50 Best Sushi Bars near Waipahu

“This is a great little bento shop. It is cash only. It’s also local, don’t look for whole grain rice, fine slabs of ahi, or anything of the like. The fried chicken is great with tasty skin. Generous portions for the price (about $9 as of late 2022)“

“Fantastic hole in the wall sushi place. We tried the sushi rolls, gyazo, and miso; everything was ono. Staff was very friendly, food came very quickly, and place is clean. Definitely reasonable prices.Weren't many midday customers, but i think it's cause Waipio gentry is just a low traffic area. They really deserve more, will be coming back. Cheehoo

“Is Soo good“

“Our server Maika is amazing, first time ever here. I recommend this place he was amazing so professional and kind. Thanks so much for your hospitality, and excellent services. Now and days is hard to get this treatment and we were 5. Thanks great job.“

“One of THE best sushi I’ve had on the island, I’m surprised they’re not more busy. The amount of food for the price is ridiculously great too!

If anyone is complaining about service, it’s probably because their food is actually made to go so it’s, yknow, ✨fresh✨ and it’s not just sitting on oil somewhere

Any complaints about “lack of flavor” is probably due to the fact they keep their food light, and the people complaining are so used to salty and greasy food that clogs their arteries ?‍↕️“

“I went there a while ago, and this is a great restaurant! Personally, I really enjoyed Baked Dynamite & Lion King. Also, all the employees, including the owner, are friendly. If you go to Waikiki, I recommend stopping by at least once.“

“This sushi spot is an absolute hidden gem! Tucked away under a covered parking garage, it might be a bit tricky to find, but it's well worth the effort. The sushi rolls are huge and packed with flavor. The Dragon Tears roll was a standout—simply delicious! Fresh ingredients, great presentation, and a unique atmosphere make this place a must-visit. Highly recommend for any sushi lover looking for something special!“

“Little place by the airport that packs some serious flavor. Fair warning if it says spicy it means it! Some of the best sushi I have ever had. Service was also super nice! I'll be coming back to try different rolls. They were very accommodating for my wife's allergies as well and understanding and recommended what not to have or to have.“

“Their sushi cake exceeded our expectations. It was so delicious and almost too pretty to eat! The 2 guys working when I picked up were awesome! Super friendly and one even took the time to show me the cake and gave tips on how to cut and eat it! Their customer service from ordering to pick up was exceptional!“

“Food and service excellent - we would go back again.“

“Super Q serves high quality sushi that my family and I were happy to find in Hawaii. The Crunchy Ahi Tuna Roll was our all time favorite! We ordered the mango strawberry smoothie as well, which was delicious. Would definitely come back again on our next trip to Hawaii!

Kid-friendliness: Claw machine and small jewelry accessories were available for purchase!“

“Excellent service, super fresh seafood. We had their omakase and a couple dozen raw oysters. Started off with the spicy salmon which was nice and silky. Then the sashimi plate came out. The otoro was buttery and delicious. The nigiri plate didn’t disappoint. The raw New Zealand oysters came out super cold and was really sweet.
The service was superb. Our server came to check on us and made sure our waters were filled.“

“We found this place on another online platform after going to the Dole Plantation. It is located in a strip mall that looks old and run down so we were skeptical. We located the restaurant in the corner of the lot (next to the Goodwill). We sent a scout in take a look prior lol. The scout gave us the all clear so we entered the restaurant, which was clean and had open tables. We were greeted by a nice man who took the time to get to know us and give us some island history. Ok to the food: There were 4 of us. Each ordered a different entree. 1. Spam hand roll and a tempura hand roll - deliciousness 2. Energy roll- this tasted very fresh and was a roll with eel and avocado on top with eel sauce- deliciousness 3. Ahi poke bento box- came out looking just like the picture on the menu( how many times does that happen!) lots of fresh fish and rolls- deliciousness 4. Tempura shrimp bowl with spicy sauce on top. Tempura shrimp Packed in a bowl on a bed of rice. - deliciousness 5. Spicy ahi poke bowl- came out with tons of fresh ahi covered in spicy mayo and sriracha sauce. - delicious if you like spicy fresh fish. This mom and pop shop deserves your business. The food (all of it) tasted fresh and made with care. I would not write it if it wasn’t true. They will serve you a complimentary miso soup to start ( no spoons here, sip out of cup!) All in all great grub. We will be back!“

“Loved the atmosphere, the music and the food! I had the spicy ahi and it was delicious! It didn’t even feel like I was sitting 10 minutes from home. Definitely will be back!“

“el buen servio .. y la comida“

“The service here is exceptionally friendly, and the food is delicious. The restaurant isn't usually crowded, which makes dining in a pleasant and relaxing experience. The staff were very kind and attentive. If you are looking for a quick and satisfying sushi meal, Ninja Sushi in Pearl City is an excellent choice!“

“After visiting Pearl Harbor, I searched for a good restaurant and was surprised at how delicious it was. The quality of sashimi was better than the tourist attractions in Waikiki and the prices were reasonable. I'm going to go again next time?“

“This place came highly recommended. It was absolutely delicious. Friendly staff, great pricing.“

“found this little gem and so glad I did! Poke is soo good and fresh with lots of topping options. When in KoOlina you must stop in for some Poke.“

“I wonder why they serve human food but have the name “fish food”? hm, the world may never know. anywho, i had the spicy ahi bowl (?) that came with rice, some fish, and 2 pieces of gyoza with sauce. the fish was good and had the spiciness of a 3.5 on the caucasian scale of spicy; has a little kick but won’t make you cry out for jésus or anything. the convenience of having poke on base was amazing but the portion size was not! $15 or so for a small bento sized meal is a little pricey as poke bowls at foodland are about $5 cheaper and they give you more fish and rice as well.For the size of fish food hawaiis spicy ahi, i have attached a pic to show the size with an ice breakers ice cube gum for a scale (didn’t have banana for scale)“

“we came from town all the way here for the first time and decided to eat here as they had no wait, it was a great decision in the end because the food was 10/10. it’s a super small family owned place, only one serve and (i believe) the owner going around helping customers. service was great and the chefs handed the rolls directly to us at our table once they were prepared! super happy with our experience.“

“I ordered the 2 choice bento with spicy ahi and teriyaki chicken. I didn’t take a picture because I forgot and ate the whole plate realizing I should have took the picture because it was AMAZING!!! There’s a sweet lady that works here, she seems like she loves what she does because of her smile! Definitely coming back(:“

“This place is awesome....especially eat all you can....it is really worth the money....food is delicious and fresh the cuts are thick and portion are perfect....otoro is worth it...the rolls and nigiri are so delicious...recommend aburagi nigiri hamachi so ono....“

“There's not enough space to right the good things about this place. As soon as you walk in, you are greeted and acknowledged by everyone, including the sushi chefs. Water and drink order is perfectly timed. Whether you order teishoku complete meals or sushi, the flavor and and portions are spot on. If you choose to sit at the sushi counter, the spread is just amazing. From white fish, tuna, to shellfish and sometimes even a fruit or plant to cleanse the pallet. I would recommend reservations as this place is always busy. Takeout is also very good!“

“Great sushi at a regular sushi price. Not cheap, not expensive. Good food. I've ordered plenty from here via Uber Eats. Now that I've visited in person once I'll definitely be back many times for the atmosphere.Nice restaurant overall with somewhat limited indoor seating of both tables and a bar. Looks like a nice cozy place and gave off a comfy home / apartment vibe.“

“They were temporarily closed, but now they’re back with new ownership and an exciting reopening! The menu is easier to navigate, with tons of new original drinks and even more yakiniku options. Definitely worth checking out for the fresh updates!“

“Good food and drinks … nice ambiance… friendly staff“

“The food is FANTASTIC and my kids loved that it arrives on a little train/subway looking thing. The place is busy which can make service slow but they're all so kind! Absolutely worth leaving the beach to eat here. Oh and it's surprisingly cheap!!“

“Fresh fish, and it has so many options, so ono...“

“I've never had shabushabu before and it was amazing! So many choices of everything! It's buffet and ridiculously delicious. So much food and so healthy too. Good idea to go for lunch because it's cheaper than dinner. And they were so kind to let me and my friend sit as long as we wanted. The service was wonder. I will definitely be back!“

“Had lunch here with a bunch of friends today after our Sunday morning meeting - it’s been awhile since my last visit, so when a friend wanted to take me today, I was exited to try it again. It’s been a long time since I had Chicken Katsu, so I decided to order that with all white rice instead of the Mac Salad. The Chicken Katsu was pretty thick and very very juicy. Two others in my group ordered the same, one with gravy, and they both loved theirs saying it was the best one they had. Other friends ordered the Cheeseburger, Fish Tacos, Cesar Salad and Portuguese Bean Soup, saying it was also very good. A friend shared her Artichoke Dip with us saying we just had to try it because the last time she came, her family ordered two. She was right! The Artichoke Dip was the best I had. Delicious! Highly recommend u order that. Another friend ordered the Cuban Sandwich saying it wasn’t too bad, but there was a sauce on it that wasn’t to her liking, but other than that, the service was absolutely amazing, our area was spacious and very clean, which made our gathering more enjoyable. Great meal with Great friends. Will definitely come back again!!“

“Anytime I'm at the NEX or Commissary, I get a bite to eat here. The food is delicious, no matter what you get on the menu. I prefer the shrimp tempora. It's always crowded in the food court (just how food courts are), but getting food to go is good too.“

“*Parking: Parking available
*Overall review: Waiting time for weekend lunch is 40-50 minutes. Ingredients are fresh and plentiful. Seasoned food is okay, but I recommend eating it as sashimi or sushi. 100% intention to revisit

There aren't many seats at the restaurant, but it's popular so the wait is long. There are a lot of take out orders as well.
Come with miso soup or hot tea before ordering!
I waited a long time, but it was great value for money, it was delicious, and the food came out quickly!
I was surprised that the sashimi was 2-3 times the size of other places, and the fish was so fresh that it melted in your mouth. Highly recommended!
What was disappointing was that the Spicy Ahi don had a strong sesame oil taste, so it was a bit greasy.
I recommend ordering mainly sushi or sashimi where you can taste fresh ingredients rather than seasoned ones :)

-Hamachi Sashimi $8.95
-Salmon Sashimi $8.95
-Spicy Ahi Don $12.95
-Dynamite Roll $7.95
-Soft-shell Crab $7.95“

“Always good customer service, professional and they get my order correct.“

Parking: It's in the corner so it might be a long walk to get there.“

“Excellent service and good food.“

“There was a wonderful koi pond in this restaurant. It was not that busy. However, they seemed shorthanded because I kept looking for the waitress for a take out box. Finally, I had to stand up and ask for one from a man in a red shirt who appeared to be helping another table. The food was good. I especially liked the tempura of pumpkin, and string beans, the shrimp tempura was perfect. I ordered miso Butterfish. My husband liked it, but I did not like that it had a lot of black char on it. I read somewhere that the black Char is carcinogenic.“

“I ate the bento with spicy ahi and teri chicken. It was yummy. I come here with all my friends.“

“Reasonable price, quality food and good atmosphere“

“Best spicy ahi - my favorite - and my husband says their miso soup is the best ever! Always delicious and their sushi dishes are awesome“

“Their bento is really good on the go and the food is fresh and great. Luv it!“

“Went to Matsumoto’s Okazuya for chow fun“

“I've been coming here for years, it's been a little tradition for me and my mom to drop in for some food any time she comes back to visit O'ahu. I haven't been back here for years but I came back tonight to grab some food and the owners and their daughter (i believe) were so happy to see me. The experience made me feel whole and so good inside. It's not long before these hole in the wall old school food places start disappearing. Appreciative of the smiles, awesome food, and soul I feel every time I visit Ohana sushi. I recommend trying it out if you haven't before, make it a tradition and i doubt you'll be disappointed. If you've already been here with good company im sure you understand what I'm talking about. Much love auntie and unko!“
