One of the 3 best omakases I’ve had the in US along with Uchi in Austin and Sushi Nakazawa in DC — this might be the best. The place is cozy, so the omakase almost felt like a private dining experience. Every single fish was fresh and delicious. The items are nonstop — amazing dish after dish. My favorite non-nigiri item was a broth steeped with a prawn. No words can further describe the experience — go try it. Thank you, Chef Kijima!
I really enjoy 22 Kailua for dinner and for lunch. I have to say that in my bowl today that included salmon and ahi; the salmon was not properly trimmed. There was skin and slow twitch muscle that messed with the flavor (fishier) and texture. This has never been problem in the past, so I hope they remedy it. If they had a phone number, I would have called instead of writing this review.
Enjoyed the ambiance. Cozy little spot, and it was awesome to watch the chef and his wife(?) work. The omakase featured a variety of mostly seafood dishes that had interesting and enjoyable flavors/textures (which was surprising for me, given my general lack of preference for seafood). Recommend!
