amazing fresh fish with lots of variety, friendly staff. the space is small and intimate and the vibe is perfect. You will need a reservation, no big parties .
We did the omakase. Omg. It was amazing. Flavors and textures I’ve never had before. Authentic, clean, edible poetry. Can’t wait to go back. Wanted to take a picture of it all but couldn’t help my self from stuffing my face. The staff were kind and hospitable and the chef impressive
Absolutely the best omakase on the island. I cannot say enough about the atmosphere and the food. Holy cow - just amazing.

Tanuki Sushi is a small, cozy Japanese restaurant known for its fresh and authentic sushi. The onaga, kampachi, and "kinki" are must-try dishes, and the hamachi carpaccio is highly recommended. The chef's creations are a highlight, offering a delightful experience for diners. The menu varies based on the freshest seasonal fish available, making each visit unique. The restaurant is a hidden gem on the windward side, with a selection of fish not typically found in other sushi spots on the island. The atmosphere is cute and perfect for smaller groups or couples, creating a warm and intimate vibe. Service is quick and attentive, and the staff are very friendly. The small size of the restaurant means reservations are encouraged, as there is often a wait for limited tables. It is a BYOB establishment with a $4 corkage fee, adding to the welcoming and relaxed environment. Overall, Tanuki Sushi offers an excellent sushi experience on Oahu that locals and visitors alike can enjoy.
