All I can say is this local grilled yardbird joint is the absolute best I’ve experienced and that includes my hanging out in Tokyo, Osaka and Fukuoka plus Honolulu since childbirth!! All the skewers are professionally and expertly prepped and presented. Side and rice dishes are deliciously authentic and truly complement all the hard work and time put in by the back of the house. And service is always very Japanese!!

Formerly Wadamitsu. Now a sole owner. Food,service, & atmosphere still as wonderful as ever. Shared the fried oyster meal, tuna-hamachi-salmon (subbed salmon for 1/2 & 1/2 tuna-hamachi) bowl, tofu chicken jellyfish salad & yellowtail sashimi appetizer. The fish was generous & fresh. Will return soon.

Been wanting to try Happa Restaurant for a while now since they opened at the Gardena Hotel, and they did not disappoint. All the dishes come out hot and delicious, and the service was outstanding. We will be back soon!
