    Relatively decent spot. There are a lot better in the area coming from someone who is a Vietnamese food fanatic. The pho is ok, not very flavorful broth or the freshest noodles. It's a bit too soft for me. The vermicelli is really good as well as the nem rolls. I like how they put the spring roll wrappers inside and makes it crispy! The strawberry smoothie is also really good!

    I could've sworn I reviewed Pho Que Huong before, but guess not. This is my favorite pho shop on-island thus far. This place is constantly busy, and for good reason. The food is unbelievable! Sometimes there's a line out the door, but the team is efficient--so always wait! This location is in Chinatown on Maunakea. If you're lucky, you can snag a metered parking spot nearby. Pho Que Huong is super clean, and I love how they decorate for holidays. Family-owned, this local business is very welcoming. Plenty of tables. Clean restrooms for paying customers. The food and drink are made with utmost care. The produce is always fresh and clean. The pho broth is unmatched. Not too sweet, lovely and aromatic. Portions are generous for the price point. Vietnamese coffee is a must! Strong and sweet--yum! The spring rolls even taste "healthy" here in that they're not too oily, and made with fresh ingredients. The customer service is always on-point, whether eating in or taking out. Note: They do not offer XL size for takeout. I think it's sweet they don't advertise otherwise, since they don't have the proper containers for that amount of food. Be sure to check out this authentic Vietnamese spot!

    Fire spot for pho! Definitely go here to get your fix. Quick service and pho is a good portion. This is a medium and small if I recall. Lots of seating. Parking is street and paid lots (:

    I asked my coworker who's a Vietnamese chef, that when she's tired of cooking all day, but wants to eat good Vietnamese food, where would she go? And her answer was this place and it did not disappoint! Located where the old Rice Paper and Pho My Lan used to be in Chinatown. Dining tables and chairs that can be combined for bigger or smaller parties alike. Note that it may be a little tight in some aisle ways, when maneuvering through. The service here is quick and efficient. And even though they can get really busy at times, they're still cranking out the food and beverages in a timely manner. As for the food, it's definitely comforting and delicious. The different pho broths (chicken, beef, etc) are all just right, not too oily, not too salty. I didn't even have to add in any condiments to enhance the flavor. The Banh Xeo is a huge portion, that can be shared amongst a party of 2-4. Street parking is located right out front, there's also a parking structure out back, with an entrance into the establishment directly from the parking structure. I will definitely be coming back here for more!

    Pho was amazing. Not a fan of the wings or shrimp eggrolls. Non of us really liked it. Waitress was super nice. She was a little busy but always served with a smile and happily

    I haven't braved any yet, but you know this is a legit place if it has goat dishes on the menu. We've tried many different dishes and each one has been delicious! The ingredients are so fresh, especially the veggies. The rare beef salad and steamed duck salads were yummy. I've never had steamed duck before, and the meat was very tender and not as oily as the roasted style. Their pho is top notch, as well as the dry noodle fried with sauce meats served with broth on the side. The banh xeo (rice crepe) was immense, must have been about 1.5 ft in diameter! It was so huge it was served on a platter, along with lettuce and veggies. It was also nice and crispy on the edges, filled with the usual pork and bean sprouts. So far this place ranks in my top 2 Vietnamese restaurants that I've tried on Oahu. I'll definitely be back to try more of their dishes, of which there are a huge selection, and maybe even one with goat soon!

    I think I messed up. I really wanted pho, but I didn't explore the menu pasted the first couple of pages. I wanted the spicy beef soup but I didn't care for what else was in it. So my dumb safe self ordered the won ton min. Asked if it could be spicy and the man said yes, but it came out regular. Ok, then my dumb self realized why one of my friends put siracha in his pho. And that's what I did and it was perfect! However, I should've looked through the menu more because the other customers coming in were ordering pho and I feel like I really missed out. Service was cordial but not overly friendly. I will have to come back and try the pho next time.

    Heavy congested self craving for comfort soup and the excellent YELP reviews brought me to Pho Que Huong. Once I entered their doors I was reminded I had already been once before, led by Terry K and in good company of a bunch of other yelpers..! Food is still consistent and of good quality. The combination pho the other day really hit the spot. Location is convenient when I am doing my shopping in Chinatown. Situated on Maunakea St, there are metered street parking spots as well as multiple lots surrounding the area. I even noticed a side door leading in from one of those municipal lots!

    Rare beef salad
    Jianna I.

    AMAZING Vietnamese food! I live in the Bay Area, but really this is the best viet food I've had. Pho broth was so flavorful. All the veggies were so fresh. You NEED to get the rare steak salad - very generous serving of meat along with fresh and flavorful onions and veggies. My husbands chicken vermicelli bowl was so yummy and the grilled chicken was perfectly cooked. definitely give this place a try if you're in the Honolulu area!

    Combination pho (large)

    It's been raining so much all week wanted was a hot bowl of noodles. Cravings satisfied! My husband ordered the Bun Bo Hue and I got a large combination pho. The soup was flavorful and we loved all the extra veggies and condiments. The only feedback we had was the soup wasn't hot on the Bun Bo Hue, it was warm but my husband likes it HOT. Also the tendon and pork hock was a little tough to chew. Overall still a great experience and we enjoyed the authenticity.

    I have been going to Lam's kitchen for a long time. We had planned to go there again, but then I heard they were remodeling. Phở Quê Hương was suggested since it was right next door. OK! I love Pho! Ordering was SUPER EASY - the lady came by, and I was seriously impressed that she did not write anything down. Look, we only ordered 2 pho and their chicken with fish sauce but still..... we both ordered combination pho with different choices. I ordered a large and my friend ordered the regular. The pho came really fast YAY!!!!!! The server mumbled something about brisket - which I ordered and I said YES and he passed me the bowl. I was ready to eat when my friend said, "hey, check your bowl because I ordered tripe". I looked and YEP a curly piece of tripe was staring me in the face. OK no problem. We traded bowls. We were both eating and enjoying our pho. BTW it came with lots of sprouts and basil, lemon, the usual. The pho was DELICIOUS! I was enjoying and enjoying and then.... what? Both bowls had tripe. Both bowls had various pieces of unknown meat. We couldn't tell which bowl was the large.... So, yes it was impressive that she didn't write anything down; that's because they put in anything they wanted to! What the ????? hahahahaha Was it good? YES. Was it worth the price? YES. Would be 5 stars but I need to dock one star because.... please, give us what we ordered not what you want to give us. BTW the chicken with fish sauce was really good!

    Solid Vietnamese restaurant one of my Go Tos to satisfy my Pho cravings. They have Med, Large and XL sizes! They have a pretty extensive menu so theres something for everyone. Service is efficient and they have a lot of seating so you rarely need to wait and they can accommodate larger parties. Parking is meter on the street and other public parking lots throughout Chinatown. Its usually busy for lunch and dinner convenient location on Maunakea street.

    How hard is it to find parking here?

    It depends on what time you're going. There is a public parking spot nearby and there is parking in front of the restaurant. All paid parking spots and it's for an hour. It's hit or miss really.

    Do you guys take reservations?

    They do for big groups. Just call ahead

    Is your guys restaurant open on New Year's Day?

    Yes we are open today!

    All I can say about eating at the - "Fun Station" is that it's more fun when eating with a friend,…read more& getting a 20% discount.........well, that's just an extra bonus! So the thing about coming to Fun Station is the "suspended flying noodle thingy" which I didn't go for, but if you like Instagramable stuffs, then I supposed you would probably go for that flying-noodle dish. As for me, I mainly came to try their Minute Chicken Cake Noodles, and as a bonus......... I actually got a 20% discount thanks to my friend - Jennifer C. who let a Bruddah know about da DEALAGES in da Sunday food section newspaper, as they had a coupon! The Sunday morning when I came with my friend, I can clearly see that this restaurant was thriving, as every table in the restaurant was taken. Fun Station specializes in noodles, but if you're not into that, they do serve other items like - soups, vegetable dishes, rice plates, & porridge (jook). Upon looking over the menu, we ordered the following items - 1. Frrrrrrried Chicken Wings ($9.95) for an appetizer 2. Minute Chicken Cake Noodles ($17.95 - minus da 20% coupon DEALAGES) 3. Beef Brisket Tendon & Won Ton in soup ($18.95) What can I say about da grub??? Da chicken wings came out hot & crispy. Although they featured only "flats" vs. drums (I like drums), I must say da wings was nicely executed. As for the Minute Chicken Cake Noodles.........nicely plated on a fancy smanshy panda plate. The cake noodles weren't drowning in gravy, so the noodles stayed crispy on the dish. I really liked how they did this dish, and would easily come back here to eat it again. My friend had the Beef Brisket Tendon & Won Ton soup. The dish looked good, and there weren't any complaints, so I take it that it was pretty ono! Overall, a very satisfying meal and the service here was on point, as the staff was friendly & very efficient. Easy 5 stars for the Minute Chicken Cake Noodles! Chance 'em!

It's tucked…read moreinto a small strip mall, the dining room is no frills and if someone told me it was just another average neighborhood Chinese restaurant, I'd probably believe them. Then the food starts arriving. We ordered way more than we needed and almost everything impressed me. The chow fun was cooked exactly the way I like it. Chewy, smoky and never overcooked. My only complaint was that it leaned a little saltier than I prefer, but it was still very good. The Hainan chicken was the surprise of the meal. Perfectly tender with an incredible ginger sauce that I'd happily put on just about anything. Even the dishes I normally avoid won me over. I've never been much of a lotus root person, but theirs was crisp, savory and honestly delicious. The wontons were another highlight. Since we skipped the noodles, they generously gave us extra wontons instead, which was a really thoughtful touch. What really pushed this place from good to memorable, though, was the staff. We were there with our two and four year old and they couldn't have been kinder. They brought over little toys to keep the kids occupied, checked on us throughout the meal and made us feel genuinely welcome. None of it felt forced. It was just warm, thoughtful hospitality and that's something I always remember long after I've forgotten exactly what I ate. The bathroom situation isn't ideal, you have to use the one outside the restaurant, but that's really my only complaint beyond the slightly salty chow fun. This isn't the place I'd recommend for date night or a long evening out. It's the kind of neighborhood restaurant you walk into expecting very little, then leave thinking, that was a lot better than it had any right to be. We'll definitely be back.

Their noodles are made in-house (following authentic Sanuki traditions from Japan) and cooked daily.

What's even more impressive- patrons can watch the chefs make the food right in front of them (making for a cool dining experience). Highly recommend getting there early- lines are insane! But for the most part, the line moves fast because meals are dished out quickly and guests eat and leave in a timely manner. And prices are relatively low compared to other places. I ordered the #2 Creamy Broth- creamy chicken broth topped with juicy pork chashu and a flavorful seasoned egg 10/10! This was absolute fire!!! My wife ordered the Chicken Katsu- lightly battered, well seasoned and packed with flavor. We also ordered a side of Shrimp Tempura and Potato Croquettes. Both were equally delicious, but the potato croquettes hit the spot with a well seasoned potato mash, encased in a golden deep fried breadcrumb 10/10! It's an absolute must!

I've always loved the Plaza, empty and partly abandoned, bec/ the design is conducive to good airflow and cooling, a much underappreciated architectural element in modern downtowns. But the bums and indigent love it more and sadly always leave some je ne sais quoi. Seasons finds itself across from the dim sum behemoth in Chinatown, Legends, but that's a different flavor profile. Still, quite nice to have variety.
