They only let you in if you made reservation through their IG page. We drove one hour and they didn't host us.

Hands down best Sushi I've ever had. Lived in Hawaii 25 years and this is the best. Be prepared to be transported to Japan for the duration of your lovely meal.

ONLY OPEN VIA TEXT RESERVATIONWe googled for food, this place came up with fabulous reviews, we drove, paid for our parking and then found out we had to have a reservation well in advance. What a disappointment and waste of time/money. :(

Poke by day and secret sushi joint by night. Every bite was unique and delicious in its own way. Lots of care put into the preparation and Chef was very good at explaining every dish. BYOB and bring enough to share, it makes for a wonderful night.

Amazing place. Come at lunch for the poke bowls. Best poke bowl I’ve ever had (regular Ahi bowl on green salad and with the “punch” flavor)

Msged on fbook for the reservation number. Texted and gave two date options. Went with the $100 menu for 2. They responded in a few hrs and confirmed my 2nd date. Brought a 6 pack of Stella's for byob. Been to a few omakase's and this would top them all, esp for the price and byob. Total pieces was 15. More than we expected and were 90% (usually it's 50%). 20% is tip option number 1, but worth it. Will return next visit to the island.

A very rare and solid five stars. Also well deserved. I love sushi but have never loved it like this. Ignorance is bliss, and if you love sushi and want to be satisfied with what you think is good, stay away from this place. But if you want to know what real sushi is on another level, do whatever you can to check out 22 Kialua. Almost life changing. I've never really liked uni, but theirs was delightful. It was also pleasant to look at. Something usually not enjoyed. Every aspect of this place is amazing. Six stars across the board if I could. Each offering was delicious, flavorful and amazing. Each had its own unique care and delivery that shows the masterful art that is delivered with every piece. I will return, but until then, I will not find sushi on this level.

This place is great! Three choices for omakase $100, $150, $200. The best part about this place...? It's small (fits group of 10), personal, and BYOB! Chef is very energetic and interacts with guests all night. The differences between the $150 & $200 omakase are very settle. The assortment of various foods offered was diverse and great (not just a nigiri offering). This is the only omakase on the west side. It's located right next to K's Bento. Parking in the front or across the street. A definite for a private party 10 or less. Recommend the 500 seating, so you can stay and drink without any rush. Reservations are made by text.

Poke bowl for lunch was absolutely delicious! Salmon tossed in the spicy mayo sauce was my favourite but the tuna was also incredibly fresh. Very quaint interior and the food is artfully prepared right in front of you.
