Hours adjusted to 10:30 am to 8 pm everyday except TUESDAY ONLY. Thank you very much! Sad News --- Also this business will close down in the near future perhaps 3-4 months from now. Get your fix while you can.

I haven't been feeling well so I sent my husband to pick up the order. Well he came home saying they added $2 per item for inflation! Rough math that's like 20% per item! I was sick and didn't feel like cooking so it was what it was. Food was fine but that $2 per item inflation upcharge is nuts! I guess if they were upfront about it on their website I wouldn't be so upset.... Ill get takeout elsewhere next time I am not feeling good...

Always great tasting Chinese food in Aiea... but I think the takeout portions have gotten smaller and the Chinese chicken salad dressing was orange sauce??? Still in search for a good Chinese chicken salad place.

First impression walking in, smells like old furniture and sewage. I think mostly because it smells like sewage outside the establishment so I won’t blame them. Aesthetically it’s not nice, I’ve never been to North Korea but I imagine it’s just as dilapidated. The service was nice the lady was very kind and prompt with our order. Now the food, the crispy wontons are great very good texture and flavor. I ordered the roast duck and it was good but it did feel like the meat was maybe a little old but overall ok. The beef chop suey chow mein was quick to come out which was nice but it was very bland not appealing to look at and was basically noodles with beef and cabbage drowned in gravy. The water also didn’t taste right I don’t know if it’s because the cups were dirty or wherever they dispensed it from was not sanitary. I will say that the tea they brought out was very good and brought peace of mind because at least the water was boiled. Overall I would say that the place nor food was what I expected, I’m sure at some point it was at its prime but I think those days are long gone. I give the two stars to the staff and service.

Food okay, not the best, nor the worst. Ordered the minute chicken chow minutes. Noodles a bit under cooked, bbq chicken good. Pressed duck, soso. Located in the Aiea shopping center next to Times supermarket on the ground floor, below McDonald's It's BYOB here.

Living in the Aiea area always looking for a good Chinese restaurant around here. Decided to check out Aiea Chop Suey few doors down from Aiea Times. Restaurant not that big but pretty crowded. One waitress serving all the tables with great service! Dish portions not too big enough for 1 person but the good thing is BYOB...

This dirty, run down place was EMPTY and as I stood by the register, the cook came out of the bathroom pulling up his pants and digging his nose. I should've ran! I only came here because Roast Duck Kitchen upstairs had just closed and I wanted crispy gau gee. Bad mistake!!! I paid $10.47 for 8 miniature bite sized gau gees. I picked up the bag and it was really light so I looked inside to make sure they were in there. I told the lady, "Wow, expensive huh for 8 gau gees" She replied, "Everything is expensive!" If it tasted good, I could be more understanding, but it was HORRIBLE. It tasted rancid, like the oil was overused and old. Yuck! (I'm envisioning rats swimming in it after hours!) It also came with a small container of mustard/shoyu so I asked the sassy lady at the register if I could have another one and she says, "But I gotta charge you!" So I said forget it and walked out. I will never return and I hope you read this review and don't waste your money. After telling a few people about my experience, they all said that the food is terrible and I should've read the reviews first. So, take my advice... Go elsewhere! You're very welcome! They lack on customer service, good food, and most importantly... cleanliness!

When my husband and I came to the restaurant around 3pm yesterday their was no one else in the place... It took awhile for anyone to even notice us... We were seated.. Service to even take our order was slow.. To say that the staff was rude is an understatement... The server finally got around to taking our order... We received the smallest portions I have ever seen of Kung Pow Shrimp, Walnut Shrimp, Chicken Fried Rice & Spring Rolls... The food was less than mediocre in taste! Our bill came to $48.00 which we feel was a total waste of money! We won't be back!!!
Bad customer service . The older server she's nice. But the female owner was rude. After we payed our bill she went up to my husband and said " tip the server cause she served u guys" (in a rude way) like maam we were gonna tip her ANYWAYS CAUSE WHAT A** WOULDN'T TIP SMH. I felt like no one was tipping the old lady for her to say that. But doesn't give her the right to say that to us or anyone . Food was good tho customer service sucks.

I haven't been here in years! Prices obviously went up like all over. Decided on some won tons so a friend that lives nearby likes it here, well cause near for him lol. So was either plain won ton mein or wor won ton (wor=lots of veggies like wonbok). Reason why my friend likes this here is because they give you like 10 pieces won tons! Give or take, mein noodles were ok thin and broth was chicken stock type yellowish. Not too much flavor but not lacking and that's what hot mustard shoyu is for, dipping. Won tons wasn't bad, good wrapper to filling portions. Also figured we will share so got a 2 item lunch special. Sweet sour spare rib is always a go to Chinese restaurant classic for us. And also got cold ginger chicken, a all time favorite of mine. Comes with rice and a little chow mein. Portions imo was very little for the price we paying. I think it was a chicken drum stick that was chopped in half for the cold ginger, flavor was ok but so little mostly bones. Spare ribs was kinda dry and again small portion, few pieces inside a tea cup. Overall wasn't too bad but what we got for the price was meh. One red flag for me I didn't pay attention nor got a pic of was the spoon for the hot mustard. After I was like hmm weird spoon and pink. Look closely was a Baskin Robbins plastic spoon!

Gonna start out by saying this isn't gonna be a very long or detailed post. Why? It's local Chinese food done wrong. I got the minute chicken over cake noodle for $12. Price was good I thought. But there was probably 4-5 tiny slivers of green vegetables. Couldn't tell if it was choi sum or something else. The cake noodle was stale and old. This place doesn't believe in vegetables. My coworkers who got the other dishes that usually come with snow peas, carrots, shiitake mushrooms, and green vegetables was replaced with bamboo shoots and tons of bean sprouts. It was really unappetizing and looked unappealing. The restaurant was hot. No air conditioning. It smelled like mold. And there was only one lady working rush hour for lunch. She was doing phone orders, take out orders for the people in line as well as ringing them up, and serving the guests at the tables with drinks and food. I'm all for saving money but it was a very poor business model and customers were suffering. And for why? The food was terrible.
