In the many years of living in Oahu we had never been to any one of this chain of restaurants, we were looking for a different place to dine in the Pearl City area so we thought we would give it a go. As you enter, you can clearly see this is not a fine dining restaurant but we decided to try it anyway since the menu seemed extensive, we would find something that was okay, wouldnât we?. Another thing to note especially in hawaii, if there are no Japanese people dining in a Japanese restaurant, then itâs probably not that good. Warning unheeded we proceeded. We asked to be sat in a quiet part of the restaurant and the server did their absolute best to accommodate, all the servers and the manager was very attentive, polite, friendly. The quickest service award for the bringing of beer $8.50 to the table. Small Hot Sake $7 followed. The rainbow roll was made with immigration crab $15.50 overpriced. The shrimp tempura $21.95 4 cold and somewhat tasteless shrimp, 2 slices of eggplant and a green bean all in a limp tempura batter. The accompanying miso soup was okay and the salad was fresh lettuce and 2 slices of cucumber and grated carrot again okay. The chicken Katsu / steak combination both were fatty and almost cold in temperature. In short, The restaurant was very old, tatty and really a bit dirty, the food disappointing But the service was excellent.

2. Genki Sushi Hawaii

I went to a genki sushi in Waikiki, and was interested in the reasonable prices for sushi boat plates. Once we arrived and waited to be seated, I was uneasy with the fishy smell. I was willing to humor my husband and give this place a try. I wasn't going to try anything raw, I tried tempura shrimp roll and it was cold and rice was not flavorful. I tried inari sushi and that was ok, but didn't dare eat anything else. It all looked cold and certainly sashimi was scary in a fishy smelling place. We left after the tempura shrimp roll and inari. Not going back and don't risk sushi unless it's fresh!

The menu looks exciting and good. Going inside it's hard to tell if they're open for business. The place looks half closed and in need of cleaning. They mostly do phone-in take out orders. I guess enough people put up with the crappy service to keep it open, but I'm not sure why. If you phone in your order, and an older woman or a guy answers the phone good. If you get a young girl, ask her to read your order back to you and listen carefully. Counting seems to be a problem for her.The miso soup with each order is a nice touch. Check to see if they stirred the pot before ladleing the soup out. I only go because someone in my family loves their spider roll. Personally, there's much better sushi around, in cleaner places for better prices.

We got a last minute call for a wine and cheese sampling. My youngest daughter just returned from a week's stay in Portland, visiting various wineries. I know sushi is not the greatest accompaniment for wine, but what dah heck it goes well with sake right? Anyways, we had passed Kuru Kuru earlier and the place was packed so we decided to give Genki another try. To our surprise Genki was closed for renovation so the mrs suggests Kozo. We looked at the menus and most of the deluxe sets weren't to our taste so we decided to order separate temaki and nigiri sushi: natto (very good), ahi lover (ahi sashimi & spicy tuna were tasteless), salmon and California also tasteless, plus the salmon didn't look fresh, blt (where's the bacon? so little lettuce), tempura maki (too much mayo for my taste) and a few others. When our family gets together and order sushi there's never any leftovers, but this time my daughter snuck them in my cooler. All 6 of us agreed that Kozo will never be on our list for sushi.

My husband and I tried this place but were very disappointed. I specifically said âno shrimpâ in my soup due to an allergy. After two sips I quickly could tell it was shrimp broth. My throat started to close off! But compared to my husbandâs meal.... his dish came with a sharp piece of metal wire in it. Were they trying to kill us? Also... had to wait an hour for a meal we couldnât eat. We saw a plate of raw sushi sit on the sushi bar (someone elseâs order) in front of us for 30-40 minuets until they finally served it to the guy a few seats down from us. This place should be avoided.
