    Revisited after a year and it was just as good. Service was attentive and fast. Skewers were delivered promptly and all the items were good. We ordered some items to take home. Ambiance was busy but comfortable, will definitely be back.

    We wanted to try Mongolian skewers, and this was definitely the spot to do it! The seating area is on the smaller side, with about 7-8 tables that can seat roughly 4-6 people each, so it feels cozy and lively. The menu has a huge variety of skewers -- lamb, beef, beef tendon, chicken feet, venison, chicken hearts, and more. My party was excited and basically wanted to try everything. The skewers are pretty small, but that just means you get to sample more -- I'm pretty sure we went through around 60 skewers total and I honestly enjoyed them all. Aside from the skewers, the eggplant dish and the crawfish were especially delicious, so I highly recommend ordering those too. Service was fast and helpful. You can keep ordering as you go, and the food comes out quickly, which makes the whole experience fun and easy. If you're craving skewers, you've got to check this place out -- it's a must-try!

    We didnt reserve,all tables were taken but manage to get seated within 20 minutes. Theres very limited tables so reservations is recommended. Staff is of excellent service. The most authentic tasting skewers Ive tried. The best skewers restaurant in Hawaii. Its a small dining space so it can get loud.

    Khan Skewer Restaurant: A Delightful Surprise Khan Skewer Restaurant has been on my radar as a place to try. Since it was Restaurant Week, we promptly made a dinner reservation (highly suggested). While dining, I did see a walk-in party being turned away (or perhaps told to return later). It's located on Isenberg St near South King in Moiliili, fronting the St. Louis Clubhouse. Parking available in a handful of spaces fronting the restaurant or on the street. We ordered the Restaurant Week menu which was for 2-3 persons. The garlic edamame appetizer came out quickly. The deep fried chicken tenders and skewers were served atop a wooden serving tray. The 2-top table became quite crowded, with dishes arranged in puzzle-like fashion, as the server quipped. Our favorites of the evening were the chicken tenders, eggplant, and butter scallops (which were individually served as there were prepared in 3 different ways). The grand finale was the snow fluffy milk ice, which was available in lilikoi or peach flavor. Noticed a nearby table eyeing it from afar lol. Such a great way to end a meal!

    We tried Khan Skewer recently and overall it was just ok for me. I wouldn't necessarily suggest it to others, but I also wouldn't mind going back if someone invited, just not a place I'd go out of my way for. Others in my party enjoyed their food more than I did. The flavors were pretty similar across most of the dishes, so nothing really stood out. The mushrooms came in a foil container with a soup/sauce that felt a bit odd. I really loved the corn, I ordered two! Dessert at the end was actually good though and a nice finish to the meal. Service was friendly and attentive, which I appreciated. Parking is small but there's street parking nearby. When we arrived there were only a few parties seated, but by the time we left the place was packed with people waiting for tables, so definitely make reservations.

    I have been wanting to try here for a while, finally got to come out tonight. Super cute small place but so worth it. We waited for about 20 mins but didn't seem that long. Service was great, food didn't take to long to come out, we ordered more as we went. Everything came out cooked on skewers, the pan was warm to keep the food items warm. I loved the mushroom medley as well. I'll be back again with friends and maybe even try one of their tower alcoholic drinks, those looked good.

    Free melon dessert!!!

    I always love coming here! The atmosphere is lively and fun! Food is always good. Tried the venison for the first time and it was great without and sauce. Tender and flavorful! Eggplant is always a winner with the garlic and butter. Chicken wings is another go to for us. Servers are always friendly no matter how busy they get. It is understandable that they may get overwhelmed at times but they are always happy to serve. Place has gotten so much busier lately so make sure you make a reservation before coming

    Beef tongue! My fav

    After eating our way through Flushing, NY last month and finding our new addiction-skewers, we've been craving them since we came back home. I've only had tried HNL skewer house but my fiance wanted to try this place. Definitely satisfied my craving, we left happy and full (but $150 poorer lol). We arrived at 5:44pm and the waitress/ hostess was like "we have a reservation at 7:30 do you think you can finish in time?" Who takes 2 hours to eat dinner but I told her of course so she sat us. They quickly brought us our dipping sauce and spice and a cute warmer tray heated by some tea candles. We ordered the pork belly, lamb, chicken gizzard,and beef tongue skewers, all were DELICIOUS. The dipping sauce was kind of like a fresh garlic and chili pepper sauce? I'm not really sure, it was sweet, refreshing and spicy all at the same time. And went perfectly with the fatty meat skewers and whatever spice mix they put on the side. We ended up asking for extra of both dips lol. For our sides we got the fried rice- big chunks of pork belly in it, yum. Scallop with vermicelli- a little too zingy for my taste and the scallops were quite small. Eggplant- juicy and garlicky! One of the best things we ordered! And the golden tofu- someone posted a picture here of skewers with the caption but it was NOT SKEWERS! Just pan fried spicy tofu... mid. Your meal also comes with a complimentary dessert- snow. Peach or passion fruit, with Frosted Flakes on top! Tasted like frozen cereal bowl lol so yummy. My only two issues were the price and the service a bit. It was fully packed and there was only one person taking orders but she forgot quite a few of our things and we had to wave her down multiple times for the same things. And prices were a little crazy too- $8-$12 for 3-5 skewers. In New York they were $1-2 each AND higher quality. Overall we'll be back but definitely only for a special occasion due to the price. ALSO!!! Make a reservation if you have a big party! The restaurant is quite small and gets busy fast.

    Spent $$$ just for mediocre food that is seasoned all the same way and terrible service. Immediately upon entry, the place smelled of strong spices. Took a while to get greeted and sat. We ordered so much food (not all captured). We even had a special occasion we were celebrating. Our server asked if we'd like them to sing to the person of honor so we said yes. But she dropped off the shaved ice and left. It was pretty disappointing to be honest..

    Always my favorite spot when I'm craving skewers. They have a good variety of skewers to choose from. The corn and century egg tofu is definitely something you need to order. Food is flavorful and comes out fresh. Service is always good and a good late night spot place to hang out with friends

    Great service at this new to me restaurant. Came to celebrate the Chinese New Year and was treated with special lai see treats. First a lai see for coming and then one for on the spot discounts (from $$ to % discounts). Staff was super friendly and assorted skewers and courses delicious! The oysters were the star of the show! I love garlic and the dishes were well seasoned with it. Great spot!

    They have onsite parking but only one of the gates is open. When parking, it's tight. If you get there at opening time, you can back into a spot rather head in first since only one gate is open. Came in and ordered a few things. Skewers were okay, got a mushroom medley and green onion pancake which was flavorful and crispy.

    Mike L.

    There's a tiny parking lot for a couple cars but street parking wasn't too bad. There's also happy hour which is enjoyable. Overall all the skewers were good. Khan Skewer also offers dishes too.

    How Have I Never Been Here Before? The Crab Curry Is a Must!…read more If you're craving flavorful Asian food, this spot is worth a visit. 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. Reservations can take a little persistence to get through, and this place is worth the effort. One more tip: it's BYOB!

Crab was a little expensive, but we did it. Curry crab- sweet curry, kind of an Asian style curry flavor. Not Indian. It's in between a Chinese and Thai curry. fried rice- it's not salty enough. It was okay. Hong Kong lemon tea- not strong enough, watery. True Hong Kong lemon tea is very strong. Black pepper sizzling beef- the most flavorful and tender dish. Chili oil- I asked for chili oil and they really gave me chili oil. I asked for chili oil with the pepper flakes and they said they charge money for that. So I just opted for the chili oil to make my friend rice more flavorful and a bit spicy, the oil was spicy, that's it, no flavor. Customer service- the male servers were very attentive.

    Time for an update as I realized my last review of Golden Eagle Chinese Restaurant dates back to…read more2014. I used to come here all the time with my coworkers for lunch, as Golden Eagle Chinese Restaurant was just a hop, skip, & jump away from my office. Through the years, the business & location hasn't changed, but if I'm correct, I owners of the business have changed hands several times. I remembered the last time I came here was during Covid-19 where Golden Eagle Chinese was just doing "take-out" and no dining inside was available. Since the pandemic has passed us, everything is back to normal with the exception of different owners. This past Sunday I decided to drop by the Golden Eagle Chinese Restaurant to buy some steamed fish filet for my dad. Upon arriving at the restaurant, I must say not much has changed as far as the decor of the restaurant. What I did get from Golden Eagle was fast and friendly service, and a wonderfully made dish of steamed fish filet with ginger & onion (dad approved)! If you're Jonesing for Chinese food, give Golden Eagle Chinese Restaurant a try!

It's quaint inside, but again, old school, so you'll see some boxes stacked in the corner. Janey got there first and said the man working was kinda unfriendly. But I think it was more about not knowing who we were, and like I said, lots of locals that frequent. The woman working was really nice! I just let Janey order. We started with some delicious hot n sour soup. The fried rice was really good! Loved the crispy skin duck! The gau gee mein had a great assortment of vegetables! And the sauteed choy sum(?) was good! Overall, really good local Chinese food! Though the interior is nice, it was a little warm even with the AC. The setting sun was just hitting the windows and even with the filter, it was warm. Other than that, great place to come to! Mahalo Golden Eagle!

    Living on Maui, one of my favorite noodle dishes is chow fun…read more The child phone beef dish here made Maui chow look like dog poop. My girlfriend ordered the Singapore bitter melon doodle dish, and it was crazy fantastic. The melon was bitter...It was an odd flavor... But new to my pallete. Once I added hoisin sauce, it took it to the next level. I don't think I could go here every week, because the flavors would probably blend together... But once a month, 100% I am hitting this place. If you're in the area, you need to make it a point to come here. Service was on point.

    FIRST time customer - Growing up only 2 blocks away from this location 70 years ago I vividly…read morerecall walking with my POPO and mother headed into Chinatown to spend the morning shopping at the open MARKET and after to have LUNCH at either Char Hun Sut and or Tin Tin - Our favorite order was soup'n noodles , a steaming HOT bowl of "Won Ton Mein" and or "Wor Won Ton Mein" - Mmmmm - After the KAPOLEI Chinese restaurant in KAPOLEI "closed" so abruptly and PERMANENTLY I was shocked and extremely UPSET since very few "old school" Chinese restaurants here on Oahu still cook the type of dishes that my CANTONESE pallet craves and savors - Still reeling from this loss and desperate to satisfy my hunger for just a DELICIOUS bowl of "Won Ton Mein" - So desperate for this specific cuisine I went on line searching "YELP" to search for a recommendation and came across this restaurant "Lam's Kitchen" - I drove from my home in EWA Beach (West Loch Fairways Townhomes) into Chinatown in the old RIVER STREET neighborhood hoping that this restaurant would have something that would satisfy my desperate craving for a great bowl of "Won Ton Mein". 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

    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
