~AUTHENTIC JAPANESE CUISINE INSPIRED BY HAWAII'S FRESH & LOCAL INGREDIENTS~We created ZIGU in order to share our passion for fine cuisine with the people of Hawaii. We have been fortunate to acquire the perfect building for our restaurant. The restaurant was once a wooden low-riseApartment building which was constructed in 1939.

Here at ZIGU, you will enjoy dishes such as juicy Japanese omelettes made with fresh local eggs, sushi made from freshly caught fish.We also have SAKE and Shochu varieties that perfectly complement these dishes.~Important notice for our OHANA ~We are asking customers to limit their dining experience to 2 hours when we have high volume booking.Thank you for your understanding.＊Happy hour exclusionday: 12/23/2024~1/1/2025

We ordered the bruschetta but realized later that you got yummy bread for free so I wouldn't recommend that we then shared the wedge salad which was a little small for the price but very good and then we shared the ribeye which was absolutely amazing. Oh, and a baked potato baked potato was really yummy. Add garlic butter all over it.
