    Furusato Sushi - Waikiki, Honolulu, Hawaii 2420 Kalakaua Avenue, Honolulu, HI 96815 Visited: September 3, 2026 This was my first time dining at Furusato Sushi. We decided to give it a try because it was a convenient option and very close to our hotel in Waikiki. Overall, I would describe the experience as average. The restaurant was relatively clean, and the service was very friendly and welcoming, which I appreciated. We ordered the Garlic Edamame for $8 and the Soba Set for $32. The food was fine, but the servings were definitely on the small side, especially considering the prices being charged. Our subtotal was $40, and with tax the total came to $41.88. I might return if I were staying nearby and wanted something convenient, but I probably wouldn't go out of my way to come back. It wasn't a bad experience by any means--just nothing particularly memorable or anything to write home about.

    Great service, incredibly fresh sashimi. Small but well appointed restaurant. Incredibly efficient and delicious.

    Spicy tuna roll
    Tina H.

    Holy moly, I am so happy I stumbled into this place. They were so kind and we were a big party, but they were able to fit us all in and we didn't have to wait. I am not kidding when I say the is literally the best spicy tuna roll I've ever had. Seems like a very traditional Japanese Sushi Restaurant very small very high-quality super attention to detail. Loved it!

    Was expecting sushi here to be amazing. Small place but they did a great job with the layout to maximize number of tables/parties. Loved the salad. It was perfect and the chirashi looked so elegant.

    We got the chirashi bowl to go and it was fantastic. The fish was super flavorful with a great variety and really fresh quality throughout. Definitely worth the $40 -- honestly a ton of food too. Great takeout option if you're craving good sushi without the full sit-down experience.

    This place our eyes when we were walking past and we just knew we had to give it a try! Nestled in the heart of Waikiki is one of the best sushi places I have been to! If you're craving fresh and authentic sushi experience, this is it! We ordered Rainbow A! Every piece was so fresh! It was the perfect amount to share! The service was quick! We went at the perfect time. 2:45ish and it was right after the lunch rush. I loved stepping into this restaurant because it felt like a piece of Japan. It is very clean and I love seeing fresh sushi at the counter. Highly recommend this place! A must when you're in Waikiki!

    Best sushi place I have been to on Oahu so far. Clean cute small sushi place in Waikiki that has amazing fresh . I can't believe how good this place was. My friend and I shared the Rainbow A combo. Loved every bit!!! Service was so fast and kind. I will be taking my husband here soon!

    Diamond Head Roll

    Furasoto sushi was amazing! It is a cute little spot located in Waikiki. We visited on a Tuesday evening, and didn't have to wait to be seated. The staff was all very friendly and polite. I ordered the Diamond Head roll and it was some of the best sushi I've had! I will definitely be back.

    Quick service Great food Always a go to when I visit the island Look forward to the next trip for some more yummy sushi

    Hot sake
    Mileydi A.

    One reason we absolutely love Hawaii is the fresh seafood, and our first visit to Furisato did not disappoint! We ordered the Waikiki Bridge, which came with 16 pieces of sushi rolls and 12 pieces of sashimi -- salmon, yellowtail, and tuna. Each bite melted in our mouths. For the quality and portion size, it was totally worth the price. We also enjoyed the hot sake, which had a light lychee flavor -- not too sweet, just perfect for our taste. The restaurant itself is quite small, so be prepared for a possible wait to get a table. The atmosphere, however, was pleasantly balanced -- not too loud or crowded. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and even the bathrooms stood out with their beautiful décor and cleanliness. Overall, a wonderful dining experience -- fresh seafood, great service, and a cozy Hawaiian vibe.

    Went in for a drink and a couple pieces of nigiri. After having the salmon and the shrimp nigiri, I needed more... asap! I ended up ordering the golden c combination right after. I was left alone to enjoy my time to self, but whenever I looked up, the service was quick to acknowledge my wandering eyes. I'd say very attentive.

    This restaurant is very close to our hotel in Waikiki. We walked past a few time and saw a lot of people inside and they do not accept reservations so we thought we are out of luck. Turns out during weekday lunch time it's not as busy, we went and got seated in just 5 minutes! Being a tourist on Waikiki beach, it's actually surprising to us to find out the meal price on their menu are rather reasonable, we ordered two set meals and they came quickly. The sushi chefs are very friendly and professional, greeting all the customers. The food are fresh and delicious. Have to give them a high mark for this.

    The sushi was amazing! It was just what I was hoping it would be. I found this place just walking down the street. I was shocked how small it is! We put our name on the list and only had to wait about 15 minutes. It is decorated parsley but authentic. The staff was very nice.

There is walk-ins but I wouldn't risk it The food was incredibly fresh. As it goes without saying, when you're in Hawaii you're as close to eating the freshest seafood as you can without being in Japan. We both ended up getting their Signature Negitoro Bowl but the Tokujo version which has Salmon Roe + Snow Crab + Uni and added a fresh Yolk Soy Sauce. Because why not have the Lamborghini of Negitoro bowls while you're visiting here. Along with that I ended up with a half sized udon miso soup and my wife a crab miso soup. As you can see in the pictures the food came out looking just like it did on the menu, no false advertising there. The egg soy sauce was a perfect creaminess that complimented the saltiness of the Uni and Salmon Roe. Once you mix everything together there's even added house made soy sauce on the side of your want more saltiness back but add some yuzu ginger with each bite and you get that perfect blend of flavor. There's fish was insanely fresh and had zero fishy smell or taste. The rice underneath was cooked well and the side squares of nori was perfect to make our own hand rolls. There's no alcohol served but they allow you walk 15 steps outside to the nearby convenience store where they have the cutest little dog and bring in your own beer or sake. There's miso soup was good and warms you up, but will say the corner we sat on had the AC blasting (which we're not complaining) but it did cool down our soups a little faster than we could enjoy so in the end my wife's crab miso did get a little salty. But overall the food was amazing, service was friendly and vibes were warm. Absolutely will come back the next time we're in Oahu.

They only have about 20 orders available daily, so we always make sure to make early reservations for dinner.

Free validated parking is available next door in the parking garage beneath the Bank of Hawaii building. I really like how light and crispy their tonkatsu is here. And the Kurobota katsu just melts in your mouth! If they don't have that available their Bairin Pork Tenderloin Katsu is always excellent too! My girlfriend also likes their Katsu-Dons. Sets come with free refills of rice, miso soup, cabbage, and pickles. Last night they also had several new wagyu additions to the menu that we haven't seen before, along with a wagyu beef nigiri that we had to try and thoroughly enjoyed. Service here is fast and very friendly! We have always enjoyed coming here and the staff take great care of their customers. They also offer a Kamaaina discount for locals with a Hawaii ID, which is really fantastic for people like us who live here and enjoy this place!

Tables for seatings of two or more get booked up one month in advance. Single seatings at the counter are on a limited availability. Service is stellar, ambiance is very cultural. THE FOOD IS AMAZING!!!! They make their own panko flakes with bread specifically made from a local bakery for their restaurant. There are several katsu sets. You come in and are greeted in Japanese. There are two sauces on the table, spicy and sweet. They bring you a bowl with a wooden pestle. The bowl has grating edges inside the bowl with sesame seeds. The idea is to grind the seeds with pestle by rotating the pestle in a stirring motion, grinding the seeds against the bowl's grating edges inside. Then, add your sauce and mix. Use one scoop of the sauce first and add more as you eat your meat. Pickles are brought to the table of ume (salty plum), pickled baby eggplant, and white daikon. You choose your set, then choose your rice from three selections: Hokkaido rice which is slightly sweeter than Calrose rice, seasonal mixed rice, and seaweed seasoned rice. Then you choose your miso soup from the four selections: red miso with tofu, red miso with clams, white miso with tofu, white miso with clams. I had the set with the two pieces pork tenderloin and three pieces of the oyster. The round pork tenderloin melts in your mouth, easy to bite, and is pillowy soft. The seasoning is perfect! It was an exquisite experience! I have been to several restaurants that offer katsu, this is by far the best I've had! If this is what the food is like in Japan, then this will be my next international destination. Tonkatsu Tamafuji also has a location in Japan, so you know the Kapahulu location in Honolulu is authentic!

We were at a countertop seating, towards the restrooms. We could still see the cooks grilling in our peripheral view. We noticed that when it got busy, the place got super duper smokey really fast, to the point where they opened the front door to air some of that out. I wished they had a better ventilation system because we definitely left there smelling of smoke. As for the food, definitely shareable with different dishes from grilled meats to sides and starches. The server was also kind in helping us navigate through the menu when we had first arrived. There's a lot going on, in terms of specials of the day. Though I noticed, that when it got busy, we saw less and less of our server, and had to flag him down for more water several times. Save some room for dessert, for their sister company (Cha to Gelato Zen) is located right next door. Overall, if you're looking for a lively (loud) spot to drink and/or eat pupus, this place has an interesting vibe to it.
