Teshima's - Kealakekua

Simply one of the best Japanese restaurants in Hawaii, as well as the U.S. Old school, traditional, homey and family oriented spot. Their tempura shrimp is PERFECT! : Traditional Japanese comfort food heaven!!!

Very good shrimp tempura! Miso soup is good! Everything on the menu is good and so is the prices.

We were referred here by a local, for a breakfast suggestion. We love sushi and we were interested in trying the traditional Japanese breakfast we were told about (they serve American breakfast also). We loved it so much, we ate Japanese breakfast there every day of our vacation. We enjoyed the local vibe and low key atmosphere and appreciate that it has been handed down through the family for generations. We still talk about our experience there a year later, and can't wait to go back. We have heard their dinners are very good also, and may try that on a future trip.

Love the food and love the staff, they always make your dining experience amazing.

This place is AWESOME! We have eaten there 3 times. The one of the best restaurants on the Big Island.
