Sticker Shock. Mama has always had reasonably priced food. I ordered the Kalbi ribs. When she told me that it was $46.00. I took a few seconds. then said ok. You get two pieces of Kalbi, rice, Kim Chee, bean sprout and cabbage. See photo. The meat was tender and flavorful. Worth the price as good meat is getting harder to find. Also the potion is enough for two meals. Had an order of Meat Jun. If you like a heavy egg breading on the meat Jun this is for you. The meat was tender and a decent taste. I prefer a light batter. Still a good place for Korean take out. Enjoy read more

This will be my first "choi's" when it comes to korean food. Besides the flavorful and well-balanced taste, the kalbi and meat jun have the next level of thickness. Not only that, but the level of softness is beyond me. The meat jun is so soft that my chopsticks had cut through with little effort. My kalbi was so easy to pull away with a gentle tug. Highly recommend place to try. The service was awesome. The owner was doing multiple things at once, yet she was able to be attentive to her customers. Considerate,thoughtful, and stern, this korean lady is very hard working and is good at what she does. Interior is a well-aged convenient store with a kitchen that looks like it was maintained and could use a fix here and there. Overall, a must try!

Choi's Family Restaurant - Combo #4: meat jun, kalbee, and mandoo - Korean Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

We've been searching for this restaurant for years! Mama used to be located on King Street before COVID, and we finally found her new spot. In our opinion, they serve the best Meat Jun on Oahu -- the thickness and flavor of the meat are unmatched. We also love their BBQ chicken and spinach tofu salad. It's a true hole-in-the-wall gem with very reasonable prices. Takeout only now, but still our favorite go-to Korean place on the island. read more

Choi's Family Restaurant is located in the Hana Market for a few years now. It's located on McCully Street and its parking is with the McCully Buffet. There's two reserved stalls for Hana Market's customers as you enter the parking lot. I've ordered Korean food from Choi's since they were at the previous location but since they moved I really liked their spinach tofu salad! They have a little spicy dressing like a Taegu dressing . The dressing can be ordered separately, since it's so popular. Lately I ordered the zucchini tempura! Wow I must say it was really good! The slices were huge and thick and the batter thick and nice & crunchy! I believed I had about 11 pieces in my order! The sauce which came with the zucchini was really good too! So much better than zucchini jun! Best to call in your order and it'll be ready for you than having to wait since there was no waiting area or chairs. read more

Choi's Family Restaurant took over the kitchen at Hana Market on McCully St about a year or so ago. Thankfully for me, they have kept Hana's popular 'Big Breakfast of two eggs, two scoops of rice, and 4 pieces of meat. It's gone up in price like everything else these days, $6.59 as of 8 June 23. Hana Market has two dedicated stalls in the back parking lot on the Ewa mauka corner of McCully St & Algaroba St intersection, makes for a fast in and out for takeout. Based on recommendations from Yeeps Craig T & Braddah Fran C, I will definitely come back and try some of their Korean dishes! Will repeat and recommend! read more

Didn't realize they were original Choi's on king street! Loved this place owners were super helpful and friendly. Ordered the family pack and a side of the big bone Kalbi. The owner was nice enough to inform me that the Kalbi was so expensive she said are you sure you want it? YES! I said of because theirs is the best! They were very generous with our family pack, thank you so much. We have like 3 days worth of left overs haha. Highly recommend this restaurant! read more

I placed an order a few days ahead. The day before, I called to cancel part of the order, the worker said he couldn't do it, he didn't know how, and I should call at 7:30am because someone will be working by then and it will be fine. I called at 7:35, no one answered the phone, and I was unable to leave a voicemail because it wasn't set up. I called again before they opened and the same lady I placed the order with answered. I explained to her the situation, she was mad, but she said ok. When I went to pick up the other part of my order she was mad, said I couldn't buy anything, and kicked me out. She was unreasonable and rude. Even the other patrons felt bad for me and said sorry. read more

Choi's Family restaurant moved from King St to McCully street located inside Hana Market. Sadly it's no longer a "restaurant" for sit down dining and she only does take out but I'm grateful. I went last week to pick up food for a party and got to "talk story" with the owner for a little bit. She bought out Hana Market so owns both businesses. She set up a kitchen in the front part of the store that she cooks out of and the rest is still a little liquor/grocery store. Choi's is another one of my "go to's" for pot lucks and parties or dinner if I'm craving Korean food. She still has 2 party packs available. Each is enough for 4-6 people. Party pack #1 bbq chicken, beef, fried mandoo and choice of chicken katsu or meat jun. This includes rice and vegetables for $56 this one is my favorite! I usually order her famous spinach tofu salad with her homemade dressing that is addictive! I love to support this one woman operation, her prices have gone up a little over the years but her portions are large and generous. I'll always be back the Korean food is delicious! read more

Choi's Family Restaurant - This is (2) party packs and spinach salad. Generous servings and delicious! - Korean Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

They have now moved to McCully street into a small market. I got combo 4 (Kalbi and meat Jun) $16.50, Pork jun ($14.50) and Spinach Tofu Salad ($11.80) The food is similar but different. The kalbi is no longer the one large bone type thats filleted out, but the 3 bones that are sliced thinner like most places offer. I get it prices are on the rise and the need keep prices fair, it was still tender but not the same and i wish it was cut thinner. The other thing i noticed is that the pork jun is really thick now, it used to be thin like the meat jun. Its still very tender probably because of baking soda, but I prefer them thinner cut, more surface area and batter ratio. The meat jun is still very good, probably one of the best on the island, i think cooked in the deep frier. Thinly sliced, tender and nice crispy badder. The tofu salad is still killer, so simple but yet so good, spinach, tofu and a wonderful mildly spicy dressing. You can buy a pint of the dressing for $8 just get your own spinach and tofu i guess. The dressing has korean chili pepper flakes and sesame oil, those are the only 2 ingredients i can figure out. Its not too spicy but its very tasty. The sides are nothing too special but i liked the kim chee cabbage it was the fresh type with kimchee flavor, not really the traditional fermented type. Since the kalbi is not the special big bone type anymore I'll probably go for the Lunch Special (12.80) BBQ beef, BBQ chicken, and meat jun. Also gotta ask what the CHOIS SPECIAL for $28.90 is. read more

I came looking for something to eat for breakfast and the person working there was so angry! Her first words to me was "what do you want!" In an angry voice. When I said I was thinking about the breakfast and asked for a menu she shouted there is no menu look at the door! Then when I was looking at all the pictures on door deciding between breakfast and Korean food she got mad and came out with a knife and pointed at the breakfast picture like I was an idiot and I explained how maybe I wanted Korean food so I was looking at all the pictures. Then she told me, there's no more Korean food! So I ordered the breakfast - 4 bacon on rice with 2 eggs. It was a bargain, but soooo scary to order here. If you are hungry and feeling poor, this is the place to get food. read more

Recently moved to inside HANA MARKET on McCully Street, parking in the McCully Buffet lot, this take-out-only hole-in-the-wall is my new favorite. The BBQ chicken is really good, actually everything is really good. The zucchini tempura, meat jun, & tofu salad are my fave. I like to put the tofu salad sauce on everything, and apparently others must too, because you can buy a pint of that sauce separately. The menu I posted is old pricing so you just have to guess how much your bill will be or ask ahead of time so you're not surprised. The family pack is the best bang for your buck. Get that if you aren't sure what to try and you have a family to feed. It says feeds 5 ppl but it'll feed way more unless you're all hungry football players. read more

Hallelujah, so glad I found this place again!! We used to get take-out from their restaurant location near Keeaumoku, and we were soooo sad when it "disappeared" (sometime during COVID lockdowns). Even if the new digs leave a little to be desired--make that a lot of to desired--sharing space with a random, hole-in-the-wall mini mart does not automatically disqualify a good eatery in my book! I don't know when (or why) we started referring to the business owner here as "Mama"....she might've called herself that once, when we first started going to her original restaurant (10+ years ago). But whatever you call her, there's no question that Mama makes some of THE BEST Korean-style chicken katsu around...and lots of it!! Unlike some other places, the chicken katsu here is ultra-lean--there's not an ounce of fat or skin on this mountain of crunchy goodness--and yet it's also very tender (chicken thighs), with just enough marinade flavor that I personally enjoy eating it without any sauce! That said, I know some people swear by the katsu sauce here...even ranking it up there with the all-time favorite "bulldog sauce" (whaaat, how can that be?)! Also, the panko breading is delightfully light & crispy--yet still managed to be substantial enough, and NEVER GREASY. I also appreciate that the crunchy breading actually sticks to the chicken, without separating or crumbling away. When you get to the car, be sure to open up your bag of food, & open the top cover of the katsu, to allow the steam to fully escape! Speaking of parking, there are a few reserved spots in the parking lot next door (shared with McCully Buffet), which has always been enough for me to just run in and pick up my phone order. As long as you give Mama at least 15 minutes lead-time (she'll tell you 20 minutes), the food should be hot & ready as soon as you get there. Btw, if you order anything other than chicken katsu, I'm sure it's fine too...but I've only ordered chicken katsu, for as long as I can remember! read more

We have great news, we're having a baby! Oh wait, that's not supposed to go on Yelp! But in similar news, Choi's family restaurant has moved from its long time King Street location to McCully, sharing space with Hana Market in a take-out only format. So apparently the guy who owns Hana Market is sibling of the woman who owns and runs Choi's family restaurant (or that's what he told me while I was waiting). I'm guessing due to COVID pressures, he allowed her to move her eatery into his shop. Be prepared for some sibling fighting/banter in Korean when you're there. Words of advice, call in your order. Do not go there and then order, seriously just don't. The place is an enormous amount of chaos in a tiny, tiny, tiny space. I was dodging the woman and her assistant who are moving at 150 mph who run the eatery as were other patrons in the tiny shop. Call your order in and pick it up a little after when you're told it will be ready to minimize your time in that whirlpool of frantic energy. It's also a bit confusing who you pay, but you pay the hana market cashier who then confirms that you paid. Parking is a bit of a mess, as you either park on the street, or grab a stall in the shared lot with McCully Buffet. Turn right heading south down McCully street as the half of the lot is one way only. Now, what you're really after: the food is the same, the menu is the same, and the prices are the same, which explains the constant stream of customers picking up food. Try it once and you'll join the following. I got my regular BBQ chicken, which came with the regular two scoops rice, lots of kimchee, beansprouts, pickled cabbage, and a truckload of delicious BBQ chicken. I like how Choi's gives a significantly more amount of meat than other Korean BBQ places. Like I said, try it once and you'll join the following. So, I'm not exactly thrilled by this new location as opposed to the former South King Street place, but I'm still coming, because once you go to Choi's, you'll never patron another Korean BBQ place again. read more

Choi's is always our go-to spot for the best Big Bone Kalbi on Oahu! Can't beat it!!! You can order the Kalbi as a side or full order. We normally get a side order and cook rice at home then add on either a side of bbq chicken or the spinach and tofu salad which is large enough to charge with 2-4 people. We've been hooked on their kimchi daikon which isn't too spicy, even for my husband who normally not tolerate spice. Everything there is amazing! Parking can be a little tricky because the McCully Buffet restaurant customers tend to park there even though there are two designated stalls for Hana market and Choi's. Tip: Place a phone order since parking is limited Note: the price of the Kalbi did go up, but it's still worth every penny! read more

Choi's Family Restaurant is a good fast food Korean restaurant. It is literally a fast food take out place. The food is good and the prices are reasonable. Ordered their mushroom chicken plate. Large enough to feed 2-3 people The owner herself prepared the dish so you know it's good. From the time I ordered my food it took maybe 5-10 minutes as the dishes are prepared at time of order The restaurant is located on one side of a neighborhood liquor store. So it literally a fast food take out place Good Korean comfort food read more

Ate here for the first time. I ordered the family pack #1 which includes bbq chicken, bbq beef, fried mandoo, and a choice of chicken katsu or meat jun all for $49. This pack feeds about 5-6 people. I assumed this was all I was getting so I cooked rice prior to picking the food up only to find out that it comes with a large container of rice, a large container of mixed veggies, some kind of meat jun or mandoo sauce, and a small container of kimchee. The meats were a bit dry like they've been slightly over cooked, but the flavor was on point and you can't beat the price for this amount of food. I love to smash food and I couldn't even eat a lot of it. The staff are friendly and fast. I phone ordered and it took about 20mins to pick up. Due to these Covid-19 times, only take out was allowed and you have to enter through their backdoor to pick up your order for some reason. There's a bit of street parking and they also have this small parking lot behind them, but unless you have an average sized vehicle, you may have a hard time turning into their driveway. This restaurant is located on King Street right across the street from Easy Music Center and next to the Trophy House. read more

We ordered the family back to-go, and it was enough food for probably 6-8 people for $50 + the tofu spinach salad of course. First up, tofu spinach salad! Definitely highly recommended and as you will see, it's all in the dressing. It's a huge portion of spinach with at least a block of cubed tofu. The dressing makes it come together with the perfect blend of savory and a hint of spice. A must order, as you will see my fellow reviewers recommend it as well. The meat jun and teriyaki beef were very tender and delicious, but I wasn't a fan of the mochiko chicken. It was like tiny bits of chicken were battered and molded together in a ball, which made the meat tough. It also resulted in intermittent pieces of chicken falling apart in a bite. If you like kimchi with a bit of spice and not too sour, make you sure you get a side of it as well! read more

If you're looking for a good deal on Korean take-out, hit up Choi's Family Restaurant, which is now located in Hana Market on McCully Street. The portions are generous and the food is tasty. I ordered the Family Pack #1 and while the menu says that it serves 5-6, it can serve a few more heads than that. It came with a decent amount of BBQ chicken and beef, kim chee, fried mandoo, and an unbelievable amount of chicken katsu (I would guestimate there was the equivalent of 3 L&L chicken katsu plate lunches in there). The only downside is that for the ban chan, you're only given bean sprouts and cabbage. Call in your order ahead of time so that it's ready and waiting for you when you arrive. There is parking in the back (same parking lot as McCully Buffet). read more

My wife and I picked up a couple plates as part of a fundraiser. We essentially shared everything but one plate had BBQ chicken and meat jun and the other had BBQ chicken and bulgogi. Both plates had rice, veges, and a single mandoo, and we also got some complimentary kimchi. Overall, I thought the food was excellent. The mandoo was delicious, the BBQ chicken was cooked perfectly, and that was some of the best kimchi. My wife's only complaint was that the rice was a bit hard but in my opinion that was minor compared to how good everything else was. Portion size was huge, and my wife indicated that the lady working the counter was very nice. Also, they had convenient parking. read more

So I donated blood at the Blood Bank this afternoon and what a nice way to end the day with a hearty meal. I was craving for chicken katsu so I yelped for near by places. Choi's Family Restaurant popped up. It's actually a take-out setup that's hidden in the Hana Market on McCully Street. I called in an order for the Combo 3 plate which consisted of chicken katsu, meat jun, and mando. It's served with rice, kimchee, and some cabbage and bean sprouts. This meal can easily feed two. Cost is $17 but everywhere the cost of plate lunches has gone up. The meal itself was very delicious and I loved the katsu. It was crispy, moist and had a very nice flavor. The meat jun was also good and I loved the mandoo. The cashier lady was very friendly and shared that her restaurant use to be on King Street which I have eaten at in the past. She said the food is still the same here. Best thing to do is call ahead for your order and by the time you get there your order will be ready. There are two marked parking stalls available as well. read more

In something new for our office, we've been having occasional catered lunches. The most recent one, a coworker selected Choi's Family Restaurant both for the quality and price. The order was ready on time and required pick-up. The spread for our meal was impressive; all the dishes were cooked well and very flavorful. We had kalbi, battered meat, fried chicken, tofu and greens, cooked sprouts, bok choi, and rice. The meats were served with a generous portion of jun; also a sweet spicy red sauce was provided that just added to each dish. All the foods were packaged well with large helpings of each item. I tried a little of everything, but had to go back for more. In this area of Honolulu, it's easy to be picky with Korean food since there are so many great options; I would definitely get food from here again! read more

Ever had a very long day and you just don't want to cook? Well today was one of those days for us. For some reason I was craving Korean food and thought about this place as we pass it all the time. We used to eat here all the time many years ago and I don't know why we stopped. Fast forward to tonight, we stopped by and I already knew I wanted the Kalbi. I love kalbi and the one they serve here makes my eyes roll to the back of my head as it tastes that good. We are not talking that thin sliced kalbi but rather the kind with the one bone and the long thick slice of juicy tender meat that makes you say oh my! The Kalbi plate is $27.90 but it is so worth it. Another thing I love here is their tofu spinach salad. It is so good that I can't stop eating it and I don't even like veggies and tofu but oh the way they make it is so good. I recommend ordering some. My better half got the Combo plate #1 which came with BBQ Beef, BBQ Chicken, & Fried Mondoo. It had three types of Namul aka panchan aka seasoned vegetables. $12.80. She also ordered a side order of zucchini tempura ($11.00) and it was a massive amount. She ate 4 big pieces and had to take the rest home. They also gave us some seaweed soup in the beginning that hit the spot on this rainy night. And the last but not least it's BYOB and no corkage fee. We will be back for sure. read more

Looking for korean food for lunch and the hubster and I stumbled upon Choi's. I've heard of this place for their tofu salad sauce, and I've had it at parties, which is absolutely the bomb! So aside from the fact that service sucks here, the food makes up for it. On this particular day, and maybe its like this everyday or perhaps today was just that kind of day for them, they had 1 girl on duty who was the host, the server, the cook, the cashier, and the dishwasher. All while the owner is laying around in the corner tables watching her K-pops. Customers were there waiting for their food for what seemed like 30min, all while we are waiting for our food order to come out. The food was good and tasty and I guess that makes up for all the other stuff you had to endure just to eat here. read more

I don't know why it took me so long to come back to Choi's Family Restaurant to have a meal, as Choi's was one of my favorite Korean restaurant of mines, since the early 90's. My coworker & I use to frequent this restaurant back in da dayz when the restaurant use to be located across the street from the Old Stadium Park in the Mo'ili'ili neighborhood. Choi's Family Restaurant has since moved away many years ago, just down the street........... closer to the Keeaumoku / Ala Moana area. The current Choi's restaurant is much smaller than the original one, but I can tell you for a fact that Choi's still cranks out some ono Korean Grindages!!!! And as a plus while coming here, at least the current location of Choi's Restaurant has a pretty sizable private parking lot in the back of the building. All you have to do is go along S. King Street, and turn into a lane, which leads to a very large parking lot behind the building. I came here for lunch today, as I suggested it to my coworkers because I remembered seeing the awesome pics of the grindages from my Yelp buddies - Rachel I., Jo Y., Pam H., Li Y., Jo C., & Lori L. ............you chicks is AWESOME, and you folks know your GRINDAGES! Upon entering the restaurant, we were greeted right away and sat ourselves down to an open table. Shortly after, menu's & water were dropped off. After looking over the menu, I just had to try the Spicy Squid Stir Fry Plate. With my meal, it also came with some Seaweed Soup, & a bowl of White Rice. My coworkers ordered the following items - 1. Tofu Soup 2. Lunch Special - which consist of BBQ Beef, BBQ Chicken, Meat Jun, & Fried Mandoo. 3. Yug Ge Jang - a Beef Soup, and the lady was very nice to add tofu in my coworker's soup. What can I say about the grub? Normally, when I go to a Korean restaurant I would normally be grinding my Korean BBQ Chicken, because that's what I like! But through Yelp.............. after looking at this powerful "pic" of the - "Spicy Squid Stir Fry" on Yelp, this dish had my name all over it! My Spicy Squid Stir Fry was deeeeeeeelious! Very nice flavor, with a slight hint of spiciness! The squid was very tender, and I loved the way the vegetables - (cabbage, mushroom, onions, & zucchini) were sauteed nicely in the stir fry! I would definitely come back here to eat this dish again! Service - Great service! Fast & friendly............no complains here! Looking for some ono Korean grindages? Give Choi's Family Restaurant a try.......you won't regret it! Winnah's! read more

My wife and I decided to try Choi's for lunch after finding out that Kyung's was closed on a Tuesday. The restaurant was pretty empty at 12:30 with the workers sitting down at a table for lunch. I ordered the fried squid and my wife had a small portion "B" combination plate of meat jun and BBQ chicken. We were served a plate of Kim Chee and dried daikon as our ban chan. When I dine at Korean restaurants I really look forward to the 5-7 plates of ban chan that are usually served so I was disappointed that we were only served 2 plates. To be fair the ban chan was good though. My fried squid was really good and the portion was large. They didn't ask me what spiciness I wanted but the dish turned out perfectly seasoned. The squid and the vegetables were cooked to the perfect doneness, tender squid and crispy vegetables. I would recommend this dish. My wife's plate was not as good. The batter on her meat jun was a little greasy and had a doughy texture to it. My wife loves meat jun but she didn't like this one. The bbq chicken was better but lacked flavor like it wasn't marinated long enough. It had nice grill marks but my wife had to dipped the pieces into the meat jun sauce to add flavor. On the strength of the fried squid I had I would come back again. read more
