Sura Hawaii

Delicious food, fun experience. Great service. Prices are $30+ per person.

I’ve actually been to Sura Hawaii, and I have to say, if you’re a true yakiniku fan, you’ll love it. I used to think all-you-can-eat spots meant lower quality, but here I was honestly surprised by how tender and flavorful the meat was. The MSG-free dishes left me feeling satisfied but not heavy, and you can really sense the care put into each dish. Plus, they’ve got a table order system now—so I didn’t have to wait for a server; I just ordered, and the food came out fast, no awkwardness. The price was great for the quality, and the only hiccup was parking—so I’d recommend valet. Honestly,

Great KBBQ experience! My first time here for lunch hour (~1pm). It wasn’t busy, we got seated immediately. Shoutout to our server who asked if we had our student ID (10% off for UHM students with valid ID!), she wanted to remember to give us discount! My friend and i definitely ate our money’s worth, the lunch special is worth the price! Everything was very clean and vibes were great. Also they have a call button system so no need wait long for them to get their attention—FIRE experience.

It’s been awhile since I last visited Sura. The side bar was a new addition. They have different options as far as sides, edamame, pickled onion, kimchi. Different sauces to choose from, the go to salt, pepper & oil combination. The kimchi was on the sour side. It gets pretty crowded & it’s more on the unsanitary side since everyone is using the same food utensils, sticking their hands in the same tub etc. To add on, you can hardly see what you’re grabbing or whether or not it looks good because the lighting is so dim. That’s the main reason for the 3 stars. I enjoyed the experience better before the side bar was a thing. Our waiter didn’t provide us with plates or chopsticks until after we finished cooking the first round of foods. We were patient about it, since it was busy. Food came out in a timely manner. Thinly sliced pork belly, the beef brisket and garlic shrimp bibimbap is always a winner. It’s best to make a reservation online prior to heading down there…otherwise you’re looking at 1-1.5 hour wait.

I love Suras I’m a regular but I’ve went recently and it wasn’t the same cause I usually go for the kimchi tofu soup and the recipe was changed. Please change it back. The ordering online at table was nice experience. The salad bar was nice also yum.

This place needs a definite change in quality. The bulgogi, marinated meats are being marinated too long, and probably not being stored correctly. All side dishes taste strange. The self serve sauce and salad is iffy. A place thats supposed to be Korean had no Korean people working or eating in it. Took a quick look into the kitchen and it looked chaotic. Place should be checked by DOH for violations. Quality and cleanliness needs to be better. The only good thing, staff was good.

Food are great. However, waiters and the front desk people seem like they hated the customers. do not feel welcome here. I’m paying for the food and tips and got treated like they did me a favor for letting me in and bringing me food. hopefully yall could train yall staff better updates- my wife and i gave it another chance and came back. the service is definitely getting better. we’ll come back in the future for sure.
