“Shout out to Brandon - the king of Panda. This dude is CALM. This guy is COOL. This fella is COLLECTED. He reads out orders smooth and audibly. He carries himself well and I look forward to seeing him every time. He is a GOAT and I don't even know the dude personally. Just know that if Brandon is there your meal is gonna be served professionally. ????“

“Generous servings per order. Food tasty. Came to table hot but food got cold quickly. Teapot was refilled fairly quick. Usually busy but I think we caught a day & time when not so busy. I’ve been here when all tables were full sometimes they have family dinner parties there. It can be a madhouse. Family dining, casual dress, atmosphere comfortable. Friendly wait staff. Dining room fairly clean.“

“When I have meetings in the Leeward area, I always stop by to get some deep fried manapua to bring!! They're now called Aloha Island Manapua, but their deep fried Manapua is still ono and their baked Manapua and dim sum is SOOO good. Their bentos are also super reasonable and their hot lunch selections so good. I recently got to try their sweet sour spare rib and it was so tender and tasty! Check them out. They cater too!“

“Staff is always nice here! Parking can be hard, but just wait a bit & a stall will open for you. The service is quick, so people are usually ordering & then they are out!
The food is good! Yummy! And they are generous with their portions, so that's good. Prices are hmmm...high? But honestly, they give you so much food.
They have mini manapua now with lots of different flavors. Only the regular size char siu manapua (either steamed or baked) is available now.“

“Basically this is a workers bfast brunch lunch deal. Mon thru Fri. Sometimes parking is iffy early early but after 830 I believe it is all g. I love the place honestly. They get choke local kine grindz so not exactly a tourist destination but a solid place to grab some take out that wasn't engineered in a lab and that also is not deadly(fast food talking to u).“

“Ordered their roast pork and char sui. It is the best! They do run out so it is best to call before heading out in the afternoon; especially on the weekend. (Learned the hardway...picked up after lunch and decided to get more. It was about 3pm - ran out! Maybe had a big take out order?)
There can be a long line and only one person who chops the meat up.“

“Excellent food here! We had the scallop fried rice, garlic shrimp, peking duck and fresh fish. The fried rice was perfectly seasoned, not too oily and didn't have much MSG flavour. We are from Vancouver (which has no shortage of good Chinese food) and this is one of the best Chinese restaurants we've been to!“

“Solid Cantonese and local food made fresh in large portions for reasonable prices. Amazing choice of dishes. Service is more than adequate, friendly, caring about their regular customers. The place is utilitarian, nothing fancy. Order and pay at the counter, they bring the dishes to you, all in takeout containers. Plenty of parking, near the airport. My wife says that it's now added to our rotation when visiting Honolulu. She and I split an order of minute chicken on soft noodles. It was a stretch for us to finish it.“

“Live their Asian food. When locals go home for a visit we always bring back manapua, n pork hash for our family to enjoy. It's a given. Parking on busy days isn't a easy task you might have to circle for a while. But it's worth it.“

“My workplace put in a huge order and when I went to pick it up, it was obviously too much to carry to my car. Jerome and Diana took the liberty of helping me bring the boxes to my car. I didn’t even ask they were so kind about it. Since the very beginning, Diana made sure I had everything I needed and was very professional and very quick to load the boxes. Thank you guys again!“

“At the end of North King Street, in the corner of the big parking (which is free) is one of my favorite Chinese restaurants I go to with my workers for lunch when working downtown.
Food is excellent and reasonably priced. For three of us, we eat like kings for under $100 (usually 5 different dishes). That includes seafood items like clam with black bean sauce and seafood fried rice.
The owner is very friendly and seating can be limited. Although, we never had to wait for seating. I noticed allot of ppl picking up take out orders, so that's another option.“

“Second time back here with friends for lunch. I got the laksa and it was delicious. Great service. Nice place to have lunch or dinner with friends. The pancake was delicious, not too sweet and very light. I was greedy and order a bowl of pickled cabbage and fish with rice noodle home.“

I was not disappointed. Good portions. Good taste. Fast and friendly service. This place has been here since the 20th century. A mainstay of pearl highlands.“

“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.“

“New owners as of Oct 24. No more lunch special, more concise menu and an updated feel! I think the portions are a but bigger and the food tastes a bit more ono! Faves are still sweet sour fish, salt n pepper shrimp, and steamed fish. The owner is the chef and Kelly usually runs the front house! I will enjoy continuing to go eat here! There is a new 3% credit card surcharge.“

“I used to get Panda at least once a week and then I put it in an order at this Panda location and they screwed up five different things on the order including no fortune cookie. I reported the five different mistakes to corporate and they offered me the cheapest Bowl meal that I could get they didn't even try to make it right so I haven't had any Panda since then, a few months. Today I was very hungry and went in to get my order in person. I waited for 5 minutes and didn't even get greeted. There was nobody in front of me as a customer for most of that 5 minutes. I walked out and I will never go back to that panda. They have caused themselves thousands of dollars because of their crappy service. I suspect their manager has no clue what she's doing“

“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!“

“Friend mentioned to check out panda's website for a $25 family deal which includes two sides and three entree items... for a family of four it's quite a lot and the same family pack usually close to $40. During this shelter-in-place time it was a very good deal. Easy to order online, you just show your confirmation number to the worker at the make-shift counter that is now placed at the entrance to the establishment. You can also select what time you want for pick-up.“
“Great meeting place with friends!“
