Reviews for KANPAI - Sushi, Noodle, & Sake Bar in Hilo, HI

Good miso soup. Had kanpai roll which had a bit too much bacon for me and also quite salty. Also had honolii roll which was... good. Tried their sake margarita which I enjoyed. Service was great, staff very friendly. Read more

The temaki with salmon and cream cheese is delicious. I had two of them with a large bowl of miso soup. The servers are very... friendly and helpful. It's a busy place, so make sure you get there early if you want to find a seat! Read more

Open late - accommodating staff. They offered us recommendations from the menu without being overbearing. It was not the best... Japanese food I have ever tasted, but certainly worthy of 4 stars, with a well-rounded selection and some unique tastes. Weordered 2 kinds of ramen and a "mermaid " roll. Read more

We went to this restaurant as part of our honeymoon. Both my husband and I love sushi and fresh fish but cant get it where we... live. I really enjoyed our dinner here. I got a tempura shrimp roll, spicy ahi poke bowl, and my husband got two other rolls.All were very delicious, my only complaint was that the half of my roll that I had saved for lunch the next day had becomeinedible over night. I kept it in the fridge in a closed container but by the next morning the rice had become hard and driedout and the fish smelled a bit. So, if you choose to eat here, make sure you eat everything you order that night. Read more
