Yamagen is right next to the McCully Ross. It's been there for as long as I can remember, but it had been ages (dare I say 30 years?) since I last went there.
I happened to be at Ross a little later than usual yesterday and noticed that Yamagen was open. So after quickly running through Ross's craft/art section I sneaked on over to get my lunch.
I got the Ten Don ($7.00) to go. I liked that they put the sauce on the side so that the tempura would stay crispy until I got home. It was good.
Here's the outdoor eating area.

They used to sell shave ice long time ago. The old man was kinda grouchy and you had to order the way the sign said, first by size and then what you wanted added in, and last the flavor. Was good shave ice and before Waiola got so popular. Never thought to eat there but now maybe I will try. Thanks!
I was just wondering if they were still around, used to go there often. Glad that they’re still in business. We used to go to Misuzu Restaurant about a block or two before Yamagen.

j: When mom was at Liberty House Waikiki a co-worker told her that her boyfriend owned that place so my mom and I went. He made a tendon very differently, they all were stood up and then he put the tempura sauce around the little tent of shrimp. It was soooo good but typical Japanese food it wasn't filling for me. I THINK he was from Japan he had an accent I think. I'm amazed he's still open after all these years...wonder if he and that gal are still together. -N
haven’t been there in ages! glad they are still in business.
Boy, that potato salad sure looks good.
Aunty! I totally forgot about the shave ice!
Izsmom, I'm usually out and about way before their opening time so was glad I thought to go there when I did.
N, maybe you can go try again. But that parking! Only two stalls. Go shop at Ross first.
Kat, long time yah!
Chet, there was some tang in the potato salad that didn't quite appeal to me . . . but . . . I ate um all. LOL!
Prices look affordable!
Susan, I liked the prices too!
