About this restaurant

  • Healthy
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Lively
Here at ZIGU, we believe the key to running a successful restaurant is to serve fresh local ingredients. We cook in a Japanese style using only ingredients found here in Hawaii. We will soon be opening our doors to customers. You'll enjoy authentic Japanese cooking and sake either inside our cozy interior or outside our spacious courtyard terrace.

~Important notice for our OHANA ~
We are asking customers to limit their dining experience to 2 hours when we have high volume booking.
*Happy hour exclusionday: 12/23/2024~1/1/2025

Thank you for your understanding.

    Our meal and the service were both exceptional - we will absolutely be dining at Zigu whenever we’re in town in the future.

    先週、今週の水曜日に2回目行って来ました。水曜日は日本酒20%offという事でとても嬉しかったです。いつも接客も楽しく、気配りも良くとても楽しい時間を毎回過ごせました。夫はハワイに来て1番のお気に入りのお店と言ってます。 昨夜は虫の多い席でグラスにも入ったりしてちょっと気になったけど、また来週行けたらいいなと思ってます。

    Horrible service, great food. The waiter said he could make one of the rolls gluten free for my wife. It came, and after we both ate a roll, we noticed there were tempura bits sprinkled on top. After waiting for another 15 minutes until the server came back to check on us, we asked if the tempura was gluten free to which he responded it wasn’t. We asked for them to remake it without tempura, this request was refused and he said “they would not remake it for free and this is why I said I didn’t want to give you food off the non-gluten free menu” (this was never said to us originally). After saying I wasn’t going to pay for something we couldn’t eat, he proceeded to say that he would pay for it and kept repeating it to make us feel bad and had a horrible attitude. We asked for the bill immediately and left. The roll was taken off the bill and a 10% discount was given, but we still tipped the cost of the roll since he made a huge deal about him paying. We had dinner at a food truck close by after this debacle and it was a much better experience.

    奥の部屋で景色はあまり良くなく、お部屋が寒くて冷房の温度を上げてもらって少し良くなりました。お料理はどれもとても美味しかったです。アヒカツが最高❣️だし巻き卵も枝豆もまぜそばもスシロールも最高でした❣️飲み物が巨大なグラスで出てきてびっくりしました‼️楽しかったです。 店員さんも笑顔が最高でした。ありがとうございました😊

    The quality of the fish was extremely poor , and the tempura had nothing to do with the e light and crunchy Japanese tempura.

    This is one of my Go-to places….they had special water cress dishes (short season) which were killer. The group I took was heavily vegetarian, so there are always options. I just like the vibe of the patio, kinda hip, kinda funky, not precious. The food is dependable, the service is always great, and David was in top form last night.

    Really great experience and food for a birthday. We were seated close to the door which was nice for airflow but we didn't get to see much of the restaurant or environment. Highly recommended if your budget is bigger or a special occasion. We'll certainly be back.

    We were expecting a lot more since the restaurante has 5 stars on open table. My sashime came with pieces of skin and bone. Inaceptable.
