The Hale ‘Aina Awards 2020 Gold winner for Best Sushi and finalist for Best Overall Japanese, Yanagi Sushi’s casual atmosphere and auction-fresh fish have kept their many regulars (me included!) coming back over the years. The restaurant is currently open for dine-in and takeout and is offering a menu of specially priced items for takeout for a limited time. One of the most popular times to dine at Yanagi is between 9 p.m. and midnight, when it offers late-night specials on a huge selection of appetizers, plus rolled sushi, combination meals and drinks.
