If you are looking for ingredients, items, food from Japan, then this is the place for you. Fish, crab, and wagyu A5 can be found here.
Great place to shop for food items found mainly in Japan: wagyu beef, fish, snacks, drinks, condiments and more. Excellent bentos too!
* UNI, recently I splurged and picked up a tray of uni. When I brought the tray up the counter they swapped it out for a better looking tray. It was so fresh, it felt like it melted in my mouth! Plus there was so much that I had leftover for dinner. You can find this plus sushi, chirashi bowls, and other seafood in the refrigerated section.* WAGYU PLATE, the meat is very tender, plus its nicely marinated so its very juicy. There is also several sides like oden, fried tofu and other tasty things making this plate well worth the price. The kitchen is to the right when you enter the store, this is where you place your order. After you place your order you can pay at the cashier (to the left as you enter the store) when the cooks bring it to the front.* SODA, this is my only gripe and its because they dont sell soda.Have not had an problems finding parking.
A medium sized shop, very well organized, and very clean. If I had to pick one thing, its the made to order bento.
Ive always been curious about J-Shop and decided today would be the day to explore this hidden little grocery store. Located on the corner of Kalākaua and Young Street, J-Shop sells products from Japan, fruits, raw meats, sashimi and has a small bento shop. Prices arent cheap by any means, but if youre really into specific Japanese products this seems like another option to Ninija Market. In true over the top Japanese foodie fashion, theres Wagyu A5 beef you can buy which ranges anywhere from $400-700 and a single cantaloupe for $120.I explored the little bento shop which is adjacent to the grocery area and sells lunch in the $9-$18 range. I got the Saba bento and will definitely return to get the Wagyu Bento into the future.
J-Shop is a small hidden gem in the McCully Ala Moana neighborhood area. I was overjoyed when I first discovered the shop and have returned many times afterward. I am continuously impressed by the selection and quality of their food. They offer the highest quality sashimi, toro, local caught ahi tuna, hamachi, and Wagyu beef around. Everything is always so fresh and delicious. They also have other Japanese treats, rice, noodles, seaweed, snacks, teas, condiments and some home supplies. This is definitely worth a stop especially for quick, high-quality grab and go sushi or sashimi. They also have a restaurant attached, that I haven’t tried yet, but I’m willing to bet it’s amazing. Check out J-shop next time you’re in the neighborhood. They have plenty of parking out front, and you will not be disappointed that you went!
Not much going on here. Head scratch how they stay in, business
Very nice Japanese grocery store. Delicious bread from Japan
Excellent quality and selection for a j-shop c-store in honolulu. Fun!
Items are really expensive but they do have unusual seafood. Didnt see any fresh items like they advertised. A lot of empty shelves the day I was there.
Staff is super friendly. But all ingredients are listed in Japanese..you have to know what you are looking for.. most stuff is high end, so expect $$$.
Nest place to go for steak. Wagyu is awesome.
Fresh Japan seafoods are flown in directly. Only place selling wagyu in Honolulu. Hot bentos are made 10am~2pm. Fresh tuna and variety of other traditional sashimis.
Great selection of bento and sozai to bring home. They usually have nama wasabi and fresh A5 Wagyu beef that they can cut for you. I also like that the stock many exclusive Japaneae products that are difficult to find even in Hawaii. Always friendly staff and pretty reasonable prices.
