    Three choices-Fried Rice and Chow Funn, Stuffed Bittermelon, Sweet Sour Pork, Duck
    Diana S.

    I visited Kin Sun on Friday, 1/31/25, at 11:40a to pick up lunch and placed a take out order. The shop was bustling with people getting their Chinese New Year fare. Unfortunately, today they didn't have my stuffed Bittermelon that I always get when I come here. But, today they had Gau that was on sale. I purchased that, and it was soft and sweet, the way I enjoy it. Thus, I ordered a 1/2 pound of Char Sui that was brimming with juiciness. It was indeed flavorful. I also got a plate filled with 1/2 chow fun and 1/2 a serving of fried rice. The starches went well with my 3 choices of entrees. I got the roast duck, fried shrimp, and Chinese sour cabbage. The duck was succulent and had so much flavor. The fried shrimp was soft and the shrimp shell had a nice crunch to it. The Chinese cabbage dish was crisp and sweet and sour. Our service was quick, and they now accept credit cards since my last review 6 years ago. Overall, this is a great place to get take out Chinese Food with great variety and flavor.

    Fantastic roast pork and char siu! Came before a visit to my parents house and per dad's request I had to stop here! Moist roast pork with a perfect crunch and perfectly cooked char siu! Amazing! If you're down the windward side and looking for either, this is a great spot to stop at!

    I love this place. I came here on a Sunday with a craving for Chinese food and have always had good food at Kin Sun. When you enter and see the prepared foods behind the glass it is hard not to buy anything because the food looks so fresh and delicious. I chose chow fun over the fried rice this time but the fried rice looked Ono. I chose a 2 choice lunch plate with sweet sour pig's feet and tripe. I enjoyed the pig's feet and the flavor of the sweet sour was on the mild side which I liked. The tripe I liked better, cooked to a perfect doneness and it had a spiciness to it which I liked. I had a hard time deciding on my choices because all of the food looked so good. I will be returning soon guaranteed,

    A hole-in-the-wall that reminds me of a Chinese takeout place back home, but with even more selection! Their meat entrees are solid choices: pork with crispy pork skin, BBQ pork, and duck. They even had fresh slabs of the rice sponge cake dessert that reminded me of my childhood! Noodles were okay (kind of dry) and the veggie dishes were very saucy. In general, this is a great Chinese takeout spot to check out if you're in the area and need to grab a quick bite.

    My husband was craving for roast duck and gau gee so we went ahead and tried this place out for the first time and grabbed some before heading home this evening. First of all, they're doing something right with the roast duck! There's no gamey smell and no gamey taste! Already a winner in my book! I had my kids try it and they thought it was chicken! They loved it!

    This restaurant is conveniently located at Windward City on the Starbucks end of the shopping center and has a lot of parking, it was a rainy day today and I was craving some nice warm soup. My father and I decided to try their won ton mein for the first time. It was excellent! It was so good, I dove right in and forgot to take a photo of my won ton mein! We got it to go. It cost 30 cents extra for separate soup but well worth it because they gave a lot of soup! My dad enjoyed the won ton mein saying the won tons were huge and tasty and char siu was excellent as well as a tasty soup w no msg. The won ton mein was $10 and had 6 won tons, several pieces of yummy char siu, some won bok, and yummy noodles and soup, I noticed they have reasonable prices for party trays. $29 for a small tray of gon lo mein, perfect for a potluck. I have to try their 2 choice plates next time!

    Thought I've review this eatery before. Well anyway they are located in the Windward City Shopping Cntr. Between Starbucks and Kozo Sushi. Closer to Kozo. Its mostly take out but have a couple of tables for dine in. They have char sui, roast pork and roast duck hanging on display. I've bought these items for the Super Bowl parties. Love them all. On the buffet counter they have Jai ( Chinese New year staple). About twelve other items to choose from. Service has always been good even when really busy. Stay safe.

From the outside, it looks like any ol' storefront, but when you walk in, you have the counters where you can order for takeout, and to the left, you have tables for dining in. Sadly, they don't have the ladies pushing the dim sum carts around, but the service was fast! My husband and I ordered the typical dim sum items- shumai, har gow, rice rolls, wonton noodle soup, taro cake, and every table was gifted egg tarts! To our surprise, everything was made fresh and came out hot- the shrimps in the rice rolls and har gow were huge, and the shumai was about a little bigger than golf balls! My husband's eyes were huge when he saw them, and his immediate words were "omg, did we get a double order or is this one order?!" The shumai and har gow were nice and juicy when you bite into them, and the wontons were definitely made in-house by someone in the back. When you make a lot of wontons, you know that look that shows it was handmade! The rice rolls were delicious with the sweet soy sauce, the wonton noodle soup was delicious, and the taro cake reminded me of how my grandma used to make them. All in all, this is going to be a spot we visit again, and before heading out to the beach. So delicious, so fresh and just hits the spot!

Food was great and tasty. Chicken feet: was large feet. Don't know where they came from. This was my only disappointment. Tasty but not want I am use to. Taro puffs : was nice size and crispy. Bean curd roll: is little on the sweet side. Mochi puffs with pork: crunchy and just enough meat. Pork hash: Great as normal Soy sauce chow fun: Not you salty soy. Believe it's the Chinese soy. So it's not on the salty side. When you order 5 or more dishes. You get a free dish free. Service was fast and you are greeted as soon as you step in. Parking is in the main parking lot by McDonald's. The walls are whimsical with drawings and writings from customers. Pros: Nice size dishes. Tasty and some food comes hot and fresh. Cons: taste is not want I am use to but, the items are very tasty. Would I return? Yes. Parking is great. Lots of seating. Air condition.

It really felt like a family owned business, and the same three people were there both days. Everyone was extremely nice, and honestly, I would come back just because of how welcoming they were. We ordered the sesame chicken with fried rice, and the portion of sesame chicken was huge. I definitely wasn't expecting that much food, but I'm not complaining. The chicken was really crispy and had a great flavor. The food also came out pretty quickly, so there wasn't much of a wait. One thing I really appreciated was how attentive they were with the water. I drink a lot of water, especially with how hot it is in Hawaii, and I mentioned that when we first sat down. Every time my glass started getting low, the gentleman would come over and refill it without me even having to ask. He probably refilled it 8 to 10 times, which I really appreciated. The music was also really good, and we had a nice window seat where we could look outside. The seating was comfortable and the whole experience was just really pleasant. I would definitely recommend coming here, especially if you appreciate good food and genuinely friendly service.

I have a few go-to's that i must have when I just cannot bring myself to cook at home: house chop suey, house special fried rice (and I mix them together when I get home - soooooo good!!!), the steamed fish, or the "dinner plate for one." Affordable, delicious, and so easy to order for takeout. (Don't forget the rice cake and bag of shrimp chips on your way out!!) Plenty of tables to eat in - and they can easily accommodate large groups. Decent parking (if lot is full, there are spots on the other side of the ramen place!). Just like everything else in our sweet little Kailua, the restaurants are all facing increasingly expensive rents and costs. We will quickly lose all of our local kine treasures if we don't support them. Time for some yummy dinner!

We decided to eat here rather than take out, and being a day before NYE, they were busy with people placing and picking up orders for parties. Fortunately, there was a car just leaving the parking area, and one inside, there were only a couple of tables occupied, so we sat and were served pretty quickly. We shared one order of the House Special cake noodle, and an order of crispy pork. The food was good and tasty, as always, and there was still quite a bit to take home. We packed them in a couple of take out containers they provided, and we were done in less than 45 minutes. My favorites are the noodles, crispy gau gee, cold ginger chicken, moo shu pork, and their kau yuk pork with steamed buns. Just thinking about them now, makes me crave them and want to get some for lunch after New Year's day.
