Tucked away on the same level as McDonald’s in Aiea, this sushi spot is a place where locals go. It might be easy to miss, but once you find it, you’ll be glad you did. There’s convenient parking, and while there’s no indoor seating, the outdoor tables make for a casual vibe.
Service is impressively quick, and the portion sizes are generous—ordering just one roll can be a lot for one person. If you’re with friends, I highly recommend sharing a few different rolls to get the full experience.
The staff (or possibly the owner) was incredibly kind and helpful. He let me know the fresh ahi was sold out for the day, but offered great suggestions for other rolls to try. Prices are fair, especially considering the portion sizes and Hawaii’s cost of living.
If you’re in the area, this spot is a must-try. Delicious sushi, great service, and a chance to support a small business :)

A mom-and-pop place underneath Aiea bowling alley. Heard the handmade sushi were good, but I ended up going with a shrimp tempura mix bento. There are couple of other bentos and sushi to choose from. Service was great and they bring out your food. I liked the shrimp tempuras, they didn’t use too much batter and the shrimp was good. There are couple of tables with seats outside of the shop if you want to eat asap. Parking is limited so you have to park a level below or above and walk. They take cards, cash, and Apple Pay.

Item: Spicy ahi bowl
Very sweet and kind staff!
Food was worth the price and it tasted good.
Salad dressing could have more flavor.
Personally, I don’t prefer my ahi minced as I feel it takes away from the flavor of the fish. But understand they predominately sell rolls, which explains why it’s minced.

Picked up a quick lunch before catching our flight at HNL. The fresh fish used with the dishes was very good. The portions are very generous and service excellent. It is located in the Aiea Center on the same level as McDonald’s.
One of my favorite sushi spots! When visiting from the mainland this is a must. We ordered the spicy sunset and blue hawaii this time, absolutely delicious. We can't wait to come back!

Friendly and fast service; generous portions and fresh fish. I believe the owner was also the cashier. Unique rolls; local, small business; casual take away spot. Small cluster of tables right outside in parking structure

The best sushi on Oahu by far! The value is unbeatable and the fusion style leads to having some of the most outstanding tasting rolls you can get. Additionally, the family that runs this shop is immensely friendly and Makoto's is an absolute staple of the local community. I've ate here most of my life and don't ever plan to stop.
