Yoshitsune 2586 Kalākaua Avenue, Honolulu, HI 96815

"Had a lovely meal at Yoshitsune recently, and it's definitely worth talking about. The highlight of my visit was the exceptional service, particularly from a very kind elderly lady who made the experience truly memorable. She steamed the unagi (eel) rice right at our table in a pot and even involved me in the process by having me use my phone to time it. Such a unique and engaging touch! Unfortunately, I missed out on trying their matsutake rice, which I was looking forward to, but that didn't dampen the overall experience. The sashimi served here is not only generously portioned but also incredibly fresh. Following a satisfying set meal, we were treated to a delicious dessert that perfectly rounded off the meal. My visit to Yoshitsune was thoroughly enjoyable, from the attentive service to the quality of the food. It's a solid four-star experience for me, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for authentic and hearty Japanese cuisine."

"We came without expecting much. We just wanted to have some light Japanese food for dinner. But this place serves great food! I recommend the $50 Sashimi course. It comes with many side dishes and each of them caters to our taste. The sashimi is fresh. The neighbor table ordered sukiyaki set. It looked amazing too!"

"The food and service is excellent. Traditional Japanese cuisine. Traditional Japanese service. Excellence. The vibe and feel brought me back to my Grandma’s Saimin in Los Angeles from when I was a child. I could sit here all day and listen to the delicate rumble of the various Japanese dialects spoken during my amazing dinner."

"Really, 10/10 everything! We came here for breakfast on a Friday, and now it’s my favorite spot for breakfast on the island. They use high quality ingredients and I didn’t feel like anything was too fatty or salty. Must get the breakfast set. Their homemade tofu is so good. Oh… best natto ever. If it wasn’t in Waikiki, I’d go every day lol. However, super easy walk across the street, parking at the zoo… or valet."

"Hidden gem, indeed! $50 full course Sashimi Set was absolutely gorgeous. Extremely fresh. Many little delightful, housemade side dishes included for a stellar value. Scoop of ice cream at the end. I'll be back."
