Izakaya Agaru is a new restaurant located in Waikiki. I recommend ordering the "izakaya" which has 8 dishes to share and adding a few more items like the nigiri sushi, hand rolls, chirashi, or ahi toast. The photos below of the "izakaya" were for 2 people. My favorites were the potato salad, ahi toast, and bruleed tamago. The potato salad was creamy, and it worked well with the crispy chips. The ahi toast on buttery milk bread was amazing and I added caviar to mine. You also have an option of adding uni on it as well. The bruleed tamago was the perfect way to end the meal since we were too stuffed for dessert.
The restaurant is located on the 2nd floor. When you're on Royal Hawaiian Avenue, look for the gray doors with the neon blue "agaru" sign and proceed up the stairs. You will be greeted by the staff once you get to the top of the stairs. The interior design is all wood. Behind the hostess is the kitchen and a sushi bar where you can watch the chefs create the dishes. I had a table in the back and so I got a view of Royal Hawaiian Avenue. The service was excellent, and the staff were knowledge about all the items on the menu. After we finished our meal, the manager came by our table to introduce himself. Overall, the food was excellent, and it was a great dinner experience. For parking, you can park inside the Waikiki Galleria Tower and get a 3-hour validation.
