   The food order was taken and the food was at the table in 5 minutes. We ordered tea but never came to offer a refill. The overall meal was just ok. The miso butter fish was breaded not what I am expecting. It was satisfactory. I probably would not return.

   Ashamed to say, in >25 years we lived on Oahu, we never visited Kuni’s. Now, when we come back to visit family, it is our favorite local style Japanese restaurant. Excellent value, very casual and good food!

   I thought that the food was on point. It reminded me of the Kunis of old. The dressings and sauces which make the Kuni vibes were taking me back to a different era when the times were simple and solid and we took establishments like this for granted.

   From start to finish, making the reservation to paying and leaving the restaurant, service was excellent, the food was exceptional as always and the vibe inside was like eating at home. Relaxed, friendly and not rushed. So glad went for dinner to celebrate a sister’s birthday!

   Service was awesome! Food was even better! Everything was prepared to order and quantity/quality of food was on point for the price you pay!

   So glad Sato is there. It has gotten expensive since the owner change but having him there makes all the difference. Serving staff were excellent!

   We come here often. The service was super slow this time and the old man who is so fun and funny wasnt there this time. We got our food all at once so we couldnt finish our soup and salad. The ordering of the food took the longest because no one came to ask if we were ready. Also… they never checked on us if we needed another refill or anything. Kinda disappointed because I talk this place up. Probably the worst experience so far. The food was great though.

   We had sashimi, shrimp tempura, & chicken katsu which were all good. The Bar Style sizzling steak was terrible. Had better at Denny’s before lol. No seasoning or flavor and super tough. We ordered it med rare came out well done. Service was robotic. Definitely missed Sato-San on his day off :(

   My Ohana and I had dinner to celebrate a birthday and it was great! Reservation was easy to do and when I needed to change the time, they had no issue doing so. Service was great, everyone worked together to serve the people. Food was delicious and to me the price was greatly reasonable. Food came out at a timely matter and the manager who I did not get his name, was really great! He came out to check on everyone, bussing tables, refreshing water/beverages and making us smile and laugh. He showed us his cool trick with flipping out drink without spilling it! That was cool. Mahalo nui!

    Great food and didn’t expect this kind good food around the area. Ribeye bar style was good but need to put little soy sauce to make it more tender.
