Great local sushi spot that's great for take out! Prices aren't too bad compared to other places and for the amount of food. Got a few sushi rolls, chicken karaage, and assorted tempura. Standout rolls were the lava roll and the hamachi roll! The lava roll was a good basic/standard roll that was a california roll with some ahi on top. Hamachi was the best bc it had hamachi on top and ahi in the roll. Karaage and tempura were good for takeout, but I'm sure would've tasted better if we ate it right away. read more

Food: first time here, and the sushi was delicious, everything we got hot the spot! We got water bottles instead of regular glass cup which I thought was very cool and fancy (haha), and that was complimentary! Service: it wasn't busy when we went so we got our food quick! Ambiance: it was a cute place to eat, nothing fancy read more

Always a go to for our ohana when we come back to Hawaii to visit family. They have the hi grade tuna(toro) and the garlic Mayo salmon is off the chart. The sunset roll is a must. Everything here is good. It's not a hi end type place, but the sushi is, it's a hole in the wall sushi place that we love. read more

It was my first time here and I seen on their website they had a garlic lovers roll I'm a garlic lover so I HAD to try it. I'm glad I did because it was sooooo so good. The roll includes tempura inside, seared salmon on top with garlic chips and some kind of sauce. I really enjoyed the roll. It was $18 but so worth it. They are located in the koko marina shopping center. read more

Hana Sushi is a small business that's very cleanly & minimal. The restaurant offered a variety of sushi choices & udon. The service was excellent, the sushi chef & waitress was very kind & patient with my party. The food was very flavorful, inside of the poke bowl there were takoyaki/tempura flakes which added a crunchy texture to the poke bowl. I personally enjoyed dining at Hana Sushi & would recommend getting a hamachi roll or poke bowl! read more

Did takeout for lunch and ordered a lava roll sushi with chicken karaage. It was the first thing I ate today except yogurt for breakfast so the roll was extra tasty. I'm a big onion fan so I love the thick cut onions in the tuna. Chicken karaage was crunchy, hot and fresh when I picked it up but I wished it came with a sauce like spicy mayo or something to dip it in. read more

Quick service- we always order for pick up so I can't comment about ambiance much, but it looks like most folks do what we do too. Food is made to order, a little inconsistent in terms of seasoning but always satiates. read more

The service was amazing. The workers were very kind. The food was just bleh for as expensive as it was. Hardly any flavor. But the fish was fresh. not worth the price to me read more

Pretty good when you're looking for a sushi fix and they make pretty big size rolls Nice quality for price read more

This little gem in Hawaii Kai has excellent sushi and other sorts of Japanese food. The sushi is extremely fresh and well-made, right in front of you. The shrimp tempura is delicious as is their gyoza and agedashi tofu. Prices are very fair for the quality of food you were getting here. Staff is always friendly and it's just a comforting place to eat good fresh Japanese food. You will not be disappointed!! read more

Our experience was amazing! We are on vacation and not only were we impressed with the presentation of the food, but the customer service was great. The sushi was DELICIOUS and prepared quickly. This location is BYOB which is super fun! We will definitely be suggesting Hana Sushi to future vacationers! Also the music playlist was top tier! read more

Hana Sushi - Dragon Roll! - Japanese Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Hana Sushi is located right along Keahole St. in Hawaii Kai Shopping Center. Opposite the side with McDonald's. I walked into have lunch by myself and was greeted right away. I waited a bit by the door, awkwardly looking at the menu because I didn't know it was seat yourself. Most places in town are not seat yourself XD This place is seat yourself though. I was given a bottle of water when I sat down. This is how they serve their water, no cups. Chopsticks, napkins, shoyu and hand sanitizer are self serve on the table. The servers were a few younger guys. There were a few tables. Initially with my first sushi roll I wasn't offered any wasabi or pickled ginger. Service got better after a table left. Later on after I got my second sushi roll, I was offered wasabi or pickled ginger, but by then I declined. I knew from looking at the Yelp pictures earlier that I wanted to try the 'Lava Flow Roll' (8 pieces): California roll topped with spicy ahi and green onion. This was super super delicious. And I totally recommend it. You can taste the freshness in the spicy ahi on top and they give a generous portion. I also sampled the 'Ika Geso Karaage/ deep fried Squid legs.' This was freshly fried. Hot and steamy, which I appreciated. Though some parts where slightly raw. I decided to chance it anyway because tentacles are my favorites. And then I debated on ordering another roll. I decided to go for the 'Sunset Roll' (8 pieces): shrimp tempura, cucumber + on top: spicy ahi, crab mayo, crispy tempura flakes. It sounded really good when I looked at the menu... but I'd say you should pass on this one. The shrimp tempura inside isn't freshly fried and by the time it makes its way into the roll, its pretty soggy and sad :( The toppings on top are interesting but they aren't the same volume as on the Lava Flow. I really should've just gotten another Lava Flow *face palm*. read more

For some reason it's hard to find good, authentic Japanese food in Hawaii Kai. I always have to go into town to get it. There's definitely a restaurant opportunity for someone! I've driven past Hana Sushi a million times since it's in the Hawaii Kai shopping center which is near my residence. Plenty of parking is available in the shared lot. They're right next door to a liquor store and close to Safeway. I was craving sushi and I wasn't too hungry, so I just ordered their salmon skin roll to go. Big mistake. I'm not even sure that there was any salmon skin in the roll! I think there was a little bit of salmon, but the rest was filled with cucumbers, masago and radish sprouts. Five little pieces for $10. I can't comment on the service since I ordered my sushi roll to go, but the inside seemed clean and spacious with a nice sushi bar set up. In addition to sushi, they offer various rice bowls such as chirashi, poke, tonkatsu, etc. They also have fried foods like tempura, gyoza, etc. Perhaps I'd return in the future to try other dishes, but I don't think I'd order sushi from there again. read more

Mother's Day lunch was great! My wife enjoyed her Shidashi Sushi and Karage chicken and I really enjoyed my Dragon Roll and Karage chicken. Good service and food quality was excellent. We'll be back again! read more

The staff is wonderful. Friendly, welcoming and very service centric! And most importantly...the sushi is delicious!

I never even knew this shopping center existed here. Haha. I will drive far to go to Hawaii Kai's Costco but I never driven past it. So when my good friend texted me out of the blue asking if I was coming to her side of town any day soon. I was like, I'm at your Costco rn. Talk about perfect timing. She was craving udon and mentioned this place. As I Google mapped the location, I was surprised to see it was literally right down the street. Hana sushi is on the corner off of Keahole street near the Safeway. Lots of parking in the private lot, including right in front of the restaurant. It's a quite small eatery with a couple of booth tables, a few small tables and a sushi bar with about 4 seats. We were greeted by the hostess who sat us at a booth. To my surprise, she served us bottled water. Menu has a good variety of sushi, udon, tenpura and apps. My friend got her udon w/tenpura along with an order of crab mayo. I decided to try their spicy tuna bowl. Food came out quickly. My spicy tuna bowl comes with lightly seasoned rice, crunchy tenpura bits and spicy tuna of course. Now, it's not the local style spicy tuna poke. It's the Asian style of negi tuna with some "spicy" sauce. To me, it wasn't spicy at all though. Fish isn't the best quality but it was good. My friends udon and tenpura hit the spot for her. Steaming hot and the batter was light and crispy. All in all it was a good meal. Fast service, clean atmosphere and solid Japanese options for diners to enjoy. read more

Very generous portions for shrimp & vegetable tempura entree. Pork tonkatsu bowl nothing special. Decent portion but a little dry & not tender. Guess I have been spoiled by other tonkatsu places in town. read more

This place deserve all the starts. Super underrated, the food was so good and am talking about everything. The freshness in everything was exceptional. Definitely try the Unagi nigiri. Am not kidding everything was so perfect. Food came fast. Good and quick service. Perfect price as well. No picture needed cause everything was so good that we eat everything in a minute. read more

Thank you Smee W. for your review and reminding me that this sushi place was still here :) We used to dine here prior to the pandemic. Pleased to see they follow protocols with checking our vaccination card and ID's, taking our temperature, and seating us at a socially distant booth from other patrons. Starting with the agedashi tofu, this was hot and fresh. Loved the crunchy coating and the tofu was spot on. Sincerely appreciate the dipping sauce on the side to keep the edges crunchy. We had the Hamachi roll and the sushi platter. Everything was perfect, fish was fresh fresh. No complaints at all. Thank you also for the hot matcha tea! Love all the free parking out front too :) Great food, awesome service, and the place is clean. Will certainly return! read more

We decided to try this sushi spot since we were in Hawaii Kai. This place is located by Safeway. The cuts of fish were fresh, Kabocha was fried perfectly, and the I like that they serve bottled water. When ordering, I couldn't decide if I wanted spicy ahi or just an ahi bowl. They let me order a combo (very appreciated). Lots of parking since it is located in a shopping center. Cute mom and pop shop. read more

We've passed Hana Sushi every week and we never bothered to try there. My husband is a sushi snob because he has lived in Japan so he normally doesn't like sushi places in Hawaii. But I was hearing some great things about Hana sushi on Nextdoor so I told him maybe we should give it a try. We've been there twice already. We got several sets of salmon nigiri, crispy rice with spicy tuna, California roll, cucumber maki, avocado maki, tamago, and another roll. On our second visit we pretty much got the same thing but I ordered a tempura udon also. The sushi was good. I liked the salmon nigiri sushi. It was fresh and melted in your mouth. I also like their crispy rice with spicy tuna. Seems like they fried the rice call and then put spicy tuna on top the rice. Tempura udon was okay. Shrimp was done well and wasn't oily at all. And it was nice and straightened. The udon was okay, you can tell it's not made in house. Overall I'm glad that we took a chance to try Hana Sushi. My husband even like it here. Now we have a place to go to when we have a craving for sushi. read more

We got carry out from here on our last day in Honolulu. It was very good We ordered 5 rolls: Crunch, Deep Fried Spicy Tuna, Garlic Lovers, Hamachi, and Fire Cracker First the way it was packaged was great and made to go very convenient. This place is in a strip mall so parking was also easy. All of the sushi was good. The fire cracker was definitely spicy, but still good. The hamachi was very good and one of my favorites. Overall we were not disappointed by any of the sushi and liked our choices. read more

This place is located in Hawaii Kai (Kuapa Kai) Shopping Center near Safeway. The special rolls were good. The fire cracker roll was fresh (see photo). The spicy tuna on crispy rice was only 4 pieces but each piece was good size. Unagi was fine. The hand rolls were a slight disappointment. We did a direct comparison to a similar hand roll from a nearby location and it was not as good (see my other reviews in Hawaii Kai) and more expensive. read more

Hana Sushi gets an A+ for pandemic compliance! Everything is individually wrapped - soy sauce, Wasabi, pickled ginger, chopsticks... Even water is served bottled! Plus, there's hand sanitizer at each table, not just one at the entrance. We're not regulars so we didn't have any expectations. The sushi is done perfectly, very fresh ingredients carefully prepared. Get the Sushi Combo B for its nice variety. We also got the Tempura Udon. The noodles had a nice chewiness, definitely not mushy. The soup was not too salty like it is at many places. Tempura was crunchy on the outside and not overcooked. It's worth a visit because you can dine in now so you can eat your tempura hot. Plus, there's lots of free parking, always a plus! read more

This small sushi place in the Safeway shopping strip mall in Hawaii Kai was a surprise. It was empty, one table left just as we came in and it was just us. Service was a little slow but adequate. Not sure if it were more crowded how they would handle it. We ordered the Zaru Soba Tempura set, the Udon soup with Tempura and the sushi combo B set. The tempura was crunchy and batter was not too thick. They give only 2 pieces of shrimp with fried vegetables. The sushi was fresh and tasty but a little pricey at $36 but pieces were good. My favorite was the toro. This is a convenient place since it is right by Safeway and Long's. read more

Good service. Food came out fairly quickly. Clean and relaxed atmosphere. There is plenty of seating for bigger groups. Parking is not a problem with the big lot out here. But it's the food quality that is my favorite thing about Hana. Best Unagi don I've had so far. I like the little crunch they put on top. Price is higher, but you're getting superior food. read more

I don't think it's my favorite sushi place on Oahu, but they do have a wide selection of sushi rolls. I ordered the salmon skin and deep fried spicy tuna rolls, and they are both yummy and unique.

Haven't been here since way before the pandemic and was pleasantly surprised. They had taken out the conveyor belt delivery system that always had some pre-made options (unwanted options kept passing by). The menu now reads like a "regular" sushi bar even though they don't have a glass case of their offerings in front boffins the chefs. Nevertheless, we enjoyed our fresh and well prepared dishes. Their pricing was reasonable! All the traditional seafood options were available. This is a Hawaii Kai sushi bar gem and will be placed on my goto sushi bar! read more
