Engawa Menu

FEB. 2026 Menu

• Welcome Sake - Yui
  Our traditional house-brewed sake - elegant, refined, and crafted in the Japanese tradition
• Course 1 - Seasonal Japanese Amuse Trio
• Course 2 - Waimea Daikon Salad
  Freshly shaved Waimea-grown daikon radish, locally cultivated on Hawai'i Island, natural crispness and clean finish.
• Course 3 - Sashimi* of the Day
  We present a traditional Japanese sashimi selection featuring the freshest fish available—from Hawai'i's waters and select seasonal imports.
• Course 4 - Shio Koji-Grilled Fish
  Fresh local fish lightly marinated in house-made salt koji, then simply grilled to highlight its clean, delicate flavor and firm texture.
• Course 5 - Seasonal Kakiage Tempura
  Crisp lightness, gathered in one bite. A delicate medley of seasonal vegetables—including locally sourced zucchini—gently bound in a whisper-thin batter and fried in the traditional kakiage style. Light yet expressive, each bite offers layered textures and subtle sweetness, bridging the savory courses with graceful warmth.
• Course 6 - Unagi Donburi
  A classic, reimagined for the finale. Freshwater eel, carefully grilled and brushed repeatedly with our house-made tare, developing a glossy glaze and gentle caramelization. Served over warm Japanese rice, the balance of sweetness, smoke, and umami brings the evening to a deeply satisfying close.
