Yajima-ya - Honolulu

Finally made the time to visit this restaurant and I'm very pleased I did!The atmosphere was perfectly laid back, clean, pleasent staff/waitress and the food was perfectly satisfying!We will be back thats for sure!

Came here by foot on a Monday around 12pm. There were 5 of us we were seated right away. The drink they gave us wasn't water. I think it was some kind of tea. It was very refreshing though. The menus were huge lol! I ordered the rib eye steak with garlic. It was super tender juicy! It was kind of pricey for an ok portion but the quality was great. There was only 1 waitress so we were waiting a while for our check but she did her best and was very friendly. Their sashimi looked good, so I might be getting that on my next trip

The staff is fantastic and the food is consistently delicious. I especially enjoy the miso soup and steak with ponzu sauce.

I went to this restaurant with my coworkers for a Friday lunch treat at the end of the week. I decided to try the garlic ahi teishoku. It had a generous portion of ahi that was cooked and topped with fried garlic slices. While it wasn't a traditional Japanese dish, it was still delicious. The meal came with side vegetables, rice, and miso soup. It was a very fulfilling way to end a busy week, and I didn't want to go back to work after enjoying it.

This is a nice place to get simple, tasty Japanese food. It's kind of on the smaller side, but we got lucky and got seated right away (right before a large party stopped by! . The menu consists of mostly teishokus, and there's a good variety of dishes overall. I got the butterfish teishoku. Everything was delicious! The butterfish was marinated well and I liked the pickles that came on the side. I think the large tour group that came in after us got to order a special bento that wasn't on the normal menu. I was a bit jealous because it looked so good! I have to remember to ask next time if it's something that can be ordered ahead of time the next time I go. Service was fast and friendly. They have their own parking lot but it's a bit small.
