Restaurants in Kane'ohe

Behind Tokoname's dark-wood storefront and rustic carved sign, chefs craft of authentic Japanese fare by the light of hanging lanterns. Sushi standards such as ahi tuna nigiri and shrimp tempura share table space with more exotic seasonal items, including abalone and monkfish liver. Patrons can also opt to wash down meals with a round of sake cocktails or a beer tower for the table. During lunches at the Manoa location, chefs also drizzle juicy burgers in soy-sauce-based Wafu dressing and homemade teriyaki sauce, as well as constructing traditional bento boxes.

Soft lights hang down from Tsukiji Fish Market and Restaurant’s towering ceiling, illuminating the plates of traditional dishes from Japan, China, and Korea that have enticed the tongues of reporters from Food & Wine. Throughout the week, a buffet sweeps across the dining room and simmers with soups and specialties as chefs stand by to prepare sushi and noodles upon request. By day, the chic, WiFi-saturated dining room hosts up to 400 diners, and the evening offers Tsukiji Lounge, which boasts a menu of appetizers complemented by pours from the full bar. Come Friday night, the 14,000-square-foot room transforms into a nightclub, where guests can prance across the dance floor like clydesdales at Horse Prom amidst the vibrant melodies of DJ Paul Brandon.

At Tropical Tribe, health meets flavor in bowls and shakes that combine fruits and herbs harvested from around the world. Açai bowls blend the popular superfruit with guarana imported from the Amazon rainforest. Shakes made with cool Yerba Mate tea quell thirst using a nutritious herb from the Atlantic rain forest, not to be confused with the Atlantis rainforest, which is made of actual rain.:m]]

Tucked away in the Waikiki Landmark building, Little India Restaurant is stone's throw away from the Pacific Ocean, and its windows provide views of swaying palms and luxurious high rises. Inside, paintings of the jungle and mint green walls surround diners digging into what the chefs call 'North Indian fusion cuisine,' which allows grilled chicken and tender pork cutlet to be served with or without traditional Indian sauces such as coconut curry and tikka masala. While waiting on a tandoori salmon fillet to bake to a flaky pink, patrons can return the stares of the dining room's totem pole creatures of fanged beasts and fire-eyed animals.

The chefs at Chi-Town Deep Dish Pizza Co. fill the club they're housed inside, the Soho Mixed Media Bar, with the mouthwatering aroma of deep-dish pizza. When they’re not adorning thick pizzas with heaps of toppings, they stack fresh ingredients between bread to create italian-sausage sandwiches and open-faced pizza sandwiches. Guests can choose to enjoy their domestic beers and Chicago-style hot dogs served in the casual pizzeria or found skittering across the DJ’s turntables in the club.
