Sizzling Seafood Plate
Judy P.

Delicious food for a reasonable price! I originally wanted to take my spouse out to a romantic ocean view dinner but we opted to eat at Miyazaki instead. All I got to say is NO REGRETS! We ordered a roll, a hand roll, a bento box, a sizzling steak platter, iced tea and tempura ice cream.. $98! I don't know about you, but that was very satisfying knowing I didn't have to spend over $300 for one entree and one side. 5 stars also for service. They didn't rush us to eat or anything but somehow we were in and out in less than an hour!

First time in Hawaii and this was also our first meal here. It's been raining so we just wanted something quick. I quickly glanced at the reviews and it had a lot of 5 stars so I gave it a try. I thought the sushi and sashimi was just okay. I've definitely had better and more fresh sushi and sashimi. I was actually a little nervous to eat the uni because the color seemed a little dull. Usually for fresh uni, the color is a brighter orange. Some of the nigiri pieces were still pretty good. It's a small little place with a couple of tables. Service was good. Our bill with tip for a family of 5 came out to be about $400. A little steep. Maybe this is standard pricing in Hawaii? Not sure. Overall, food is alright and decent, but I don't agree with all the 5 star reviews. I did like that they had a kids menu though.

Just an amazing meal with exceptional service!. Very creative and wonderfully crafted dishes.

Made reservations here on our last night on Big Island. Very quaint place for a nice dinner out. The vibe is warm and you're met with a great smile by the staff when arriving. The food we got were also really good. Didn't take a picture but we also got the pork bun, shishito peppers and VIP roll. All were pretty fire, I can see myself ordering it again. Overall, this place is a really good stop for sushi amongst all the restaurants here in Kona. They're pretty new and only been in business for a few months but I can tell they're here to stay!

This is a hidden gem, easy to find, easy parking right in the front. You have a choice of outdoor or indoor dining. Indoors there are about 6 tables that seat a party of four, one booth for six people, and counter space - about six seats for a total of about 35+ seats inside the restuarant. We ordered a tofu salad, sashimi sampler, unagi don, and a yummy sparkling peach drink. The other customers in the restaurant mostly ordered sushi - all of the rolls looked great! Soft tofu salad was excellent with a creamy dressing that was light, citrusy and flavorful. Perfect for a hot day or if you want something refreshing. Sashimi sampler was superb! For $30, you get three slices: one each of salmon, hamachi, and maguro sashimi x 4 in a chef choice of flavors and sauce. Flavor 1: dill aioli - creamy, a little heavy and drowned out the flavor of the fish. My least fav. Flavor 2: sweet chili sauce with shreds of chili pepper - it was good, but nothing special. Flavor 3: garlic sauce - light and flavorful, delicious and tasty Flavor 4- yuzu and truffle oil!!!! Wow!! That was my fav! I wouldn't let the staff remove the dish even when I finished the fish as I ate the other slices of sashimi in that sauce! Winner! Unagi don was ok, and the sparkling peach was spot on for a drink at the end of the day. Service was great, attentive and cheerfully greeted when we entered. We'll be back the next time we're in Kona!

I wish I could give this place 100 stars. I am a sushi lover, but this place blows every place I've ever been to out of the water! Our server Lily was the SWEETEST! The food was outstanding. I will forever dream about this meal. My husband and I will fly back to the big island just for this place. If you are here do yourself a favor and book a reservation, they do get busy but 10000% worth the wait!

Sushi taco are awesome

Amazing service , Japanese fusion and IZAKAYA style . Great starter Manu also they use JAPANESE RICE THATS FROM JAPAN " THATS makes huge difference!! Chef are great experience

Kim S.

We had such a great dining experience here. The food was amazing, and we're really glad we decided to stop by. We came right when they opened, which worked out perfectly. We ordered Step to Heaven, Ankimo, sizzling steak, and a selection of sushi. Everything was delicious, but the sushi really stood out, super fresh and memorable. The steak was also incredibly flavorful and cooked perfectly. Our server was fantastic, she made sure everyone had a great time. You can tell this spot is going to do really well in Kona. I'd definitely recommend checking it out now before it gets hard to book a table. We're already looking forward to coming back and trying more from the sushi menu!

We tried Miyazaki in Kona last night for a pre-Valentine's dinner and it was absolutely amazing! So excited to have a new Japanese restaurant of this quality here on the Big Island. We started with sushi and Sashimi, king salmon, hamachi and the uni was incredibly fresh, rich, and buttery, and the scallop nigiri melted in your mouth. Beautiful presentation and perfectly seasoned rice. You can tell they use high-quality ingredients. The sizzling seafood entrée was another highlight served hot on a cast iron plate with tender squid, zucchini, onions, and colorful bell peppers in a flavorful sauce. It came out steaming and smelled incredible. Every bite was packed with flavor. One of my favorite dishes of the night was the carpaccio scallop appetizer. It was plated so beautifully with a light creamy sauce and fresh greens, almost too pretty to eat. The scallops were fresh and very delicate. The staff was very friendly and attentive throughout the night. The sushi chef even came out to our table to check on us and ask how everything was such a nice personal touch that made the experience even more special. If you're looking for a great spot for date night or a special occasion in Kona, I highly recommend Miyazaki. We'll definitely be back!

It is great sushi restaurant, I think this is one of the top sushi spots on the island! The sashimi was incredibly fresh and high quality--you can really taste the difference. The wagyu beef roll was absolutely beyond, rich and perfectly balanced. Moreover, the soy sauce feel so rich flavored, and when I asked actually they have homemade soy sauce. I also loved the double hamachi roll, super flavorful and fresh. On top of that, the servers were very kind and attentive. Highly recommend

4.7 rounded upwards Visiting from California Area and my wife is from Japan--the sushi on the rolls were fresh not from frozen. The Alaska roll w salmon w fish eggs on top was flavorful The agedashi tofu appetizer was in a soupy bowl unlike what we have had before and unique The highlight was the appetizer Saikyo Yaki Kanpachi which was miso marinated fish baked w the pink radish your supposed to chew off base to flavor it. Took little longer to make and last to be served but worth it and first of its kind I have ever had We went to KTA grocery store within few min drive which is an Asian grocery store filled with happiness and modestly large to get snacks afterwards!

Miyazaki is hands-down the best sushi spot in Kailua-Kona right now. From the moment you walk in, you can tell this place takes pride in what they do. The fish is incredibly fresh, the presentation is clean and intentional, and every bite tastes like it was crafted by people who truly care about quality. The ingredients and seafood are second to none -- you can taste the difference immediately. Nothing feels rushed or mass-produced; everything is thoughtful and dialed in. And the sushi taco? Absolute must-order. It's creative, perfectly balanced, and one of those items you'll keep thinking about after you leave. What makes this place even more special is that it's owned and run by a beautiful young family who clearly pour their heart into the restaurant and the experience they give every customer. The staff is inviting, genuine, and truly friendly -- the kind of service that makes you feel welcome the moment you walk in. There's also convenient parking available in both the front and rear of the restaurant, which makes stopping in easy whether you're dining in or grabbing takeout. If you're serious about sushi and want top-tier quality in Kona, Miyazaki sets the bar. Five stars without hesitation!

I started with a glass of Champagne ($30) and ordered a bottle of 2023 Vau de Vey Chablis Premier Cru ($95) to share while we perused the menu. We ordered Crab Cakes ($34) and Kampachi Collars ($17) to start, and Butterfish Misoyaki ($65) and Mac-crusted Mahimahi ($64) for our entrees. The crab cakes were fine, but not special. The Kampachi collar was excellent! The butterfish my tablemate ordered looked great, while my crusted mahimahi was okay. I liked the risotto under the fish; I just wished for a bit more texture from the crust. We topped our meal with Roy's Melting Souffle ($17) and Mac-nut Tart ($17). Service was good, but not as good as at Merriman's two days earlier. What do I like about Roy's? The consistency of the food, regardless of location. Recommended!

I actually enjoy the food, staff were friendly and the Restaurant atmosphere was nice. A perfect time no crowds.

It was extremely quiet, but it has a cool vibe and great ambiance despite being located right by the pool. We sat inside, which was perfectly comfortable on a crazily humid afternoon. The hostess was lovely and accommodating, and our server, Ashley, was exceptional in every way. Blessed with a great personality, she was highly attentive and gave excellent suggestions and input. The Sticky Ribs were delectable, as were the Pork Bao Buns. My wife loved the Toro Tacos, and I had the Sashimi Salad. The fish was super fresh and delicious, and the ginger dressing was otherworldly! While the fish was cut a bit oddly into large cubes, it was still super fresh and delicious. They offer really good sake, along with several other nice-looking cocktail and wine options. Maybe a bit pricey for some, but a great choice at the Andaz!

We arrived early enough that our appetizers were coming out quickly, but by the time we got to the hamachi entree, the restaurant got busy and service slowed significantly. 5/5 sticky ribs - ORDER THIS. Easily one of the best things we ate on this trip. The ribs are lightly battered, yet is still fall-off-the-bone tender, and the sauce is addictive 4/5 wagyu carpaccio - the beef was tender and paired perfectly with the yuzu. Not bad, but I've had similar dishes before. 3.5/5 Toro tartare - the presentation with the different sauces was unique, but I've never had tartare that was blended into a pulp before. The toro was also a little fishy. 2/5 hamachi / yellowtail entree - it was battered and pan-fried hamachi. Nothing special or memorable. 3.5/5 ginger beer (not pictured) - was pretty light in flavor, but I liked that it had a homemade quality to it. It was nice and refreshing with the meal. The restaurant is next to the kiddie pool, so it can get noisy depending on the time of day. There are better places to splurge on the island.
