This is hands down my favorite restaurant on Oahu. I have tried a good portion of what is on their menu and not one single dish has not been life changing. It’s made fresh, menu items are original and always delicious and the staff are always friendly. T8ste Buds is my go to restaurant! Way to go guys on an outstanding establishment is all ways.

One of my favorite meals I had on vacation. A little off the beaten path, but very worth the trip. Beautiful, quiet beaches nearby

Well worth the drive. Highly recommend the trio salmon taco. But honestly, you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Also, the staff is incredibly nice, especially with my thousands of questions. Wish they had a store in LA!!!

The veggie roll at T8ste Buds was amazing! The best I’ve had. The prices were very reasonable and the portion was larger than most places! Definitely recommend visiting this spot if you’re a sushi fan and appreciate quick and attentive service.

First time trying this place and it did not disappoint. The sushi tacos are freshly made, cruchy with each bite. I didnt know what to order but the staff recommended that I can choose from three different sushi taco flavors. I am happy they were able to combine so I can try them out., i really loved them all but most especially the ahi an salmon sushi taco. Overall, happy camper and would def go back again.

I had an amazing experience eating here. The customer service was outstanding they went above and beyond to help me find the perfect dish to eat which was so delicious. Exactly what I was craving. The taste of the food was on point. Trust you won't be disappointed. I would recommend this restaurant to all you sushi/poke lovers out there in the world, it's a must!!

All I can say is amazing. I got the cali bowl, which definitely fulfilled every taste bud. It had its starch (rice), crab, spicy ahi, and the perfect amount of toppings. Now, let's talk about their AIOLI sauce. It gives the bowl that little kick of spice filled with flavor, and the unagi sauce is the perfect amount to tone it down. Together, the taste is phenomenal. I'm the type of person who needs a little bit of everything in every bite, so the portions were perfect. I will definitely be back!

Good poke although a bit underwhelming compared to the reviews. The fish was buttery, but I would've appreciated some sauce to level it up. Regardless, I loved the toppings and it was good quality. I was intrigued by the sushi tacos although I was looking for more fish to rice ration, which is why I went for the poke bowl. The shop was a bit small and they had indoor and outdoor seating but when I was there they were all taken even though it wasn't too crowded. The service was good and the cashier was nice. Overall, I would recommend coming if you're in the area looking for fun sushi/poke.
The six of us loved the food, even the 9 year old! Super nice friendly staff, small but clean and cool inside with five bar stools, and six outside.

We tried their sushi tacos, with tempura nori as the shell, and they were delicious! It’s 3 tacos for $15 and you can get 3 different flavors.

Food is BOMB here, pun intended. Haha. The tacos are unique ( no tortillas ). You really can't go wrong with anything you order. Tried the tacos and the bombs and wished I had ordered more. Small little place with like 5 stools to sit and eat, otherwise take it to-go. Must try when you're on the west side of the island. Definitely going to be on my recommendations list !
