Kozo Sushi

I'm giving a 4 star for the efficiency, friendliness and price of food you get. It's not some fancy sushi place like going to a private omakase chef curated meal at Suntory but if you are hungry it will satisfy you. I come here when I'm pressed between appointments and need a quick lunch that isn't deep fried.

I used to work for the Mo'ili'ili Kozo location in the 90's & their temaki circumference was normal, not like the temaki that I have in these pics. Kozo's prices & quality are still unbeatable though. Their sushi rice still tastes the best too. No matter what, we still love Kozo Sushi !

Not much has changed at Kozo Sushi Kaneohe and that's what I love about it. Been eating here since kid time. My go-to is the spicy ahi. In a hand roll or maki or gunkan or in a bowl. I like to add shrimp tempura or shoyu spam (or both) to my spicy ahi bowl. There's always a kid working their first job on the register so be patient or you'll stress out the old lady making the sushi.
Let's go! Tip the kid, thank the lady and go straight across the shopping center (behind Foodland) to Kj's to grab some ono fried or furikaki chicken to enjoy with your spicy ahi. You'll thank me later!

Solid place to get sushi!

Staff is friendly, nice kind service, and fresh tasting sushi quality. Each item is made to order by a sushi chef in the back!

Quality is better than your standard grocery store, and about the same/slightly less in pure fresh quality as a high cost sushi restaurant. Price range is very inexpensive--reasonable given the style of ordering and experience! As in, all orders are TO GO as this is not a restaurant/sit down shop.

All of us enjoyed our orders, and they even had vegan/vegetarian options for me! Yay!

Super good poke bowl, still day dreaming about it. I came here with my boyfriend who grew up on this side of the island (I lived in Kapolei and was perfectly fine with my Foodland poke bowls). Surprised to find that I fell in love with the poke bowl here and it's now my new favorite poke spot. Super nice servers. The inside is small, not a spot where you would sit and eat. Meant to pick it up and go. Can't wait to come back in the future!

Always great dirty bowls and in my opinion best spicy ahi on the windward side. You no longer need to wear a mask.

This location is always consistent. The lady at the cash register is very polite and always makes sure that my order is correct. You can call to order ahead for pickup, but they are fast so you can just go there and order and it will be ready in 5-10min.
Their fish is a decent quality for the price. I got the spicy ahi roll and the spicy ahi gunkan. It was my first time trying the roll as I normally just get the gunkan. It was the same thing, but the roll has sprouts inside it. It was okay, but the spiritus gave it a weird flavor that did not pair well with he spicy ahi. Next time I will order the roll without the sprouts inside or just get the spicy ahi gunkan.
There are also other sushi sets which are extremely reasonable in price.
The store is small and can only hold about 2-3 people at a time so you may have to wait outside for a little bit.
They require masks while ordering and picking up in the store (it's their store policy). If you forget, they give you one to use.

Would you believe me if I said I fantasize about the sushi here?
Fast and tasty! Every time my husband and I are in the area we grab about 8-9 rolls.
He gets the Ahi ones, and I always get the vegetable roll, well 3-4 of them. I oink out on them. It's just to easy to smash 4 rolls when they taste so good and the wrap is crunchy and fresh because they'll seal them in plastic with their magical wrapping so you never get soggy rolls. Twelve thumbs up!

Good customer service prices us decent and food is great. Been going here for like 10 years now and not planning on stopping

this is the first place I go every time I come back from the mainland from college. The spicy ahi bowl is all I crave when I'm in cali. But not just any location. I will not order a spicy bowl from any location but Kaneohe Kozo. Even if I'm in Honolulu or on the other side of the island, I'll either drive to Kaneohe or not get one at all. best place ever!!! please keep this place in busines!!
