Hands down the best hole in the wall, yet not whole in wall Chinese joint ever!We always order the Beef Flank and Tendon egg noodle and hubby orders the look fun, and we add wontons! It's Heaven in a bowl!The tendon is nice and tender while the beef practically melts in your mouth...and the wontons, the wontons with a blend of chewy ground pork and pieces of shrimp round out the deliciousness of the wontons!If you get the jook, make sure to order early because they run out! We lucked out today and they still had it.And the Chinese donut....oh they make it fresh to order so it comes out piping hot and crispy!We didn't order it this time but their look fun roll is full of carbs but...but it's worth every calorie, try it, trust me. You'll be fat, but a happy fatty!I highly recommend this place, it's good and it hits the spot!

Had the beef chow fun, duck look fun, and beef with string beans over rice. All the food was so tasty. Recommend dipping the duck in the chili crisp.Pros: Delicious, timely service and attention, family friendly, great valueCons: parking and dirty restroom. That being said, willing to overlook and visit again because the food is bomb.Kid-friendliness: High chairs.

Had the chicken bitter melon on Look Fun and it was superb. Too bad no bread to soak up the remaining sauce. Service was excellent! Ambiance was great . Very pleasant and very clean. Highly recommend this restaurant. Thank you Lam's Kitchen for a great meal.

If you're in the mood for some hearty chinese food, this is the spot! This place is always packed but worth the wait. I always stop here for lunch when I'm in chinatown. I highly recommend the beef chow fun and beef flank and tendon mein. It's my go to and always so delicious! Your food will come out quick and hot. I can't wait to try the other items on the menu!

Lam's Kitchen, located in Chinatown, offers authentic Chinese cuisine, which was a pleasant discovery. While the staff may not be overly friendly, they ensure your needs are met. It's a popular spot, with locals often recommending it as one of their favorites. I savored every bite of the wonton noodle soup and the spring beans with chicken on rice. They're quite generous with the air conditioning, so bringing a jacket or opt for soupy dishes might be wise. Additionally, the staff can converse in Cantonese, enhancing the authentic experience. Regarding the decor, there wasn't much to comment on, and the sound level was kept at a reasonable level. Overall, I had a positive experience and would consider returning in the future.

Love this place for a quick meal in Oahu. I've eaten in but takeout is solid too. The rice noodles are so fresh and I love getting beef chowfun with cheong fun instead. The beef tendon soup is so comforting with a clean broth flavor profile. The congee is delish with the youtiao. Great for lunch or breakfast and if you want to speed things up just order online :)

100000% recommend this place for the beef noodle soup! Make sure to go early as tables get full pretty quickly and it's a small place. If you don't mind the noise from other tables, it's a great place to dine at!

Ono food! Definitely go for the tendon look fun, super tender and flavorful. Lots of noodles and beef! it's quite a small restaurant but the service is quick so it doesn't take long to get a table! The staff is super friendly and you can tell they have lots of regulars

BEST noods on the planet. Freshly made everyday, you can't go wrong. Beef chow fun is consistently the best on the island and the beef tendon is downright rich and fulfilling. 10/10

Excellent Cantonese restaurant. Had a very good Chow Fun. Service was very good despite the crowds. I will come back for the beef noodle soup as well.

Lam's Kitchen's beef brisket noodles are very delicious, the beef brisket is soft and fragrant, and the service is also great and fast. I definitely recommend the boiled pork offal, fried dough sticks and iced soy milkParking: There is a basement parking lot nearby, with sufficient location. It takes 3 minutes to walk to Linji??.

I had take out. Beef tendon lookfun. Broth was excellent. At first, I thought the homemade lookfun was too soft. After stirring it up in the Broth melts in your mouth, this was a winner, Hope you like tendon? My mom got me hooked on it.
