~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. This has allowed us to create a cozy atmosphere that wouldn’t have beenpossible in a more modern building.

The key to the perfect dining experience is fresh local ingredients, prepared by chefs dedicated to the art of cooking. 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

    There were lots of people today because of New Year Eve. This was my second time there, the sushi was always very fresh. Appetizers were delicious too. We loved fried tofu. Anyway we will definitely go there again next time.

    I usually love this place but I agree with another review I read here that the quality seems to have diminished. The menu is not as extensive and the food was good but not excellent like I remembered from past experiences.

    Great food! Fresh fish and quality options. The spicy salmon and spicy tuna rolls are some of the best we’ve had.

    Great sushi. We had spicy tuna and spicy salmon roll. Both were great, priced slightly high, but vacation is meant to be enjoyed. Spicy beef noodles were also great. Service was prompt and professional and friendly! Don’t miss this if you enjoy Japanese cuisine.
