    Top for a quick fast meal but a bit disappointing result! Normally we love Bo's good meal fast and tasty but his time not so much. Garlic chicken- over fried - a bit hard and dry Hamburger & gravy - hamburger good gravy needs some work! Kimchee and Mac salad always very good! A little disappointed but we'll be back to try a different menu item. The people are nice parking always available

    Food and service is like no other here the food is so delicious authentic and makes me feel happy as for the service alike it's like a family feeling you get every time you go there I recommend this to anyone my kids love this place to eat. 10/10 bbq place.

    Old school walk up and order
    Jodi W.

    SO I got one beef rib, and the Hibachi chicken plate. Only complaint is it didn't come w enough mac salad, which was delicious mind you. This BBQ joint is so bomb. The woman at the counter is always nice to me, the fat haole girl. lol. The walk up counter is usually packed. I went in the middle of the afternoon and it was not crowded. There are picnic tables out front to eat at. This is one of the best mac salads in town.

    Hibachi Chicken, Kalbi with Scallops Combo and Giant Fries
    Sach T.

    This place was in my Yelp bookmark for a long time. Was passing by and there was no line so good chance to give it a try. I ordered a regular Kalbi Short Ribs Combo with Scallops and my husband ordered a regular Hibachi Chicken. Heard about their Giant Fries so ordered that too. Looking at my food pic, we had a lot of carbs. As I was posting the pics, there was a sign that you can substitute the mac salad with kernel corn, toss salad, Kim Chee, cole slaw or rice. If I saw the sign or if they mentioned the substitution, I would've chosen cole slaw for me and tossed for my husband. Next time... There were 2 pieces of kalbi and 3 pieces of scallops with tartar sauce on the side with the price of $17.75. They put shredded cabbage under the kalbi so whenever places do this, I like to mix it in my mac salad...yum! The hibachi chicken came with 3 pieces for $15.50. Both plates were tasty and we enjoyed our food. The giant fries came with 5 pieces for $6.95. Thought it was okay but pricey for $1.39 a piece. The person who helped us was nice, they have LOTS of parking so it's very convenient and have a large selection of food so will be back to try something else. I heard they'll be moving soon in the old Tasty Chop Suey bldg. located on the corner of Gulick Ave. and N. School Street some time this year which is closer to where I live...yay!

    Mixed Plate

    In all the time I've lived on Oahu (well over a decade), I'd never eaten at Bob's. We decided to pick up some plate lunches while in town. Though the parking lot was busy, there were only a few of orders ahead of us so the wait wasn't long. They have a few benches that are shaded, but one was occupied by a couple of houseless dudes so customers were mainly waiting at the two benches closest to the window. We got the bbq mix plate and hibachi chicken. Plates had generous portions of protein and rice, and the mac salads were served in separate containers. Overall the food was alright; my mother in law noted that the kalbi was quite salty and husband thought the mac salad a bit heavy on the mayonnaise. I know it's out of their control who hangs out on their benches but as a woman, I would not be comfortable going here alone to get food.

    Stopped by Bob's for lunch right before the rush. Seems like a lot of people just grab n go at this spot but my family and I hung out at the outdoor tables for lunch. I ordered the short ribs Kalbi and fried chicken. Not too bad. Pretty generic fried chicken nothing special. The kalbi was good with more of that burnt bbq flavor which I do like. Really loved the service, very accommodating. Overall 4.2/5. Would come back for lunch.

    Stopped by this place to try some bbq. We got the super combo so that we could try a little of everything: beef ribs, baby back ribs, kalbi, teriyaki beef, and teriyaki chicken. It also comes with 3 scoops of rice and 2 scoops of Mac salad in separate containers. The portions seem generous and this combo was plenty of food for at least two people. While I don't normally get chicken, I thought the chicken was moist and very good. Probably one of the best items. We also liked the kalbi, but that's my favorite meat in general. The teriyaki beef was next best. As for the ribs, they were slathered in sauce so the beef and pork kind of tasted the same to me. There was a little bit of cole slaw underneath the meats, but it was drenched with sauce. It was good with the rice. Bob's is a bbq stand with about 10 tablespoons or so outdoors underneath a covered patio. It is not an ambient dining experience but a good place to get take-out or for a casual bbq meal. Plenty of parking available in the lot around the stand.

    This place never disappoints when it comes to delicious food at a great price. Just check out the photos--look at those massive portions! I got the special shoyu chicken for $13.50! My partner got the beef rib--I honestly forgot the price, but it doesn't matter to me. He really wanted it, and since I was paying, I just wanted him to enjoy whatever he felt like. The ladies working there are super friendly, and if you ask while waiting, they'll even give you free water. The area can get a little sketchy at certain times, and yeah, you might run into some weird folks. If that's not your vibe, you can always take your food to go. Personally, I just eat there--I'm kinda weird myself, and when I'm hungry, I'm not about to wait to get home. Will always come back here. Highly recommend!

    Had my chance to visit this place during my trip and was very happy I did. The gentlemen that helped me was very nice and helpful and seemed like either the owner or sr employee. I had seen a few YouTube videos on the place and the food looked great. There was one group there that was eating their food that looked like locals and looked like they were enjoying their food. I asks the worker what I should try to get the good first experience and he mentioned the super platter. I was not disappointed. The place was kind of in da hood but I've found sometimes the best food comes from da hood. The super platter had two huge beef ribs, some pork ribs, some Teri beef and bbq chicken. It also came with a good amount of rice and some Mac salad. The price was very affordable for all the food you got and I'd come back again if I had the chance.

    Kalbi Short Ribs Combo

    The firework of the grill is good here and is well priced. The only thing is the place feels a little more sketch if you want to eat here. There is seating if you want to eat it fresh off the grill but everything comes in a to go box. Also the portions are huge. There's also ample of parking here.

    Mixed Plate

    Great food here and theres a lot of seating outside. The food was a greatly priced and they were super fast to give us our food as well. Loved this place.

    Mix plate
    Roseanna L.

    Food: Delicious. I had the mixed plate with the teriyaki chicken, kalbi, and teriyaki beef. It was about 19.90ish after tax. Was shareable for 2 people, and fed us till content when we were starving haha. Service: The service was fine. Staff called out orders as they were ready. Nothing unusual, so it was great! Ambiance: They had plenty outdoor seating space. Vibe was that of a place you know was gonna be good. Would we go back again? Yes.

    Teri Giant Cheeseburger, malt shake
    Emily L.

    Got the Teri burger and a malt shake for lunch. We did a call in order for around 11 am. We got there on a Friday, and it was decently busy for the lunch rush. It's a small shop, and a little bit hidden. We picked it up and they prepared our malts when we got there. The malt was delicious, $6 for a medium size, $7 for a large.The price is great for what you get. The burger was delicious and had simple toppings, wish it had a little more salt though. It was also $6.50 for the Teri Cheeseburger. Overall I would return again!

    I was craving Korean cold noodles in this summer heat, so we decided to stop by for lunch. We…read morearrived around 12:30 p.m. when there were only a few parties dining in, but the restaurant quickly filled up by the time our food arrived. Their parking lot also extends further so it becomes a pretty decent size and we had no trouble finding a spot. The banchans were good! One of the sides was poke, which we've never seen at a Korean restaurant before. It was unexpected, but so fresh and delicious. We ordered the cold noodles, spicy pork bulgogi, and seafood pancake. Everything was really good, and we'd honestly rank those dishes above most of the Korean restaurants we've been to. The seafood pancake was packed with seafood flavor, and they definitely didn't skimp on the squid. The spicy pork bulgogi came with a bowl of rice and had the right amount of spicy. The cold noodles totally hit the spot and had just the right amount of toppings in every bite. I was left very satisfied and we even had leftovers of the pork and pancake to take home. Service was friendly, and everything arrived in a timely manner. We'll definitely be back soon to try the AYCE and the soups!

    I came here for lunch. I noticed this place changed owners awhile ago. Under the new name,…read moreMoobongri, they offer Ala carte menu items as well as an AYCE menu. I like that they open at 10am and that they serve delicious banchan. I came in one weekday and was seated at one of the regular tables. I guess they assumed I wasn't going to get the AYCE, even though it's pretty affordable for weekday lunch (like $28). Id like to come back to try the ayce sometime. I decided on the cold noodle and kalbi combo for $24. The cold noodles by themselves are only $14, so I thought there would be at least a couple pieces of kalbi in the combo. Nope. Apparently one piece of kalbi is $10. It was served hot, but it was served on a hot plate with onions and the plate itself wasn't hot. Why serve it on a hot plate? Very confusing. The cold noodles were refreshing, but you can get pretty good cold noodles at any Korean restaurant I think. I was a little disappointed in the quantity of food for the combo. Or I wish they had an actual lunch special, maybe I should have just got the ayce at this point right? But I wanted the cold noodles.... Oh well. It doesn't seem like they changed the interior all that much. It was pretty nice inside to begin with and there is a big parking lot. The workers come by when you ring the table side bell. Lol, otherwise they kind of just drop off the food and leave you alone. I was surprised there were like 3 other couples eating from the Ala carte menu at 10:30. I would possibly come back to try their other soups, but I wouldn't get suckered into getting the combos.

    Yesterday, we picked up a roasted 40 lb suckling pig from Chun's. It was our first time and…read moreeverything was great. From ordering over the phone, to picking up at 3:50 Friday afternoon (they close at 4), to the quality and flavor of the meal! I checked temp and it was only 110 when i got it home. And even though it was fully cooked, guidelines say it should be a minimum of 140 degrees when served, so I put it in a 250 degree oven to rewarm and didn't serve till it got up to almost 160 degrees. Only took 30 or 45 minutes. Everyone enjoyed watching me carve it up (which i only knew how to do from watching you tube videos) the meat was delicious, tender and moist, with crisp skin, in spite of the reheating process. All in all it was a great experience! We will definitely do this again.

    Much MAHALO to my Yelp buddies - Da Mayor of Chinatown- Paul C., Chun M., Val D., Bruddah Brian M.,…read moreCin T., Judy C., Christal P., & Liiiii F. for posting your awesome pics & reviews of - Chun's Meat Market. It's always good to try different places that makes Chinese BBQ meats.....sure I have my goto joints, but sometimes it's good to break protocol & try a new business. Chun's Meat Market is located in the heart of Chinatown inside of Oahu Market, and it appears they specialize in Chinese BBQ meats like - Char Siu, Roast Pork, Roast Duck, Shoyu Chicken, Turkey Tail, & Five Spice Honey Combo Tripe. Service here was pretty fast & friendly, and basically this shop is a grab & go kinda joint. The day I came here I picked up half a Roast Duck, as well as a pound of Char Siu for my dad. What can I say about the grub? I did not partake in the Char Siu so I cannot say how it tasted, but as for the Roast Duck the marinade tasted on the saltier side. Although the price they charged for their Roast Duck was very competitive, the Roast Duck was not as meaty as the Roast Duck I would buy from other places I normally patronize. Overall, a pretty good Meat Market with great service.
