“Love their Papaya salad platters, Phö broth, Sandwiches, Vermicelli, plate lunch combos, Summer rolls, desserts and smoothies. All so fresh, tasty and delicious!! The owner is amazingly friendly and can remember your name and your order from previous visits. Miss the indoor dining.“

“Picked up party trays for a small New Year's celebration. The food was delicious and all our favorites: chicken katsu, gyoza, pork fried noodles, shabu beef curry. The curry can be messy in a tray but they double-wrapped it in foil to keep it from spilling. It is the best curry anywhere. Everyone at Sumo Ramen Kaneohe is always willing to do whatever it takes to make us happy. The prices are good too. They made our New Year special.“

“Anytime my mom asked, “Do you wanna go get Ayame ramen?” my answer was always, “Yes! YAY, Ayame!” As a kid, this was the first place I ever had ramen that wasn’t from a cup or a packet, and it made a huge impact on my tastebuds and what I’d be open to trying for the rest of my life.
Their curry and ramen are both incredible. I still remember staring at the fish cake, wondering what it was, but loving the flavor and texture, and thinking the bright pink swirl looked so cool. I even started putting chili oil in my ramen at a young age because of this place, I loved the heat and the flavor.
This place left such a lasting impression on me, and I would love to revisit and experience that nostalgia again, especially with my mom. That’s the heart of what makes a great restaurant, when someone loves their food enough to share it, and it becomes part of your memories together.
Wishing your restaurant many blessings and continued good fortune. I hope the families who come in today get to enjoy the ramen as much as I did, because 20 years later, I still remember that first bowl.“

“Went there earlier today and got the wafu steak with the sashimi, tempura(5pcs), and miso soup(included). And lemme tell you they have the most ono wafu steak. You could tell that steak was marinated. It was tender and juicy. You know when your order is ready when the whole restaurant smells like steak. I would definitely recommend trying the wafu steak. It feeds a family of 3 for 30 bucks.“

“As a puertorican picky eater I was skeptical but I was AMAZED! I ordered the cold noodles with Bbq Chicken and Sweet Chili Shrimp. Delicious, I ate everything on the plate. My family all ordered something different and every plate was empty. A must try place!“

“The food was amazing and everything we expected after we saw the video on You Tube. The prices and portions are good and filling.“
“My favorite place to get freshly made Pansit, Miki soup noddles, and Won Ton Wrappers. They also make various noodles and wraps such as Chow mein, Chow funn, Saimin, Mandoo wrap, Udon, Suimai wrap, and their new: Kaigushu noddles. Each items are fairly priced per pound. Recommend coming here for freshly made noddles/wraps.“

“Went to Sun Noodle today(Saturday) because my daughter wanted a ramen bar for her Birthday tomorrow. The nice lady upstairs in the office helped me pick out a specific type of noodle from their product catalog after I described what type of noodles my daughter likes and she also explained to me how the numbers of the noodles correspond to the thickness. I got 15 orders ( 3, 5 packs) of freshly made noodles, tonkotsu and tan tan broth to go with it. Ordering was super easy, you go back downstairs to the outside, walk to the right, press the buzzer on the right hand side of the adjoining warehouse, another girl came out with my order, processed my credit card payment and off I went. Fast, simple and very economical. This was my first time going there although we eat ramen everywhere Sun Noodle distributes their noodles. Love their products, will surely go there again to stock up on my daughter's favorite food, Ramen!!!“
“Great Chinese noodles and Won Ton wrappers. I especially like their Egg Chow Mein noodles. Much better than what you can find in the supermarkets. I buy 3 pounds of noodles at a time. It lasts a couple of weeks in the refrigerator and can be frozen if you need it to last longer. Prices have gone up a little but always a good buy.“

“Highly recommend this restaurant! We visited Lam’s Kitchen twice during our stay in Honolulu, and it truly felt like a taste of home. The food is light yet well-seasoned, comforting without being heavy.
We ordered the beef chow fun, beef look fun, wonton, and boiled liver. Every dish was delicious. Most importantly, after finishing the soup and noodles, our stomachs felt warm and comfortable. No heaviness at all.
If you’re missing the flavors of a neighborhood noodle shop back home, don’t miss this place!“

“We went to Marugame twice on this trip.
Best qualify udon and broth.
Loved assortment of tempura.
This location had lunch special under $10 for small udon with one tempura.
Very busy but efficiently running.
Can’t wait to go back!“

“Please support your local businesses! This is a hidden gem and the food is delicious. The lady that waited on me was wonderful and informative. I had the Salmon Donburi (poke bowl) with the Miso soup (about 1/2 cup). For those of you who like the aesthetics of a meal, it was prepared in a delightful and beautiful manner. I felt bad that I had to eat the beautifully prepared dish. The soup was good and the Salmon donburi was salted to a perfection and the rest of the bowl (avocado, cabbage, greens) complemented it well.“

“Was super indecisive about lunch today. Came to this shopping center to eat somewhere else but saw this and decided to give it a shot instead and I'm glad I did! The AC was broke so a little hot inside but it's hawaii so not uncommon. I got the 12oz steak plate with noodles 🤤. Noodles and steak were well seasoned, steak was tender and the rice had all the flavor of the steak on top of it. If you're looking for a steak plate place in Waipahu this would be my recommendation!“

“Went here for lunch, the food was super good (and that’s coming from a Vietnamese person), all the food came out really fast, there was a short wait to get in though. The only issue I have is that since it is in china town it is super hard to find parking. Other than that it is a great Vietnamese restaurant and I highly recommend it.“

“If it ain't broke, don't fix it!
.
Old school saimin places are just so hard to find and Palace Saimin hits in all the right places. The menu is short selling only saimin, udon, wontons, and beef sticks. Telling by how packed this place is - they're doing something right!
The menu and it's reasonable prices are obviously working so if you're in the area on a cold, rainy day I'd encourage you stop on by!
My favorite menu item is definitely the 4.00 USD beef sticks. Pair it with your complimentary side of hot mustard and your favorite bowl of soup - YUM!

Parking and indoor seating space is limited. Service is quick. Staff are friendly. Card and cash accepted.“

“A bit tricky to find. Its below ground level and located in a plaza that sells other asian food. This one was self service. You grab a tray, pick up your sides and then you order udon from a walk up window. Amazing udon, beats waiting in line for the other one down the street.“

“Aloha all; this spot is a must when on Oahu! I am very impressed with the flavors and how much better they are than so many other Chinese style places. But I also love great soup dumplings and I think they have the best in Hawaii. You must try it. When you’re in the area stop by and just get soup dumplings and leave…. So yummy“

“Very generous portion for the price. Pho soup came piping hot. The noodle was cooked perfectly al dente. The broth was not overly oily, great taste. Beef balls had great texture, not too soft not too chewy. Hu tieu was delicious with the fried garlic in the broth. Would definitely come back to try other menu!“

“My favorite place to get spicy noodle soup with beef. I love paring my noodle bowls with their house friend rice. I have come across many fried rice in my life and this has to be my favorite. On difficult days, I come here to lift my spirits and fill my stomach. On happy days I also come here to celebrate. Very small place but the wait feels like it never happened once their flavors are gliding through your tastebuds. The house beef is well flavored and although the tenderness varies at every visit, as whole, it is outstanding. I may also be biased because I do get this through Uber Eats regularly. #stayfullstaysatisfied“

“Great homey spot for happy tummies. They have all sorts of local favorite plate lunches, Japanese, and burgers. They also have daily and weekend specials.
The prices are also pretty good for a sit down restaurant ~
$14-20+ ish.
Todays meal:
We decided to try something new. Fried Chicken and waffles and a Kids Hamburger Steak.
The fried chicken are small pieces, prob the same as their crispy shoyu chicken with four fat mini waffles with powdered sugar sprinkled all over.
The chicken is super crispy with a great crunch, albeit a few pieces maybe over cooked a bit as they were dry inside. The waffles were fluffy and great dipped in the syrup.
The hamburger steak was a big and fat patty. We asked for gravy all over and son son loved it.
Some of our other favorites are the Fried rice omelet with pork adobo, oyakodon, and our almost always usual the crispy spicy shoyu chicken.
The servers are always polite and friendly, sort of reminds me of aunties.
We'll definitely be back for more meals here.“

“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:)“

“Best ramen in kailua, try the shoyu egg. I always order fried rice with a side of gyoza. Staff are always friendly and food is served quickly and piping hot. Can park in front or along the side of thr building towards the chinese restaurant.“

“Really great tan tan men. Competes with Japan and is a fair price for the portion. Dumplings were awesome as well but on the small side which I actually prefer. Cucumbers were also very good and the marinade was 10/10!!
Service was impeccable and the food came out very quick. Put your name on the list on their website since there’s not a ton of seating but people are in and out quick.
The location has parking which was nice. The restaurant itself is exactly what you want from a local ramen spot…homey with good vibes and very comfortable.“

“No gimmicks, just delicious food made with love. Lots of menu options not commonly seen at other Vietnamese places on the island. Food felt healthy and nourishing. We had the lotus root salad, lemongrass chicken, and steamed dumplings, all were delicious and can't wait to return to try more dishes! I'm only sad that I didn't discover it sooner.“

The vermicelli bowls with lemongrass chicken & tofu (and a banh mi with pork + chicken) were so fresh, so filling, and really high quality. Delicious Vietnamese iced coffee. The service was kind, as well. Highly recommend for a relaxed & high quality meal!!“

“I’ve been coming here for six years, and while the food hasn't changed, the crowds have definitely grown. I was surprised to see it packed on a Tuesday night with people waiting outside.
The atmosphere and service are fairly standard. Because they were in a rush, the staff missed some food crumbs on the seats and didn't wipe the table thoroughly. We ordered quickly to beat the rush from the group behind us.
As for the food, the bone-in fried chicken is always a winner—tender, moist, and crispy. The Pad Thai is actually one of the closest versions I've had to 'real' Thai food (told by thai friend). I personally didn't care for the spring rolls or the beef in the green curry (I prefer chicken), but that’s just a preference.
Everything we ordered feed 3 adults and 1 child.
Prices are standard for Hawaii Thai spots. For spice, 'Medium' is my limit—it’s definitely an 'American Medium,' not 'Thai Medium.' I'll be back, though the parking setup and the location are a bit of a hassle.“

“My wife and I are visiting the Hawaii islands for the 1st time; we are trying to soak up as much Honolulu as possible during this 5 night stay. Today was Lolani Palace, Queen Emma’s Summer palace and finished the day off with an early dinner in Chinatown. Lo Foo Hook Cantonese restaurant in the Asian Culture Center was FABULOUS DELICIOUS. Start with home sweet lemon tea, iced. Sautéed pork with sweet n sour cabbage, shrimp with assorted veggies and a shared plate of fried fish balls, a must. Chinatown is must stop Honolulu walkabout and Le Foo Hook is a must stop lunch/dinner choice.

“Came here for breakfast and ordered a bowl of wonton saimin. The broth was light and comforting, while the noodles were pleasantly chewy. I enjoyed the wontons, which were perfect “one-biters,” well-seasoned, and delicious. Service was friendly and engaging. The place has history and has been around for a long time, making it fun to visit and see locals enjoying their meals. Parking can be difficult, but it is worth it for the food. Also, it's cash only so leave the cc tuck away.“

“This is, by far, the best noodle place in town in my opinion. The pricing is fair, the food is delicious, and the service is impeccable.
I also want to give a shout-out to the server whom I dealt with just now. I always ask for more sauce for the fried chicken appetizer. For most people, the amount they give is probably enough, but I am a glutton for the stuff. She gave me extra for my to-go order, but when I got home (only a few blocks away), I decided that I still wanted more. When I went back, she gave me two more servings and refused to charge me for them. I was absolutely adamant that I at least give her an extra tip for the trouble. She seemed bothered by this, but I left the money on the counter, thanked her, and walked away.
To the server: I'm sorry that I did not get your name so that I'm not able to truly thank you properly, but I appreciate you and you absolutely deserve every bit of that tip.
To the management: thank you so much for everything you do. Your food is incredible, and your staff is wonderful.
I hope that my leaving the extra tip was not offensive because you all absolutely deserve it.
Have a wonderful day.“
