Great quality food and service, especially for the price! Found street parking bc I wasn’t sure if they validate-but they do! So park in the building. Like a speakeasy, it is located down a hall in the restaurant, Buho Cocina y Cantina. The dim 8 seat counter was intimate and the chefs very welcoming.

Wanting to try something unique and different, we stumbled upon Fukurou. This is where we made our first mistake. Enjoying different omakase experiences from all over the world, we are definitely used to the traditional omakase experience. The Chefs both did an okay job explaining each dish. Definitely seemed extremely green and nervous. The dishes were absolutely terrible. We were extremely saddened by this, as we have seen and heard great reviews, but we definitely came to learn that these notions were very biased. A few of the chef’s friends were there, and friends seemed to be a majority of who supports this business. Some of the flavor combinations were so terrible, that they were hard to even stomach. Surprisingly, the king salmon was the best bite. The chefs joked that their location often gets mistaken for a bathroom, and we could definitely see why. Instead of being quaint and classy, the room looked more like a depressing office space with just an owl picture on the wall. They also did not pickle their own ginger, which is a common practice. They just said it was “locally sourced.” It was terrible. The bite we looked forward to the most was “the gift,” and it was a complete flavor let down. The green tea churro in the dessert course was extremely overdone. We are sad to say that Fukurou was a huge miss for us. Japanese and Mexican flavors are very tough to mix, and they definitely did not do these two cuisines justice in any form. None of the flavor combinations were properly executed.

Not really into fusion cuisine but this was amazing. I appreciate the experimentation and artistic delivery and taste profile combinations. A few pieces that stood out, see below.

Very creative dishes and the chef knows how to combine the regular ingredients together to make it taste good. I wish you guys had fresh wasabi though

I’m a jaded judge of Japanese cuisine, having lived in Japan for over 30 years. When my wife made a reservation at Fukurou and told me it was a Mexican/Japanese fusion sushi experience I was doubtful.

Fresh take on Omakase featuring a wide range of flavors and textures. Thoughtful Mexican fusion lends surprising dimension to traditional Japanese fare. Playful presentation breathes life into this 14 course experience – each dish is as intricate as it is fun. Intimate dining experience with two incredibly talented chefs. Simply excellent from start to finish.

Had an excellent omakase here on our last night in Oahu, really ended it on a high note. The restaurant is Mexican/Japanese fusion, some of the reviews mention not liking that but I thought it was very well executed. There wasn’t a single dish that I didn’t enjoy. Give it a try!

A kind of secret place. Only 12? counter seats in a small room. 5:30pm or 7:45pm starts only.

Incredible blend of Mexican & Japanese omakase. You get fusion dishes like Okra & Octopus, and Matcha Churros, as well as more traditional Japanese hand rolls and nigiri.
