    FINALLY!! This has been a loooong time coming. In California, Mother's Day 2020, we were still under COVID precautions, so there was no eating in. I was craving dim sum, plugged in my DoorDash order for THW in Irvine, and received...ramen and octopus balls. Driver got my order switched up it seems. Fast forward 6 years to Hawai'i, I get an IG ad for 50% on some items at their Royal Hawaiian location. I share the post to my husband's IG, the good man paid heed and drove us to Waiks. BBQ pork buns are the BIZZZZNESSSSSS. Mango crab rolls were too rich for me. Siu mai was nice and flavorful. Garlic green beans were *chef's kiss*. XLB stuck to the liner so I was sad about wasted soup. Pan fried chicken dumplings...I easily could've eaten another order! Bright and airy interior...lighting was weird though, would dim intermittently. Easy to book on OpenTable...in fact, I changed my reservation three times en route because of traffic. Park on level 3, location is a quick walk from the garage, and just across Hermes if you need a landmark haha. Also, they validate parking! Not sure what happened with the bill, but quick glance appeared to be 20% off with local ID...husband just let it go. It prob ended up 6 of one, half a dozen of the other.

    Dare I say this was the best dim sum I've had in the USA?! It was SOOOO good. Every single dish came out piping hot, which I appreciated because you could tell it was cooked to order. The char siu bao was sooooooo tasty, savory, sweet and chewy. Absolute perfection. I also loved the deep fried shrimp/pork dumplings it was kinda mochi-like. The fried rice was huge and so yummy and the green beans were perfectly crunchy and not too saucy. The bill was $69 for 4 people, plus I got 20% off for being local! Such a good deal! I can't believe how delicious this was. Service was attentive and the restaurant is clean and air conditioned well for a hot summers day. They also validate parking in the Royal Hawaiian Shopping center. This is my new go to dim sum restaurant!!! I'm craving it already writing this.

    Spicy wontons
    Hailley O.

    I was excited to try Tim Ho Wan for the first time, especially since it's a highly rated restaurant. I had been craving dim sum, and it was a nice experience with high-quality food. We ordered a variety of dishes, including the deep fried eggplant with shrimp, steamed rice rolls with minced beef, fried dumplings with pork and dried shrimp, spicy wontons, siu mai, and the lava custard sesame balls. Everything was delicious, but my favorite was the deep fried eggplant with shrimp. As an eggplant lover, I appreciated how well it was prepared, and the shrimp were large and juicy. Each dish was fresh and flavorful. I do wish there was a slightly larger menu selection. I was hoping to order egg custard tarts for dessert, but they didn't have it. Fortunately, the lava custard sesame balls were yummy! Service was efficient, and the restaurant itself was spacious and clean. While Tim Ho Wan is a bit pricier than some other dim sum spots, it's kinda expected given its well-known name and for being in Waikiki. Overall, it's a solid choice when you're craving quality dim sum and you're near Waikiki!

    Great service. Good medium size menu. Order a lot of good signature dishes, my favorite was the sea bass, Chinese broccoli and pork streamed rice roll! Yum

    Located in the mall on the 3rd floor so location may be a little hard to find. They do a happy hour special for food so check that out, I believe it starts at 2pm. They have all your classic dim sum choices and the food successfully satisfied my cravings.

    Baked bbq bun still the best in the workd. Siumai was so juicy, stir fried noodle lots of good wokhei, add a liitle hot sauce & u r in heaven; bbq pork rice roll excellent. Vegetable was a bit overcooked & soggy. Sesame lava ball (salty egg yolk) was great, beef brisket noodle had good light broth, some brisket pieces were too chewy & big, sticky rice in lotus leaf great

    I dropped by this dim sum place a few weeks ago at the Royal Hawaiian Center. I went during happy hour but unfortunately, the baked barbecue pork buns were not part of the special. Nevertheless, I still ordered them along with the pork siu mai. Both were made to order. The pork buns rock as always and the siu mai was very juicy and piping hot.

    I have been to several Tim Ho Wan's - the Hawaii location was my first one. Here are my fav dishes - spicy cucumber, har gow (shrimp dumplings), spicy wontons, green beans and flat rice wrapping with shrimps and chive. The spicy sauce in the other countries has more of a punch. My kid really enjoyed the milk tea with brown sugar jelly. The servers were amazing / so friendly and cordial. The decor was unique- with pots on the ceilings and amazing pics of food all around. The taste in other countries shows more umpf compared to the Hawaii location. We came in at 2pm and stumbled upon a few items on the happy hour menu.

    Those of you tourists may recognize this establishment. They have a few locations in the US - Vegas, So Cal, Houston, NY... I wanted to give it a higher star rating but it's mediocre at best Food 3/5 Service 3/5 Ambiance 3.5/5 Tried a few items: BBQ pork pan fried noodles - very oily so consider that before ordering this. Shrimp and pork steamed dumplings Pork dumplings Veggie dumplings - not recommend. It was not good IMO. And if you're trying to be healthy or vegan, this is not the restaurant for you. Taro dessert It's ok. If craving dumplings, you may get your fix. They do have Happy Hour. Since it's Waikiki, Kama'ainas get discounts bur apparently they do not provide Kama'aina discounts on weekends.

    Baked char siu buns
    Kathy L.

    Ever since they switched locations, it seems the quality of their food has gone down. You used to be able to taste the consistency in good taste, texture, and freshness every time. Now, it's the opposite. I heard they were Michelin recommended at one point. Not sure if they've been able to uphold and maintain that reputation, though. The texture of their shrimp look-fun was incredibly mushy and wet on my last visit. None of their food tasted as hot nor as fresh as it used to. I'm pretty sure their prices have also increased. The parking lot is a bit of a hassle getting in and out of and always seems crowded. Their new location doesn't feel as open and airy as their last. Rather, it feels a bit cramped and not as welcoming with the artificial lighting. Sadly, I don't think I'll be coming back anytime soon.

    Char Siu Rice Roll
    Scott H.

    Tim Ho Wan (THW) is a place I've wanted to try for awhile... being at a conference at the Sheraton, I took the opportunity to grab lunch there. The menu has a good selection of traditional dim sum. I knew my stomach was bigger than my eyes, so I tried to tamper my order. I went with steamed lettuce, the cucumber salad, and the Char Siu Rice roll. All of the dishes were good, with the rice roll as the stand out. The lettuce was good while the cucumber salad was a little underwhelming (it needed more cilantro). Service wise, the staff were very attentive and friendly.

    Wonton in spicy sauce
    Rosie T.

    My husband and I were so excited to eat at Tim Ho Wan, but when we got there, we weren't that impressed. The atmosphere was nice and quaint- nothing to rave about, and it was quiet since we got there before the lunch rush. We ordered the wontons in a spicy sauce, shrimp rice rolls, shu mai, daikon cake, spare ribs, stir-fried noodles with char shu pork, and the lava custard balls. Everything tasted okay to us; there was nothing to really rave about. We've eaten at many dim sum places, and we both felt this didn't compare to others we've tried. I felt like the food tasted a little sweeter than I'm used to, and a lot of it came out at room temperature. We both concluded that our favorite item on the menu was the lava custard balls. The lava balls were warm on the inside and crispy on the outside but everything else came out room temperature and oily. The service was lackluster as well. We both finished our water and didn't get a refill but once we asked for the check, we had refills of water. All in all, we both concluded that we won't be coming back to Tim Ho Wan. Prices were high, and we both concluded that we can go elsewhere like in Chinatown for better tasting dim sum.

    New location of Tim Ho Wan seems smaller but has nice ambiance. We came for early dinner because of the time zone difference, which just happened to be happy hour. They have 20% off and $5 drinks. We really liked our dim sum order: 1. Beef ribs - so well marinated, amazing flavor, a little bit fatty, on the oilier side, has potatoes underneath 2. Shrimp and pork footballs - is what I call them, the best quality footballs we think 3. Radish cake - was ok, a little soft and closer to Taiwanese style than HK style imo, and didn't like the sriracha sauce too much, not the best radish cake I've ever had but to me radish cake is like what I've heard people say about pizza - you can't go too wrong 4. Stir fry noodles with char siu- the star of the meal, they were thin and crispy and wok fried. No white onions which is good for my dietary restrictions. We loved this. 5. Lettuce with sauce - nice and light umami, we got our veggies in 6. Osthmanthus jelly with Goji berry - a nice dessert to cut the heavier dimsum dishes

Unfortunately, it was one of the biggest disappointments of my vacation. The Singapore crab completely missed the mark. Instead of the rich, savory, slightly sweet and spicy flavor I was expecting, it tasted like it was covered in plain tomato sauce with very little seasoning. There was no depth or authentic flavor at all. The salted egg yolk wings were just as disappointing. They were incredibly bland and lacked the rich, buttery, savory salted egg flavor that makes this dish so popular. I honestly don't understand why these are recommended as signature dishes. I came in with high expectations based on the reviews, but left wondering why anyone would recommend such bland, overly saucy food. There are far better places to experience authentic Singapore-style flavors. Worst meal of our trip.

    My wife and I had been craving good Chinese food for a while, so after finishing my workday in town…read moreand getting the suggestion from my wife that Chinese sounded good for takeout dinner, I crossed into Chinatown and tried Lee Ho Fook for the first time. The first thing I saw when I walked in was the owner making dumplings by hand. That immediately gave me the feeling I was in the right place. Growing up I watched my own Mom make our version of dumplings, so seeing that kind of care and craftsmanship felt familiar. The owner was warm and very welcoming, and as each dish was completed she brought it out fresh from the kitchen, which gave me a chance to taste the food while it was still steaming. It was hot, but I could not stop myself from sampling it :) Everything I ordered was delicious and clearly made fresh. I'll be honest though, watching the dumplings being prepared right in front of me was a real highlight. I'm sure that some of you out there can relate to this. I also had the chance to meet owner's mother and another gentleman who I believe may have been family, which added to the welcoming atmosphere. The restaurant is small, but it did not feel rushed. We had a good time talking story while the food was being prepared. It was a challenge for me to drive home with all that food in the back of my car. I was tempted to pull over and just indulge, but I remembered that I had to share it lol My summary? Good food, genuine hospitality, and a great first impression. I will definitely be back.

The minute chicken is nicely charred and flavorful with a little gravy. Their cake noodle is one of the best in town. Combine them and you have their signature dish. If you enjoy cake noodles then almost other dish w the cake noodles will probably satisfy. But if it's your first time, or you want to try their best dish then minute chicken w cake noodles is the way to go.

We like the lobster, honey walnut shrimp, salted fish egg white fried rice, fried tofu, spinach with thousand year old eggs and many more. Definitely a nostalgic spot for myself, and it's usually busy. Our lobster was small last time and the sauce was watery. But overall would recommend. Check it out for your Chinese food fix!

Adding in 18 percent gratuity on a party of 4 sneakily and asking for my signature after writing in their own tip is outrageous. I'm usually a 20 percent tipper, I respect wait staff and genuinely respect what they do. We are great patrons of every restaurant and all of my reviews have shown my appreciation of them. Doing this is deceptive, do yourself a favor, when having lunch, or dinner, check your tip portion of the receipt and be sure that they don't add in their own tip and total. Ken was the server's name. I had them reprint the ticket at that time.

    I haven't been here in a few YEARS after an okay experience my first time. However, friends…read moreinvited us here for a late dim sum a few weeks ago and we absolutely loved it. First off, no wait bc it was close to 1:30. Everything came out piping hot and fresh Out of all the dim sum places on the island, and I've tried them all, this is my new favorite Siu Mai 5/5 was my DD favorite Beef Ball had good flavor and texture Fried Pork Dumpling (ham siu gok) had water chestnut in it which was a first for me. But it worked! Egg tart 5/5 had a great crust and the bite with the filling was actually really good Ngl Pan fried Chives and Shrimp dumpling was tasty Definitely be back when I am back in town We also came here for dinner a few nights later. Note: they don't serve dim sum during dinner. There wasn't many seafood selection let alone fresh seafood. Clams were even out. Fresh Ong Choy and bbq pork was the highlights. Definitely more of a dim sum restaurant

    Jade's still a go-to dim sum option in town. Plentiful parking in the mall, and no wait at 11 am on…read morea Friday. Service is pretty quick. Can definitely find better dim sum on island but can't beat the convenience.

    I was recently invited to attend a dinner for my part time job where I wasn't really keen to…read morepartake but was heavily persuaded to join them at King Restaurant & Bar (KRB) where I gave in. What a blessing that was as I was impressed with the food quality and attention to detail. There were many star dishes that impressed me and luckily had the honor to pack up the leftovers which I ended up sharing with family. They raved over the food from KRB, so I suggested we come here for dinner. To play it safe I called ahead and made a reservation for a round table as I tend to order an array of different dishes. To our surprise, KRB wasn't busy that weekday evening with both private dining rooms occupied and only one other table of 4 during our arrival. I asked the family what they wanted to eat and because they are big eaters who also enjoy leftovers, our initial food order consisted of 9 different dishes that included doubling up both noodle orders. Overall, our meal was above average with family favorites of tofu casserole that was so delicious that I ended up getting another one. The seafood crispy noodles were also phenomenal as it was executed well with great texture contrast and finesse in flavors. Personally I enjoyed the free range chicken with ginger onion sauce and the sautéed lamb with leeks. We also appreciated the complimentary dessert of chilled coconut milk tapioca. Service was above average as the staff were attentive to our needs and exchanged plates halfway during our dinner. The only setback for me was the ambiance as it was semi dark and dingy. The interior could use an upgrade. Recent returned visits to KRB is truly deserving of 5-stars from me. The food exceeded my expectations where it was worthy to drag my family here and have concluded KRB is deserving to be included in our rotation of restaurants to patronize.

Personally the oysters were quite soft and not what I expected. It was a bit disorienting to bite into it. Place is relatively big and is chinese style with the spinning table.
