“Walking in on a Thursday early dinner 5 o clock hour and it was completely empty, soon after it was popping though but from what I observed, everyone was taken care of right away. Happy with the portions plated, the Bahn mi bread was great! Not so chewy, crispy and yummy. Contents in the sandwich was well spread too, I liked adding the papaya salad into the sandwich... the more the merrier. Would come again!“
“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. :)“
“We love pho so we have been trying to find a new place after being here for over 20 years. Think we found it! The broth is the big sell point and it was delish. Exactly what we were looking for. Even the blanched veggies were perfect. We had the oxtail, chicken & veggie, and meatball pho.“
“There are some free parking spots behind the restaurant. The menu has a huge section and I got a combo of spring rolls, pho and a drink for less than 20 dollars!! The food protein was satisfying, I even took the leftover home as a second meal.Everything was really fresh and delicious!! The lemonade was probably the best one I've ever had! It's homemade freshly juiced lemonade!!If you love spicy food, definitely try the chili sauce they put on the table!! It's so flavorful and really hits the spot!This cute family style restaurant is really clean and the staff was really nice, the combo comes with coffee or tea but I couldn't have caffeine so they gave me the lemonade instead which was really sweet of them!I will definitely return and try out more items next time!!“
“I am blown away this place was great! When I go to Vietnamese restaurants I susally order the beef combination pho with no tendon. But this place already had it on the menu without tendon! The flavor is all there with their dishes & they have a special lemongrass dipping sauce. They give with all your orders, so good!!“
“This place is awesome. Staff was super friendly and welcoming. The Pho has a slightly sweet flavor, but it's delicious; cooked for 16 hours and is well worth the money. (Not too expensive. Veggie and tofu spring rolls were awesome, too.Vegetarian options: Veggie and tofu pho, veggie n' tofu spring rolls, Veggie vermicelli.Kid-friendliness: Didn't complain about my kid wanting white rice separately and being picky about other stuff.“
“First time at this restaurant. The inside was quite plain, but when the food hit the table, I understood what the fuss about this place was. My wife got the chicken Pho and I got the BBQ chicken/ spring roll vermicelli. Super fresh and delicious. Pricing was fair.“
“Favorite pho place on the island. Friendly staff with timely service. We’re always satisfied when we come here. I love the tofu pho with a side of meatball and a piece of French bread with their housemade butter. The chili garlic dipping sauce is also my all time favorite!“
“Was visiting from the Big Island and starving. our friend Troy told us to come here and we are so great full. the service was great the food even better. we had bbq pork sandwich and fried spring rolls. both were great. wishing we had a another sandwich cuz they were so fresh and the bread has the right amount of crunch.“
“I have to say that this is one of my favorite places on the west side of Oahu for Pho, Tofu Pad Thai, Lemon grass tofu sandwich and Shrimp Papaya salad. The food, price, and service are all great. Everything is tasty, affordably priced, and quick friendly service. Menu is decent sized with a variety of dishes with the usual classic Vietnamese dishes and boba drinks. I normally go for the Shrimp Papaya Salad. It's a healthy and fresh menu item. Other tables around me seem to be ordering Pho. Pho appears large and generously filled with lots of veggies and meats. By the size of them, you will not leave hungry. Parking is convenient and free as it's located in the Foodland Shopping center. The restaurant is quiet and small to where you can have a conversation. Definitely will be back and recommend this place.“
“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 came to this place three days in a row because the food was really good! The portions were big, compared to most places in Honolulu, definitely worth the price. My favorite was the papaya salad, so filling and just delicious, the pad Thai had the best tofu I’ve ever had, and the chai tea was amazing! Staff is friendly, I would recommend this place to anyone that comes to Honolulu! Location is a bit hidden but the food is worth it!“
“Food is really awesome, so takeout will be fine, but service is severely lacking. There was no checking in on tables happens when its busy i guess? Only seemed to be 2 people working the whole floor, so I get it. However, what made me go 4 stars was thr fact that my friends and i stood at the register to pay for about maybe 8 minutes before being acknowledged or asked to wait even tho we did so patiently. The workers were, however, fighting over something, answering phones and processing other payments from cards that came AFTER we were already waiting at the cash register. They really need to get it together if they want repeat customers dining in.Vegetarian options: Looks like a lot of tofu options. Not sure on availability to omit fish sauce.Parking: Shared area with like 7 other places in close proximity.“
“My 3yr old loves this place. Not only affordable and budget friendly, they are delicious. Portion is bigger compared to pricier pho restaurant. We usually needed to get extra noodles in the past but here was not necessary. But I think on our next visits, we would need to order extra as our little is getting bigger. We would get 2 large portions and share broth and meat with our little.“
“This is the best place for pho & banh mi on the west side 100%. The pho broth is so rich & flavorful, banh mi baguette is perfectly crispy, yet soft with amazing fillings of bbq flavors & crispy veggies. They also give you a side of broth, which is a nice touch. I’ve tried so many Vietnamese spots on the west side, and this place is hands down the best Vietnamese restaurant. Truly a hidden gem.“
“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.“
“Soooo deliciouso, I got on Uber eats, good price and good quality! Was ready very quick and they accommodated extra siracha and hoisin sauce for no extra fee which was very nice. Sooo give it a go, I only got the vegetable pho but rare beef on the side so idk about all the other things on the menu but the pho was very good!! I'll order again if I'm ever wanting some pho again“
“Located at Sand island just off the Mauka bound at the Diamond head side of Sand Island access road, here is this little shop with a few tables inside, I want a Vietnamese sandwich and I call to placed my order, friendly staff, sandwich ready I just 5 to 10 minutes. The sandwich is well packaged and they accept credit card payment even for just a sandwich. There are a lot of Vietnamese restaurants in the area but lot of them do not offer sandwiches any more. There is not much parking in front of the restaurant so you may have to wait for the parking.“
“I like to go here to get the Special Vietnamese Sandwich also called the Banh Mi Dac Biet. I get it with Jalapeños in the juice and pour the juice right into the sandwich if you want the extra kick. My top 2 places I go to get a special combo sandwich Hooghly recommended! I wish this place was open longer but they open early and close at 2pm. So if your flying in or local stop by an try the sandwich highly recommended!“
“Me: Y’all got hot tea?Them: No hot tea.Me: Y’all ain’t got no hot tea?Them: No we fresh out hot tea.Me: You have no tea left?Them: NoMe: Okay, not hot tea then. ✌️-They had hella good music bumping in the back tho.Great food, I’d come back for more, and hopefully some tea next time.“
“FYI, they close at 8:00!!! Best spicy beef soup in Aiea! Bun Bo hue is always consistent and soooo delicious. The pork chops are also my favorite with such a good lemongrass flavor. Plus the sauce they put on the side is so good with it. The people there are so nice, I love giving them business. I go at least once a month.“
“Authentic, real Vietnamese food. Best broths in town! Pho is outstanding and with lots of Vietnamese-street options. Love this place! They also cater private parties - talk to Ria, she will hook you up! Check out their other location as well - dynamite:“
“Great corner restaurant, good neighborhood feel. We order from here at least monthly, and we always have prompt, courteous service. The food (especially the pho) is delicious!Parking: Immediately in front of the restaurant. I've always been able to park there with three or four open spaces around.“
“This location so super convenient, given the fact that they are located in Don Quijote's food court area. It's a place that I mostly go to after doing some grocery shopping, when my hunger starts to kick in. There's something about Bale's Banh Mi sandwiches that always hits the spot. Regardless of the protein, the flavors are all consistent and portioned. Aside from that, their spring rolls or lumpia are always warm and has the crunch to it. My favorite sandwiches are the lemongrass chicken or the roast beef on croissant bread. I love how its a family business and the husband and wife work together o complete the orders. Sometimes they can get super busy but it is definitely worth the wait. It just goes to show how good their food is.“
