Our Executive Chef, Akito Yoshioka
Aloha!
People call me, 'Chef Yoshi'.
I moved to the States with my family in 1998 from Japan.
In Tokyo, I earned my skills at traditional Japanese restaurants, hotels, as well as Teppanyaki and Okonomiyaki restaurants. At my last position I was not only a General manager at a hotel in Waikiki, but as an executive chef, which really helped me to learn more about both the restaurant management and the cooking skills.
In 2002, I started my own restaurant with my wife, Julie for 13 years in Kailua town and
opened a Bento & Catering business, Coco Bento in Kalihi since 2014.
I take my pride in my passion of cooking and serving the best food with all my heart to customers. I will continue to do my best job with our best team and my wife, Julie who is a Sommelier for Wine & Sake, is in charge of dining operation.
We are looking forward to serving you!
