In 1935, Taisuke and Katsuko Sekiya had the idea to open a restaurant that served a variety of okazu (Japanese delicatessen foods) and dessert delicacies. It turned out to be the idea of the century — well, nearly a century — as the Kaimuki eatery celebrates 85 years. Consistency is at the heart of everything Sekiya’s does, and that’s exemplified when browsing the menu. Its beloved BBQ Sticks, for example, have been a staple for decades. Plate lunches, meanwhile, grew popular during World War II, when they were sold for just 10 cents a pop. Remaining a forever fan favorite, the Kaimuki Avenue storefront offers a variety of plate lunch specials.
