    A small clean Kozo sushi located in moilili, this used to be my favorite sushi spot growing up. Moving away from town, I only visit this location when I'm in the area. The service was good, not long wait time as I was the only person, I love their cone sushi. The tuna roll was fishy smelling and the spicy poke bowl was nearly as good as the Kozo Windward city. Lots of selection to choose from this location unlike the one at Windward city.

    Our got to hand roll sushi. My kids love this place. Great for snacks, air plane snacks, after workout snacks, lunch and takeouts. Our favorites: spam roll, California roll, and chicken Katz roll. They do have a great selection of sushi and sushi platters as well as takeout mini, bowls and regular plates lunch.

    This was my first time at this location . The sushi was the standard Kozo fair. I'm taking off a star because of poor sevice. I entered the store, and there was a lady working. She looked up at me and continued doing what she was doing. I got closer to the register, and she glanced at me and continued to work, not saying anything to me. Anther customer came in, and she stopped and asked me what I wanted. The other customer that came in did not get any acknowledgment . A couple of minutes later, she finally took his order. Hope this was the exception Enjoy

    Sushi my way fast! That's what my OG Kozo Sushi has always been. Gosh it takes me back to the days when I'd visit a family friend who'd always host the ultimate party gathering which was my dad's best friend and would always be so generously kind in every way. Mom would always make somethings that she knows they love but in addition pick up the platter from Kozo Sushi. Fast forward to their insane menu they have as it expanded to bowls, udon and even a make your own plate combo is quite mind boggling though I still do love their classic sushi as it's the nostalgia I've grown to love and is still the same in my opinion and knowing that I can walk in and get my order done the way I like is the best and they are very fast making it all to order. This location is in the Old Stadium Square so parking can be quite a challenge at times but I never really have problems finding a stall if any with a tiny bit of patience. The shop is quite small and nope no seating whatsoever though the vibe here is nice just a grab and go place is really what this locations is. Thank you!

    Very respectable and polite sushi stop, as are all the Kozo Sushi's in town. For delivery they are very prompt.

    Hardly any ume once again .. location is convenient but service is not the greatest and sushi rice is always hardened rice is not freshly cooked because I go there at 9:30 every time

    Looking for a fast to go bite? Kozo Sushi is the perfect spot for a sushi delight! Waiting for my favorite local Pet Supply Store "Heart of Town" to open, I cruised down King Street looking for a bite to eat! Seeing the friendly Sushi Chef Logo Bowing gracefully over the entrance at 2334 King Street caught my eye and pulling into the parking lot, I decided to check out the menu. Of course The "Don" menu drew me in right away! I decided to go with aSweet Chili Chicken Don Bowl - Great crispy fried chicken with spicy sweet chili covered with green onion & seaweed strips over a bed of sticky rice. Very good (More rice than chicken though) The Udon noodles also looked like a great addition so O got the Udon noodle Sushi Platter with a delightfully arrangement of scrumptious sushi bites. Very good for a quick bite. Counter space seating is small but comfy if you want to dine in. Most orders are placed to go. Call ahead and you will be in and out quickly. Very friendly service. Visa Master Card accepted!

    Best deals to order big platters of sushi for family gatherings or for individual indulgence. I had Kozo Sushi platters for two days straight. Oh my. The food tasted better when sharing with others but it was still great when I devoured the (almost) whole platter myself. I ordered this Junior Set plus two pieces of inari through Uber Eats.

    I usually go to the one on Keeaumoku by Walmart. However, that one went out of business, so I had to come here. This location is across from Stadium Park, next to Home Sweet Cafe. We picked up one of the Aloha sets for a potluck. It contained 42 pieces of assorted sushi, mostly nigiri. The seafood was fresh. I liked the shrimp nigiri and the ahi nigiri. I called the order in. I got there 10 minutes later and the platter was ready to go.

    Rotten egg sushi for Easter?

    At first I thought it was shoyu in the egg. but when I tasted it it was sour and smelled funny and a little slimy. Uhh never again. Seems like they changed to a Chinese owner . Mouldy egg is not my preferred sushi flavor

    Self note: get the Yamayuki Tuna. (chutoro) It's so good…read more The first time I tried sushi from Ginza Onodera was when they were at the Honolulu Fair last year at the Convention center and I remember their tuna was amazing I wanted more. Which led me to come out to town for their Maguro Fest at their store and let me tell you the quality of their fish, so good it melts in your mouth. Now, originally the prices are pretty pricy which you expect from sushi grade fish. The more fatty the tuna the more pricier it is but you know what treat your self, it's an experience. Since it was a limited time event, I get to try their otoro for half the price and you know what I'd come back for it again at its regular price to treat myself. Orders is through an iPad and you can pick through different categories and the amount of rice for your sushi. Wasabi and ginger is free of charge but if you need lemons for your water or fried item it's a $1. The staff was quick and welcoming which reminds of customer service in Japan. Good quality service and quality food. I'll definitely be back.

I think you'd expect quality food/service but this place failed in both aspects. I did not have the choice of choosing where to eat since my friends wanted to eat here. It just so happens it fell during the weekend of the Maguro Fair. Upon ordering our toro sushi, I noticed from the first bite that the fish was extremely stringy and rubbery tasting... My friend also wanted to celebrate my Birthday here but there was no acknowledgment at all, when she had a whole group of people singing for her when we celebrated her here previously. I have already told everyone around me about my terrible experience and will not want to celebrate any occasion here in the future. I didn't even want to tip but felt bad and left it as a severance pay that I will never be dining here again... Hate to say that this also cancels my experience at their actual premium omakase location in Kapahulu. There are many other sushi places to go to and I will not be returning.

There is also draft beer and a good assortment of sake. We got a 12-piece sushi set, a sushi roll, and a tako appetizer. Everything was fresh and beautifully presented. And I always have to get the uni nigiri with so much uni that it is practically flowing off the side. If I am getting uni, I want UNI. Fresh fish, generous portions, and beautiful presentation make Katsumidori an easy place to return to when the sushi craving hits.

My fiance won a gift card actually 2 of them (from his coworker whom could not get a reservation secured), we knew we had to make the trip over before they officially close. We had multiple dishes, but staff made Kauai prawns and tomato miso black cod dishes on the house since they ran out the Hokkaido scallops. We ordered the short ribs, lobster appetizer, hamachi crudo and lastly sashimi moriawase to finish food palate. Lukki lemon dessert was great way to end to night. Ordered the Milk tea bouquet cocktail while my better half had water ( either way the food coma knock him out cold the rest of the night lol). To be honest, it was difficult to determine which dish was the best because the staff kept quality there despite it being busy every night since they announce the closure. Sashimi moriawase, fish was so fresh, reminded me of my time spent in Hokkaido and Sapporo. Short ribs was soft and rich in flavor. Both me and my fiance liked the lukki lemon dessert, like lemon meringue pie but broken down version. If you have a chance to dine here before closing and got a reservation, definitely will have a lovely dining experience and your stomach will be full by end of the night.

We ordered the top sushi platter but unfortunately she didn't understand and made the mistake of bringing us a different one. It was fine for I ordered a bunch of side dishes. My parents and friend enjoyed almost everything. I think the three items I enjoyed the most were the yuzu pickled vegetables, the yuzu sorbet and the chicken karaage. Those stood out the most for me. For the whole experience it was rather enjoyable still how I remembered it used to be. There is ample parking in the back if you come early or street parking. It was a little difficult with someone with a walker but slowly we moved in and out so just need patience. Pricing was what I was are used to going out to eat sushi nowadays. I think they were supposed to give us a special dessert for I asked ahead of time and it wasn't brought. I didn't want to bother asking but this was a special day for them which I thought should possibly not be overlooked when people make reservations. Luckily I made a cake which they enjoyed at home. However the place is cozy, the food is fresh and the service is good.

I also don't understand how Yelp lists this place as a "good for kids". It's not. There wasn't a kids' menu and the dishes were not kid-palate friendly (other than maybe the basic California style hand roll). For example, the fried tofu had shredded ginger on top that permeated the dish and the karaage had a very mild (but present!) note of spice that reminded me a bit of buffalo sauce. Our waiter didn't even give us a heads up or point us in the direction of any dishes to consider for the kids (surely we must not be the only family who has brought kids to this restaurant). Lastly, I understand that the tempura brownie is popular but after tasting the "tempura" on the tofu I'm sure the brownie is just the star that shines through. The "tempura" on the tofu was gummy and not the authentic Japanese tempura we are used to (my husband, who is part Japanese, said to me "What is this?! Cornstarch?"). This is probably a great restaurant for drinks and hanging out with some adult friends but the rolls and appetizers were just not to our tastes. We were also sat outside when the restaurant was near empty inside and out (we went around 4PM) and it was a hot day (though the AC wasn't particularly cool enough for my preference inside either).
