Yanagi Sushi Awards

Yanagi Sushi Restaurant Review:

Located in the Ala Moana area, Yanagi attracts sushi lovers from points near and far. Your best bet for getting a table or spot at one of the sushi counters is to have a reservation. If you don't, get there right when they open for either lunch or dinner and you might get lucky. While the sushi is the best reason to come here, the menu of Japanese favorites is extensive --- good for sushi lovers who might be dining with non-sushi lovers. For the hungry, the generous combination lunches and dinners are a good choice. Our preference would be to sit at one of the large sushi bars, ask the chef what's good and enjoy. Do not miss the scallops with flying fish eggs and the spicy chopped tuna. Order a beer (if you want decent wine here, you should bring it with you). The service is attentive, and the prices, for a sushi bar, reasonable.
