Mitsuba Delicatessen: Your Premier Japanese Deli Experience in Honolulu

Great food! Went early to try the sweet potato crumble and it was pretty good! Love the fried rice and garlic chicken too!

Open early mornings (2am) when you need a good meal other than fast food in Kalihi and youre working the early shift Been around forever, limited parking in front but service is fast so youre in and out. Known for their sweet potato fritters and okazu, I usually get a dozen fritters for the work crew and a bento for myself. Always gotta get side order of the cone sushi too 5 stars.

We've been going here since I was a little mulito boi. Great place for okazu food go check them out prices are reasonable and food iz on...mind u da breakfast is winnahz..us paintahz always hungry...

Mitsuba Delicatessen is a true hidden gem in Honolulu that has captured my heart and taste buds! From the moment I walked in, I felt the warmth and hospitality that only a family-run business can offer. The staff is incredibly friendly, always ready with a smile and a helpful recommendation. The food here is absolutely amazing. Every dish is prepared with such care and precision, making each bite a delightful experience. The variety of offerings ensures that there's something for everyone. Their bento boxes are packed with flavor, freshness, and generous portions. I particularly love the mochiko chicken and the spam musubi – they are simply out of this world! The prices are very reasonable for the quality and quantity of food you get. It's the perfect spot for a quick lunch, a family meal, or even catering for special occasions. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, making it a great place to relax and enjoy a meal. Overall, Mitsuba Delicatessen delivers on all fronts – exceptional food, friendly service, and great value. If you’re in Honolulu and craving some delicious local delicacies, this is the place to go. Highly recommended!

Cookies are the bomb. Crispy and light, lots of flavor!

I stopped by while passing and it was about 9:20 am and it was already too late. They recommended I would need to come before 8 am to get the full menu. Nevertheless, I decided to get their chowfun and boiled hotdog and grilled hotdog and fried chicken. The hotdogs were acceptable and the chowfun was very tasty and the fried chicken was okay. The cashier was very nice so I would give them a 5 star. I will definitely have to try and stop by before 8 am next time.

Cannot go wrong!! Make a full plate and don't forget the crispy cookies!!!

One of the only places open early (before 5am) to grab food.
