    Chicken and pork vermicelli
    Bob S.

    I use to come here every Friday with a group from work 15 years ago. And though it's been a while, I now remember just how good it is! If you order a LARGE bowl of pho here, you better be hungry cuz it's plentiful and probably coukd be shared but when you love pho like me, I ate it all and I looked 9 months pregnant! And I'm a guy! It was absolutely delicious! And I was stuffed to the gills as they give you your money's worth! And the service is terrific! They share the duties and tips and all three were attentive, especially Q! She was awesome! My wife selected the bbq chicken and pork with vermicelli and that too was plentiful and slap ya momma good!

    Best pho on the island at the best price

    Been coming here for almost 30 yearyand its still excellent. Hole in the wall pho at its very best. You walk in and you smell beef broth and jasmine rice. We always order medium combo/dac biet. Plateful of sprouts, basil and half a lemon ( not a tiny useless wedge like most places). The broth is the star! I could just have that but of course the different slices of beef and cartilage and tripe... Im in heaven. The medium bowl is huge so know that at $16 you are getting a lot of good. I highly recommend trying this local longtime business.

    I had to run an errand late in the evening and my daughter wanted pho. Our favorite places were closed already, so we tried Cuu Long. Service was quick and friendly. The broth wasn't as flavorful as other places, but it was still pretty tasty and open later than the others!

    There's a LOT of Vietnamese places to go have Pho... But, how many can you say have really good broth? Well, search no further and stop on by Cuu Long Vietnamese Restaurant. We came in just after the lunch rush. I always try to time my visits in between the Lunch and dinner rushes... We got there and literally everyone there eating just finished and all the tables needed to be bussed... They were super quick to clean a table for us. We sat down and ordered our food... The large combo pho is my go-to... And YES, the pho broth is what makes the place.... I taste the broth. Then, I add ball my fixens. Hoisin sauce, chili pepper oil, lemon, basil, culantro.... Perfection!!

    $16 side dish of poached dry chicken. Does this look appetizing?
    Jeneen M.

    First time eating here. I Ordered two items. Papaya salad and side dish of chicken. Was not impressed with the order I got. I had return the $16 side dish chicken which was very dry tasting (poached). The papaya salad I ate was ok nothing to boast about. I have had better at other Vietnamese restaurants. Maybe there's other dishes that are better? The staff had no problem with taking the chicken off my bill. Other than that the indoor dining has lots of seating with AC.

    Excellent food, highly recommended when you're around pearl City area. Good amount of food for the price, reasonable price and authentic Vietnamese restaurant. I definitely will be back again.

    Took my Mom and Auntie out for lunch, and they wanted Pho since it was windy and cold for them. It was a busy morning when we got in, but we got greeted and sat immediately. Great service, warm and welcoming interactions with us and other customers. Our water was always filled without us asking. Simple and homey interior, nothing fancy. The food is top notch, the broth is full flavor, generous meat portion. The spring rolls are homemade, made daily, not frozen. The veggies and herbs are crisp and fresh.

    Yummy!! Pork Banh mi!
    Madison G.

    Amazing place! I got the pork Banh Mi and Thai tea--service was quick, the sandwich was excellent, and the Thai tea was lovely! Definitely recommend!

    I got the large pho combo but I believe I could do the XL combo next time lol. He got the pork shrimp summer roll while I got the shrimp only summer roll appetizer. Everything was delicious! It felt nice because the lady called almost all the girls "sister" lol I thought that was cute! I should try other dishes next time with my pho lol

    We planned to pick up dougnuts from Island Glazed. That was dessert, so what to eat for lunch. Craig T had mentioned he had a Uber drop-off their. So Cuu Long Vietnamese was our pick. We were there early so it wasn't busy. My wife ordered the Spring Rolls , and I got the Seafood Pho. Two good picks that we would order again. Clean and spacious seating. The service was friendly and fast. Enjoy

    Tasty Spring roll

    I frequent this restaurant for several reasons; first the Sour Soup, second the Vietnamese coffee, third they open at 10:00 which is when I'm hungry for breakfast/lunch aka Blunch. Located in Pearl Kai Shopping Center they've been here since the beginning of time or maybe just 30 years but as long as I remember. I'm not a Pho fan though you'll catch me in quite a few restaurants which specialize in the soup. I luv BunBo Hue but it's not offered here. I order the Seafood Sour Soup (served with fish and shrimp) years ago you'd get chunks of fresh fish, now it's previously frozen and most likely tilapia and maybe five mediumish shrimp...it's all good it's all about the flavor. It's also offered with chicken, tofu or just vegetable. It's a Tamarind flavored soup with a chunk of pineapple, fresh slices of tomato, taro stems and herbs. Comes with a side of rice but I always refuse the rice and let the soup shine on its own. If they opened at 6:00 I'd be first in line for their Vietnamese freshly brewed coffee. They bring it to you dripping into the cup with condensed milk waiting to be stirred in when the coffee is finished dripping. You can drink it hot or request a glass of ice to pour it over. I'm an iced fan because you can't drink it fast enough when it's that hot. I also like the Spring rolls, crispy traditional pork rolls (2 cut into 4 pieces) served with green leafy lettuce, rice noodles, basil, cucumbers all to messily roll up and dip in their savory sauce. If you've been here often you know that you don't wait to be seated....you be standing there forever while people stare at you. There are about eight tables for four or six people each and a communal table down the middle. When you're done you can sit and wait forever for one of the two busy servers to notice or you just get up and walk to the window in the back and ask to pay your check. It's not fine dining or fine service but I do love that soup and keep coming back.

    Combination phó
    Kristin S.

    Wow, the broth is delicious. My first phó experience as a new resident on the island of Oahu. The service is quick and the staff is attentive. All the needs you want to add to your phó is available. The setting is cozy and busy, with table turnover.

The noodles were cooked well. Honestly, it was great. The portions could be a little better. So, from a cost-to-value perspective, that could be better. All in all, it was great.

I ordered the regular bone broth with beef brisket, and out of the 10+ pieces in my bowl, only about three were actually brisket while the rest were tendons. I understand the dish is supposed to be a mix, but the portion ratio has never been this unbalanced during my previous visits. We politely asked the older server, who seemed to be the owner, whether it was normal to receive so little meat. Instead of acknowledging our concern or apologizing, she responded with attitude and simply said it was "a mix." That interaction honestly made me feel dismissed and mistreated as a returning customer. Later, another server checked on us, and we explained the situation. She was kind and offered to bring more meat, which I appreciated, but by then I was already almost finished with my meal and the experience had already been disappointing.

I paid and left. When I got home, I opened the salad and noticed a pile of basil and what appeared to be cilantro. It tasted like cilantro, too. So, I went back to the restaurant to return my order, as I no longer wanted any of it. When I got there, the woman told me that isn't cilantro, it's "culantro." She said she would refund my salad, but not the sandwich and proceeded to argue with me that she was doing me a favor because the salad did not have cilantro, even though she very well knows they taste the same. In any case, I left my entire order and was only refunded for the salad. I will dispute with my cc company. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE

The spring rolls came out nice and crispy it had the right amount of vegetables and meat inside and went well with the dipping sauce, only thing for the 6 rolls they only have 2 small leaves of romaine to wrap the rolls in so we just ate it with out the romaine lettuce. I had the Evil Princess stir fried with pork and green beans and bamboo shoots, onions and basil leaves with a curry sauce. It was okay but on the sweeter side due to the coconut milk in the curry. My wife enjoyed the fried pork chop with her dipping sauce. The Pad Thai noodles with Chicken was okay, but on the sweeter side like more ketchup than flavor, there was a lot left so others thought the same.

The portion was generous, fried fresh, and paired really well with a spicy mayo dipping sauce. We also ordered the tofu salad, which was surprisingly large and super flavorful, with a sesame peanut dressing that I really enjoyed. Service was extremely quick, likely because the restaurant was pretty empty (which worked in our favor, especially during spring break). It did feel a bit rushed at times, but honestly, I didn't mind since I tend to prefer a quick in-and-out dining experience. Parking was also very convenient, with plenty of spaces available around the mall on multiple levels. Even though this location doesn't carry all of our favorites from Mililani, we'd still definitely come back. Solid food, fast service, and a great option when you're craving something warm and satisfying.

    Super disappointed with the crazy service tonight…read more I placed an order outside using the kiosk for just a chicken katsu special at 5:52 PM since it was crowded inside and ended up waiting 45 minutes for that one plate. It wasn't just the waiting, it was the service and lack of communication that pushed it over. After placing my order, I entered the restaurant and waited on the side since there wasn't a place to sit and wait. The worker who was stationed at the front soon came back and asked "How can I help you?" and I mentioned that I ordered on the kiosk outside and she walked away without saying anything. Around 10 minutes in I noticed the worker mentioning to every person in line only after they tried to order that the wait would be 30 minutes for anything on the grill since they had a big order. The questions that came to mind every time a person attempted to order was "why wouldn't she tell them that they would have to wait 30 minutes from the beginning before they even tried to order so they could reevaluate if their orders needed the grill?" And "what items are not on the grill?" Every person in line would get frustrated as she wouldn't even show what items didn't need the grill.. They would say "Okay I want to order this instead" and she would keep saying "that's on the grill so you have to wait 30 minutes." Like they were supposed to know.. Who wouldn't get frustrated? Time went on and I found myself still waiting at 6:30 PM. When i heard her mentioning the chicken katsu wouldn't take long since it's not on the grill. No update, just me sitting on those high chairs obviously waiting for my order. It's worse because you don't get a buzzer for using the kiosk. I decided to ask about my order but still had to wait in line to talk to that same worker. When it was eventually my turn, I said "I wanted to check on my order" and showed her a picture of the kiosk with the order number because the kiosk didn't print a receipt for me and rudely responded with "Your order's already ready" and just handed it to me.. Excuse me? No one even bothered to tell me it was ready and she spoke to me like I was supposed to know it was ready. How long was it ready that I was wasting my time waiting there? Also, please fix the option on the kiosk when you select the chicken katsu; it should have the option or be defaulted with "White rice & mac salad" like your app. The kiosk is misleading and doesn't say you don't need to select "all rice" or the other up-charge options. So when she gave it to me and she said all rice I explained to her that I thought it was making me choose an option and she got defensive and said "No it doesn't." She eventually took it to the back to put mac salad then returned and rudely told me "Next time just don't select an option." Wow. It was not my fault that no one called me to tell me my order was ready. It was not my fault there was a flood of orders during dinner time. I like Oh My Grill but please do better with the customer service, especially with the person who's in charge at the front. I understand that it gets overwhelming when it's busy but the communication and customer service was just the worst. No one deserves to be treated like that especially when we come often. This was such a horrible experience.. Maybe won't come back for a while.
