This is a tiny restaurant with only three tables, and they accept reservations only. I enjoy the sashimi and the sake. The staff's service was very kind, and the food was well prepared.
It was very good. The sushi was pretty good and the service was pretty good. If you are coming on vacation I highly recommend it.

For our first time here we had high expectations with word from locals and reservation only. We ordered the omakase"chefs choice multiple meal". let me tell you, it did NOT disappoint and EVERYTHING was so DELICIOUS !! Absolutely wonderful service and atmosphere. It gave my husband and I a very personal and high end feel . Thank you so much for having us
My husband and I were lucky to get a reservation the same day here! The sushi was the best we've ever had, we definitely want to come back!

Incredible experience! Husband and wife team serving a 10-seat restaurant. The food was fresh and delicious. We got the omakase, and everything served was among the best we have ever had. Can't recommend enough! We'll certainly be back.

My wife is Japanese and she assures me not only is this the best quality of ingredients but also traditional Izakaya type atmosphere. It is truly the best authentic Japanese cuisine you will find in Kona hands down!
Seiji’s is the place you go if you know what it means to have really good sushi. His contacts for amazingly flavorful and deliciously fresh fish are among the best I have tasted. Seiji and his wife, Chie are truly delightful. Conversation that boasts an intimate family feel in their restaurant. Highly worth finding the time for a reservation!

Probably the best Japanese restaurant in Hawaii. The Omakase (chef's choice) was wonderful. The owners are extremely friendly. Reservation is required ??????

Brilliant establishment with great service and amazing food. It is definitely a hidden gem of Kailua-kona , the owners/operators are exceptional and will definitely take care of you! 100% a must.
Dietary restrictions: They have tamari for gluten allergies.
An amazing sushi restaurant tucked away in Kona. The place is tiny (there are 12 chairs total in the place, I think), and reservations are required.There are some excellent rolls (Seiji's special is, of course, the best), and the sashimi and nigiri was fresh and amazing. The tempura was also very good.I can't think of anything to complain about. I booked our next dinner as we were leaving!
Parking: There are both paid and free lots nearby. Expect a little walk given the downtown Kona location.
