24 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near Waipahu

“On a rainy day, we found ourselves craving pho, and this hidden gem was just the spot! The map led us to the back, but it’s actually located towards the front, right by Suzie's and the vape shop. The food was absolutely ono—really delicious! The restaurant itself is quite small, but the service was quick and efficient. The only downside was that the restroom could have been cleaner. Despite that, we had a great experience and will definitely return!“

“The catfish is constantly good always have that when I go there“

“I chose take out, so I can only speak about the food itself, not the service. I ordered the vermicelli with spring roll. It was okay! I thought the nuoc Cham (sauce) was somewhat bland, and I added my own fish sauce at home. The vegetables were fresh and the noodles were a tad over cooked. The spring roll filling was tasty, but the wrapper was a little stale. It felt like it had been sitting out for a little. Nonetheless, the food was good! I would be willing to try the food at the restaurant or a different menu. :)“

“A cozy little Vietnamese cafe offering a wonderful variety of dishes. I enjoyed the Pho` Combo. Good size portion at a good price. The broth was delicate and delicious served piping hot. I have some concerns about black pepper in the broth but it didn't stop me from enjoying it all the same. The staff was friendly and eager to please. I can see myself making a detour to have lunch here in the near future.“

“This IS The BEST Pho' On The Island, My Wife And I Have Tried Every Pho' Place Recommended And Not Recommended. And This Is The Best Pho' On The Island.
The Broth Alone Is Amazing.
Also They're Curry Dishes Are Just As Delicious. It's A Great Place. I Love Pho' King ;).
Also If You Get Off On Making Google Say Swear Words Ask Google To Call Pho' King Restaurant In Wahiawa. I Can't Stop Laughing.“

“We came on a whim and luckily we did. Everything from the bahn mi to the phõ selection was delicious and they have a huge vegetarian selection. I would definitely come back if in the area again. Service was excellent as well and there's lots of parking given it's in the shopping mall area.“

“I have been coming here since I was a kid and it is always great.“

“Was highly recommended by v my girlfriend who lives in Aiea! traveling from Mililani high tailed it here 20 minute commute! Love their menu Japanese & Vietnamese my two favorites in one place!
Ordered the oxtail pho! large portions 6 or so pieces of juicy flavorful oxtails! The broth was awesome..!! I will be back next week!“

“Smaller neighborhood favorite restaurant. This shopping center is always busy so parking is hard to find you should call ahead for takeout because everything is made fresh and they're always busy. They have two benches that run along the length of the restaurant with tables at seat four at a time if you get takeout, I recommend reheating the soup so it's hot hot and can cook your raw steak. I love to mix hoisin sauce and Sriracha into my broth to enhance the flavors to my liking. The broth alone is very clean and flavorful.

Vegetarian options: Few options: Veggie pho and veggie rolls, plus i think the dessert and drinks are veggie.

Parking: Lots of businesses use this parking lot and there's often cars circling.

Kid-friendliness: There is no kid menu if you order a small there will be definitely leftovers.“

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

“Ha Long Pho is one of my "go to" stops when I'm home...and as always, the ono grindz did not disappoint!!! Summer Rolls: Very large!!! I don't remember them being as full as they were today...not sure if it was a mistake, or a new recipe. As I remember it was so fresh filled with crispy veggies!!! Definitely a 10/10!!! Seafood Pho: When it's an option, I always order seafood Pho! For those of you who know how to eat Pho, you know that beef broth is a must, no matter what style Pho you order. Most places I have to ask for beef broth as it often comes with a vegetable broth...but here, it automatically comes with beef broth. And the seafood was not chewy. I would have loved to see some other seafood represented (it only had fishcake balls and shrimp) but it didn't take away from the healthy portion and umami flavor!!! 9/10 (Only because of the variety of seafood.) COVID Protocols: I felt very comfortable at Ha Long Pho, they require proof of vaccine, or negative COVID test, to enter...and...instead of your spices being left on the table, they are pulled after each guest, I can only assume to sanitize before the next guest uses it. 10/10 for sanitation and safety!!!“

“First time here. I thought it be just like any other place. But I was wrong. I had the BBH and my husband the crispy noodles with vegetables and seafood stir fry. All the flavors were there and where it was supposed to be. They didn't skip on their seasoning! It was delicious!! ??? definitely recommend and will come back for more!!! Their food portions are on the larger side. Nothing wrong with that just come hungry or share with family/friends! Service was friendly and quick. Lady who took our order so super nice!“

“Love this place.
I've been pho hopping on island to find the best and authentic pho place!

this was my 5th pho spot on Oahu and the best one so far!!!!!! PERIOD!

Not mixed with other food like chinese or thai etc.

Staffs are super friendly as well!!

Dont miss out this place!!!

Only cons : It's very small place.
- needs more A/C when it's packed.

Hope their business goes well and have bigger restaurants soon! Mahalo!

Kid-friendliness: have high chair
offer extra bowl for baby“

“We had a great experience here. Hugh was very friendly and suggested delicious dishes. We started with the chicken wings which were super crispy! Then we had two types of pho, lemongrass chicken and teriyaki chicken. Everything was tasty and the portions were generous.“

“Fantastic restaurant and experience with plentiful and great tasting authentic Vietnamese cuisine! They were kind enough to seat our party of five near their closing time! Big Kiné Mahalo and we’ll certainly be back again real soon! 🤙🏼“

“I love the food here. so good“

“i LOVE lemongrass chicken here and i LOVE the pho but like they kinda like wrap it weird i think its this place idk but like sometimes the pho like gets loose and goes rampant like a raging tiger but that does not matter cause i LOVE it, thank you, Love, “

“I had the beef pho and garlic chicken wings. While the chicken wings had no flavor and seemed to be fried without seasonings, the Pho was AMAZING! It was fresh and had enough of the pho soup in the dish. I will be going back for the pho. Polite staff.“

“My family loves this place! I am pregnant, and haven't been able to enjoy any meat. My husband wanted to try this place, so we ordered the Kalbi BBQ. I thought I wasn't going to be able to have more than a small bite, because of my intolerance to meat. I was so glad we tried this place! I took more than just a bite, I finished everything. We love it! New favorite place! The food is so delicious!“

“One of the better Thai restaurants around Hawaii with not bad portions. Everything we had was really tasty and I didn’t swell up or have a headache after so it was a plus!??I will definitely return to try other items on the menu I heard is good.“

“We went there Tuesday about 230p. It has a free parking lot and also street parking available. I will usually go to pho one because it's one of the rare places that serve the crab meat soup. We had the spring rolls, seafood pho and the crab meat soup.
1- sorting rolls is good and not oily. It comes with lettuce, noodles & sauce
2- soup base is good even though you don't b like putting anything in it, but there are the typical hot chili, hit chili oil, sriracha, hoisin and if you want... fish sauce. The pho as usual has the veggies... sprouts, basil, jalapeño, lemon“

“Stopped by looking for some vegetarian food and found this place. I had tofu fried rice which was simple: rice, egg peas and tofu. The rice was fluffy, with some of the grains crunchy fried. It was piping hot and delicious. My husband had a pastrami sandwich and said it was very tasty and the bread perfect. Staff also lovely.“
