Yellow curry
Amanda K.

This place is our go to spot. Love that they are open so late and man are they busy a lot of the time. Probably because they are the only place open so late. The way you order inside is by writing down what you want on a post it and handing it to the guy. We usually call our order in because it gets so busy. Anytime we are craving pho we always come here and it hits the spot every time. The chicken wings are the BOMB and are a must. Spring rolls are fat and filled with meat so good. The pad thai is a bit saucey and sweet but still good. The BBQ chicken is more like char sui. The man that works there is always so sweet.

Summer rolls!

Always consistently delicious; crispy spring rolls, and fresh summer rolls... I've tried their pad thai, lemongrass Tofu vermicelli, and my boyfriend loves their lemongrass chicken vermicelli plate ... I have been loving their tofu bahn mi sandwich recently. They are very kind people. They have wonderful tapioca puddings too. The one we have tried has big chunks of taro in it!! I love it here!!

I absolutely love this place! Everything I've tried, I loved! Their pho tastes like it was made with love! Their bun bo hue, bun rieu,lemon beef salad- all bomb. And don't skip on their chicken wings... best ones on the island in my humble opinion. They even do vegetarian dishes amazingly... their veggie pho is good and their eggplant mushroom tofu stir fry, I could drink the sauce it's so good! Even their tapioca is good! I like how it's a family run business. This place needs to stay open forever!

Check out my photos for updated pictures of the actual sign for the restaurant. On my first visit, I had difficulty finding the restaurant. I had searched previous Yelp photos of the establishment, so I was on the lookout for specific signage, but it does not look like that anymore. Service is friendly. Everything is take out only and prices are affordable. They do not accept American Express.

I Heart Aloha Vietnamese Foods! What a lifesaver! I had just finished working First Friday, and I was hot, dirty, and hungry. I didn't want to sit down and eat, and Zippy's was not appealing but a big bowl of pho was what I really wanted. Yelp "late night bites" and Aloha came up. Tucked away in an unassuming spot, it's take out only, which is great! Ordered #19 brisket and sirloin, XL! and #3 summer rolls. Couldn't wait to get back to my hotel. Everything was soooooo good and hit the spot! I am so glad there's places like this open late for takeout! Mahalo!

I always wanted to try here for lunch, but it was closed and only open for dinner. One day I sat in my car for a while after shopping thinking what I should get for dinner. It finally dawned on me that I've been wanting to try Aloha Vietnamese Foods' Fried chicken wings. My work friend would raved how her and boyfriend just love their crispy fried chicken wings and they liked it the best so it definitely piqued my interest. Asked Jolene L. and her daughter when we were dining at Pho Dynasty where else had good pho and her daughter mentioned Aloha Vietnamese. Jolene L. also mentioned how she liked their Fried chicken wings and the Lemon beef salad too! So Fried Chicken Wings and the Lemon Beef Salad it is! When I've arrived and was waiting, I decided to get the grilled pork sandwich too! I planned to share with mom, since she loves Vietnamese sandwiches. I saw the boiled peanuts sign and I couldn't resist buying a bag too! The boiled peanuts were simple and it seems to had a little salt taste. It was on the softer side than what I'm use to and usually like it a little on the crunchier side. It was a good price. The grilled pork sandwich was good but the crusty bread may make it difficult to bite into. My mom ate it later so I suggested to microwave it a bit. I did love the fried chicken wings and beef salad . I must say, they were right. The chicken was really crispy and not too oily with a good taste. It came with a container of salt and pepper and it could be a very thin layer of butter underneath? Their beef salad was delicious! Aloha Vietnamese Foods is open only for take out and for dinner. I read its own by a husband and wife. Wife does there cooking in the back and husband mentioned to me that before covid his wife had a health issue and they started to open later and later and now only for dinner. The husband who helped me was working so hard taking phone orders and calling them back when it's ready. So grateful they are still open so we can still get their yummy fried chicken wings and beef salad! Just read Peter Y's review and now I want to try the Casserole Pot Pork Belly & Beef Stew! Thank you! Support a local!

My new favorite pho place. Per chance we just happened to visit place as we were yelping the dessert shop next door. We were hungry and decided to try the food due to the large number of high yelp reviews. First off..there is no in door dining. Order your food and wait 15 minutes outside. The owner is very friendly and nice. The inside of the shop is basic however the smell of the soup permeates the store. We ordered beef pho and crispy spring rolls. The beef pho was hearty. The soup unexplainably rich and tasty. The offering was ample. The meats and vegetables all in one dish was so filling! The spring rolls were crispy. There was more than enough for my little family. Will definitely return! Looking forward to our next trip!!!

Hahahahah!!! I just realized I've been here a few times and have NEVER taken a picture of the food :-/ OMG! That's a super über rare thing as even if I do start before my phone I somehow capture it but something must've been in the noodles cause my hangry mood kicked it into a trance mode and I have no proof of my bliss. Located in Old Stadium Square parking is the biggest challenge as other businesses it shares with vs stall are sadly off kilter. Sadly and probably at its convenience it's take out only and has kept it's covid system exactly as is, no seating whatsoever with very minimalist decor it is best to call ahead since everything is made to order and does take awhile but is so worth the wait. Absolutely friendly staff always ready for any questions and are patient, as I do always get something veggie here he makes sure if egg or other items typically comes with the dish is acceptable for me which is great as I do have allergies and clarity is always gratefully appreciated. I always get the Pad Thai which isn't they dry type and is a bit more saucy but is just on point and delicious always...they do have a lot of signage which may seem extreme but knowledge is a wonderful thing and it's who doesn't like something that's freshly made. You know I gotta go back to show what keeps me coming back besides having some great late night hours (5pm to midnight) and are closed on Thursdays and I promise to let my phone eat first...lmao! Thank you!

Does the Banh Mi include pate?

Not 100% sure. But they are pretty legit as far as authentic Vietnamese food. This is not any fusion to adapt to a non traditional pallet. Chances are its yes.

Do they accept apple pay?

Yes!

Are they open for dining in now, or only takeout?

Takeout only.

Is the joint closed for renovations at the moment?

I don't know what they are closed for but they are closed for a long time..Sign on door says July-Oct. I looked in around noon time and saw no one but the 2 big A/Cs were on????

The only reason why it's not gettin a 1 is because the Ambiance and food was decent. The server barely paid any attention to us from coming in to leaving. While taking our order I asked for a coke and she just walked away. Normally servers ask for anything else or is that all.... Just took our order and left mid conversation. The pho came out good, but the chicken wings had 0 flavor to it. It was suppose to be garlic butter sauce but tasted more like fryer oil then anything. Food was a 3/5. Upon finishing our food we asked for a take out container and the server said she'll get one. 5 mins went by and nothing. I went to pay at the register and asked for one there. Went and sat back down to pack up the wings to give to someone on the street. As we're sitting, I noticed one of the servers taking pictures of us from the counter. Didn't try to hide or anything. Just to make sure I moved around my head to see if she'd move and every time I moved my head she turned the camera. The same server who we asked for a take out container came up to our table and said I need to pay again because payment didn't go through. Mind you I paid cash. I then stated Oh? I paid cash? How does cash not go through? She said oh, then asked the guy who rang me up and not even an apology or anything. The whole service there was rude and just crazy. I just left and won't be coming back to this place for sure. Not authentic Viet food or service.

Thought I'd write a review before they move their restaurant to the Kaimuki area. August 30, 2025,…read morei believed is their last day serving in Chinatown. I heard they will keep this space for special events. The restaurant is quite busy and I'm glad we had reservations. Good thing I was there prior to lunch hour opening, otherwise we may lose our reservations since the person who made reservations tends to be habitual in arriving late. We dined in May, but it's been awhile since I first dined here. I preferred dining in Chinatown during lunch time than at dinner. Our waiter was really nice and helpful. I forgot his name, but I remembered that his eyeglasses that he wore was cool/funny, since the frames for each eye didn't match the other eye! lol. Funny it wasn't me who first noticed it. One was square frame and the other was a round frame! The restaurant doesn't do anything special for birthdays except may write Happy Birthday in chocolate on the dessert plate that you purchase for the birthday person. Their desserts are unique and refreshing. I think there are some rotating desserts /flavors like their seasonal menu for their main menu. I guess you can always keep coming back without being bored of the menu! I was bummed to see a previous dish posted of a pasta that I wanted to try that wasn't on the current spring seasonal menu! When we dined for brunch over the weekend, I was able to get the Hainan chicken with the crispy roast pork combo. It was very filling , tasty and satisfying. I do love ginger sauce on the cold ginger chicken but sometimes the chicken is just okay. This Hainan chicken was really good and the chicken was really moist! I thought it was the best I've tried! It was good that I wanted to takeout one last time in August before they moved! No more the 50/50 combo with the crispy roast pork on the lunch menu during the weekday. It was on the spring menu. Of course it's best to eat it in the restaurant than for take out. Bathroom is a must for me when dining out and they had only one shared bathroom for everyone! There was a guy who tried to make several attempts but wasn't successful, since there was always someone in the restroom. I'm glad the waiter told me there was a bigger separate bathroom with several stalls for men and ladies upstairs. You go straight through the kitchen to catch the elevator and to another kitchen /storage area! Thank Goodness! Best wishes at your new location. You offer yummy and tasty food!

I had Vermicelli Cold Noodle with spring roll and pork (Bun Thit Nuong Cha Gio, $19.50), Number 17 at our favorite place on Smith and Hotel Streets. Another chose Chicken Pho (Mien Ga, $17.75) while the third tried the Vietnamese Beef Stew (Bo Kho, $19.75). We split a Classic Combo Banh Mi ($15.50). My vermicelli dish was fine, on par with the one at P** V******, but maybe not as good as the one at K*** V********* C******. I didn't hear any complaints about the Mien Ga. The Beef Stew was petite but came with two large pieces of toasted baguette. I was disappointed in the banh mi ... the baguette felt stale and there weren't enough pickled vegetables (do chua) and cilantro for me. I can get a better banh mi for $11 elsewhere. What did I think? The food was okay, but we could get comparable dishes for less money at three places in Chinatown. I was hoping for more ... As such, a rating of 3.75. Postscript: The co-worker that ate the beef stew suffered from intestinal distress for the remainder of the afternoon. He was the only one to use the raw basil and bean sprouts.

Toasted mini baguette -- served whole...must request a knife then slice it yourself. Fried chicken wings -- on hh selection. Flavorful, very big, not the crispy type. Side order vegetables and broth -- is not veggies in their lemongrass broth.... .

The restaurant is on the smaller side, so it may not be able to accommodate larger groups. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. As someone who loves noodle soup, I appreciate being able to enjoy such a satisfying meal while knowing it's entirely plant-based. I'll definitely be back!

While the servers were nice, we did order ahead of time and showed up when the Beluga app (where we ordered off of) told us to show up, but I ended up waiting 15 minutes at the restaurant later than I was supposed to get my food. Additionally, the staff seemed to forget I was sitting/waiting for my food. My suspicion is that the online ordering service isn't actively monitored and our order wasn't started until I actually showed up to the restaurant to pick up our food at the designated time. The food was okay for us. I'm a big Banh Mi fan and was looking forward to eating their Combination Banh Mi, but unfortunately the Banh Mi seemed a little rushed in preparation and lacked flavor. My husband on the other hand, ordered their Combination Pho and it absolutely did not disappoint. Although their Banh Mi was not as delicious and flavorful as I expected, their Pho was the exact opposite of that. They give you a generous amount of broth and their portions of greens was beyond enough (maybe a little bit too much for one serving). The last food item to talk about are their Spring Rolls. It wasn't anything too special compared to your usual Spring Rolls, but I will say that their dipping sauce and everything else that comes with it (rice noodles, cucumbers, cabbage, carrots) made it so that you could easily make it a meal vice an appetizer. If you're looking for a cozy place to have dinner, their space was a bit crowded but if you're okay with then this place is good. Just be warned that their prices are a little bit on the higher side in my opinion and be prepared for long wait times to receive your order.
