Gyotaku Japanese Restaurant - King Street - Japanese restaurant in Honolulu - 1824 S King St, USA

I was very impressed with Gyotaku. To start, the salad was a really delicious surprise with a much appreciated imitation crab piece. For the entree, the steak was perfectly seasoned, tender, and juicy. It came with tempura as a combo, which was a fantastic contrast for the meal. I'd definitely go back for their steak.

We ordered the Holiday Bento and was disappointed. The servers are nice and attentive, but make sure to double check on serving plates when put on the table, both of our serving plates are dirty. Food review as below: .Tempura came out room temperature, not the crunchiness still there but you can tell it been sitting after deep fried. 4/10 .Butter Fish taste delicious and hot, a bit burned on the skin but thats how i liked it. Few bones here and there but not a problem! 9/10 .Boneless Galbi were chewy, taste normal, flavor isnt there for a high rating restaurant…and they are barely warm. Why cant they serve hot food when they are supposed to? 2/10 .4 pc. Sushi rolls are ok, nothing g special, could get something similar out of grocery store. 3/10 .Salad was fine, a bit sour on the dressing 5/10 For $40 Holiday Special Bento, i do expect something a lot better, again very disappointed experiences Hope the management see this review. Should have an expeditor who double check on the food quality before goes out of the kitchen

So...one of my Bff's Mom took us here💜 It was my first time & I ordered a Ginger Iced Tea and was pleasantly surprised with a little cup with real ginger juice to put into my tea, as much as I wanted 🤙🏾 I also ordered the 3-choice bento. I got the Sashimi, Misoyaki Butterfish and Salmon and... OMG, they were SO fresh and literally MELTED in my mouth 😋 The waiter was attentive and the atmosphere was cozy... I would DEFINITELY recommend this place 💯😋

Thank You So Much And Keep Up The Amazing Job And God Bless You ALL Always And ALOHA!!! 🙂🤙🌟✝️😇🙏

Good food and a place to get together, parking was easy and a fair amount of spots were available on a Saturday night. We didn't wait long, the only thing that we took long is because the menu is extensive and hard to make a choice quickly.i ordered two appetizer plates and a senior meal. Why not! The food is consistent with the Niu Valley store and service was on point. We enjoyed the meal and will return.

It was my husband’s birthday on Christmas Eve. First time eating here and would come back again, good service and yummy food, butterfish/tempura, Rib eye, karaage chicken, miso soup…Okinawan sweet potato pie. All we ate are delicious. We like that there’s social distancing too.

So delicious and the service is incredible! Very attentive and everybody enjoyed their meal. The tonkatsu curry is a teeny bit spicy in case you don't like spice at all. I don't know how they prepare the tonkatsu, but it was exceptional. It can be a bit pricey, but they have lunch and senior specials that are reasonable; plus an early bird dinner special too. The quality of the food out weighs the cost. Worth it. I highly recommend this place to anyone.

Great Japanese food fit for Hawaii's population. Good service and large portions of food. The kids loved the sashimi and sushi and I enjoyed tonkatsu curry! Left very satisfied with taste and quality of food.
