Nina Z.Nina Zhang: Amazing food married with terrific service (at the bar!). Truly a rare combination now a days. Fettuccine is as amazing as all tips note, in addition to the squid salad and cured salmon. Salmon shown.

Alexandra O.Alexandra Ostrow: To start, I highly recommend Kusshi and Kumamoto oysters, avocado king crab roll and Black Cod appetizer. Also, you'll never go wrong with omakase.

DailyCandyDailyCandy: The folks at Kanoyama are a head above the rest, with specials like hamachi carpaccio with yuzu juice and sea salt, sea conch sashimi, and Tasmanian ocean trout.

Elena V.Elena V.: Sit at the bar and ask for the 'super omakase' (not on the menu). Chef Nobu is wonderful so sit strategically to watch him prepare and discuss the sushi!

Hawaiian Restaurant · East Village · 77 tips and reviews

Noah W.Noah Weiss: One of the most interesting openings in the past year. Hawaiian fare from Per Se chefs with no entree over $22. Standouts: crusted fluke, big eye tuna poke, pork belly, pineapple bread pudding.

Lori L.Lori Luo: Modern Hawaiian cuisine as interpreted by two Per Se vets come to a helm at Noreetuh. Start with the excellent Poke and the Corned Beef Tongue Musubi, and make sure to try the Spicy Rice Cakes.

ReserveReserve: Noreetuh’s Big-Eye Tuna Poke — garnished with macadamia nuts, pickled jalapeños and seaweed — is the perfect balance of fresh and bold. Read more.
