Unfortunately I don't remember the name of the drinks except for the Lychee Martini of course . Lol then we ordered the food. We ordered the pork chop, which was phenomenal and the dumplings too, and OMG this was the best dining experience I've ever had. The dumplings were so light and the sauce and broth definitely made this dish amazing! We also had the shaking beef and I have to say Nathan (the chef) really knows how to cook!! Thank you Nathan for one of the best dining experiences I've ever had! We will definitely be back for more.

The noodles had a great chewy texture, and the star of the dish was definitely the sauce. It had that classic Vietnamese-Cantonese flavor, perfectly balanced between sweet and savory, coating every bite of noodles without being too heavy. The BBQ pork was quite dry, the wontons were generously filled, and the soup on the side was clean and comforting. The steamed wontons with soy sauce were also delicious and packed with flavor. Portions were generous, prices were reasonable, and everything tasted fresh. I'd happily order this again.

We ordered the plain pho for my child, and the flavor was just okay. I don't know if it's because it was a plain bowl and the flavor was naturally more mild, or if it came from a different pot, but either way, it was pretty meh. I've definitely had better. My husband and I both got the bun thit nuong. The portion was huge and could easily have been shared. The meat was really flavorful, and the fish sauce was also very good. The pork spring rolls were ok, nothing special. As for the ambiance, it definitely had more of a hole-in-the-wall feel. I'm not sure if another party had just left, but the area where we sat wasn't very clean and the table/area felt really sticky. Overall, I probably wouldn't come back. Maybe we just caught them on an off day, but based on the high rating, I was expecting more.

The restaurant was clean and spacious. We ordered the sweet garlic tenders, chan chan kimpbap, and rose tteokbokki with wide glass noodles and cheese.

We tried to order beer as it was on the menu, but apparently they don't serve alcohol at this location and the menu they use is Irvine's menu. We heard another group come in after us try to order alcohol too and were told they don't serve it. Would probably be good to update the menus or at least include a sign on it that they don't serve alcohol? The fried chicken came plain and were soo crispy! I'm glad the sauces came on the side because we were not a huge fan of them. The sweet garlic somehow tasted like chocolate. Both were pretty thick and sweet.

They are so fast!! Always ready within minutes of our calling in the order. There isn't anything here we weren't happy about trying~ EVERYTHIBG tried so far have all been delicious. Appetizer staples are definitely the crispy rice (DONT FORGET TO CHECK FOR their magical tasty sauces like the SPICY MAYO EEL SAUCE) Our takeout is prepared well and I don't always check for utensils, so if needed, check, as I don't always get them but no biggie- The sauces though, can't forget the sauces. Of their soups, we always enjoy the udon, and the black ramen best so far. One of these times we need to dine in for the full experience. It's a very welcoming atmosphere. Staff are always kind and helpful. I'm sure we will be back again sooner than later.

It's a really cool street vendor Japan vibe with the decor. We ordered the Vegas Roll, the Edamame and the Black Ramen. Last time I came here years ago the food was okay but nothing spectacular. The Vegas roll was arguably one of the best sushi rolls I've ever had in my entire life and the ramen was the type you finish the entire bowl broth included. Last time I came the Chashu was chewy but they must've figured it out because it was super tender this time. In addition they have awesome drink deals including first Sapporo draft 99 cents and then 2.99 for each one after. Highly highly recommend this place and will be coming back frequently. The front man (I assume owner/manager) was also supper attentive and nice. 10/10

My wife and I were looking around for a good bowl of Japanese ramen noodles, and this place popped…read moreup as a place we hadn't tried before, so off we went for lunch. We had actually expected just the usual soup ramen place, but later discovered that, although a view varieties of ramen noodles are offered on their menu, their specialty was in fact the dried version of a bowl of soup ramen noodles, or what our server referred to as a bowl of "reverse" ramen noodles, better known as Mazemen noodles.... sounded really yummy so far as I have always preferred dry noodles to soup ones. So, my wife went ahead and ordered a bowl of spicy California Tonkotsu ramen noodles, and I went with the Saitama Chicken Mazemen noodles..... and some handmade spicy wonton and fried Karaage Chicken on the side. Our food came out pretty fast, super hot, super fresh, and super delicious! I tried some of my wife's soup ramen, and yes, had great flavor... not too salty, and perfectly medium firm ramen noodles. As for my Mazemen noodles....woweee!.... this was my first time trying Mazemen noodles, with a large board on the wall with instructions on how Wadaya's Mazemen noodles should be eaten. When the instructions were followed, I dug straight in and...mmmmm good! The combination of ingredients in the bowl.... peppered ground chicken, scallions, chives, poached egg, minced garlic, fish umami, and seaweed flakes.... when all tossed together just made for an amazingly delicious bowl of noodles! I really loved and enjoyed it so very much! The Chicken karaage and spicy wontons were very delicious too and went great with our noodles. Other than that, very cute and cozy ambiance... like a little Japanese ramen place, service was excellent.. our server was so nice, so friendly, so attentive, and so helpful.... this made for just the perfect lunch! This place may not be as high profiled as other more popular and well known brands of ramen places, but it's definitely one of the best we've ever tried, and we'll definitely be back soon.

To my surprise, it was a good experience that we had. The shop was small, but the staff has a workflow nailed down. The parking was not too terrible on a weekday evening -- I was worried about the warnings, so we parked on the street. When walking to the hotel, I saw that there were many open spaces in the parking lot! We had the chicken cartillage and the calamari for appetizers. The cartillage was good, but portion was quite small. Some additional seasoning/salt would have also made it much better! The calamari was definitely VERY different from other places, but I liked the batter texture. What I loved about the ramen here is that they let you customize from the noodle size, texture, spice level, and the salt level! I always prefer the thicker noodle type, so I found it comforting to be able to request it at no extra charge. Beware there is extra charge for Spice level 4 & 5! I had the Garlic Tonkotsu ramen, which was flavorful and not too salty/creamy. My fiance had the Tan Tan ramen at level 5 spice, which he thought it was not spicy (it was for me!) and not as flavorful as what I ordered. Overall, I would definitely revisit this shop next time I'm in Oahu!

Everyone was so warm, friendly and accommodating. Plus, if you're lucky, you might even get a surprise visit from Mama herself! I love Thai food and have tried so many different spots but I have to say... I think I just found my new favorite!

The Chinese broccoli dish with crispy pork belly was just ok. Probably would not order that again, not because there was anything necessarily wrong with the dish but compared to the other dishes we had. We sat at the bar and service was average. When we finished eating we sat around for a long time and no one came up to us to ask if we wanted dessert or to clear our dishes. We also had to grab someone's attention to get the check and it took awhile for them to come back and process the payment. I would love to come back and try their khao soi as it's one of my favorite dishes.

We ordered the Hu Tieu Trieu Chau Hoang Thanh and Hu Tieu Hai San, both with egg noodles. The food was amazing, especially for the value. Our two bowls came out to roughly $32 total, and the portions were huge. They're very generous with the protein, noodles, and broth, and honestly, my partner and I probably could have shared one bowl and still been satisfied. The restaurant has a very old-school, no-frills feel where the focus is clearly on the food rather than the decor or having a polished dining room. The service is similarly straightforward and efficient. The staff wasn't overly conversational, but they were kind, attentive when needed, and we had no issues at all. I've seen some reviews mention the service negatively, but that wasn't our experience. Overall, I really enjoyed Trieu Chau Restaurant. The portions are generous, the prices are reasonable, and most importantly, the food is delicious. Definitely a solid spot for Hu Tieu.

It was a hole in the wall kind of restaurant, but over the years business kept growing and they eventually renovated the place and it looks a lot better. Typically when I'm craving a delicious bone broth soup with noodles, this is one of the places I go to. I love the Hu Tieu Nam Vang dac biet with thin rice noodles. The rice noodles are chewy and soaks up the delicious broth with every bite. I also like that this place provides pickled jalapeños and satay chili oil. Another item I often get is the fried crab cake with plum sauce. Thankfully this place is close to home, I can't wait to go back again.
