KURU KURU SUSHI

KURU KURU SUSHI

KAHALA MALL

HONOLULU, HAWAII 

It is rare that I eat sushi twice in one week.  After my daughter saw that I had sushi for lunch, she wanted to have some too.  I had heard that the new Conveyor Belt Sushi restaurant in Kahala Mall was really good by two people recently.  We ended up going there for lunch.  There was a line waiting when we arrived.  They take your name and ask you to wait outside in the mall.  When there is room at the counter someone comes out and calls your name.  The staff is very young and energetic.  We were seated and served ice water and hot tea immediately.  Then it is just a matter of picking off the plates as they slowly come by on the conveyor belt.  Pricing is based on the color of the plate.  We had a few Yellow Plates ($1.45), Green Plates ($2.10), Red Plates ($2.75) and one White Plate ($4.75).  These are good prices for sushi in a mall.  The Ahi Tuna is $2.75 for two pieces.  Pricing aside,  the sushi here to me was just o.k.  I keep thinking about the crab and corn sushi that was overloaded with mayo.  The Lobster Balls were imitation lobster that tasted like sugar.  Could not eat this thing.  The winners of the day were the Ahi Tuna and Udon Noodle soup.  I would go to other conveyor belt places over Kuru Kuru.  Not a bad dining deal though.  $30 for two.
