SANSEI SEAFOOD RESTAURANT AND SUSHI BAR

For sushi that’s extraordinary, never ordinary – you’ve got to go to Sansei. Chef D.K. Kodama’s innovative, Japanese-inspired, Asian Fusion cuisine simply can’t be beat. Sansei’s credits include sixteen HONOLULU Magazine Hale ‘Aina Awards, thirteen “A Taste of Lahaina” First Place wins, and multiple awards as Maui’s Best Sushi. Chef D.K. says, “Dress casual, bring a smile, relax and enjoy the adventure of dining at our restaurants.” Begin with a few award-winning appetizers and creative sushi rolls. Don’t miss signature dishes like the Mango and Crab Salad Handroll, Panko Crusted Ahi Sushi Roll and Japanese Calamari Salad with spicy kochujang. Sushi and seafood often take center stage, but there’s definitely something to please everyone on Sansei’s extensive menu. Other items include ginger-hoisin smoked duck, grilled miso-yaki chicken and shichimi-seasoned filet of beef tenderloin. For dessert, try the baked-to-order Granny Smith apple tart a la mode with homemade caramel sauce. From open to close, Sansei’s ambiance is lively and buzzing with activity, yet warm and relaxed in true ‘island’ style. Make reservations in advance or simply walk-in any time. Come in early for the 25% Early Bird food discount or party late as Sansei presents “Maui’s Best Late Night Dining” with 50% off sushi and appetizers and free karaoke (guests 21 & over only).
