Kyung’s Seafood in Honolulu is hands down the tastiest spot I’ve tried on the island. The sashimi platter? Best I’ve ever had. Pair that with Hawaiian BBQ chicken, kalbi ribs, and bulgogi, and you’re in for a flavor-packed meal. This is real local food done right. 🌺🍴 #HonoluluEats #HawaiiFood #KyungsSeafood #BestSashimi #HawaiianBBQ #KalbiRibs #Bulgogi #EatLocal #Honolulu #OahuEats #HawaiiEats #SeafoodLover #Foodie #TikTokFood #TikTokEats #TastyFood #Hawaii #HawaiianFood #HonoluluRestaurants #HawaiiLiving #OahuLife #BestOfHawaii #FoodiesOfTikTok #HonoluluHawaii #FoodGoals #DeliciousEats #LocalFood #FoodReel #SeafoodHeaven #HawaiiVibes #FoodTok #EatHawaii #Grindz #TravelFood #TikTokHawaii #FoodLovers #HawaiiVibes #EatHonolulu #TikTokEats #yumyumyumhawaii

I don’t even know where to start.. After a long day with the kids, we decided to go out for a night bite and some drinks. After finding Kyung’s Seafood on Yelp and Google with almost 5 stars we decided to give it a try. First look at the restaurant we were little skeptical since everything is a little outdated. But as the saying goes, “don’t judge a book by its cover” We got the sashimi platter for $30 and it’s was so so fresh. The cuts were super thick and I can’t believe they give you 27 pieces. Great value! One of my favorites was the Spicy garlic chicken gizzards. I’ve eating plenty of gizzards but nothing comes close to Kyungs. Perfectly cooked with an abundance of flavor and not over cooked. The Meat Jun was everyone’s favorite. I don’t recall even having anything close to Kyungs meat Jun. Most places either use cheap meat or over cook theirs. This one just melts in your mouth. The staff and Auntie Kyung was wonderful. She gave us a sample of her delicious mama special poke. Must try btw! She is the nicest and most genuine lady I’ve ever met. I usually don’t take the time to write such a long review but when the service is that good and the food is amazing. I will always take the time to do so. Like I told you Auntie. “If I could leave you 10 stars I would” Thank you for the great experience and amazing food ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Found easy free street parking and walked into this very unassuming place, but once you're in it has a mom n pop feel, and very welcoming. We wanted to try as much as we could without over ordering, so this is what we got: Sashimi Combination $30 - the smallest one, and it comes with tuna, salmon and yellowtail. All of this was really fresh and generous in size and portion. My favorite was the yellowtail. Mama Special Poke - 1/2 pound - this was really fresh and not overpowering in flavor in a good way. Butter Fish Stew - very similar to the tradition Korean spicy fish stew, but this is with butter fish/cod and it was the jam! I would order this towards the end of our meal since it's a great meal finisher. Spicy Tuna (minced) - 1/2 pound - this was so different from any other poke I've ever had and tasty! It's minced raw tuna mixed in with masago and Hawaiian red salt. They served this with a side of Korean seaweed, and you wrap it with rice and scoop of the Spicy Tuna - bomb! Lastly, the sides - kimchi, picked radish & jalapenos, and the mac salad were all so good. Additionally, the service here was top notch, and the owner's daughter, Yunee came out and talked to us and told us her story. I will be coming back for sure with my Korean parents!

Cannot sing enough praises about this place. TLDR; sashimi combo and kalbi. We were so awestruck by the sashimi and kalbi that we came back the next day. Sashimi is fresh, creamy, tender. The kalbi is plump, smoky, and tender and juicy. Honestly probably among the best kalbi I've had and I grew up in SoCal too. The bon chan were also great. The mac salad was perfect and was what I was looking for in a mac salad all week in Oahu. Kimchi and radish were fresh and crunchy. Pricing is reasonable for the quality. 24 sashimi pieces (ahi, salmon, yellowtail) for $30. 6 kalbi short rib pieces and rice for $20. When we came back we got the sashimi salad (typically 7 pieces of ahi, quarter pound of cubed salmon, masago) and the meat jun and mama's special ahi poke. All were solid but could not compare to the sashimi combo and kalbi. Service was good. They have a mom & pop vibe. Small but pleasant dining area. Parking is a little hard to find. All street residential parking. It's on the first floor of a corner building. Unassuming but you won't regret it. Definitely my highlight foodwise while in Oahu.

Years ago, when aunty Kyung first moved to the current location, I used to eat there almost every night. I'm back over now from NZ and was both very excited to eat here again and very saddened to hear of aunties passing 😔. Her daughter, who I remember as a little girl sitting in the restraunt most nights, is now fully grown and running the show and, what a job she's doing! You won't find mo betta food on this island than here, poke/kalbi combo is absolutely insane on the taste buds! I'm stoked that you have all kept this restaurant, no, this legacy going and are doing such an amazing job at it . You should all be very proud! If I can give one piece of criticism, just because we always need something to strive for... get the K-pop video clips back on at least one of the TVs. No need sound, they were just such a fun thing to watch while eating and always added to the experience there. Mahalos guys for tha grindz and I hope I can get in one more time before I fly out. Big 🤙 to you!

Kyung Seafood Overall: **** Recommended **** Food: **** Value: **** Menu: **** Ambiance: ** Service: **** Parking: * Street parking If you like Korean food and seafood (poke & sashimi), Kyoung Seafood is the place for you. Where else can you get both of these in the same location and both done well? We enjoyed both of our dishes and they are reasonably priced.
