fine. If you’re looking for a good filling roll, this is the place to go!

Absolutely delicious made to order takeaway rolls. They’re generously sized – one per person is more than enough. Our go to for a perfect post diving lunch!

I found this place off a blog and I’m so glad I did!

In summary:

1. I called at 12pm on a Thursday, the wait at that point was 2-2.5 hrs for an order. Theres only 1 person assembling all the rolls

2. Orders MUST be placed in person. I ended up swinging by the shop at 2:30pm after lunch elsewhere to place an order for 6pm pick up

3. They can close the shop unexpectedly early so they can finish all their orders on time by the end of day (they close at 6pm). They were double checking with the chef while I was there at 2:30pm to make sure he can complete my order by 6pm. At that point, the wait was 3 hrs.

4. Wait was TOTALLLY worth it! I would definitely do it again! The rolls are 50% bigger than your typical rolls and there is a good chunk of tuna/salmon.

I got the North Star, Makai, Austin, and Spicy Salmon rolls. – all amazing rolls, I like the Austin and North star by just a smidge more, but I have no regrets with any of the rolls.

This is my favorite place to get sushi, there is absolutely no other place on island that can compare to their hand rolls. The owners are really nice people. Before the pandemic it was first come first served deal but since covid they are phone call orders only! It’s crazy but I have fun calling them 200+ just to get an order in, too me as a local it’s totally worth it! This is one of the best local places to eat. Supporting our local businesses.
Recommend My Favorites: Ninja Star Roll and Shrimp Tempura Roll.

The sushi was great, however, the service needs work. I called at 1100 and did not get through until 1130 at which it was going to take 2 hours til it’s ready. I believe the business needs to open earlier maybe around 1000. Opening at 1000 will ensure that people with lunch break between 1100-1200 actually has a chance to eat some great sushi. Also, possibly open a bigger place and hired more works.
