Fodor's Expert Review Tokyo Tei
$
Wailuku
Japanese
Tokyo Tei is worth seeking out for local-style Japanese food. At lunch, you can rub elbows with bankers and construction workers, and at dinner, three generations might be celebrating tutu's (grandma's) birthday at the next table. Enjoy the freshest sashimi, feather-light crispy shrimp and vegetable tempura, and local-style bentos and plate lunches. They're open Monday to Saturday from 10:30 to 1:30 pm and 5:00 to 8:30 pm, and Sundays from 5:00 to 8:00 pm.
