Upon entering it's kind of a small place that doesn't have a lot of fan fare. I'm cool with that. We picked our seats and a super friendly lady sat us down. She was very pleasant and is super customer focused. We ordered an array of appetizers and two meals. Now... I gotta admit... while she was nice, after she left, it all kinda went downhill from there. The chicken was pretty good, but beyond that, the meals weren't that fancy. The spam appetizer is quite simple. Honestly, we were a little disappointed. Then the server after the lady was barely present. We left and were glad that we tried it, but with all the amazing options in the area, this probably won't be our first go-to. Food Taste: 3 Overall Service: 4 Value of service to cost: 4 Facility: 3 Ambiance: Small mom and pop place that is very pragmatic in seating and capacity. Repeat customer: nawh Dog Friendly: no

I had asked for extra onions, which I meant extra yellow onions, but was given green onions. It was no big deal, just make sure you specify. I didn't even think about it when I asked. I had to giggle when I got my food and saw them. It was to many green onions to eat, and they were big... Lol. They have seating to dine in and I think one table outside. There's also a condiment section that has teriyaki, kalbi, and katsu sauces you can fix yourself. I think it's great that they offer that. The fried rice was good and the Mac salad complimented the rice really well. It was hot and fresh when I opened it. I enjoyed my meal. I grew up on the island of Oahu, so I miss plate lunches. When I have a craving I come here. They have BBQ chicken, manapua, beef, and loco mocos and etc on the Hawaiian side, then they have pad thai and different noodle and rice dishes on the Thai side. The food is decent. Check them out!!

Great service. Friendly staff. The food came out perfect! I highly recommend the spam musubiread more

It had been a while since we visited Mama Kwan's. I remembered some good Rockfish tacos and wanted…read moreto have another such lunch. I guess the Rockfish tacos were a daily special, so I ordered the "World Famous" Mahi tacos while Ms T ordered a crabcake sandwich. I think we were both a little disappointed. Her sandwich was definitely for bun lovers. She tore off enough bread for another sandwich and still had plenty. Restaurants are often guilty of conflating a huge bun with good sandwich. She was not particularly impressed with the crab cake, saying it was overloaded with thyme. I ordered my Mahi "blackened" and it really was not. The seasonings were good although also heavy with thyme. The flour tortillas were of poor quality, very thin and leathery and not provided hot. Hence the tacos were room temperature when eaten. I liked the finely shredded cheese that was not served refrigerator cold. The white sauce they serve is just wrong for these tacos. It is too sweet, too tart, making it harsh. Instead, I used the sauce that came with her crab cake and that was much better. Finally the mahi was very dry. I guess that is kind of the way that mahi is, but this really needed plenty of sauce. Kudos to them for serving good jasmine rice. This was not as good as we remembered. It is OK, not great and could be improved with just a few changes. We should have tried the burgers.

They were also super patient with us as this was our first time. I actually won a gift card giveaway on Instagram so I finally got to use it. Thank You. I opted for the shrimp poke bowl with lots of sauce and toppings atop greens. Hubby ordered a spicy tuna bowl also with lots of sauces and toppings. I was happy to see a list of options and toppings on the glass because everything was covered so I wasn't able to see what they had available. I liked how they have specialty drinks; I ordered the mahalo colada and hubby ordered the dragonfruit juice. Their ice machine was out of order but the drinks were cold so we got them anyway. Our bowls were yummy. The drinks were okay... I would probably come back again when in the area.

The short ribs were tough and the Mac salad was bland. It didn't have any flavor at all. I also asked for a green salad to replace the Mac salad.

It's one of the only dishes that seems "healthy" to me there. I have ordered other platters but they seem super artery clogging. Their Dole whip is the best no doubt. Here's the down side though... they're sometimes slow and sometimes out of things. They definitely seem to run on "island time" so it's authentic on that end. But I wish it was a little more consistent. Sometimes the garlic shrimp dish is also inconsistent... out of the salad, or the dressing, or the rice. And it's sometimes different based on who's cooking. Sometimes they serve it with their macaroni salad, sometimes not. (Btw the macaroni salad is amazing!) If they were more consistent and a little faster, I'd be there more often. I'm not a fan of musubi. Once I found a hair in mine from here and it really turned me off so that I can't order them anymore from there. Not a huge loss since as mentioned, I don't enjoy musubi anyways. I do love a few dishes though.

Whether it's just the two of us or with a group, there have been no complaints on our end. Let's see how this visit went. We were seated once we walked in. Just like before, the decor was set up perfectly and each customer was taken care of by the wonderful staff making sure everyone was comfortable. No problems here at all. For the selections, we had pan-fried pork gyoza and I had chicken Katsudon for my entree (Sophia had her usual, chicken Katsu Ramen). Everything delivered was on point. Well-cooked and tasted great. I do wish I could add more, but when you eat regular dishes, there's nothing more to say. Thank you again Tanpopo Ramen for making Sophia and myself satisfied. Keep it up :)

Ive never had a good ramen egg either, sometimes they're just too egg-y or mucus like for lack of a better descriptor, I actually ate this ramen egg. It didnt taste like egg and had a very nice jello like texture, will be going back next time im in the area to try the katsu . Service was also very prompt & attentive.
