16 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near Keaau

“Our 2026 new choice restaurant, for Vietnamese/Thai/Chinese food! We went on 2/28/26 and I ordered Lemon Chicken and he ordered Tom Yum soup. Both were very delicious! The service was fast, and the young lady and young man are very polite and friendly. Such a convenient location, because we went shopping at Foodland Keaau, right after our lunch! I especially love their normal restaurant hours! Will return!“

“Lots of seating indoors. Bahn MI was perfection! We tried the regular and the shrimp. Both were superb. The combo Pho was everything I'd want. Tender meat, flavorful borth, fresh veg. Dumplings were okay fried. I think they would be better the way they're usually served - steamed or boiled. Banana lumpias were delicious. Portion sizes are great for the price.“

“This place is a sleeping giant. The entire party thought the food fabulous. Twenty years ago I wrote restaurant reviews. This place deserves lots of good attention and vibes. I loved the food. I had the shrimp papaya salad. Yum! Can't show a picture. I just have an empty plate.“

“Picked up sandwiches for home. Met the Owner, very nice and personable while waiting for my order. I learned that he makes his own Bahn mi baguettes every morning at 4am. They are super crispy and light. We frequent this place every 2 weeks. Also had the fresh spring rolls…delicious. Eat and support local!“

“We were looking for something homey and warm to eat after a long arduous touring and traveling. We found this cute little family owned restaurant. Right when I entered, I immediately knew it was going to be good as the pho aroma hit our faces. We ordered the combination and it was one of the best food we ate on the island. Will come back on our next trip.“

“I ate here at least once a week when I lived in Hilo. The chicken pho is some of the best I've ever had (including my travels to Vietnam). Also, the sate noodle soup is insanely flavorful.

Could use more ambience. But the delicious food and friendly staff more than make up for any shortcomings in the decor department.“

“We had the pork lemongrass banh mi and the daily special banh mi, which was a sweet and spicy sausage that is a local favorite. Both were delicious and so flavorful. Employees all so friendly here and a lovely area to enjoy a quick outdoor bite. May get to share a picnic table with some new friends or take a picnic blanket or chairs and sit in park like setting behind the food trucks.“

“Customer Service was amazing. Food was delicious. First time there and I absolutely loved it!“

“This is a nice little cozy place that serves really tasty and hot meals. We had a few dietary requirements and the server listened to all of them patiently and provided us with options. The food was really tasty, glad we made it there for dinner. Will definitely return if we are in the area again. Highly recommended!“

“We were here as a larger group spontaneously for lunch and the restaurant coped very well with our many orders at once. You also have the option to pay separately [you can then go to the front desk], which is not standard in the US. \nThe food was consistently delicious and we got our food quite quickly. The atmosphere is less in focus, but that didn't hurt our pleasure.“

“I give 2 stars because how they charge my tip. I ordered take out and only put down ~$5 as tip. Review my receipt through Square. I see they charged $10 tip even though my bill was only $39.79. Remember to review your receipt through Square before you leave this restaurant.

Updated: I am raising the review to 5 stars after the prompt response from owner. My review will be mainly about the food quality. Very good food at decent price.“

“This was my first time eating here and was so impressed! Very nice menu, reasonable prices , clean . Food presentation was beautiful and everything we tried was delicious! I ordered the beef stew pho and the meat was so tender and broth very savory . We also ordered the Vietnamese pancake which was really fun and different . The dipping sauce we just couldn’t get enough of . Can’t wait to come back and try other dishes. This is definitely a hidden gem in Hilo.“

“So yummy and realistic vegan Vietnamese food 🤤🤤🤤“

“Ngon-hợp vệ sinh& tiếp đón khách nhiệt tình!“

“Another one of my favorite places to go to for dinner. Their Phó is amazing!“

“We've been twice in last month. Once for lunch and second time for dinner. We brought our friends with us for dinner. We all had a good meal.

Vegetarian options: Freshly prepared with good sauces and appealingly presented.

Parking: This restaurant is co-located with a couple other restaurants, a large Walmart and Office Max and Ross clothing store. Thus parking is ample but shared by many establishments. And this area is nearly always very busy. Not impossible to park but not always convenient. Handicap parking, though seemingly numerous is always in high demand.“
