8 Best Chinese Restaurants near Aiea

“If you're looking for some roast pork, chicken or duck come here. It's a pick up and go place so don't expect a place to sit unless you find some outside in the plaza. If you're looking for simple, great tasting roasted meat on rice or crispy noodles this is the place. It's simple and delicious. The menu isn't extensive. Other than those roasted meats there's also ginger chicken that I particular love.

The cost of the food here is a great value as well. Each plate I got was enough to feed 2 or 3 people. I would recommend getting a mix of the meats and share. It was all good.“

“Havent been here in years due to my work schedule but took a half day off from work and was craving Chinese food... Driving down Kam Highway in Aiea figure check out Chun Wah Kam in Waimalu Plaza for a plate lunch🤙

Busy lunch crowd on a weekday but managed to get a parking stall near the restaurant. Walked in a little after they opened so they were still stocking some of the hot food items.

Stand in line and wait you turn till youre called, line moved quite fast. Ordered a 2 choice plate lunch, the plates are still massive as I remember, though prices have gone up. Still worth it imo. Got a mix chow fun/ginger chicken fried rice with sweet sour fish and beef bittermelon. And 2 piece gau gee. For a little under $20 this was enough for 2 meals.

Server was friendly and hooked it up

“Good food, pretty yummy. Ordered the egg fu yung, the sweet and sour chicken, and beef chow fun. Nice plentiful portions . We also ordered rice too. Good size portions of rice. All tasted yummy. They do take out too. Support local and small businesses!!“

“Had the chicken wings, calamari, popcorn chicken, crispy buns, and chicken noodle soup with beef, mushrooms, Bokchoy, and tofu. My soul was fed, and my heart was warm. ☺️ Everything Yoyo recommended was 10/10! She was patient, kind, and answered all of our questions about the menu. Give that woman a pay raise!:) Definitely going back to try the rest of the menu:)“

“I cannot believe it took me over SEVEN years on island to finally eat here—like, how did I miss this?! This spot in Aiea is a total hidden gem and exactly what I’ve been craving ever since my trip to Singapore. It’s similar to mala tang in that you get to pick your own veggies, meats, seafood, etc. to build your soup. The broth options are a little different though—no mouth-numbing mala like you’d find at YGF Mala Tang—but honestly, I didn’t mind one bit.

The spicy pumpkin soup base was perfection: creamy, flavorful, with just the right kick. It didn’t overwhelm my palate or leave me feeling heavy, and it tasted cleaner (less oily) than other broths I’ve tried. If you’re into creamy soups, the pumpkin base is a must-try!

Service was solid too. They refilled my water without me asking and even let me choose my seat (I was the first customer before the evening rush lol). The space was roomy, spotless, and you can tell it’s a true mom-and-pop operation—genuine care for both the food and the customers.

I’m already planning to come back this week because I cannot stop thinking about that pumpkin soup.

Oh, and if soup isn’t your thing (or if Hawaii’s heat has you craving something else), they’ve got chicken katsu with curry, stir fry, and other specialty dishes too.

VISIT. Seriously.“

“I came here with two of my girlfriends for a very anticipated late night dinner after a long day. We all liked our food— I ordered the vegetable ramen with miso broth, my friend got the spicy pork ramen, and my other friend got the tonkatsu— the portions were good, price was good, and the service was stellar. They played a small game with me at the end after I paid for the check, where I won a bar of soap & I thought that was so cool and a cute way to end the meal!!!! I would definitely come back here again. One of the few places open late on this side of the island as well!“

“Great meeting place with friends!“

“Yummy ..😋😋😋 Waimalu Chop Suey is located at Waimalu Shopping Center.“
