Doraku Sushi Honolulu (Kaka'ako)

10/23/2015

Doraku Sushi Restaurant Oahu  (Honolulu)
It's getting near dinner-time yet still too early to eat a full meal.  What to do?   Grab a few of your friends and head down to Doraku Sushi in Honolulu.   The atmosphere is casual (with option for indoor or outdoor seating), and an early Happy Hour menu from 4-6p.   Or, if you eat late, opt for the late Happy Hour (from 9p-closing; but be warn during late HH, the restaurant is packed!).  

​I will let the food speak for itself (as this doesn't even begin to scratch the surface on their large menu):

After visiting several times throughout the last few years, I have to say their staff is always very friendly and the food has always been pretty consistent.

[PROS]
  • Near Ala Moana and yummy food! 
  • Good daily Happy Hour selections (twice a day); excellent value!
  • Vast array of menu choices.  Option to order Ala Carte, Omakase, Sashimi Sets. 
  • Always friendly and nice service.
  • Option for outside or inside seating.
  • On-line reservations available. 

[CONS]
  • Parking is not really convenient  (Valet- $3 | Free street parking after 6p and on Sundays all-day but in a small, limited area).  Though if you prefer more convenient access, visit the Waikiki branch instead (inside the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center).
  • If you are a big eater, you will need to order a lot to get full.
  • Atmosphere can be a bit loud when the restaurant is packed.

I highly recommend a visit!
