    Steamed rice noodle w/ won tons (peanut butter sauce)
    Jo Y.

    Chef Bo and her husband, Jeffrey, started her business called Bo's Ktichen, with passion for cooking at the Ohana Hale Marketplace in Honolulu on Oct. 2018 with a tiny booth and small menu, making Cantonese =comfort food, handmade dumplings, and noodle soups. In May 2021, a 2nd location was started at Pearlridge Shopping Center, but both locations closed due to building contracts. In May 2022, Bo found a spot on So. Beretania St, which is its current location, and with time and experience, its menu was expanded. Family-owned Bo's Kitchen's popular dishes include beef chow fun, Hainanese chicken rice, dumplings, and won ton noodle soups. It makes its chicken noodle broth from scratch, and its beef brisket is braised for five hours. We've tried these and agree that Chef Bo has done her best in offering her best dishes, and many are exactly how my mother used to make her won ton dumplings and variations. Until one day, I asked Chef Bo what she recommended as another dish that I try. She mentioned dumplings with a "peanut sauce" that had a sweet peanut, satah, hoi sin sauce blend on won tons and noodles. Yes, I tried it, and nope, could not finish it. Peanut butter sauce on won tons? Nope, you can't convince me that I'm missing out on something, because I'm not. Yes, something different, but not for me. The peanut sauce is sweet, rich, and savory. Chef Bo and Jeremy are very friendly owners who are willing to please. They will take time out to talk to you to get feedback. The small cozy restaura nt is bright and clean. Hours of operation are Mon to Sat 8:30a to 10:30p and Sun 10a to 9p. Free parking available in private lot that is shared with other businesses. We wish Chef Bo and Jeremy continued success in their family restaurant! We will return to try the many dishes of their menu. Support local!

    We've ordered take out from Bo's many times, but it's usually been their noodles and soup dishes. After babysitting my granddaughter, we were too tired (lazy) to cook, so my daughter ordered delivery. I opted to try the Beef Brisket with rice plate, while my daughter ordered her usual noodle soup with side orders of chicken dumplings and garlic beans. The food arrived fairly quickly and it was all still hot. The flavor of the brisket was very similar to pork kau yuk, with the slight star anise flavor. It was meaty and delicious, but I wished it was a bit more saucy. The green beans were cooked perfectly and the garlic flavor was fairly mild, and not overpowering. The dumplings were most and tender inside, with a slight chew to the wrapper; very delicious. Good, tasty Chinese food at reasonable prices.

    This place surprised me when I got the won ton mein to go. Huge won tons, and great amount of noodles, that were still crunchy like the traditional version. Add some chili and you are good to go! They have an assortment of Chinese dishes to try, and I can't wait to go back. Maybe braised beef next time!

    Beef brisket w/ rice

    Our 2nd trip to Bo's kitchen Here for a quick early dinner so parking wasn't a problem! Lots of seating available too. Ordered the beef brisket with rice- really tasty and beef really tender. We loved this dish - at 1st seeing the dish served with lettuce was a bit off put but it really was a nice addition. Will order it again Fried beef noodles- good but a bit too much sauce but the large pieces of beef was tasty and tender. Servers are really nice and we enjoyed our meal. We'll return soon to try more menu items. Their dumplings are excellent and can't wait to have it again!

    Today, 04/20/26, I wanted to eat at Bo's Kitchen. This isn't my first visit. I have been here on several occasions and I enjoy the chicken jook. I even ordered take out of a small chicken jook to bring to my hospitalized family member. For our lunch, we ordered spring rolls, black bean beef chow fun and sesame balls. The chow fun came out first. It was hot and covered with too much black bean sauce, hence it was salty. The beef was tender but the sauce over powered the dish. 3/5 stars Then came the spring rolls and the sesame balls. The sesame balls were very hot but not fresh. Maybe it was previously frozen? The dough was oddly dry and not chewy. The black bean filling was alright. 3/5 stars Now onto the terrible spring rolls! Look at the photo and you decide what I nearly bit into! Ugh. 0/5 stars. An employee in the back of the kitchen area came forward when I approached our server with the dish. The employee (not our server) attempted to persuade me that it was either a bean or a piece of chili. She even squished it between her fingers to say it was soft. Yuck! No thank you. I had already taken a picture of the spring roll and asked Google what it was. I included Google's finding. She was concerned that I had a picture of it. I even let her take a screenshot of the picture and I showed her the Google results. Still she said it wasn't a bug. I leave the decision to our readers. Pictures are worth a thousand words. Restaurant seating area ambiance is pretty clean ( I did not see the kitchen) and interestingly the restaurant has jewelry for sale. Simple tables and chairs for patrons. Service was great until the spring rolls incident. And it didn't help that the employee kept denying that it was a bug. At least the restaurant did not charge us for the spring rolls. But now, I'm not sure I'll return again. I think if the restaurant had immediately acknowledged the situation, I would've been able to maybe accept this as a one time thing. But the employee's attitude and continued denial of anything wrong took this to another level. Service 1/5 stars. Limited free parking.

    Unpretentious, bordering on "hole-in-the-wall" vibes but oh man the food is seriously DELICIOUS!! . Been three times this week and I'm still just getting started with their range of noodle and dumpling soups. Portions are generous, and every dish is hearty with depth of flavor. They clearly do a strong takeout business, too. People were constantly coming in to pick up food. Prices are fair for what you get. Parking is limited up front, but there's plenty of street parking nearby. Happy Eating!! 41

    Bo's Kitchen is a great spot for comforting, flavorful local-style meals. Their Hainan chicken rice is only $15, and the portion is generous definitely a lot of food for the price. The chicken is tender and juicy, paired perfectly with fragrant rice and tasty sauces that bring everything together. Everything feels simple but really satisfying, and you can tell the focus is on good value and comforting flavors rather than anything overly fancy. It's the kind of place you leave feeling full and happy. A solid go-to if you're craving Hainan chicken rice that hits the spot without breaking the bank.

    Tossed noodles with won ton
    Naomi I.

    I miss being able to eat their noodles since they moved out of Pearlridge several years ago. We were in town and I was craving their skinny noodles so we stopped by for lunch on a Friday. There is a small lot of about 6 stalls on Beretania and unfortunately for us, they were all full. We drove to the back and there is a much bigger lot off of Kinau St. They have so many choices of noodles and rice dishes and I had a hard time deciding between soupy noodles or dry noodles. I went with the tossed noodles with won ton. It came out pretty quick and it was delicious! I like spicy food, so I added some of their chili oil and that made it so much better for me. My husband got the chicken with black bean tossed noodles. There were alot of chicken pieces in it along with some slivers of round onion. I didn't taste it, but he said some of the chicken pieces were hard. They left a pitcher of iced water on our table. Once our food came, they never came to check on us at all, which was fine since we didn't need anything. It would've been a different story if we needed something. We finished our lunch and went to pay at the counter. The egg tarts looked good so we got 2 of them: OMG they were so good! It wasn't the usual bready pie crust. The egg custard was on a super flaky, buttery crust. It was 10/10. I would definitely return when I have a craving for their yummy skinny noodles.

    Bo's kitchen is conveniently located on S. Beretania street across of the Honolulu police station. Parking is limited in front of the restaurant but there's more parking in the back on the 2nd floor but you would have to drive around the block to get to it. We frequent this place often and today we just came here for a quick bite and got the garlic fried chicken wings, pork hash, and egg tarts... they were all so good! Staff and service are always great!

    Cucumber salad with jellyfish
    Kanani C.

    Tried Bo's Kitchen after hearing many good reviews. Tried them when they were at Ohana Marketplace and wasnt too impressed, as I witnessed their cooking was via microwave. I was happy that their restaurant had late hours. Service was great, even though there was only 1 lady working; we went late so it was fine. Food came out fast. Prices were reasonable but dishes were on the saltier side (use of saltier sauces) and simplistic. Funn with mixed sauce and wonton - interesting combo with the peanut and hoisin (?l) sauce. Decent wonton. Could use less hoisin sauce. Fried buns with condensed milk - always yummy. Needs more condensed milk though. Green onion pancakes - decent but slightly greasy and not enough flavor. Sauce was a little odd. Cucumber salad with jellyfish - sauce was salty. Actually good if you shake off the excess (black) sauce. Garlic green bean - super salty sauce. Nice crunch though. Tofu salad - yummy! Love that the tofu is seasoned. Will be back if looking for late night, simple eats.

    Won ton soup (no noodles) 12 won tons, in a savory soup!
    Karen S.

    Stormy rainy days call for won ton soup, and their won tons and dumplings are handmade! Friends had the mapo tofu noodles, won ton with mixed noodles, and the funn with peanut sauce. Everyone enjoyed their food, and the staff gave us the mini Jin dui for dessert. Sadly, they had sold out of the egg tarts already! Brightly lit, with clean, spacious tables, loved my frequent water refills (thank you!), (and they provide keys to the restrooms upstairs), plus handmade shrimp chips, and even jewelry for sale! They also have laksa specials. Condiments are self serve along the service desk. Lots of walk ins and take out orders, the phone was ringing non stop!

    Char siu noodle soup
    Antoinette C.

    I never dined in here, but I did order delivery twice in less than a week through doordash. Both times the food came nicely packed, well organized, and hot. The first time I've ordered almost a week ago was the pork hash, garlic green beans, mabo tofu with noodles, rice noodle and dumplings, and a pork belly dish with rice (can't remember the name). My favorite has to be the rice noodle cake with dumplings. It had peanut sauce and even reheating it on the stove made it satisfying to eat as leftovers. Each dish had between 6-8 pork and shrimp dumplings. The portions are generous which is enough for two meals. The pork hash came in 3s with the hot mustard and shoyu. Again these were good as well and not as oily and greasy. The pork belly was stringy and the rice was meh. It tries way too hard to copy Tom Khem which is a Laos dish. My mom had the tofu dish and after a while she did mention that the noodles got mushy and had no flavor. Then again she had to take a blood test so she had to watch her salt intake. I also tried the tofu and it was soft and not overly salty. The second time I ordered which was today, I replaced the rice dish with the char siu noodle soup and it was so good. It was the right portion size and the hot broth that's separate from the contents help soften the noodles. I also ordered coconut pudding and even though I have yet to try it, my mom said it was really good so I'm looking forward to it. Edit: I have now tried the coconut pudding and it was a generous portion. A nice refreshing and cold treat especially since we are now in the summer season. There is just a hint of coconut flavor though and shredded coconut flakes don't exist but it's still worth eating as a dessert or a snack. On both orders, I've ordered garlic green beans and it was the best tasting garlicky green beans I have ever tried. Overall, this place does serve good food but I'll probably skip the rice dishes and focus more on the noodle dishes and their sides.

It's tucked into the corner of Market City Shopping Center next to Earl Sandwich Shop. The main parking lot gets busy, but there's parking in the back, too. We had a 7:45 p.m. reservation on a busy Friday night and were seated shortly after our reservation time. Once we sat down, service was great. We got water right away, and our food came out fast and hot. The shrimp chips tasted freshly made--warm, light, and so crispy. The salted egg yolk fried chicken was juicy inside with a crispy coating. The green beans with minced meat had just a little kick without being too spicy. The beef fried rice was good, though I expected a bit more flavor. But the crab curry stole the show. The crab was cooked perfectly, and the curry was packed with wonderful spices and flavor. I'd buy a container of just that curry if I could! Definitely make a reservation if you can. Walk-ins are welcome, and there's a sign-in sheet, but you may have to wait.

I arrived at noon and was very lucky to find a metered parking spot across from the restaurant on the very first try - As I entered I noticed that the room was very crowded and that here was only ONE open table so I sat down immediately and ordered the "Won Ton Mein" as the waitress approached me with a menu - I have to note that although this restaurant was located inside of a very old building the interior was a very sharp contrast - Everything appeared fresh and modern with very basic hand built picnic type bench seating and dining tables constructed of varnished raw wood (very spartan but practical and comfortable) - The bowl of soup was of average size and appeared very sparse with not much color - There was "NO" Pork Char Sui slices, only steaming hot clear chicken broth, a clump of thin Vermicelli white opaque noodles accompanied with a few small pieces of both chopped Mustard, Napa Cabbages and slivers of Green Onions - Extremely simple and basic. There were exactly "4" individual Won Ton that were filled with a tiny chunk of SHRIMP mixed into minced PORK HASH and regular spices (basic Soy sauce and Sesame Oil) - The "won ton PI" was very thin and light and the saimin noodles were made of the same Rice Flour mixture also - The broth was hot and savory but nothing special only because it was so "bland" to the taste. Although the restaurant was crowded to its Maximum Capacity within 15 minutes of my arrival it had practically "emptied itself out" with only myself a one other table of 6-dinners getting their food too. I will probably return to eat at this restaurant if and when I get another pressing urge to satisfy one of my insatiable cravings to drive all across Oahu from EWA Beach to Chinatown in the city of Honolulu . The "PLUS" about this visit is that it was clean and the service was average but not disappointingly "long" despite how busy and crowded the entire restaurant was when I first arrived

I'm usually a 20 percent tipper, I respect wait staff and genuinely respect what they do. We are great patrons of every restaurant and all of my reviews have shown my appreciation of them. Doing this is deceptive, do yourself a favor, when having lunch, or dinner, check your tip portion of the receipt and be sure that they don't add in their own tip and total. Ken was the server's name. I had them reprint the ticket at that time.

    First morning on Oahu and we wanted dim sum. While we had plenty of people telling us that dim sum…read moreon Oahu wasn't ideal, I was quite impressed. We had originally had a different place in mind but our good friend recommended this place instead. Apparently this is the perfect spot for all your Chinese eats. With plenty of space and large tables for banquet style meals, I can see why people come here. And the dim sum selection is generous. We had so many great bites that I can't even tell you which one was my favorite. All I know is that I'm glad this place is inside such a large shopping center because we definitely needed to burn off some calories afterwards.

We were seated promptly when we arrived late afternoon and were reminded a few times to get our order in before 4:30 if we wanted dim sum. We ordered a number of items which came in quantities of 3 pieces in most cases. So we had to double up on orders since there were 4 of us. We also ordered beef chow fun with black bean sauce. Food was ok and service was courteous. The restaurant could use some maintenance and bathroom needs to be cleaned.

    I was recently invited to attend a dinner for my part time job where I wasn't really keen to…read morepartake but was heavily persuaded to join them at King Restaurant & Bar (KRB) where I gave in. What a blessing that was as I was impressed with the food quality and attention to detail. There were many star dishes that impressed me and luckily had the honor to pack up the leftovers which I ended up sharing with family. They raved over the food from KRB, so I suggested we come here for dinner. To play it safe I called ahead and made a reservation for a round table as I tend to order an array of different dishes. To our surprise, KRB wasn't busy that weekday evening with both private dining rooms occupied and only one other table of 4 during our arrival. I asked the family what they wanted to eat and because they are big eaters who also enjoy leftovers, our initial food order consisted of 9 different dishes that included doubling up both noodle orders. Overall, our meal was above average with family favorites of tofu casserole that was so delicious that I ended up getting another one. The seafood crispy noodles were also phenomenal as it was executed well with great texture contrast and finesse in flavors. Personally I enjoyed the free range chicken with ginger onion sauce and the sautéed lamb with leeks. We also appreciated the complimentary dessert of chilled coconut milk tapioca. Service was above average as the staff were attentive to our needs and exchanged plates halfway during our dinner. The only setback for me was the ambiance as it was semi dark and dingy. The interior could use an upgrade. Recent returned visits to KRB is truly deserving of 5-stars from me. The food exceeded my expectations where it was worthy to drag my family here and have concluded KRB is deserving to be included in our rotation of restaurants to patronize.

    We had our group luncheon there in a private room and the service is always great!…read more Sorry no pictures I cannot add anymore pictures to this page. We had the Chinese chicken salad with jellyfish, Mix seafood cake noodles, beef broccoli, crispy chicken, mixed pork with green beans, steamed fish fillets and rice The Chinese chicken salad was different with the jellyfish. It was tasty and with the jellyfish it had a nice chewy crunch. That is a first normally it has crispy wonton strips. The mixed pork with green beans is always a hit, everyone love the flavor and tasty of this fish. The beef broccoli was good with tender beef slices and fresh broccoli. The mix seafood cake noodles was also good and everyone enjoyed the noodles. The steamed fish fillet was with a shoyu and ginger sauce which was very moist and delicious. The crispy chicken this time seems like they used a malnourished chicken it hardly had meat and was mostly bones.

    Lunch in Honolulu, Hawaii…read more.. I asked my sister what she wanted to eat for her birthday: Dimsum! I suggested that we go to this new location of Kapiolani Seafood Restaurant. She agreed! The covered parking lot is free! Just follow the signs and park in the designated numbered stalls. Inside, it was crowded and noisy! I wrote our name on the list and got called quickly! My sister wrote our order on the menu: shrimp dumplings, seaweed roll, deep fried taro puffs, shrimp and chive dumplings, mochi rice, pork-filled deep fried mochi, and custard tarts. Later, we added on an order of house noodles... they were thin, crisp, and tasty! Everything was delicious and beautifully presented! Service was efficient! There were different people delivering baskets and plates to our table. They just crossed off menu items on the printed list as they arrived. My sister and her husband were really happy with this meal! I was, too! Note: i even took home the leftover noodles! Yay!

    We had been to Kapiolani Seafood Restaurant several times at its old location across from Ala Moana…read moreMall, and it used to be a five-star place for us. The new location is only about a block away, with a much nicer, newer interior. Unfortunately, the food seems to have changed much more than the address We ordered four dishes: mochi rice, pork buns, siu mai, and chicken feet. Almost everything arrived cooler than it should have. The chicken feet and siu mai were warm rather than hot, while the pork buns were closer to cold. More importantly, it wasn't just a temperature problem. The chicken feet in particular tasted noticeably worse than before, lacking the flavors and spices we remembered. The mochi rice was the most normal of the four, but even that felt fairly unremarkable There was a table next to us that came in excited to have dimsum. And watching their reaction, they came to the same conclusion as us -- food was cold, and flavors were off. We went on a weekday, so it's possible the kitchen was different that day, but the drop in quality was hard to ignore. The restaurant wasn't busy, service was good, and prices seemed unchanged from our previous visits. The new space is a clear improvement, but based on this meal, the food unfortunately went in the opposite direction. We likely won't be coming back

They now have beer! We love this place! Always look forward to coming back on our trip to Honolulu. We ate here 4x on this trip, it would have been more if we did not have all days adventures. Highly recommend this place for authentic Chinese food and some of the best Singapore noodles! Staff: Youlen was our waiter. Very nice and attentive server. Food: Awesome Singapore noodles. Perfectly cooked, temperature hot with lots of shrimp and bbq pork and veggies. Great combination of flavors! Huge portion size, if you are not too hungry, you can split the dishes and they don't mind. But you wouldn't want to share since the food is so good! Drink: Kirin beer was cold and great with the Singapore noodles Bathroom: There is one in the back of the food hall if you need to go, make sure to get the bathroom code to open the door.

Also I've always wanted to try the HK french toast so jumped at the opportunity - loved the peanut butter that melted inside and crispy fried bread. Service was efficient, it seems like it's a small family run place and they're all working so hard back there! Located inside the Asian Stix underground food court, we walked but they also validate parking if you spend more than $20. There's tons of other food options too in the plaza so definitely recommend checking it out.
