    We had a wonderful experience at Tonkatsu Kuro. Amazing food: tonkatsu was done perfectly, perfect crust, soft and delicate. The soba noodles were slightly softer than I like (I like al dente) but was still flavorful. The service was good and plenty of wait staff checking in on us. 10/10

    Excellent experience! Each course is very well thought out. The noise isn’t too bad even though it’s a bit of a speakeasy inside a Mexican restaurant that turns into a club. Would love to go back!

    We had our first conveyor belt sushi experience in Honolulu, and it was absolutely amazing! The fish quality was superb—fresh, flavorful, and melt-in-your-mouth good. The fun, interactive dining style made it even more special for a mother-daughter outing. Watching the plates glide by and picking our favorites added to the excitement. The service was great, and the atmosphere was welcoming. It turned a simple meal into a memorable experience. Highly recommend for anyone looking to try something unique and delicious in Honolulu!
