Nobu Honolulu

Nobu takes fine dining to the next level. Amazing experience from the moment you walk in! We got there early to have a drink at the bar, very chilled and relaxing area to start off with. The cocktails are amazing and good selection of beer on tap Our waiter was great very friendly and expanded the menu with such passion, I would of ordered ice cubes if he was reading them from the menu. The food was on point, quick to come out, fresh and quality is guaranteed. 6/5 stars

Simply amazing atmosphere and service. We did the Signature tasting and you can never go wrong with the chef’s specials. We had Derek as our server and he was beyond fantastic.

Nobu Honolulu is my favourite Nobu. The food here is phenomenal, the drinks are fantastic, the atmosphere is cool, and the service is excellent. I've been to this restaurant many times, including when it was still Nobu Waikiki, and it never fails to please. The menu is innovative and the flavours are well thought out. Highly recommended!

An amazing experience here at Nobu. Always a pleasure to visit a Nobu, and the one here in Honolulu is amazing. The staff are all great and the food is phenomenal. I highly recommend checking this place out for amazing Japanese food. The food is all fresh and prepared beautifully. Our personal favourites were the sashimi and the black miso cod but everything we had was just amazing. Definitely will be back again in the future.

We were group of 6 and ordered premium omakase. Some of us could not eat raw food due to health conditions so we asked them to surprise us on some of the courses. In general, the ingredients were top quality and their services were excellent. However, this would not be the place if you really want the authentic Japanese omakase style. We definitely enjoyed the great ambience and the desserts were really great as well.

We were very disappointed that Nobu moved from its Waikiki location but still had to make a visit during our holiday and so glad we did. The new location is really gorgeous. Dramatic and beautiful. We ordered the omakase and were not disappointed. Every dish was delicious and tasty. The white peach sangria is not on the menu anymore but they will still make it for you. It is still my favorite drink. So yummy. The meal was delicious and I was in love with Nobu all over again. We make it a point to visit here as a treat every trip to Hawaii.

Tried signature tasting menu. Everything was tasty and we were pretty full even before beef arrived. Service is quick, sometimes though waitress would start burning new dish and only then notices that plates from previous turn were not brought away. Ousters were better than in France!

This is my second time at Nobu's. Never disappoints !!! I ordered: * Baked King crab with truffle - comes with slightly but perfectly seasoned raddish.... sweet citrus... great compliment. - However it's a LOT!! Recommended to share with at least one other person. - Also option to get it with snow crab for half the price. :) He ordered: * Prime ribeye steak with 3 sauces (raddish sauce, shoyu ponzu sauce, fish flakes) + caramelized onions . - Lots of veggies (cabbage, pumpkin, mushrooms, brussel sprouts, bell pepper, cauliflower, broccoli, potato) We shared: * Waygyu manapua - Rich and decadent. Creamy center. Slightly spicy-- watch for the bite!! * Butter mochi dessert with icecream - You will not regret this warm, sweet, cold, mix of DELICIOUSNESS!!! Service: - Our server was TJ and he was so awesome!! We were unable to RSVP since they were full. Luckily, we were able to walk in and score seats at the sushi counter. Even more lucky that we got TJ as our waiter. TJ helped us from start to end! He did a great job in reassuring my boyfriend (who is allergic to seafood) and providing excellent MEATY recommendations. :) TJ really went out of his way to provide above and beyond customer service to us. Good food, great service, and even better company. :)

Really delicious food however the price is a bit high for what you're getting. Happy hour is where this restaurant is good. You can get a full meals worth for half the price of a regular day. Overall food was ono though, fish was good cuts and drinks were on point

This is probably my 8th time dining here. The food is always consistent and very good. Highly recommended. The highlight of the dinner was definitely the first item on the menu - the otoro with uni on top. Exceptional. The last dish was equally impressive: unagi with foie gras, torch-seared tableside. Very flavorful and expertly prepared. Both dishes were outstanding and highly recommended.

Came here for a work dinner and we got the omakase! Overall really great experience, great vibes, delicious food. Service could be quicker. Come hungry.

Robata JINYA Hawaii was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. The chawanmushi was delicate and comforting and a perfect way to start my meal. But the true standout? The A5 wagyu gyoza. Hands down the best gyoza I've ever had. The wrapper was thin and crisped just right, but the inside was unbelievably rich, juicy, and melt-in-your-mouth because of the wagyu. It's the kind of dish you think about long after it's gone. The hot stone A5 wagyu garlic rice came out sizzling and aromatic.... a fun and flavorful dish The purple sweet potato mont blanc was a whole performance! The staff plated it right in front of me, and it was just as delicious as it was stunning. Speaking of the staff... they were amazing! Super friendly and attentive making it comfortable to dine. They are clearly passionate about the food. Their energy really elevated the whole experience. Can't wait to go back!

Another AMAZING experience tonight!!! This is our favorite omakase place. Henry is so great and makes delicious creations. Everything is so well put together, taste and presentation. Everything we've tried on the menu has also been delicious. I also found a new favorite sake tonight (Hakuryu I think). The service has been excellent every time too - from the person taking our reservation, upon arrival, our servers - everyone is fantastic. Love the ambience too. It's luxurious without feeling uppity. Highly recommend!!

We went on a weekday, and service was quick and excellent. The food tasted good quality. What caught my eye on the menu was the salmon roll with lime on it. That one was interestingly good! Turned out to be one of my favorites. The sourness wasn't too strong, and that was what surprised me (in a good way)!

Stopped by this spot for happy hour, and while there were some things I really liked, there were also a few areas that could definitely use improvement. To start with, it took quite a while for our server to come by and greet us. We sat for a bit longer than expected before anyone came to take our order. It almost felt like they forgot about our table at first, which wasn't the best way to kick off the experience. That said, once we did get our order in, they were accommodating and still allowed us to get in two rounds of happy hour orders, even though the timing was cutting it close--so props to them for that flexibility. The food itself was quite good--everything we ordered was flavorful, fresh, and nicely plated. Definitely no complaints on the taste or quality. However, the wait time for the food was on the longer side. We even had to remind our server that a few dishes hadn't come out yet, which made the whole process feel a bit drawn out. Because of the delay, we ended up hesitating to order more happy hour items since we weren't sure how long it would take, and didn't want to end up over-ordering or waiting too long again. As for pricing, outside of happy hour, it's definitely at typical sushi bar price points--not outrageous, but definitely not cheap. If you're watching your budget, I'd highly recommend sticking to the happy hour menu. Otherwise, it might not be the most wallet-friendly option. The interior, though, is a highlight. The space is bright and airy with lots of glass, which makes it feel open and not cramped at all. We were seated right by the front door, which was fine, and the overall ambiance was clean and modern. The hostess was very friendly and welcoming, which added a nice touch to the experience. Overall, this place has potential. The food is good and the space is comfortable, but the service could use some fine-tuning, especially during busy hours. I might give it another try--hopefully next time the pacing will be a bit smoother!

The ambiance was elegant, quiet and pleasant. Our server was attentive and we did not wait long for our food. Everything we order tastes so good!! Then sushi was fresh and it melts on your mouth.

I enjoyed an early dinner at Robata JINYA as I was headed to the Ward Theaters to attend a viewing of the IVE: 1st World Tour concert video. I got there a little early and found myself to be the sole diner at this large venue. I started with a Hendricks gin & tonic ... My first surprise, I received a Sipsmith London Dry gin & tonic. It was fine; I've had Sipsmith previously. The manager (I think) said it was Happy Hour, so I ordered off that menu. I started by ordering six of the seven Robata-Yaki items (Miyazaki Wagyu Tsukune, Tender Beef Tongue, JIDORI Chicken Thigh, Pork Belly Chashu, Saba, and Oyster Mushroom), The Nigiri (Seared Salmon, Kona Kampachi, and Tai), and JINYA Ceviche. The dishes came in no particular order, the ceviche arrived first, followed by the sushi, then the tongue, pork belly, and mushroom. The Saba arrived next, then the Wagyu Tsukune, with the chicken arriving last. I asked for another gin & tonic and ate everything. I would have preferred that the dishes arrived more slowly ... This is an issue I've encountered at this restaurant in the past. Yakitori should be consumed as soon as possible to maximize the flavors. Luckily, I eat very quickly so none of the dishes sat untouched for very long. I ended my meal with a cup of tea. I ordered it just to delay my departure ... It hadn't been 30 minutes since I sat down. All in all, I really enjoyed my meal ... Victoria, my server was personable and the other two (manager and server) were friendly too. The food has always been great, just a more relaxed delivery of the dishes would make it even better. My bill came to $94.25 before tip. This was a much better experience than at two other nearby restaurants. If I'm going to Ward Theaters, I'm dining here. Recommended!

Didn't quite meet the 5 star expectation just because the Dashi or soup itself was overpowering. Everything like the service and vibe of it all was nice. I just wished that the food was a little better

We dropped by here for Happy Hour (4-6pm). We had Wagyu Tsukune, oyster mushrooms, spicy tuna and Kampachi hosomaki, Wagyu gyoza, and agedashi tofu. Everything was good, especially Wagyu Tsukune and agedashi tofu are must try dishes. They are not only beautiful but also delicious! Lastly don't forget to order purple sweet potato Mont Blanc: they will bring this incredible machine to top purple sweet potato strings in front of you! Thank you very much for delicious foods and nice service: we will sure to visit again. PS Wednesdays are all day Happy Hour there

First tried this spot for a Yelp event and went to the LBD and Ramen spot a few times too. Came here with a bunch of friends. The inside is very modern with Japanese influence and it is designed really well. It's spacious, clean, and has a nice ambiance. Service was very good, she was friendly, attentive without hovering, and pretty accurate considering there were many of us and we had separate checks. The food here is great. There are different menus depending on the time you dine and we were all thrilled there's Happy Hour every day! The Happy Hour menu has quite a lot of offerings from drinks, to robata grilled items, to cold or hot kitchen items, and sushi! Everything we had was delicious and even better than I remembered. Had way too many items to list but I'll include the photos. Could not go wrong with anything I had. Will be back!! Portions are a good size for Happy Hour prices and it gets filling when trying a bunch of different dishes.

Came here to meet up with some friends. Didn't expect happy hour, so that was a huge plus. Ordered a load of nigiri and some other items and a few drinks each. I wish I took pictures, but the drinks looked great - the lycheetini came with lychee bubbles - and it all was so delicious. The atmosphere was great and the service was excellent. These days it's hard to find a place to unwind after work and I'm glad we found Robata Jinya. We will definitely be back. Also, Wednesday is happy hour all day, which looks like 4:00pm until closing!

We kicked off a pre-birthday celebration with the $140 Omakase, which served up around 20+ different dishes. For the price, it was actually a solid deal. The portions weren't shy; they were generous enough to leave us full, happy, and leaning back in our chairs like seasoned sushi pros. The fish was fresh, the cuts were clean, and everything was plated with care. But flavor-wise, it leaned a little safe, like your dependable friend who always shows up on time but never adds wasabi to their soy sauce. It could've used a bit more flair or surprise in a few of the courses, especially at this price point where you secretly hope at least one dish makes you gasp. Still, the vibe made up for it. The staff were warm, friendly, and genuinely seemed happy to celebrate with us. The ambiance was calm and welcoming. It felt like a place that wants you to stay awhile, sip some sake, and toast to another trip around the sun. All in all, a lovely experience. Not mind-blowing, but definitely a satisfying way to pre-party with some quality bites.

Came here for a girls dinner and got to try some of their happy hour specials. The interior aesthetic is very pleasing and romantic. I really enjoyed my Makaha sunrise, it was fruity and delicious! The food was okay, some dishes fell short. The purple sweet potato was underwhelming & very plain. The agedashi tofu was not that great either, instead of coming in the usual broth it came in a sweet & sour sauce. The jidori was small and the meat was very tough.. I did however enjoy the seared salmon nigiri and spicy tuna crispy rice. Overall I wouldn't come here for dinner and pay full price for the food, as I don't find the quality meets the price point. Def snag a HH reservation.

We decided to check out Robata Jinya AGAIN. They have a great happy hour that doesn't disappoint. They had a special "Taste of Ward Prix Fixe" menu for $40. It was similar to their regular Prix Fixe, but $8 cheaper and doesn't have the add-ons. Drink specials that everyone can enjoy. Tons of parking across the street in the Theatre parking or at Whole Foods. The staff we friendly and informative. Make this place one of you goto places for happy hour. Aloooooooha and happy eating.

Came here for a night out and was not disappointed. We made a reservation and we were able to get seated immediately upon arrival. They have very fun cocktails that were also tasty. They have a huge variety of small plates/sushi and rolls to share, and very reasonably priced. They also offer omakase and set menus which I would definitely go back to try! All the servers were very friendly and prompt with bringing out our plates, refilling water and clearing any dirty dishes. The inside is very clean and perfect setting for a date night or just a girls night out with the ambient lighting. I would definitely come back here!

Wow this was spot was absolutely amazing from the service to the food. The restaurant was very cozy. The menu had just about everything. I love Sea Bass so got the skewer which was just delicious. I wish it was a bigger portion, It was cooked perfect and the sauce they put on it was drool worthy. The happy hour menu was great and the best options.

So glad I tried their new & recommended menu items..High quality ingredients! The Ceviche, the other lobster entrees and to be honest everything was great! From delicate nigiri to smoky robata-grilled delights, each course is a masterpiece for sure! And yes, I tried raw sushi for the first time!! It was absolutely divine! I paired my meal with their signature Lychee-tini + the intriguing Smoky Wakashi cocktail + the Matcha Dessert was the icing on the cake. The ambiance is always good and the service is top notch. One of my favorite spots in Hawaii now! I'll be back asap! Whether you're a local or visiting, Robata JINYA's omakase is a must-try experience!!

Ordered Spicy Vegan creamy ramen via Instacart. The bowl of broth barely had enough in the bowl. Past orders gave way more broth. And the food came very cold. Called the restaurant and all they could do was to offer free broth, but I had to go down in person. Ordered via Instacart because was at work. Complaint via Instacart pending. Delivery bag came sealed, so no evidence of tampering by the Uber driver Update: Instacart / Uber Eats will not issue a refund for the portion size issue. So be careful when ordering from Roberta Jinya for delivery

I've been to JINYA Ramen but my first time here at Robata. We were seated immediately at a table in front of the sushi bar. Interior nice, atmosphere soothing. They had a special 6 course menu for $48.00. It was such a great deal. For a few courses you are able to select your options. For example you could add the Wagyu for an additional $18.00. You may select sushi or a truffled rice dish. The only downside to this is that everyone needs to order the same menu item. Which meant we all ordered the Wagyu, and every other dish needed to be the same. Bummer. Other than that food was good. Like the menu stated it was a 6 course meal, which means it literally comes out 1 at a time. So if you like your food all at once, order off the regular menu. In addition to the 6 course, I had the seared Salmon Nigiri and a glass of Umeshu. Food took a little while but, it was very tasty. Once you're done have dessert. Definitely will b back!

Omakase dinner service has to be the best on the island. Make sure you seat at the bar by the chefs

Friendly and happy staff members, we enjoyed the happy hour menu, delicious foods with quick service, everyone seemed happy.

My first experience was terrible but the previous times it has been excellent. I went to the sushi bar for omakase nigiri and chef Henry was great! He asked what we enjoyed and not. The nigiri he served was fresh, flavorful, and tasty. The course starts with miso soup followed with 12 courses? I didn't upload all the photos of the sushi. Anyway, excellent service at the sushi counter and it has been one of my favorite omakases to eat! Some of my favorite nigiri include: smoked otoro with uni, king salmon, unagi foie gras, kimedai, hotate, and more. The omakase does vary depending on the fish they have that day.

Wow! Yummy food, great ambiance, a little dim for these old eyes, but does lend to the mood, but most of all... Tori (Victoria on my check) was so awesome! Great service and a warm attitude. Will come back for sure!

Across from the Ward theaters, Robata JINYA occupies a large space that feels upscale, spacious, and clean. There is parking in the Ward parking lot and other lots around Ward. There are a lot of options on the menu but we ended up with a few skewers of beef and chicken, salad, the hot stone A5 wagyu rice, and the purple sweet potato mont blanc. The skewers OK but the standouts were the wagyu rice, mont blanc, and the lychee martini. The wagyu rice was tasty. The mont blanc and lychee martini were neat due to their presentation. The mont blanc was made with a special machine that churned out the mont blanc spaghetti shape. The lychee martini was made with what seemed to be a little bubble machine. These were very neat for presentation purposes and both tasted good!

This place is super fun! They offer an omakase but I keep ordering from the menu because their selection are delicious. Their happy hour menu is great and they offer to-go boxes of their sushi which is great if you're looking for a night in or even something to bring to a party. I'm a big fan of their sushi and teppanyaki! Try the lychee cocktail with the bubble gun!

My friend invited me to try Robata Jinya. It was my first time trying this place out. I did dine at their ramen bar and I was looking forward to try their sushi rolls and their Izakaya menu. Spicy tuna on crispy rice: This was not bad. The spicy tuna was good, but the crispy rice wasn't too crispy. Foie gras dashimaki tamago: The tamago was thick and pretty huge. It was delicious. The foie gras gave it a more savory buttery taste. It was pretty strong in flavor but wasn't too overpowering. Wagyu Tsukune: This was pretty bad. It doesn't taste like Wagyu beef. The meat was overcooked and it was pretty dry and flavorless. Octopus: The octopus was alright. It was pretty plain tasting but has the right texture. The pesto sauce on the side didn't do much to help add the flavor. Tebasaki: The menu labelled this as chicken wings. This was the oddest and skinniest chicken wings we've seen. The seasoning was good but the meat was very little. We were pretty much biting on bones. Thick cut prime beef tongue: My favorite dish of the night. The beef tongue was chewy but tender and very delicious. Would definitely recommend this. The skin on the bottom is what I believed was a slice of potato. It didn't taste edible. California dynamite: Very good roll. The baked dynamite sauce was very good with a good amount of scallops. Spicy creamy shrimp roll: The shrimp was crispy, creamy, and good. The spicy tuna in the roll was delicious. Seared Kona kanpachi jalapeño roll: My favorite roll out of the 3. This was very good with a tangy savory taste. Strawberry parfait: The parfait was okay. There were some lady fingers that tasted very raw and doughy. The fresh strawberries were good but the strawberry cream and sauce tasted very artificial. It would be better if there was strawberry flavored ice cream on top instead of the whipped cream. There should also be some crunchy textures but it was all pastries. This dessert tasted more like a cake than a parfait. Overall, it was a not a bad dinner. Some dishes were a hit and a miss. I really enjoyed the rolls, tamago, and the beef tongue. The rest were pretty sub par. The service was good. Our server checked up on us and refilled our waters often. She was nice. Will definitely come back to try their other sushi rolls.

Every single time I order takeout from here the food is not ready when they say it will be and I am stuck standing there for 10-15 minutes... all I do is order sushi. It shouldn't take 40 minutes to make uncooked food. The restaurant is not crowded. I order directly on their website too (not third party like Uber eats)

I sat at the sushi bar and tried the $85 omakase for dinner for 13 pieces of nigiri. What a deal that is for dinner omakase. Several premium cuts including uni, horse mackerel, Kona kampachi, and toro. Chefs are super nice and the dining room feels very modern and elevated.

All I can say is 10/10!!! Thank you KENNY and JASON for your amazing service! You are the reason why I'll be back. I went to Robata Jinya last night to celebrate a friend's birthday and Kenny was so helpful and enthusiastic. He was very attentive and showed so much kindness to us before he even knew it was my friend's birthday celebration. Kenny was so thorough in explaining the menu to us and just talked about food items with a passion vs just explaining the menu to us like it was just a job. Jason was also very attentive and kept asking us if we'd like refills on our alcoholic beverages. The kindness of the staff is the reason why we all had such a great experience. The king toro and lime sushi rolls were amazing!!! Fish was fresh and full of flavor. We had the matcha tiramisu and the sweet potato dessert which were so good! I feel like many sushi places lack great desserts but not Robata Jinya. Also loved the vibe and the ambiance, lighting was just right and not too bright. I look forward to coming back here for my birthday!

We came here on a weeknight and it wasn't extremely crowded, so we got a table right by the sushi table right away. Service was good and fast and the sushi chef was very friendly! We got the Nigiri Lovers omakase and it definitely did not disappoint. They served 12 pieces nigiris and each of them are unique and delicious! It's a combination of a traditional Japanese nigiri sushi and a fusion style nigiri and I love how they alternate each of them. It's definitely a great place to have your next date nights! They have both basic and premium omakase option, so based on what you're craving, they have options for all of that! Definitely worth to check out!

I made reservations for our group on Yelp 2 months prior to our trip for the Robata Jinya side. We were running late and I had called to let the restaurant know and found out that our reservation got lost or never went through. The hostess wasn't rude about it and immediately talked to the GM and they were able to accommodate and got us a table for 7. Food: good food for good prices. A good spot for those who love to eat sushi and non sushi eaters. The lychee martinis were good - they used fresh lychees vs. the canned lychees. I'd skip on the tofu adegashi, even though I enjoyed it - for the price, not worth it. Service: GM & hostess - Problem solvers. Waiter was attentive, always checking up on us. Food came out promptly, Ambiance: trendy, perfect spot for dinner before going out.

Such a fantastic experience! At bar Omakase experience with sushi chief Halo. She had the best energy, service, personality and omg the makes the yummy sushi melts in your mouth. Beautiful interior, great music, clean and friendly. Highly recommend:)

So happy we came here for my son's 21st 14Sep2024 Service and ambiance was amazing Food was amazing Our overall experience was superb!

An unforgettable omakase adventure at Robata Jinya in Honolulu! Every dish is a Masterpiece. From delicate sashimi to mouthwatering nigiri, this is sushi elevated to a whole new level. A true feast for all the senses! From the stunning presentation to the freshest ingredients, every dish was a sensory delight. The ambiance is a sexy modern, yet classic refined Japanese Izakaya. They create thperfect balance of taste, texture, and aroma made this an unforgettable sushi experience. If you're in Honolulu, treat yourself to this culinary Don't miss out on this exclusive culinary experience! One of the best Omakases I've ever had. Make sure you sit at the sushi counter and receive the best service from these dedicated chefs. No only will they prepare your sushi with masterful skill, they will also entertain you will serving your meal.

Came here on a Thursday before going to the movies. It wasn't too busy and we got seated right away. It was a nice quiet atmosphere. We were told that they have all day happy hour on Tuesdays and Thursdays so that's really cool! We ordered a handful of happy hour apps, meat and mushroom sticks and calamari. All of them came with a sauce, some of the dishes needed the sauce, kind of wish they gave like salts. They have some nice fun drinks and cocktails! We ordered a matcha lemonade with no mint because I wasn't super in the mood for mint in my drink. It was nice, a light matcha taste and not super bitter, not a super lemonade sourness either, depending if you like that or not, I'm okay without the pucker lol.

Dined here for the first time last month and was pleasantly awed. I came here with a girlfriend to enjoy happy hour and it didn't disappoint. Parking was a bit humbug as parking is a bit away from the restaurant. I chose to park across the street at the Ward Shopping Center parking garage. But it is what it is. Food was good. We made the mistake of ordering a few more salmon dishes and it was just ok for me. Nothing epic or standouts for me. Perhaps dessert? Ambiance wins and the service was good too! Our waiter checked in on us several times and cleared plates and filled glasses too. Comfy seating, adequate lighting and the noise level wasn't bad at all. Great happy hour place to catch up and drink a few.

This sushi restaurant serves fresh, expertly crafted dishes in a cozy and inviting atmosphere. A must-visit for sushi fans!

Amazing experience tasting some unique sushi! Impeccable service! Highly recommend!

Have only been here for happy hour (4p - 6p) and thought it was ok. We had a reservation and made sure to come here right at 4 to maximize our happy time. We started out as usual with a cocktail. Mark H's Lycheetini was neat with a smoke bubble on it. I had a whiskey drink, the Frozen spicy toki. The drinks were pretty good but not outstanding. Onto the food, we started out with some skewers (pork belly and tsukune) and some sushi (bluefin/salmon/kampachi nigiri and hosomaki roll.) These were also ok, pretty straightforward in taste and preparation. We also got an order of karaage, pretty good. It came out piping hot so we had to let it cool down for awhile. We each got a glass of Sapporo here. Next we got some non-happy hour items...Baked dynamite roll and more nigiri (salmon belly and unagi.) Unfortunately, because I'm allergic to shellfish I could have any of the Baked dynamite since it's scallops. Mark H said it was pretty good but because I couldnt have any, he ended up eating the whole roll which made him pretty full, he did mention it had too much sauce though. The nigiri was once again ok. The unagi was kind of inconsistent between the two pieces. One piece was grilled nicely with caramelized unagi sauce all over it but the other piece seemed like it had almost no sauce at all. A side note...because Mark H was full after the roll, he only had one salmon belly nigiri and I had the other three pieces. An order of Crispy rice with spicy tuna was next. This was pretty good. To me the rice was good but the spicy tuna was a bit lacking. I was actually still kind of hungry so ordered the Hot stone A5 with garlic rice. This was probably my favorite dish of the night. Pretty tasty with the raw egg yolk to break open over it...creamy rich fattiness oozing all over beefy rich fattiness. What's not to love? Overall, it was somewhere between ok and pretty good. The decor is nice, modern and chic but for some reason it felt out of place, kind of like an over americanized izakaya. The service was good, attentive but not overbearing. The food, it was pretty much ok with no real highlights other than the A5 bowl. Would I come back, maybe, but surely only for Happy Hour, the prices otherwise are a bit too high for the quality of the food.

Love their happy hr here! Food is great! Wagyu hot stone pot with rice and their chicken karaage is great! Wagyu gyoza and sushi rolls also amazing! Service is great too!

Had a wonderful experience when I came to Jinya. The server was very attentive. The food was great. The ambience was perfect. I couldn't ask for more. I can't wait to come!

Highly recommend Robata Jinya we alway had there ramen this time I came for our Anniversary and wife gave it 2 thumbs up 10 start rating everything we order was real good and not once I heard the wife disapprove something, our server gave us some good recommendations either the one she like and the others like she was helpful from the start and made sure we was good we had good seating in front of the sushi chefs and you can see how much craftsmen ship they put Into your roll or nagiri real concentrate and I like there team work nobody on that line only did one thing they did everything to help push the line. Very low lighting but up front of the sushi bar seating was very lit and was a good place for there omasake. The place is family welcome kid friendly and they take all payments from cash to card check them out intake the fusion in sushi and Japanese food also before I'm done writing this get the Waygu roll OMG that right there was bomb.com and I wouldn't mine paying a bit more if it was a bit more bigger cause it would sell and I would keep buying that for real for real visit Robata Jinya sushi Aloha

Did you hear that jinya has take out bentos?! its only available after 4pm tho! It ranges from about 35-70 depending on the box you choose. I chose the mid tier box for $43 and it didnt disappoint! It came with some nigiri, hand rolls, cut rolls, sashimi, hosomaki, and some edamame. I liked how there was also a small compartment for the utensils and napkins, and another compartment for all the sauces and garnishes. My only gripe is that i wished they served it with the fresh wasabi instead of the packet ones. The only other thing that bothered me was that there was a hair on one of my nigiri when i opened the box. It is probably best that you call in your order ahead of time so you don't have to wait around for it. Theres literally no parking there and you'd have to park across the street where the theaters are or maybe the 30 minute loading zones behind peso's and next to kid city.

This is one of new faves on the island! We came here because they have a omakase sushi menu. Initially we came and sat at a regular table and ordered sushi ala carte and our server had told us that we should try the sushi omakase the next time we visit and we did, we loved it so much. I believe when you do the sushi omakase it's only at the sushi bar, it's nice chatting with the sushi chefs and watching them work on your nigiri. Our faves were the smoke toro w/uni, nedoguro,unagi w/foie gras, toro w/shiso and many other pieces! If you sit at the sushi bar they do allow you to order more food if you feel like you want more, but the omakase was more than enough! We only ordered dessert after which was the sweet potato Mont Blanc which was not too sweet but so good! Next time we visit Oahu, we will definitely make a stop by here again! Total for 2: $220

Out of this world!!!! We were able to take advantage of their happy hour before dinner and their food and atmosphere was amazing! Highly recommend their happy hour- try their beef tongue pupu and oyster mushrooms and the mimosas. Every single thing we had was delicious. We ended up getting their prime beef tongue because their happy hour was a hit and it was amazing. So soft! The lamb was a lean cut with a part of the fat cap. It was tender and the sauce had a nice kick to it. Daniel our waiter was super attentive. He was constantly moving around but coming to check in and refilling our water was spot on. He made recommendations for dessert and told us to try the Strawberry Parfait! The Strawberry Parfait was delicious! Every new layer is like gold! Strawberries are huge and the cake is super soft. Would recommend!

Made a reservation for a Wednesday night at 6:00 right before Christmas. Wanted to spend an evening out with the family while they were all home for the Winter Break. Ambience is trendy and modern. Walk in and get greeted and seated. There are a variety of seating configurations ranging from booths, rounds, window views, and of course the bar. The restaurant was pretty packed on this night. A few families, but more couples dining out. This place has a great vibe for a date night out. Menu is eclectic with a range of options. Drink menu is also pretty extensive. We ordered a few appetizers and then more options to share family style. All and all the service was attentive considering they were very busy. We enjoyed the food and the company was great! Fair is fair come and check this place out if you are looking to have dinner with a special someone or looking to conduct a business meeting. Either way, it would be a great way to make a favorable impression.

Let's get the atmosphere out of the way: it's gorgeous inside. Upscale, sophisticated--a great date night place. But make sure that your date has your wallet's best interests at heart. Our server was keen on pointing out the priciest dishes, including premium omakase up to $190 and some premium Wagyu. We tried to find a balance of inexpensive items and then splurged on a little sushi, cocktails, and decent sake. Overall, it was very good, but our expectations were higher (the decor encourages that thinking). We thought, "Nice, but is it really worth all the higher prices on the menu?" Granted, we watched our dollars, but nothing jumped out as something we had to come back for. One problem: We ordered a second martini, and it was terribly watered down. The manager confided that they'd let a trainee make it (no one checked their work). They replaced it with a good one, but later found the garnished olives were MILDEWED! They comped the drink, but not sure the Manager believed us (even though he sniffed the garnish). My pro bartender brother confirmed that they can mildew when they're not rotated: they probably dumped a few fresh ones on top of the old ones. Ewwwwww...
