14 Best Japanese Restaurants near Haleiwa

“The Mahi Karaage was *chef's kiss* Atmosphere was very relaxing. Friendly staff. Fresh off the boat sushi! Interesting and unique cocktails as well as some traditional options. Highly reccomend for a kid-free outing.“

“The best pork chop I have had in Hawaii; it was perfectly flavored and cooked, and the sauce on the side was a perfect compliment. It was tasty and a large portion. Although it was above average in price, it was still worth the money. The place was clean, and the service was quick and friendly. It was easy to find and had plenty of parking. I would definitely come back for the pork chop again.“

“Great food, great service everyone is so nice, cheap eats and fast service. Highly recommend there ! We will be back. 💜“

“Great food!! The selection of vegetables and what not is good!“

“This is one of my Aunty's favorite places for beef soup. Just be sure to ask for half noodles because the broth is DELICIOUS and sometimes the noodles take up broth space. I go the basa this time and it was perfect. Highly recommend this little, unassuming pearl in Wahiawa.“

“The food was so good and really hit the spot. Husband ordered the black garlic oil tantan ramen and I had a combo meal of egg drop soup, gyoza, and chicken katsu curry rice. We especially loved the ramen because of how strong the garlic flavor is.
Service was great, it wasn't busy so we got seated immediately and after ordering the food came out pretty fast. The servers were nice and polite as well.“

“best ramen ever. You wont regret it.“

“Food was amazing !! Definitely one of my favs and will be back 👍🏻☺️“

“New owner has taken over this sushi spot and she is so nice and friendly! The food is absolutely amazing made fresh daily!!! Prices are very affordable too. If you love sushi look no further. I would highly recommend this place and new owner.“

“Love eating here with the family! Big portions and we always have leftovers. After school hours (because there’s a high school across the street), the place is usually completely full so it’s best to come not during a rush. Really friendly staff and is accommodating for wheelchairs. 10/10 recommend 😋“

“Went a second time here today and was not disappointed! We love Nagoya Ramen !“

“I ate the bento with spicy ahi and teri chicken. It was yummy. I come here with all my friends.“

“Cool place to sit and eat especially after catching the sunset at Shark's Cove across the street. Wake up this special of the day which was Marlin tacos, the fish was a touch overdone but not too bad. The sauce they put on top really set off the taco“

“I had the beef pho and garlic chicken wings. While the chicken wings had no flavor and seemed to be fried without seasonings, the Pho was AMAZING! It was fresh and had enough of the pho soup in the dish. I will be going back for the pho. Polite staff.“
