located in the food court above hmart. we stopped by natsuboshi after buying groceries. We ordered the tonkatsu curry and it was really good and not too salty. The curry has depth and contained lots of vegetables thay gave a lot of texture to the curry. The katsu was lightly breaded and fried well. I thoroughly enjoyed this place!

A quick ramen or rice bowl meal option. Located above H Mart in the food court. A small counter area to order. The employee recommended the sukiyaki rice bowl. I ordered it for lunch and to go. My walking buddy and I decided to eat our lunch at the table areas of the food court. Well lit and generally clean area.Bathrooms are located on the same floor. The rice bowl came with a slightly undercooked egg on top. I tried to give the egg to my walking buddy, but the yolk broke and went all over the sukiyaki! The beef was a bit stringy for my taste. The sauce was not salty which I liked. I mixed the broken yolk into the sukiyaki and hot rice to be safe. The bit of ginger was nice and provided a great added flavor to the sukiyaki. Overall, the sukiyaki rice bowl rated 3/5 stars. Ambiance: 3/5 stars (It's a small space to order and tables and seats are part of the food court area. Service: 4/5 stars. Pleasant employee who recommended dishes.

A very convenient location in Kakaako, easy parking, with lots of open seating. It's one of several vendors in a food court above H-Mart. Unfortunately, the food falls short, especially when compared to the competition in the area.I had the vegetable shoyu ramen and tempura bowl. The ramen noodles were hard and soup a little salty and not very flavorful. The tempura was alright, nothing special. There was a over easy egg in the middle of it that just didn't seem to complement the tempura.Service was good and fairly fast. The eating area is very comfortable, nicely spaced out and air conditioned. If I do go back, I'll be trying some of the other vendors in the food court.

Not sure where I should start with my experience at Natsuboshi on the 2nd floor of Hmart Kaka'ako. I liked my sukiyaki bowl. But my friends and I were ticked off by the terrible customer service, which was borderline racist. I went with a local guy and a black guy from the mainland. My local friend and I ordered our food. He had a steak bowl combo. Mine was just a sukiyaki rice bowl. I was busy talking with my other friends at the window seating area. My friends heard our number being called. My local friend went to get food. The lady gave him a sukiyaki rice bowl, miso soup and gyoza, not the steak bowl. After inspecting the food against the receipt, I said that was not a complete order. So, my black friend went to get the missing dish. The lady cashier told him, "I gave you everything already." He came back confused. I was little angry at that point. I brought the food tray back to the counter and demanded an explanation with my receipt. It took her a couple of minutes to figure out there was something missing. She said the steak bowl took a while to cook and will be ready soon. What I don't understand was why she brushed my black friend off by telling a lie. After carefully analyzing with my local friend, he said there was a big group of black kids ordered before us. She must be confused with those who were in that group. My black friend is much older than those kids and was not part of that group. But still. Wouldn't common sense suggest that you check our receipt first?

I got the fried shrimp curry rice at about $17. The dish was fine. I like how they served the shrimp separate from the curry. Super light and d crispy. The curry was also good. Just super disappointed in the lack of anything else. No pickled vegetables, or anything extra. Portion was fairly small although you can get a bigger portion for only $3.50 more. If I was really craving curry and already in the area I might go back.

I came here during lunch. I ordered the chicken karage rice bowl. The chicken karage bowl had four pieces of fried chicken and a egg in the center. I thought the bowl was good. The restaurant is located in Hmart on the second level food court. There is private parking lot or street parking.I would have to return to make a better assessment of Hokkaido Ramen Natauboshi.

Just ok. We had the shoyu ramen which sufficed for the kids. Nothing to write home about.

Located on the 2nd floor in hmart! Really good service and the person in charge was nice and helpful. I like the noodles which were thicker than typical ramen noodles. the black garlic was kind of bland even with all the garlic that you can see, the flavor just didn't come through. The spicy miso while it didn't look super spicy it was actually really spicy the broth kind of tasted like peppers were just brewed in it. The bamboo was cut extremely thick, so thick that it didn't get soft even after eating all the ramen. The miso soup didn't have much miso taste and had a sweet taste. I did like the gyoza. I kind of want to try the sides which sound good, maybe the rice dishes fair better

Located on the 2nd floor of Hmart, this food court has so many delicious eats! Our eyes are always bigger than our stomach, so even after our scampi shrimp plates at Giovanni's we kept looking for more food. lol Hubby got these delicious chicken karaage and the sukiyaki rice bowl. Reasonable pricing and good portion! We probably didn't need dinner round #2, but we were so glad we did because it was delicious! Wish we had more time on our trip to come back and actually try the ramen bowls. Not sure if the food court validate parking, but we stocked up on snacks at Hmart and got an hour parking validated.

All I can day is that the food is terrible. Without exaggeration, this is THE worst tonkatsu curry plate that I have had. The pork was tough. The curry bland and watered down. The rice... how can you screw that up?!... was mushy and pastey. The miso ramen wasn't much better. The ramen was overcooked and soft. The dashi was a little on the salty side, but at least the miso taste came through.Not exaggerating when I say I won't eat here again. Maybe they had a new cook today, but I'm not coming back to find out.
