I was in the area and decided to take out. I grabbed a takeout menu and it was sticky and covered with rice cake. I asked for a new menu. I ordered beef chow funn - dry no extra msg to go at noon. After waiting until after 12:20 pm I asked where my order was. The possibly owner looked at me in shock. The waitress said she will check it should be soon. Another employee came out with a metal steel cart with a platter of duck in the little bun. Three takeout containers with corn soup. A bowl of corn soup. Also my takeout container. The platter was for the group that came after me and ordered after me. So it appears they wait to complete all order before filling the cart and bringing it out. Not bringing out as orders are filled. So I am not impressed with service. There was lots of bean sprouts the funn was thin and the beef smelled like baking soda which makes it tender but I think too much since over powering. Too bad.

They suck I would rather go to another place my wife was craving Chinese food for dinner, we spent about $100.00 something on pans , the beef broccoli only had stems no florets, the rest of the food was crap, next time I going to Kunia Chinese restaurant, or taste of Hong Kong, even maile's Chinese restaurant, or Waimalu Chinese restaurant where they serve you what you pay for not rip off , no pictures for this review sorry but if you want to find out go eat there

Noodles
Bryan G.

Good service and noodles were cooked perfect with choi sum and lots of sliced abalone. With the abalone gravy taste. Lots of parking clean restaurant.

Oyster sauce chicken over Chow Mein

Kapolei Chinese Restaurant has a couple of nice seafood specials running. Fresh Dungeness Crab or Cold Water Lobster prepared in your choice of styles (Black Bean, Salt and Pepper, or Ginger Green Onions). All are delicious but my personal favorite is the Ginger Green Onions preparation. Service is quick and efficient. Good size dining room that can accommodate large gatherings or family get togethers.

Chicken chowmein
Brenda A.

Definitely not impressed. The bbq pork was dry and it wasn't flavorful. It tasted old. The wonton soup was salty and some of them were raw in the middle. The chow mein was not edible, the noodles were uncooked and it was extra slimy. Service was fast. Large location, ambiance was ok.

Sweet and Sour spareribs
Gabriel P.

My wife took me and her bestie to lunch. We went in at 10:45, the posted opening time was 10:00. They were still mopping the floor and had to wipe down the table that they sat us down at. The waitress was friendly and helpful. We ordered two lunch plates, an order of Harm Ha Pork with ong choy, and an order of sweet sour spareribs. The plate lunches were ok, but neither my wife nor her bestie thought that it would be worth buying again. The portions were large but lacked in taste. The spareribs were bony and the. meat was tough. Taste wise, it was ok. The pork ong choy was just that. It lacked the harm ha taste. It is just not the same as when they first opened. Enjoy

Thomas R.

Huge portions! Recommend getting the salted duck egg! We come here when we want a big meal with leftovers for us. We ordered the Chinese shrimp fried rice and had a soup with it. Very quiet and clean restaurant.

Sometimes the food is good and fresh. Other times, the food, like the roast duck is old or cooked twice making it dry.

If you are in Kapolei and you're looking for an excellent Thai Food then check out Supa Thai. Fresh…read moreand authentic flavors. You will love thevCrispy Fried Pork Chops and Fried Chicken. The Sweet Chili Sauce taste delicious. Other items I highly recommend especially are Stir Fried Chow Fun with Shrimp, Crab Fried Rice,Khao So, and the Pineapple Curry with Duck. Make sure to save room for the Roti with Vanilla Ice Cream . It's that good. And the best part? It's BYOB. Supa Thai is definitely a hidden gem, service is great and prices will not break your budget. I definitely recommend.

Chef Supa DeRose and family were initially owners of the Malee Thai Restaurant at the Sam Sung…read morePlaza on Keeaumoku St in Honolulu from 2014 to 2020. After its closure, they opened Supa Thai in March 2022 in Kapolei and is doing well. Chef Supa is inspired by her family's farm in Central Thailand. Supa Thai Restaurant is known for its flavorful and popular dishes, e.g., pad Thai, curries, crispy pork chops, fried chicken, and basil noodles. Menu items include appetizers (spring/summer rolls, satay); combo plates (curries + spring rolls + Jasmine rice); desserts (mango with sticky rice, tapiocas, rotee); and drinks (Thai ic tea, Thai iced coffee, sodas). Portions are generous, fresh ingredients are used, and prices are reasonable. It was our first time at Supa Thai, and we ordered: * Pineapple curry with chicken. This curry was very flavorful and included red curry paste, coconut milk, fresh pineapple, tomatoes, onions, bell peppers, and basil. One does not normally see pineapple curry on the menu, so we were surprised to see it! We ordered some Jasmine rice with a ton of chicken slices into the curry, and went to town with the added spicy condiments and crushed peanuts! An enjoyable rich curry entrée! Forgot to order the curry medium hot, so we used the restaurant's handy housemade 4-bottled hot spiced variety. * Fried chicken. This was boneless chicken seasoned with Thai spices and deep fried until golden brown and served with sweet chili sauce. Fried super crisp and piping hot out of the fryer, a delicious side dish with sweet sour sauce! * Mango with sticky rice. The best yet to come, cold Hayden mango with warm coconut milk sticky rice! I could have easily eaten another plateful of dessert! Kudos to the single staff server who held the busy dine-in area that seats about 20, with all tables (except a two-seater) taken during the busy lunch hour! She managed to bring out water glasses and utensils, take/serve orders, replenish water glasses, bring out take-home containers, and processed bill payments. Watching her allowed the entire process to be such a calming nature, with all enjoying their lunch meals. The small restaurant is clean, with a nice Thai ambiance. Hours of operation are daily from 10:30a to 9p. Located next to Panda Express in a small strip mall near Walmart. Drive onto the right side of the restaurant for drive-through pick-up; park on the left side for dine-in. Yes, we see this as a favorite Thai restaurant for us, despite living so far away; but perhaps this will be an excuse for us to to visit Kapolei more often! Generous portions, fresh ingredients, affordable combo plates, and delicious food are great factors in making this restaurant a successful one!

What a surprise and absolute treat to have lunch at Mahi Ai Table inside Foodland Farms. I wasn't…read moreexpecting much when I walked in, but wow--this place delivered. I started with the Beef Luau, and omg. A steaming bowl of tender luau leaves with little "trinket-sized" bites of beef, rich and flavorful. And yes, I had to order a side of rice--because you just gotta have rice with this kind of dish. Then came the real dilemma: Fish & Chips or the Wagyu Short Rib Loco Moco. The only logical solution? ORDER BOTH. No regrets. Every bite was worth it. A huge shoutout to Chuck--one of the most knowledgeable, funny, and genuinely kind people I've met in this business. You can tell he loves what he does, and it shows in the service and the vibe he creates. And Al, who I believe is the manager--what a fun guy. For someone who hasn't been here long, he runs a tight ship. The staff is happy, helpful, and works together like a well-oiled machine. The energy in this place is just good. They've even got live music at 5pm and a solid pupu menu. This is way more than a one‑stop shop. I'll definitely be back to try more--especially the dessert menu. Ooh man. Thank you, Chuck, for an awesome lunch experience. And Al--keep up the great work. Marie

Really though... casual vibe. Good broth choices and a lot of meat and non meat options. They have everything from premium meats to fish ball, lobster ball, tofu (curd, fried, soft) to tofu skins (one of my fave). Shrimp, shellfish, shu mai, gyoza, etc. greens! Yeah spinach, bok Choy, mushrooms... button, shiitake, oyster, emoji, I'm telling you - so many options. And I love the sauce bar. They got may favorites - goma (sesame), chili, garlic, cilantro and green onion. Cannot go wrong w some fresh grated ginger and shoyu too. $40 per person isn't bad. We didn't get the Taiwan snow (shave ice with mochi) but they had some tapioca (taro, strawberry and plain)...I tried. It's ok. I left feeling happy and got the fried sesame balls filled w bean paste.

BEST. HOT POT. ON. OʻAHU…read more If you love hot pot and haven't been to Aunty's Hotpot, you are seriously missing out. The broths are so flavorful, the ingredients are fresh, and the whole experience is just so fun. It's the perfect place to come with friends, share food, and leave completely full and happy. But the real star of the place is Aunty. She is hands down the cutest and funniest woman ever. Her personality makes the whole restaurant feel warm and welcoming. She treats everyone like family and makes the experience 10x better. You can tell she truly cares about her customers and wants everyone to have a great time. The customer service here is honestly some of the best on the island. Great food, amazing vibes, and the kind of place you keep coming back to. If you're on Oʻahu and love hot pot, this place is a must. Trust me -- once you go, you'll understand why everyone loves Aunty.
