This was my second visit and it solidified as a favorite. So love this place! Food tastes so fresh and delicious. The crabmeat curry is definitely a must try, had it both times lol. The only item I disagree with which many people raved about were the steamed dumplings. For me they were unpleasantly chewy and didn't care much for the flavor but every other thing I've tried was grrrreat! The owner gives great friendly service although I do agree with one of the other posters who said he can get a little judgy if you order a lot of food. But even she wrote lmao so we laugh with him lol.

The pho had a really nice hearty broth. Staff was nice

The facility is very clean and cozy. There's even a second room with longer tables to accommodate larger groups. There is plenty of free parking behind the restaurant with additional metered parking out front if necessary.The staff is very friendly and courteous. The food was delicious and was like home cooking. It's really authentic Vietnamese food when you want to get away from the tourists influences.

Had the crab curry and the garlic shrimp. delicious everytime. Very welcoming staff . BYOB

We had #85 rice with spicy lemongrass chicken & #93 rice with braised large prawns and they were so delicious ?. Staff was nice/ friendly, fast service, place was clean and cozy, parking can be a little challenge.

This place is genuinely exceptional. I wish that I could give them eleven stars. Fifty-eleven stars. All the stars. All of them. Even the sunWe only got the dumplings (made with tapioca flour for you gluten-free folk) and a wrap plate with grilled beef wrapped in Lot leaves, that you then combine with rice noodles, basil leaves, mint leaves, cucumber spears, shredded carrots, et cetera to create your own Summer rolls.The waiter/manager (owner?) was friendly and helpful. He wisely informed us that what we had ordered would be enough to fill us up and, though we were skeptical at first, he was totally right.We got some unusual desserts, too. Well...my partner's was unusual: He got a sea kelp and mongo bean sweet treat. I got creamy caramel flan. Both were utterly delightful.The only issues were that they had styrofoam containers and their toilet paper is hung in the underhand fashion.Other than that, they're perfect.If you come to Honolulu and you don't eat here, you're just wrong and I will pray for your soul.

take out order, as soon I get home soup spills everywhere almost nothing left, they're containers are not tight enough to hold the soup, I ordered four meals they all stuff in one big plastic bag, I trust them I thought its secured I was very disappointed

Friendly service. Good food. Hole in the wall. Crab curry and crepe was ?. You can get baguette instead of rice. So good.

Nice low key place. Service was very nice and professional. I had the stuff chicken wings, this is the first place Ive seen with stuff chicken wings in over 5 years. It is a labor intensive work to make stuff chicken wings and it was pretty good. Would definitely come back just for this. I also had a small bowl of Pho, which to my surprise had a lot of noodles and other beef parts. Places I usually order from do not come with that much of food in 1 small bowl.

Amazing service and food! Need masks to enter. Spring rolls are the BEST!
