We recently checked out the new Kizuna Steakhouse & Sushi, the second location of one of our favorite Japanese spots in Kaneohe. This new addition features a teppanyaki room, which was the main reason we wanted to give it a try.
We came on a Saturday evening just before 5 p.m. and were seated right away at a teppanyaki table—great timing! The boys shared a combo entrée with shrimp, filet mignon, and lobster. I ordered the steak, chicken, and shrimp combo, while my husband went with the shrimp entrée.
All meals came with miso soup, salad, rice, noodles, 2 pieces of shrimp, and mixed vegetables.
We opted to upgrade to the fried rice (just a few bucks more), and it’s totally worth it—definitely recommend.
Our chef arrived shortly after the appetizers were served. The teppanyaki show was reminiscent of Tanaka of Tokyo, though not quite as polished—understandable, as the chefs still seem to be finding their rhythm.
The food was solid, though not quite on par with Tanaka. Still, for the Windward side, where teppanyaki options are scarce, it’s a welcome (but pricey) addition.
While the teppanyaki experience didn’t wow us, we’re still big fans of Kizuna’s other offerings. Their sushi, appetizers, and teishoku meals continue to be the main draw for us.
All in all, it’s great to see Kizuna expanding and bringing more variety to the area.
Open daily for lunch and dinner.
