Fujiyama Texas Japanese Kushi-Katsu Izakaya

Honolulu
Japanese Restaurant
$$$$

Fujiyama Texas in Honolulu specializes in deep-fried food, which is where the Southern state comes into play. However, the deep-frying technique is actually Japanese and is called Kushi-Katsu and involves rice oil to deep fry meat, seafood, vegetables and tofu. They even have deep-fried dessert, such as deep fried banana on ice cream. Make sure you're going on a day where they are open; they close every Tuesday and the third Monday of every month.
