First time time trying this place and man was it worth the trip! The pork was so good along with the crispy noodles , will definitely come back again . Especially now that I don't have to find parking in Chinatown. read more

This is a little whole in the wall at the Aiea Shopping Center. This only a take out spot. They only allow two patrons inside for ordering at a time. There is a lady behind the register who takes your order and two men cooking. One cuts the meat and chicken and the other does the frying and putting plates together. Once you order, the lady asks you to wait outside until your order is ready. They have a simple menu which consists of: - Roast Duck with a yummy sauce - Char Sui - Roast Pork - Roast Chicken - Ginger Chicken - Char Sui Fried Rice - Oyster Sauce Chicken - Crispy Gau Gee You can either order by the pound or in a plate lunch. The plate lunch consists of rice and a piece of crispy gau gee with your choice of protein. There is usually a long line, especially during lunch and if you get there too late, they run have limited items available. We ordered the Roast Duck & Char Sui plate and a half a pound of Roast Duck. Very tasty and lots of flavor. The sauce they give is also very good. I would say get there early if you want to get certain items. read more

Ducklicious! Roast pork cravings? Onolicious Ginger chicken desires?! This is your one stop shop! Get here early or order ahead because this local run kitchen sells out of dishes! Especially during holidays! With Chinese New Year is right around the corner, place your orders in soon. We usually pick up a duck plate, roast pork and/or ginger chicken when we swing by. Today we picked up all three! My Dad will love a mixed plate of duck, ginger chicken and roast pork! We ordered the duck plate with fried rice. It comes with a gau gee and duck sauce. There's also cabbage under the duck. Then a side order of ginger chicken and roast pork ends. The kitchen is small so they want you to place your order at the counter, pay for your order, and then wait outside until you are called back in to pick up your order. In my humble opinion this kitchen has one of the best roast duck and ginger chicken on the island. The duck is seasoned well and the ginger chicken sauce is equally delicious, full of ginger and green onion flavor. The roast pork is a little on the dry side today. Great for cooking with green beans. We couldn't finish the plate lunch. The fried rice had large chunks of char siu meat as well. I eat the cabbage and pass on the rice. Prices have definitely gone up here, but we will still patronize this local gem. read more

10 years later, and I am proud to say Roast Duck Kitchen is still my #1 go to for crispy pork, roast duck, ginger chicken, cake noodle, and the crowd favorite gaugee. Any time there's a potluck I never have to think twice of what to bring and where to get it because it will ALWAYS be Roast Duck Kitchen's gaugee. I just call up the day before and tell them how many and time for pick up and they are always very accommodating. They also fry them when you pick up so they are hot and fresh when you get there. I'll always pick up a few lbs of pork belly or ginger chicken with cake noodle just for me because i will never get tired of their food. this truly hidden mom and pop shop will forever be one of my favorites. read more

It's ok. China town is the best though, but good alternative. But is a good option if you don't have to go into the busy downtown area

Totally worthy of having roast duck in their name! Best to call and pre-order as they sell out by the lunch hour. The roast duck is soft tasty & crispy. Located at Aiea shopping center (same location where there's Times Supermarket and Aiea Bowl). Roast Duck kitchen is located on the second floor. Take out only . read more

I've heard that in Aiea they have the tastiest roast duck but I was too late sold out...only left was char-siu and roast pork... I ask what time roast duck sells out, he replied it all depends...they'll cut it or prepare it as you order..cashier sever asked me to wait...then I realized I wanted the yellow mustard so I asked if they have it. He says, it's 50cents.. how many you want with a not so friendly face..first I said two but changed my mind to one., he says next time I charge you! He put the mustard in my package! Without charge! (But I saw a Custoner go out with shoyu or special sauce I have no idea). To be nice I put $1 in that tip jar! It was my first time hearing word of mouth of their tasty roast duck! I normally don't like to give reviews like this, I am not sure I'll be back traveling from afar to this place for I know other places that sells roast duck...without the charge of mustard and maybe shoyu?? I guess he didn't like the idea I return to ask for it? For others please ask him in advance if he'll charge you for their mustard when ordering whatever they left in stock! read more

Roast Duck Kitchen - Chinese Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

Ordered one whole roast duck and one pins of roast pork. The roast duck is ok. The roast pork is usually very good especially the skin, so delicious. However today the roast duck was cold almost refrigerator cold probably from hanging outside the warmer for so long. The roast pork did not have the typical beautifully roasted skin instead it was very thin and again almost refrigerator cold. Understand that space is limited but kind of makes me a leery of being to wait outside after ordering, too many customers asking for choice pieces?? If distance is not an issue I will usually go to Kevin's. read more

For being voted best roast duck on the island, Roast Duck Kitchen did NOT disappoint- it was phenomenal!! I called ahead to order a whole roast duck, chopped, for lunar new year. They also sell steamed folded buns if you prefer it that way, but we made our own bing to go with it. The duck is absolutely luscious, and a very agreeable price for the portion and quality. We were just eating it and moaning because of how good it was we crisped up the skin in the oven at 350f for 10min before serving it, and we are absolutely saving the duck fat drippings for other cooking projects. The quality of the meat was great and the flavor just unbeatable, and you know it's gonna be good when the store has cardboard box floor covers under the chopping area. Already planning our next order and to try their roast pork too! read more

The roast pork skin wasn't crispy and the flavor was weak. The roast duck was wonderful though. And don't forget to get the Gau gee.. Probably the best around. read more

Roast Duck Kitchen got voted #1 for Roast Pork. I can believe it. There was a small line of people outside when I went. They kind of yell out your order when ready. No loitering around inside - order, then wait outside until they call your name. 1lb of pork felt light, but I didn't measure it. The roast pork looked really good and I forgot to take a picture! The skin could have been more crunchy but that's why we have air fryers right??? Overall, very tasty and I can believe it's definitely up there overall! Easy to get to if you are at Times. Just go up the escalator and they are right there! Tasty for sure! read more

Best char siu and roast pork outside of china town. But they sell out fast! My friend also loves their cake noodles.

Didn't know what to order between the roast pork and roast duck so the lady behind the counter recommended doing a half and half plate. I went with her recommendation with fried rice and it was pretty good. I preferred the roast duck but the pork was good as well. Also, first time having gaugee and those are delicious. The placed is tucked away in this shopping mall near the pancake house and McDonalds with no indoor seating. Strictly to go. Recommend if you're in the mood for roast duck. read more

I thought I left a review here long ago regarding the lady at the front. But just demolished the food in my truck and its so good gotta leave a review. Is this lady at the front new owner? Not the same last I came. This one was nice. The roast pork, wow, so nice looking, like perfect beige color and presentation so nice. Very juicy and all pieces had crispy skin. The best in hawaii hands down read more

Best roast duck on the island and charsiu cooked to perfection and so soft, both was so tasty. I can eat a whole duck by myself. Thank you Roast Duck Kitchen for keeping the food the same as the original owners! read more

I went around 2:00pm during the week and I was the only customer. Ordered the roast chicken plate which came with rice, cabbage and one crispy gau gee. The gau gee was so good.!The majority of the chicken was white meat. I prefer dark meat but didn't specify so that was a bit of a bummer. Chicken had a good flavor and came with a dipping sauce. I preferred the chicken plain. Overall, tasty chicken at a reasonable price. They had be in and out in about 5 minutes. I'd return to try the roast pork and roast duck. Not much of an ambiance. No tables inside but there are tables in a common area outside. This is largely a "to go" establishment. read more

I had the roast duck plate with cake noodles. It also came with a crispy gau gee and cabbage. Although the roast duck was room temp and not hot, it tasted really good. The cake noodles were very crispy which is how I like it. And the gau gee - so much meat packed into the wonton. Later that night, I took the skin from the roast duck, put it into a bao bun with cilantro, green onion and hoisin sauce = a happy me ;) Located in Aiea shopping Center in the back of the mall - same floor as McDonald's - there is lots of parking and tables outside to eat nearby. read more

IYKYK. This place is located in the Aiea Shopping Center, same level as McDonalds. They've been around for a long time. Can't believe I didn't go sooner.

Got whole roast duck. It was good but not absolute best . Some sections were a bit overcooked. Overall, we enjoyed every bit since we love roast duck. Needed more containers of the sauce, especially with a whole duck order. read more

Top notch duck. We came yesterday around 3 in the afternoon. The place was empty (no line). They still have roast pork, cha siu, and roast duck. We bought 1 lb of roast pork and 1/2 roast duck. By the time we got back to our resort, the roast pork skin is no longer crispy (our fault) but the taste is solid. It is not overly fatty either which I like. I just love their duck though. No fishy/funky smell...in fact it smells fragrant and wonder. Not overly salty. Just the perfect ratio of seasonings. read more

The best roast duck on the island. Flavorful and tender. Price is on par with Chinatown shops and is actually $1 cheaper. The fried gaugee is soooo good. The best I've ever had. I keep coming back for more. They aren't cheap on the meat. The filling is well flavored and tender with a wonderfully crisp wrapper. Service is great. They have a restroom available at the end of the hall. Just ask for the key. The restroom was surprisingly clean and appeared recently renovated. My go-to place for roast duck. read more

Supposed to be 1# each. He told me one is heavier than a pound so I paid extra. When I weighed it with the container, one was a pound and the other a bit over.

Ordered in advance , one day prior to picking up @ 12pm. Called in my order of 2 whole roast Ducks , uncut & the gentlemen on the phone took my order perfectly! This place is known for their Roast Duck! Got there early & asked the lady behind the counter, if I could pickup early & yes I could , very little space inside , no dining in & she told me , she would call. After a short wait my order was packaged & ready! Total about $40 for a whole roast Duck which I ordered uncut. Traveled to visit friends in Kona , Hawaii & I have to say that was the tastiest Roast Duck I have ever had! read more

The food is great. Some of the best on this side of the island. You'd be lucky to find anything left after the lunch hours

Food was good. We visited the store at 11 am and they already ran out of the roast duck. I ended up eating only cold ginger chicken and roast pork. I was hoping to get the roast duck which defeated the purpose for that first visit because we were too late in getting it. Next time I should do a phone order or get that when they first open. The pork tasted very porky and the cold ginger chicken was okay. The service was pretty nice. The wait was outside the store and someone came to take the order. read more

Okay. Sorry it took so long for my follow up. Went back for the Cold Ginger Chicken ($16) Was looking at the price and it was kinda high but, was told it was good. Take a look at my photo. Hope you are hungry because it can feed two or one hungry person. Ordered my meal with fried rice (add $1) which was two large scoops with a lot of goodies in it and two crispy gau gee. It is large and good for the price. This Chinese guy will definitely go back for this. So, I got a change of hart and want to give the roast duck and pork a second chance. Stay tune. read more

This spot is straight heat. I always come here for their plate lunch with the cake noodle upgrade. It's honestly a great deal since it comes with your choice of protein, cake noodle, cabbage, and a gau gee. They even give the sauce on the side so the cake noodle stays nice and crispy. This time we got two duck plate lunches and a pound of roast pork. Everything was tasty and delicious, and this place is always my go-to for duck and roast pork. read more

The best place for roast pork! Roast Duck Kitchen has beautiful roast pork with crispy skin and a good amount of meat. I find that many other roast pork places use extremely fatty pieces where you get very little meat on each piece, but we don't have that issue with Roast Duck Kitchen. The best thing is their off cuts - it's $11.50 for about a pound of the end cuts of pork, which are less pretty but just as delicious as the regular pork. When the regular is $19.50, if the pork isn't a gift, it's a no brainer to go for their end cuts! They aren't always available especially if you go later in the day, but it's worth asking about. read more

I finally tried here after how long... Coworkers decided it's a toast duck kind of day.. I got a plate with ginger chicken and roast duck. The prices have gone up, it's now $17. Inflation definitely hit. The ginger chicken is really good! The ginger sauce is a bit different, not as oily as I am used to. they have bigger green onion chunks and not salty. The roast duck was a little dry and I had more bone pieces than meat. sad. Fried gaugee is always a yummy staple. Anything fried is good. It satisfied the lunch craving. read more

I wish I could leave a better review but I can't. This was my second time giving Roast Duck Kitchen a try. The first time they were out of roast duck for lunch plates so I got the cold ginger chicken. Nothing special at all. It was overly salty, chicken was tough, rice tasted old. Okay, whatever. It's just a take out Chinese lunch place with huge portions. My BF likes it for their roast pork, he enjoys going there. We went again today after months - maybe a year has passed? I was super excited to get the roast duck lunch plate. At first there was miscommunication where they said there was no roast duck. Then as I was prepared to not order they said there was enough for a lunch plate portion only. Okay, weird. But whatever. I got it with cake noodles and was extremely excited to try it. $17.00 for a plate of roast duck, cake noodles, and 2 gau gee. I didn't even get to try the food as the moment I opened up the plate and sauces, there was a huge roach floating in the sauce. I closed up the box, dumped the sauces down the drain and I will never come back ever again. Please see photo for reference. If it was a little tiny baby roach that was easily missed, I might've dumped the sauce and attempted to eat the plate. But this was a huge roach, floating on top. They either saw it and thought nothing of it... or...? I don't know. I can't even make an excuse because the sauce was capped. It's not like you're a restaurant and you look away for a minute and a fly lodges into your food. This was complete sanitary negligence. Save your time and get a plate from Duk Kee's in Kaimuki instead. read more
