Sekiya’s Restaurant & Delicatessen has been sharing its ohana values with Hawaii since 1935. The business first was located on School Street, where twin sisters Taisuke and Katsuko Sekiya opened School Delicatessen to sell various okazu (Japanese-style deli fare), shave ice and ice cream. Fast-forward 81 years and the family’s legacy lives on at Sekiya’s Restaurant & Delicatessen.
The current eatery has been located on Kaimuki Avenue since 1955 and proudly serves a variety of Japanese dishes with a local twist. Its saimin and udon noodles are served with a homemade dashi soup, and its Beef Teriyaki and Nitsuke Butterfish are just a few dishes loved by many.
Not only known for its good food, guests immediately can feel the friendly spirit emanating from Sekiya’s — with its open and casual-style dining room, outstanding customer service and large windows that offer a view of a koi pond.
Currently, Sekiya’s senior discount offers 10 percent off the bill on Mondays for dine-in patrons.
