Nigiri at Izakaya Uo-San, Honolulu

The hand-written menu is how you know you're gonna have a good time.

(There's separate printed menu with some cooked dishes like karaage on it as well.)

Small, izakaya-style restaurant with a short-ish but very respectable fish list. Very cool to see stuff like kinki, sawara, nodoguro, kuromutso, ebodai, and ainame on the menu. I opted for some known favorites – shima aji and kinmedai – while adding in ainame as something new to try. Couldn't help but get some aburi oo-toro as well.

Good stuff, nicely prepared.
