The best sushi I have had in Maui. This sushi is one of the top I’ve had anywhere. I’ve been to Japan before and this experience was better than my Tokyo sushi I had while traveling.

Hands down THE BEST Sushi! The Chef is amazing and the service team is as kind and welcoming as can be. We were lucky to get a last minute reservation for 2. Book early. Just plan on coming here and start calling weeks in advance. To the Chef, THANK YOU for sharing your story with my wife and I. And thank you for allowing us to share our story with you and how your sushi has kept us focused for 10 years to get back to Maui to enjoy it! lol

Our last day on me and my husband’s honeymoon and nothing suited it better than this amazing dinner at Koiso Sushi Bar. We were extremely lucky to get reservations last minute as they are usually booked weeks in advanced. From the moment we were seated to when we left it was nothing short of an amazing experience as well as what I would say the best sushi I have ever had. It was our first time trying chef’s choice “Omakase” and it is definitely the way to do it. The fish melts in your mouth and tastes extremely fresh. Each piece you can tell is made with attention to detail and care. If you can, make sure to make this a stop on your trip to Maui.

April 2023 – got an impalas e platter which was just wonderful! Best sushi ever, so thoughtful. I love uni and it was served with salmon eggs which was delectable. We are getting it a second time in a week. Spicy tuna and the salmon avocado rolls welders great too. The miso soup tastes great, unsure if it’s worth 7 for a tiny serving.

Every experience sushi experience at Koiso is amazing. Hiro is such a talented sushi chef all his creations are artful. Our multi generation Maui real estate team loves eating here together. It’s always the best place to bring family, friends and clients. We always order Hiro’s Omakase where he chooses the freshest fish for sushi and sashimi. Koiso is very poplar with locals and visitors. It’s highly recommended to make reservations WAY in advance, as there are no walk ins. Everyone is so friendly at Koiso and The SaylesTeam always feels at home.

Hiro is a true talent. His attention to detail and sophisticated preparation is unmatched. The fish is the most fresh. Omekase is a must. A wonderful experience.

Koiso was one of the highlights of my trip to Hawaii and was so good that I went twice during my stay! Keep in mind, it is RESERVATION ONLY, so call in advance to make sure you can go. The establishment only seats maybe 15-16 people at any one time, but it truly makes for a genuine and one-of-a-kind experience. Watching the owner make sushi right in front of you is quite hypnotic, and the quality of fish you’re getting is well worth the price. Really, really enjoyed this place!

Best meal on Maui. Maybe best sushi I’ve ever had. Super fresh. Everything is prepared with care. Excellent service. Called a day ahead and got a reservation due to a cancellation, which is lucky! Definitely worth calling to get in for this meal. We felt the prices were really reasonable for the quality.

As a chef, the sushi here was amazing. You could taste the cut on the fish in your mouth it was that good. The experience was wonderful the service was attentive and polite but the technique and the quality of the chef was at a world class level. I would suggest to bring two people and order the entire menu.

Update: December 2020, Corona virus in full swing. Koiso has been totally updated with every possible precaution, social distance, plexiglass dividers between diners and the chef, very clean and sanitized, masks required to enter and Hiro, the owner has changed some of the decor so there is less clutter.
