We enjoy coming here for sushi. Feels like a traditional due to the small space and decor. Fish is fresh and we never had a bad meal here. More

Great raw fish at a price. The small Sushi restaurant is in the heart of Waikiki and therefore you are paying for location in addition to the excellent quality raw fish that they serve. More

Bad customer service! They seated us but never asked us what we wanted to drink, when they asked other ppl who were seated after us! He server slammed the cups of water when she served us! Plus, they automatically charged 15% service fee when they give the bill, even though they didn't deserve the tip! More

Pretty standard sushi. Great view of Waikiki Beach out the front window. There is better sushi in Honolulu. Most people walk right by this place, but my wife and I have been coming here for years. More

The food is middle of the road sushi. This means that if Japan and Vancouver is a 10 and Los Angeles is a close 8 or 9 (because of so many Japanese expats), Furusato is a 5 or 6. this is based on price performance meaning that the pricing is as much as Nobu's in Beverly Hills but quality is...

This sushi place is right on the main strip of Waikiki beach. It is a little store and you could easily walk past it and not know. We went twice, 2 nights in a row. The first night we had the Dragon Roll special with nigiri. Wow, fantastic dragon tool, amazing nigiri. I also ordered some additional nigiri. They have... More

I really wanted to like this place. After days of eating mediocre burgers and seafood some delicious sushi sounded really good. We had walked by the night before and it was packed with Japanese customers, so we thought that was a good sign. They had toro on the menu, so we were really excited since we don't get that very...

So hungry after checking into the Hyatt today. Walked out the front door, and bumped right into Furusato. Although we were a bit reticent a first, we settled in after seeing more than a handful of Japanese tourists populating the few tables. And we were thrilled beyond measure after the first few bites. Small and simple: no waterfalls, no high-dollar... More
