Nisshodo



Nisshodo Candy Store
1095 Dillingham Blvd #1-5
Honolulu, HI
808-847-1244

from costco turn left onto dillingham and from alakawa st. first signal light make a left (a small canal should be on your right now), turn into the parking lot by subway and go down the ally, and if you think you are going the wrong direction keep going. It should look like a whole bunch of warehouses if so, you are going the right way. NIsshodo should be on the right and there should be a sign above the door where you go in. If you want alot i suggest calling your order ahead of time so you dont have to wait while they put your stuff together. Usually you order by 1/2lb and 1lb boxes. and trust me they are good!

the best chi chi dango…if you want some go here, don’t buy them in the stores ie longs or foodland they arent as fresh...it looks like a warehouse, no worries we go all da time

Mitsuba Delicatessen $

garlic chicken is super good. we usually get a dozen garlic chicken and dozen nigiri to take the beach. it makes everyone sitting around us jealous lol


okinawa sweet potato crumble. its pretty good. im not a huge fan of sweet potato pastries but these are good. they arent too sweet and dont taste like you are eating a vegetable. lol potato crumble is a must also but they run out fast so gotta go early or call ahead…
