    This place is pretty fabulous! The food is amazing and fresh and so good. The orange chicken is incredible!! Soup dumplings wonderful! Honestly everything was so good. All served family style and decent portions, the orange chicken could have a larger portion since it was family style. Service was fast. They are very friendly and so nice. You will most likely need a reservation. It gets packed. There is no parking, so you will have to go down the street across the Chic Fila in the public parking. It also fills up fast. So just prepared to get street parking and walk there. This place is quaint and has 8 tables so be patient, and make sure to get there early and hope you can sit and eat!

    JanJian Noodles $10. Sooooo good.

    An unpretentious small hole-in-the-wall that's been serving solid Northern Chinese style food with generous portions for over 30 years. Hits: The xiao long bao had a wonderful burst of umami rich broth with tender pork inside. Warm and comforting. The dough a bit thick for my taste. The crispy duck was absolutely spot on. Crackling skin with juicy, succulent, meat. Drew rave accolades from my Shanghainese sister-in-law. My favorite the clams in black bean sauce . I usually prefer smaller clams, and these were on the larger side, but they nailed the sauce. Perfect balance of sweet, salty, and that unmistakable black bean funk. Spoon that sauce over white rice and let me have a moment to myself. Miss: The cold ginger chicken. Good flavors but a bit dry. Good friendly service. There's a small parking lot on the side of the restaurant that can hold about 8 cars. Happy Eating!!

    Just tried this small mom and pop restaurant as was pleasantly surprised on how good some of their dishes were. Not everything was on point but overall it was a good meal. The best things we ate were the orange chicken and pork eggplant. The dumpling soup was a little bland, crispy lamp chops were tasty but a little too oily for my liking. Shanghai dumplings were good. I would like to try here again and try some of their other dishes.

    Both times I've ordered Uber Eats from this place has been horrible unfortunately. My partner, my mom, and I ordered from here on Christmas and it was really bad. First, it took nearly 2 hours (uber eats driver's fault, not there's) and when we go it everything was cold and soggy. Our pan fried pork buns were incredibly soggy and somehow WET and mushy also. And our orange chicken had NO ORANGE SAUCE. It was dry. My mom and partner got really bad food poisoning from it afterwards. I will say it was quite late when we ordered it so it may have been the last of what was left, but I don't think that should excuse it. The best thing was the fried rice but it was really basic fried rice. Nothing special. Lowkey ruined our Christmas a bit. Their menu LOOKS so good but the execution is so horrible. Idk if the dine in experience here is different but it should be consistent even with take out. Especially if I'm paying MORE.

    Food is ono! Service was very nice It wasn't crowded so the ambiance was chill. We got here at 4:30pm and there was only one other table in here

    My good friend and I love coming here after a day at HoMa. It's the perfect place for an early dinner. she loves the beef over crispy fried noodles, and I love the chicken and mushrooms. Mmm so tasty and comforting! Service is so Aloha. I love this place every time and cannot wait to come back very soon. I think they take reservations but you can sometimes walk in when they first open.

    Dew Drop Inn is such a solid spot when you're craving homestyle Northern Chinese dumplings and comfort dishes in Honolulu, and this visit definitely reminded me why it's a local favorite. We started with the boiled dumplings, and they were exactly what I wanted: chewy, handmade wrappers with a juicy, flavorful filling that tasted fresh, not greasy or heavy. The Shanghai vegetable buns were a standout too--fluffy, slightly chewy dough with a savory veggie interior that felt hearty but still light enough that you keep reaching for "just one more." The egg drop soup hit that simple comfort-food lane: silky egg ribbons in a clean, lightly seasoned broth that paired nicely with all the doughy, carb-y dishes on the table. The spicy chicken dumplings brought the heat and ended up being my favorite of the night--tender filling with a nice kick from the chili oil and seasoning, bold without blowing out your palate. It's the kind of plate you keep circling back to between bites of everything else. Service is casual but efficient, and the whole place still has that tiny, slightly old-school vibe that matches their reputation for dumplings, buns, and noodles. Overall, Dew Drop Inn continues to be a must-visit when I'm craving comforting dumplings and Shanghai-style bites in town, and I'd gladly come back just for the veg buns and spicy chicken dumplings alone.

    Best Chinese/Taiwanese food I've had in a long time! [Location] This unassuming gem is located on Beretania near Chick-fil-a. There are very limited parking spots to the left-hand side of the restaurant entrance. Drive with caution as there are people that walk by and the space is narrow. You can also park at a metered spot, but be mindful of the time you park and cost. I believe the restaurant has a restroom, though I'm not sure. The space is much larger than it looks, and well ventilated. Nice and cool! Wish I had brought a light jacket. Limited seating. I can see how the place can get packed quickly. [Food] My boyfriend and I enjoyed the Shanghai pork buns (came with black vinegar) which were super delicious! The Taiwanese noodle soup (described spicy) is the star of the menu. The broth is flavorful, lots of aromatics! Plenty of tender beef morsels and delicious ong choy. If you don't like cilantro, you may not appreciate this dish. I also found it interesting that the noodles were more udon-like than I've seen in different renditions of this dish. My boyfriend liked his Mongolian beef but noted it wasn't spicy. I didn't care for the Mongolian beef because there wasn't much to it, in portion or taste. The dish didn't come with rice, so we had to order a side bowl of jasmine rice for $2.00 extra. Good portion of rice, very well cooked. This place is BYOB, though I'm not certain if there is a corking fee. The dishes were priced on the high side but I did leave with plenty of leftovers! [Service] The staff were very kind and friendly, though not the most attentive. We had to ask for hot tea, as we were only given ice waters; however, the tea was flavorless (tasted like water). We also waited quite a while to order (despite being the only ones seated at the time), and even had to get out of our seats to grab some to-go boxes and the check from an employee. Still, we enjoyed our experience and everyone was very pleasant! My boyfriend and I will visit again! Parking isn't fun but the food is worth the hassle.

    Dew Drop has been at the same location since the 80s. It's one of the very few local mom and pop restaurants that I like going to. The owner Charlie and wife, Becky, cook up Taiwanese dishes with a local taste. The dumplings are good as well as their ground pork sesame bread pockets. Finish your meal with some black sesame balls. This is a small restaurant seating around 25 people comfortably, but can probably pack 35 diners. Becky runs the front of the house and Charlie does the cooking. Their son Jimmy helps out both in the front and in the kitchen. They have a parking lot next door to the restaurant that has space for 8 cars. If that is full your option is street metered.

    Dew Drop Inn on Beretania is small--about 8 tables--which makes the room feel intimate. We went on a Sunday at 7 PM and it was buzzing. Every table was full, servers were moving fast, and food was coming out quickly. People kept walking in looking for seats, but the room stayed full. Service was very nice and friendly, and the place felt homey and local We ordered three dishes: dumplings (pork and chives) for $18, Choy Sum Bean Curd for $18, and the Shao Bing (pork, veggies, tofu) for $19. Everything was good, but nothing struck me as special. The exception was the Shao Bing, which was new to us and very delicious. At $18-19, the meal felt pricey for what we got. If I return, it will be for that Shao Bing; the rest didn't justify the price the same way Overall, the food was good but didn't show that extra X factor we look for. Given the $18-19 pricing across the board, that matters. The Shao Bing delivered; the dumplings and Choy Sum Bean Curd did not feel worth those prices

    Taiwanese beef noodle soup
    Anna B.

    Really good Taiwanese style beef noodle soup- tasted like home to me! Portions are great. We shared the noodle soup plus white rice and tasty Mongolian beef. Servers are so friendly but sometimes the language barrier can cause order mixups, so it's best if you're patient or can speak Mandarin Chinese :) looking forward to trying lots else on their menu!

    #9 Cold jelly fish

    I finally got to try Dew Drop Inn in Honolulu, and I'm glad I did. It was my first time and the place has a quiet charm family-run, with a menu full of northern Chinese dishes that feel both familiar and new. I went in with no expectations, just curiosity. A few dishes really stood out: #12, the cold egg with pressed tofu, had a unique texture and flavor that caught me off guard in a good way. #66, the Szechuan eggplant, packed bold seasoning with just the right heat. #41, the steamed fish with ginger onion sauce, was clean and comforting and #7, the spicy boiled chicken dumplings, were a highlight tender, flavorful and topped with fresh herbs and crispy shallots that gave it a nice lift. I didn't get around to trying #50 (orange chicken) or #58 (salt and pepper lamb) but I did sample #9, the cold jellyfish. It was more subtle than the others, but still interesting. You can tell the kitchen is run with care but I noticed the focus seems to lean more toward takeout these days. The in-person service was quiet, not as hands-on as I would have expected. All-in-all I'm planning to go back with family soon. There's a lot more on the menu I want to try and I'd love to support a local spot that's clearly built on tradition and heart.

Surprisingly preferred this over the beef noodle. a little bit of sour, but just the right amount with the creamy broth mix. This with the chewy noodle was bomb.

And yes, now I will absolutely be thinking about them often. If you think you know cake noodles because you've had Cantonese noodles before, Lee Ho Fook in Honolulu's Chinatown is here to humble you. I was definitely humbled. Tucked along the canal in Chinatown, Lee Ho Fook Restaurant is one of those cozy little neighborhood spots where the tables are close, the room is snug, and the noodles do all the talking. My Honolulu homies, twinsie "Auntie" Nadine C. and Cycle Buddy Randy S., brought me here for noodles and I'm eternally grateful they did. We ordered the Minute Chicken Cake Noodles, tossed noodles with choi sum and won ton, plus a side of ong choy. Every plate understood the assignment. As an Arizona girl, I had never had minute chicken or cake noodles before and fully assumed they'd be in the same lane as Cantonese noodles. Yelpers, I was wrong. Delightfully wrong. Cake noodles are a Cantonese classic but the magic is all in the texture: pan-fried until golden and crisp on the outside, while the center stays soft enough to soak up all that glossy savory sauce. It's the best of both noodle worlds - crispy and chewy. A true textural delight. The Minute Chicken Cake Noodles were the star for me. That contrast between the crispy edges and soft middle was wildly satisfying, and the chicken was silky, savory, and exactly the kind of comfort food that makes you stop mid-bite just to appreciate what's happening. The tossed noodles with choi sum and won ton were equally comforting in a more classic, no-fuss way, and the ong choy was the perfect green side dish that was garlicky, fresh, and necessary. Lee Ho Fook is small, comforting, and exactly the kind of place you want when what you really need is a bowl of something delicious and humble. Come hungry, bring a few friends, and order the cake noodles.

    They moved across the street 3 weeks ago. Free Parking is underneath so covered. The dim sum was…read moredelicious as expected! The service is amazing! They didn't rush us like most restaurants with their 90 minutes time limit. They brought out the food quickly and efficiently. Refilled our water and tea without us asking. Very accommodating when we had special requests. Some of my favorites are the green beans, egg tarts, onion pancakes, and beef chow fun. Highly recommended especially for delicious, authentic Chinese Food!

    KSR moved fr its long time location on Kapiolani to Amanu. It was time to hit up this old skool…read morespot for dim sum. We ordered pork hash, manapua, har gow, spring rolls, pickled cucumbers ($12.95) and a platter of char siu & duck. The dim sum was about $8/each, which I thought was very reasonable. My buddy really likes siao mai, and he said KSR has the best ones out of the places I have brought him to in HNL. On the other hand, the manapua was just okay: The ratio of meat to bao was low. I took char siu fr the platter and added it to the bao. We might have been better off skipping the baos and ordering a rice or noodle plate. The har gow and spring rolls were pretty good. The rolls arrived piping hot, and the har gow had a nice texture in the wrapper. Fourthly, the cucumber was fresh & crunchy, and had lots of garlic. I ate some with the char siu to cut thru the fat. Lastly, the char siu & duck platter was very good. They do a good job of putting some char on the bbq pork. The duck was tasty, but there were a couple of bony pieces. Regarding the ambiance, its big in here. Although they don't use carts, the aisles are wide. The servers were friendly & warm. I would def return for dim sum, but I also want to come for dinner. The food is very good, and the prices are reasonable.
