“ An amazing option in the area. They serve high quality Japanese nabe. Some delicious premium cuts, fresh vegetables, and yummy noodles. Our table ordered a few different options of broth, sliced meats like wagyu and pork belly, and all sorts of mushrooms. The flavorful broths just bring the dish together. You've got plenty of options for all sorts of tastes like seafood and tofu. Another thing I want to shout out is their amazing yuzu iced tea. With pulp snd skin from the fruit you've got such a yummy and sweet tea to enjoy. Lastly, the staff is wonderful. So helpful and kind. We didn't have to wait long to be seated and we were always checked on. ”

“ We were looking for dinner around Ala Moana mall and saw a lot of hot pot/shabu options, but this one stood out because we don't typically see much nabe (very similar to shabu though!). I asked our server what was recommended in terms of broth and went with his personal favorite - the yuzu kosho. I was eyeing that one and am glad it was suggested because the flavor was spot-on! The yuzu aroma was there without being too overpowering. My fiancé went with the paitan ($4 surcharge) and he liked his broth as well. It went well with his kurobuta pork chanko set ($29.95). The vegetarian nabe ($27) was more than enough food for me. Not only does it come with an assortment of veggies, you also get a fat bowl of rice and a choice or udon or ramen. You can also getting dipping sauces (ponzu or goma) for $1 extra. The servers warn you up front when providing this option. I do wish it was already included in the price because the margins on these sauces must be insane. Genius for management, but annoying for the customer. Otherwise, service was nice and efficient. Seemed like all the staff were friendly to everyone. I also really appreciate how the suggested tips are on the pre-tax total, not post. ”

“ Food was pretty good. However not that much selection of food. I like how they are open on Christmas Day. Love thr service here, our waiter was really nice. ”

“ Pretty solid for what it is. The good: the nabe itself is great, the flavors are on-point, and you get a decent amount of food. The vibes are nice, I'm particularly a fan of the separate/covered booths. Lots of cool Japanese-style seating, too. The questionable: the price is a teensy bit high and the meat portions are okay but not great, leading me to slightly prefer other nabe places in the area. In fact, I kinda got the feeling that this place nickels-and-dimes you, which is weird considering that some other places in the area are all-you-can-eat. ”

“ Not bad sukiyaki/hot pot. It's a chain with the other location by Ala Moana in town. The ingredients come out to your table and you cook your food at your table. I like the sukiyaki broth and flavor. The meat quality is not bad. I've also tried the poke, which was not good. Do not recommend the poke here. Service is efficient. It can get pretty loud and crowded. ”

“ I'm all about the AYCE hotpot game, but sometimes will indulge in a la carte places because the quality is likely better. And this was definitely the case with Ichiriki. We stopped by around 6pm and had a short 15 min wait for a party of 2. My first thought was that it was freezing inside - the AC was blasting. But by the end of dinner it actually felt nice, so thanks for keeping us comfortable by the end. For my meal, I orders the Minamoto set at $48 which came with an appetizer platter, chicken karaage, chanko set and shave ice. I chose the choice ribeye set and paitan broth. We also ordered the pork kimchi. All the apps were very good! At first I thought the pork kimchi was lacking pork, but it was buried underneath all the kimchi. The app platter was good and included cold tofu, edamame, poke + the karaage. The only item we didn't like was the poke - very offputting taste. The actual chanko set was also good. Even though the amount of ribeye was minimal (again, I'm more team AYCE), I left sufficiently full with all the apps and other shabu accompaniments. Now what I LOVED was the paitan broth. It was SO incredibly flavorful. I asked for a refill nearing the end ans also asked for to go containers so I could take home the left over broth and cook up so yummy ramen the next day. The ending green tea shave ice was also refreshing and delicious. Our server was friendly and checked in with us often. Parking is easy. Will definitely be coming back and getting that paitan broth again! ”

“ Haven't been to Ichiriki for a while and felt like eating hot pot so my friend & I decided to go for Happy Hour. I made a reservation for 8pm and surprisingly they were pretty crowded even at that time. We both got their melon soju drink that was strong but good. For pupus we got the cucumbers & calamari. The cucumbers were simple with salt, chili peppers, & sesame but tasted sooo good. I need to try making that at home. I ordered the happy hour nabe set & got a side of fish cake. And I got the pirikara broth. Everything was so tasty and hit the spot! After we were done eating, we talked about how good everything was especially because we hadn't been there for so long. I usually like to try new places and not go to the same ones over and over, but I wouldn't mind coming back again soon! ”

“ The best shabu shabu happy hour in Aiea, they have a early happy hour and a late night happy hour. You get a little bit of everything in their nabe sets, meat, fish, veggies and noodles. We also got the spicy ahi and karaage chicken which was great. Our server was very attentive and brought out our appetizers with our nabe set shortly after, it was enough for two people to share. It's a perfect spot for a casual date night or a night with friends, they have a good assortment of japanese beers and shochu as well. ”
