About

Founded in 2009 by Nori Sakamoto, Pioneer Saloon has built a reputation for high-quality local Japanese plate lunches at prices that won't break the bank. The extensive menu covers chicken, pork, beef, and seafood, with standout options like mochiko chicken, chicken katsu, miso butterfish, and grilled salmon salad. Guests consistently praise the fresh preparation and generous portions that make every visit feel worthwhile. With two Honolulu locations, including the original near Diamond Head and a second spot in the Kaka'ako neighborhood at SALT, the casual, rustic atmosphere suits everything from a quick solo lunch to a relaxed group hangout.
