I came here for the first time in four years this year.Surprisingly, Mr. Wang retired last year...There is a cheerful Japanese man in his place, but it would definitely be better if he was a little more friendly!Too fussy.Steamed shrimp and spring rolls remain the same.However, this time, the teppanyaki beef pepper grill and beef and broccoli (katayaki version) were delicious.-2017 May-Mr. King!thank you as always! !

The price is expensive and an 18% tip is included in the bill. LOL. Don't go. It doesn't feel good.

Probably the best Cantonese Roasted Duck on island, the skin is really crispy and tasty tho a bit greasy. But the thicken sauce in the spinach with scallops was crazy too thick, like jelly...Not good at all. Everything I ordered was very salty. The layout and the environment are quite old fashioned. 3⭐ is for the duck only.

I got the duck and it was 60% bone and fat. It was very tough and on top of that I found a hair in it. Not sure if I just ordered the wrong thing but I wouldn't go back.

Worst restaurant I’ve been to so far. Don’t usually leave reviews unless it’s really good or really bad. This time it’s really bad. Service was horrible. 2 items came out super late. We asked about it a few times they kept saying it was busy but by that time half the restaurant was empty already. For the price I would not go back. We ordered 6 entree's, 3 bowls of soup and the 2 things we ordered first before everything else didn’t come out till after we asked multiple times. We paid over 250$ for everything. Honestly we went down the street a couple days later to Stix Asia and paid 150$ for 5 bowls of pho and it was way better. Would not recommend.

That great crab dish hasn't changed in decades. Exactly as it was when they were in Mo'ili'ili.Parking: If you park in the Hyatt garage, those turns are unusually tight even by Waikiki standards.

We came on Chinese New Year's Eve. It was surprisingly not fully seated. The Peking duck was very good and it came with 6 wraps with veggies and duck meat. The Yum tum soup only came with three dumplings and the meat was too hard to chew. We ordered the seafood noodles with soft made noodles but they stuck together.

You probably want to make a reservation if you want to dine here. It's a very fast paced environment with a moderate to loud noise level. The service was good but the food for us was mediocre at best . We only got a couple of dishes: Kung pao chicken (spicy) and Mongolian beef (spicy).

Found this place on accident, turned out to be a very pleasant accident! Food was plentiful at a decent price and it tasted fresh. Only thing I didn't like was all the onions in the beef fried rice but besides that, this place was awesome.
