Asian Restaurants near Kaneohe

“A modest facade secrets an impressive culinary find in an Oahu North Shore community.

Voted one of the top ten Asian restaurants in Kaneohe by Tripadvisor, Moonga Asian Bistro features an impressive selection of Japanese and Thai specialties.

While the exterior of this local treasure is relatively nondescript, the interior has recently been completely renovated and offers a bright and inviting atmosphere.

The menu is a mix of Japanese favourites and Thai classics. The dishes are generous in portion and tasty. The staff is over-the-top service-oriented and the prices are pleasantly and surprisingly modest.

All in all, Moonga Asian Bistro promises to be a dining delight.“

“Online order was great, printed labels on each container is one good idea. It was buddy but good was hot and fresh. With the first time using the app to order, there was a $10 discount making our meal less than $10 per person. The staff was working hard being busy, but someone was designated to fill online order so I didn't wait long.“

“Hands down the best pho I’ve ever had! I’ve tried multiple spots on the island, but I always find myself coming back here. The flavors are unmatched, fresh, and comforting every single time. The seating inside is a little limited, so there can be a wait, but it’s always 100% worth it. The staff is incredibly kind and welcoming, and they do their best to get you seated quickly. Easily my favorite spot for pho!“

“Some of the best sushi you will ever have... Owner and staff are extremely friendly and welcoming, and the sushi/poke is outstanding. Aloha Sushi is a must visit for local, fresh, amazing sushi, and if the sushi doesn't make you want to come back for more, the friendly owner/staff certainly will.“

“very filling. yum. like the salmon bowl.“

“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.“

“Uber driver recommended, and they didn't disappoint. Chose the Bulgogi Kalbi combo. GENEROUS portions, and introduced to some condiments that were new to me (potato kimchi specifically), and they offered refills on the condiments.

(Bonus for those staying at the adjoining Ramada 10% discount!)“

“Don't confuse this nondescript place with the nearby Madame Saigon. It was previously not shown on Google Maps. But you should make the effort to find it. While it looks like any other office snack store, I was pleasantly surprised because I enjoyed the best banh mi sandwich of my life here! I ordered the roast pork version and it was incredible. The roll was perfect and all the ingredients inside were high quality. Look at my photo, I want you to see how packed it was inside. Pro Tip: I noticed they had some avocados there and asked if they were ripe and if so, could they add that to the sandwich. I paid a little extra for that of course but the addition of perfectly ripe avocado contributed to the overall excellence of the banh mi. I also ordered a milk tea and they made it exactly as I requested. Service was very friendly. I wish I could give this place 6 Stars. That's why I made the effort to get this place listed with Google. I hope others enjoy this little gem as much as I did.“

“Tried this place out for the first time since had to go to the airport and also grab lunch so gave this place a try. Located off Nimitz hwy in the shopping plaza next to Joes Grill.

Luckily i called in my order, was ready when i arrived?Friendly cashier, had about 3 people waiting for their food so phone orders if youre in a hurry?

Ordered the Lechon plate and the Furikake Ahi plate to try it out and for the price (around 12.50 each) thats hard to beat in Hawaii??

Food was good, portions on the smaller size compared to other place i frequent but I would recommend this place because of their prices. 4 stars...will be back Mahalo?“

“Had a nice breakfast before. Leaving.“

“We walked in and were immediately greeted and seated at an open table. Waters, menu, and table-ware were already on the table. We ordered Kamikaze roll, dancing shrimp roll, and stuffed mushrooms and everything was actually delicious (no there was no discount for me to write a review for them, its actually good). Plates were removed as soon as we finished one roll and the next was served. We dropped a chop stick and we're immediately given a new set. Check was served immediately when we finished the last roll too. We left very impressed.“

“I always get the lettuce wraps, that’s my favorite and they give you plenty 💕🌹“

“Our dining experience at Morimoto Asia in Waikiki, Hawaii was exceptional! The appetizers like ribs and pork gyoza were fantastic, and the dinner choices, including fried rice, orange chicken, and the Miyazaki Wagyu certified grade 5 beef, were simply out of this world. To top it off, we enjoyed a birthday celebration with delicious doughnuts and ice cream with a beautiful chocolate decorative piece. Highly recommend for a memorable dining experience! Plus: the service was amazing!“

“I ate here on my recent trip to Kona. I was happy to find the same menu items that I’m used to on the mainland. The quality and taste of the food were also in line with what I’m used to at home. This place seems like a good value for money compared to some other places I ate at in Kona. I didn’t get a fortune cookie with my meal though, which I’m used to getting at home. Not a big deal, but I noticed.“

“selection, value, and taste.“

“Great food comfortable dining“

“This is a great place to go if you want to quickly grab a lunch for yourself. Tons of options to choose from, and everything tasted really good. It's a little bit of a Japanese fusion bento with some Filipino influence, with a good variety of veggies, BBQ meat, fish, and different kinds of rice. Definitely has a homecooked feel. There is no seating, just self serve shelves and a register.“

“For the amount of food, cost is worth it. Got mini plates with two sides. Both the bbq chicken and chicken katsu plate taste like going to any yummys in hawaii.

Service was pretty bad. One of the empty plates fell onto the ground. The guy picked it up and was about to put the sides in it. Luckily his coworker scolded him and he grabbed another, clean plate on the counter. A different time, the server seemed lost while putting sides in the plate and grabbing another plate. It was a weird situation.“

“servings is big and full filling“

“Yummy Korea BBQ at Pearlridge Mall is one of my go-to spots when I’m craving something flavorful and filling. What really sets it apart is how clean and well-kept everything is—you can tell they take pride in how they run the place. The food always tastes fresh, from the perfectly grilled BBQ chicken and kalbi to the crisp, well-seasoned sides. There’s a depth of flavor in their BBQ that you just don’t get at most other food court places. It feels like real care goes into every plate. For a quick bite, it’s surprisingly satisfying and always hits the spot.“

“The moment it hits the grill—whether it’s marinated galbi or clean, unadorned brisket—you know you’re in serious territory. The fat renders fast, dripping into flame, sending up that unmistakable smoke signal that bypasses reason and goes straight for the animal part of your brain. This is beef that wants heat, that improves under pressure, that rewards restraint if you let it char just enough before the flip.

The galbi is sweet without being apologetic about it, soy and sugar tempered by garlic, the marinade soaked deep into the muscle rather than painted on like a sales pitch. Cook it right and it pulls with a gentle resistance, the kind that reminds you you’re eating something that once had a life. The unmarinated cuts—bulgogi-style or brisket—are where the place really shows its confidence. No camouflage, no tricks. Just good beef, sliced thin, trusting the grill and your attention span to do the rest.

Wrap that beef in lettuce, add raw garlic and a green chili, drag it through ssamjang, and you get the full argument in one bite: fat, heat, sweetness, funk, crunch. It’s loud, messy, and profoundly satisfying. You don’t talk while eating it. You nod. You reach for another piece. Conversation can wait.

Yummy doesn’t moralize about provenance or wag its finger about technique. It simply puts beef in front of you that behaves the way beef should when exposed to fire. This is barbecue as a collaboration between cow, cook, and flame—and when it works, which it does here, you leave smelling like smoke and feeling like you made the right decisions today.“
