Yakitori Hachibei

Live there steam clam and the Yakitori chicken wing. So delicious. Pork belly was a bit hard to chew. Fried chicken wings were too salty. The chicken ramen was okay. There were not many non alcoholic drinks so we just had ice water. Overall very good vibe of izakaya. Reminds me of Japan a ton. Decent Yakitori and not bad the price. Would probably go again if I’m in Honolulu.

My family and I had an excellent meal here last weekend. Call ahead and make reservations as it filled up quickly. Parking- there is a paid parking lot up the street at the corner of Pauahi + Bishop. $4/ hour, we were in and out of the restaurant in less than 2 hours. We had our meal at 5pm and were promptly seated. Restaurant has a no mask, no entry policy, but once the food arrived, no issue with having masks off for remainder of meal. We ordered the butabara (pork belly), momo (chicken thigh), sukiyaki (beef with veggies), A5 wagyu, and a few other yakitori skewers. We enjoyed them all! We especially liked the sukiyaki skewer. It is served with a raw egg yolk and was really delicious! The Yakitori chef was working hard and can be seen front and center of the restaurant preparing yakitori with great effort. Thank you chef! The owner of the restaurant and our server were friendly and explained what dishes entailed. Having been to the Yakitori Hachibei in Hakata, Fukuoka as well, this

Everything was nice. cream cheese tofu was epic, and the pudding was also a surprisingly delicious dessert!
