    Saw an instagram advertisement of three levels of AYCE. Top tier was $89. Decided to visit for lunch for my husbands birthday. Top level AYCE at lunch was $139, which is crazy! Food was just okay. Can only order two items per person until your food comes out. Sushi Tower was pretty good. But portions make no sense. Ordered bulgogi fries appetizer and it came out as a full size plate. Ordered Miso Salmon thinking it was a side dish. Nope it was a full size lunch plate. Have to finish all your rice or they can charge you $10 more for food wastage. You can tell they just want to fill you up on carbs so you don’t order the expensive items. Was completely disappointed.

    This was a “Horrible” dining experience. The “manager/waiter” pushes us towards the all you can eat, rather than the Ala Carte menu. Despite not being too hungry, we agree. He then suggested we start off with 2 sushi rolls each and an order of Korean wings. The food was just okay, nothing special, as were the drinks. When he returns for our next order we say that we’re full, can’t even finish what we have, only ordered once. He then tells us we have to pay an extra $10 per person for not finishing what was ordered. The bill was $169.00. I told him that’s crazy, awful service, and simply wasn’t good enough to finish. He offered nothing, it was embarrassing to be told at our dinner we were being penalized like that. Finally removed the $$20 “not finishing your plate fee”. I can understand if someone orders too much and is gluttonous. However, we had 2 rolls and never reordered. Our entire Hawaii vacation has been over the top amazing and we over tipped everyone we encountered 25-35%, from the bell hops, valets, waiters, waitresses, bartenders, beach accommodations and more. The people of Hawaii are truly amazing, spreading “Aloha” spirit everywhere, everyday. My wife and I were both in the service industry (bartender & waitress) prior to now being in the healthcare industry, so we just get it.

    The ambulance over Lewers Street in downtown Waikiki is memorable. The food was delicious the prices reasonable and the service was outstanding. I highly recommend bluefish for anybody for sushi and Japanese food.

    They had unique and tasty rolls. Happy hour is definitely the time to come if you are hungry earlier. Overall, good sushi. Wouldn’t hesitate to eat there again.

    The service was alright, our waters were refilled twice over the 90 minutes we were there. But there was always one person that didn't get refilled because there wasn't enough water for everyone, the waitress said they would come back but they did not. Our food took long and the bill took even longer.

    The food was great, totally worth the price. I just think the service could be faster especially since they only allow you to order a small amount per person for the AYCE. They should invest in those tablets at each table to order from so the server doesn’t need to repeatedly take our orders for more food. Our server was excellent, it started to get busy, but he always checked in. I just think we could’ve ordered a few more plates if it didn’t take so long to come in between each order.

    All you can eat "buffet" but served 2 dishes at a time to cut down waste is actually a good idea. unfortunately the wait in between dishes was long even though the restaurant was 50% empty at the time. The pupus came hot to the table . Sushi rolls and Nigiri was good . Service was good but the waiter forgot one of my orders and I had to wait even longer. Prices are in tiers which is great idea with higher priced items costing more with each ascending tier.
