We had an excellent time here! The service and food were all excellent. I personally had the Spicy Salmon Roll and it was delicious. I ordered a Spicy Tuna Roll and it took a little over 30 minutes to come out, but the host was nice enough to still serve it and take it off the bill for us, which I really appreciated. We also had two birthdays which were well accommodated for, which was fantastic. We would definitely come back if given the chance!

Great restaurant tucked away from the bustling streets of Waikiki. We came here for happy hour and we were not disappointed. Great array of food and drink specials. $5 drafts say no more. We ordered mochiko chicken and fried octopus balls to start and Sumida farm watercress and aloha tofu salad with Zigu roll for a lighter finish. What I love is that the food came quickly and was HOT! our server was so attentive we didn’t have to ask anyone for more water or anything. We were totally taken care of. This is how service should be!

Wow! This isn’t your typical Japanese sushi restaurant by any stretch. If you’re in Waikiki, do yourself a favor and don’t miss ZIGU. Delicious, authentic, original offerings. The service (David P.) was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. And the pricing is reasonable for the fresh and local provisions on the menu. The mochiko fried chicken is NOT to be missed, and the complementary tea at the conclusion of the meal was a nice touch.
