This spring-themed House of Sakura pop-up is back for a limited time.
The seasonal pop-up — presented by Prince Waikīkī and The House of Suntory — soft opens today and is grand opening tomorrow. The pop-up is located on the lobby level of the hotel, and is open from 5 to 10 p.m. (last call 9:30 p.m.) Thursdays to Sundays through May 31.
Attendees can look forward to a curated selection of Beam Suntory cocktails — along with premium sakes, Japanese beers, and select wines by the glass — along with shareable dishes.
Dishes on the food menu include a seafood platter for two ($80), sando trio combo ($25), fresh ‘ahi sashimi ($20), yakitori and yaki onigiri combo ($15), and a matcha dessert combo ($12).
The seafood platter comprises a lobster tail, crab, shrimp, oysters and ‘ahi sashimi. It’s served with lemon wedges, Kona ogo and a variety of sauces (ponzu, mignonette and cocktail).
Meanwhile, the sando trio combo ($25) features Japanese-style sandwiches with fillings like tamago (egg salad), tonkatsu (fried pork cutlet) and steak (grilled wagyu skirt steak). The combo features sandwich halves, making it easier for customers to try a little of each.
The fresh ‘ahi sashimi ($20) and yakitori and yaki onigiri combo ($15) are perfect if you want a pūpū-sized snack. The latter features grilled chicken thigh skewers (three per order) served with a grilled rice ball.
Meanwhile, the matcha dessert combo ($12) features Dave’s matcha ice cream and housemade matcha warabi mochi, served with kinako powder and brown sugar syrup.
The beverage selection includes beers ($9), select wines by the glass ($10), Toki High Balls ($15) and a variety of themed cocktails ($17). Choose from shiso-spritz — shiso-infused Suntory Haku vodka, Midori, fresh lemon juice, simple syrup, Bene soda water and expressed lemon peel — Pink Ryu, which is a vibrant mix of dragon fruit, Suntory Roku gin, Haiken lychee vodka, Funkin passion fruit puree and Liquid Alchemist coconut syrup; and Citrus Sanpin.
The latter features Jasmine green tea-infused Suntory Haku vodka, Jasmine green tea syrup, fresh lemon juice, Jasmine green tea and an expressed lemon peel.
Customers can order premium sakes by the glass or bottle. Sake flights ($20) are also available.
Complimentary self-parking is available with validation from the pop-up.
