An acquaintance and I planned to grab dinner and initially wanted to go to Osaka Izakaya downstairs but they were closed! We tried to go to both Bozu and Carp Dori but they were also both quite busy so we settled for some Vietnamese food as it seemed that they were the least busy. We were seated right away and ordered: * Small Combo Pho: my friend got this, look at my previous review for my thoughts on it. In my opinion pretty mediocre pho from what I last remembered. * BBQ Chicken Bun: 9/10 I like this. Plenty of crunchy veggies underneath the noodles (at first I thought it was all noodles and I was like HOLY-). It was filling but also light if that makes sense with all the veggies and the sweet chili sauce. * Spring Rolls: 9/10 hot and crispy, good appetizer to have while you wait. Not my favorite Vietnamese spot but it wasn't terrible. Look at my past reviews for more details! read more

When we walked in the door, there was a overwhelming smell of marijuana. We sat down and it took over a half an hour for them to come to take our order. There were only two servers but it wasn't that busy. The bathroom is located right outside was kind of sketchy. We ordered just three entrées two of them were pho and two Thai teas. We didn't like the tasting of the pho. Can't really pinpoint what was wrong with it. And the Thai teas was watered down. The spring roll was overcooked. The customers next to us complained about their order being wrong. We had to listen to the bickering for quite a while. The server was hesitant to fix the pho. When the bill came, I was surprised that it came out to $115 for just a three entrées. Come to find out they gave me the wrong bill. It ended up being $75. read more

We stopped by Pho 777 since it wasn't too busy and got seated quickly. We ordered the summer rolls, brisket pho, and lemongrass chicken. Unfortunately, we immediately noticed the table and seating area weren't very clean. While eating the summer rolls, there were several flying bugs around us, and the windows, chairs, and tables all looked like they needed more attention. When our entrees arrived, everything tasted pretty good until my girlfriend noticed a small piece of foil in my food. We let the staff know, and they apologized and replaced the dish right away, which we appreciated. Still, after that, I couldn't stop thinking about the kitchen conditions and lost my appetite a bit. The summer rolls also didn't seem very fresh. read more

First time here, felt like a 24 hour diner that happened to serve Vietnamese food. Tables, furniture, and condiments not quite as clean as I like BUT the grilled BBQ pork (thit nuong) was sure good. Convenient, open late, quick service. Not a bad option in town. read more

Pho 777 - Spring rolls and BBQ pork (yum) vermicelli after I ate some (sorry) - Vietnamese Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I have walked past this restaurant many times and finally decided to give it a try. With so many pho eateries around, this one unfortunately didn't stand out. The pho broth lacked depth of flavor, and the ingredients felt minimal for the premium price, not mentioning one tiny slice of lemon for the soup. The spring rolls also didn't quite hit the mark. Service was practically nonexistent; even water refills never came, yet the suggested tips started at 15%... No kidding? Well, that needs to be earned! The only saving grace was the sandwich, which was excellent. read more

Our friend invited us to lunch here today. Its the first time to eat here and I'm glad I did! Had the summer rolls, spring rolls, beef salad, fried rice, stir fried beef, some kind of crepe dish, sweet bean drink, and black iced coffee. Everything tasted great and fresh! Variety of condiments to add to your fish sauce and dish. We had a lot of leftovers to pack. The quality of their takeout containers is the best I've seen. It's paper of course, but has a special coating so that it doesn't leak or break. Also noticed the chopsticks are good quality. No splinters and easy to hold unlike those cheap chopsticks. Parking available downstairs in the covered parking garage and its free. Overall great experience here! The food was served quickly and the restaurant was very clean. read more

Not all heroes wear capes...but all good pho places have a number in it and a three star review #IYKYK It was a weekday, we had just finished a watching a band performance, it was rainy, and we were hungry; so where do you go? Pho, of course because it hits the spot every rainy day! I believe this place has been here for years - since my college days - and it's always been reliable, but this is my first time reviewing it. On this night in particular, I tried the pho ga (chicken pho) because I saw it in a video and I've been craving it ever since. I swear, I am so glad I waited to post this review because I grabbed chicken pho at another location and the difference is leagues!!! The broth, chicken, and noodles were just right, and there was a depth of flavor, which is very hard to do with chicken! You could really taste the comfort and chicken in every bite and slurp. Ambiance: let's face it, nobody cares about ambiance in an Asian restaurant. Wait, I can't say that because ambiance DOES matter to an extent. If the restaurant looks very aesthetic, then you know the food might not be good. This place did the bare minimum with decorations and is a mix of random stuff on the walls...so you know the food is fire! Service was great, especially considering the fact that we came in 45 minutes before closing. Food was served quick and this was not our waiters first time handling the late night crowd. He handled the whole restaurant which was our table of six, plus four, plus a party of 10. 10/10 would come here again - no question. read more

Definitely my go to for take out pho. The flavors are so good. And the portions are large. Big restaurant and always has people. Only two workers at any given time, so service can be a little slower, but worth the wait. read more

My friend and I came on a rainy day and got seated right away with menus already at the table. Service was very quick in taking our order and our food came out shortly after. We got the Egg Wonton Noodles and Vermicelli noodles with egg rolls/grilled pork. Both dishes were soooo tasty. The egg rolls are a must get here. The noodles were nice and comforting with a good amount of toppings. Vermicelli came with picked veg and good about of meat. Portion sizes here are huge which is awesome! Pretty casual spot with ample seating. Good for groups and tasty Vietnamese food in Waikiki. read more

This used to be one of my favorite places to eat. I can see why it's so empty now. We ordered a rice plate and a Bun Bo Hue soup to go. Then my mom got food poisoning, had a sore stomach, and threw up after eating it. This was even after we properly reheated the already-hot soup at home for extra precaution. Their food was not fresh and was old and expired. Health inspector needs to come check this place out. I hope this doesn't happen to anyone else. I will definitely absolutely not ever be returning here. Right before Mothers Day tol - thanks for making my mom feel like crap. read more

Pho 777 is in McCully Shopping Center on the 2nd floor. Parking wasn't too bad as we got there early as they open at 10:00am. The restaurant is pretty big, the space used to be Salerno back in the 80s. I ordered #11 beef pho and my friend ordered #35 bbq pork and shrimp over noodles. Both dishes were good, my pho was ok, not as tasty as other places. They bring the standard basil, bean sprouts, jalapeño peppers and lemon. The waitress came to check on us once. Nothing really outstanding or bad about this place. read more

Located in the Mccully Shopping center on the 2nd floor Diamond head side of the building towards Fuk Yoon Chinese restaurant. They have parking lot on the street level and more below with an elevator. I had the rice and pork plate which was tasty and the meat was okay with some vegetables. Could have been more spicy and flavorful, but you can added spiciness with the condiments on the table. My wife tried the soft instead of the crispy seafood noodles which she enjoyed, but mentioned it was a little on the salty side. The table area where the basket of condiments were as we moved it closer to reach, you could see it hasn't been cleaned in a while and was pretty dirty and could attract roaches if not cleaned. The restroom which is shared by the mall retailers is locked and there are signs even at the restaurant no restroom keys? How is someone going to use the restroom? read more

I've been coming to this restaurant since high school and I absolutely recommend Pho777!! The parking may be a little crazy because it is in McCully Shopping Center, but there is usually parking on the bottom lot of you can't find any on top. My favorites are the Thai Tea, Rare Steak Pho, Summer or Spring Rolls (Either way you can't go wrong). The broth is always so delicious and flavorful! The staff is friendly and welcoming! It is usually open seating so you can choose where you want to sit; there are many booths and tables to choose from. I love Pho777 because the price is unbeatable for the quality! read more

Pho 777 used to be my late night go-to whenever I was in town. It's cozy to me because the owner was always so sweet. It has been quite some time since I last visited, now that I don't travel to McCully side as often as before. The restaurant was so nostalgic, everything looked the same! There was a nice waiter I've never seen before, he was very poised and respectful. He did speak a little quick, but I caught on. The pho is still as yummy as before! read more

Pho 777 - 17.Pho with Special Meat Combo - Vietnamese Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I'm surprised I haven't reviewed Pho 777 before. It was the first pho place I visited on Oahu, and it remains one of my go-to spots. My family and friends all enjoy the food here! [Location] Pho 777 is located in McCully Shopping Center. Free parking is available, at both the ground level and basement lots. I believe there is a public restroom within the center that you can use, but you may need a key. [Food & Drink] I've tried the Vietnamese iced coffee, Thai iced tea, beef pho and spring rolls at this location. The spring rolls are pretty good, though I don't order this too often. The iced coffee is nice and strong. The Thai iced tea is pretty good. But the biggest star of the show is the pho. The pho is flavorful, well-portioned and fairly priced. I also love the plentiful aromatic herbs that come with the pho (culantro, Thai basil, bean sprouts, jalapeño, lemons). [Service] The customer service is consistent. The staff is nice, even when it's busy. But you have to be patient when there are a lot of customers. One male employee is especially friendly. He is fast, hardworking and kind. He has a good memory too! [Ambiance] The restaurant is nice for a big get together. Lots of seating. Depending on the day, it can be loud--though I argue this adds to the ambiance. This is the place to go on a rainy day when you're craving noodle soup! I definitely recommend trying out this local business! read more

I really enjoy this place. I have been coming here for years after seeing their sign in the window and I have been hooked. Their pho is the best, always consistently good. They have great hours too. The food is always fresh and restaurant is clean and has nice seasonal decorations. The workers are very nice. I highly recommend this place especially during colder nights! Summer roll, pho, spring rolls are my fave! Their pho broth is amazing read more

Kindest waiter, and I was with pho aficionados who praised the pho as the best ever!!!! Would recommend. Idk how there are only 3 stars. read more

Food appeared to be not recently cooked. Ingredients used in spicy beef broth caused my wife allergies

We came here for lunch. It was not busy at all only 2 other occupied tables beside us. We ordered bun rieu, grilled chicken vermicelli and ice coffee. The spoons and small fishes for your condiments were filthy. We used water and napkins to clean them ourselves. They forgot my ice coffee. The bun rieu soup was disgusting with sour spoiled tasted to it. The vermicelli noodles was cold like it's been in the fridge. The grill chicken was room temperature. Although I like to support small local business this business need some food safety handling training. We inform our service of the spoiled bun rieu soup. She got the owner/cook. Instead of attempting to make things right she blame it on the shrimps paste. I explained to her the soup tasted really spoiled, sour, like it's old. She just walked away. We tasted the broth before eating the noodles or meat. No apologies or offer something else. We didn't want to make a big deal because we know we'll never come back. This one of the worst safety food handling violation I've ever encountered. Not taking accountability is not good. Everyone make mistakes. We paid our full bill, left tips . read more

Huge restaurant that was great for our group of 7! It also stays open later than most Vietnamese restaurants which is a huge plus. The Large pho was very large and they gave a decent amount of rare steak! I give the pho a rating of 7.5/10. It hit the spot but I'm not sure if I need to come back again for it. Service was great though and food came out decently fast. read more

We come here whenever we are near by. The floor is almost always slippery to me. It's like there a film on it that makes it slippery. In recent years, the back of the restaurant has become cluttered with boxes and used for storage which does not look good aesthetically. The seats and tables need updating and a remodel. The food is decent. I use to get the Combo pho but this time I tried the seafood pho with vegetarian broth. The broth was very salty to my taste. I asked my husband to taste it also to confirm it was salty as I don't personally use a lot of salt. There was about 2-3 pieces of shrimp, shrimp balls, and calamari in the soup. The mochi and egg dish is different from what I remember but this is the only place we have found that does this dish. This time it was crunchier than the last few time we came here and the flavor wasn't the same. My husband got another soup and the meat in it was tender. I did like that they had vegetarian and vegan options available. The server checked on us frequently and was pleasant. My husband's soup came before the appetizer. The appetizer and my pho came in at the same time. The prices were typical of other pho places on the island. read more

Authentic Vietnamese restaurant ran by a small family that serves later than most Vietnamese stores (until 11pm) on the island. Everything about this restaurant reminds me of my family's old restaurant on the mainland which was very nostalgic to me. The service was slower when we went just because they had a lot of customers but understaffed. I totally understand that they did the best they could. The pho was decent. The broth was clear and it satisfied my cravings late at night but I think I will try something else next time if I want a noodle soup dish. I think the proportion was good for its price. But if you're anything like me, I thought the ratio between noodles and meat was off. I had tons of noodles and maybe 6-8 pieces of brisket. The bot chien was excellent though!!! 10/10. It honestly reminds me of my grandmas bot chien in Vietnam. Bot chien is a fried mochi w egg dish. It's usually made w rich flour or taro but I think this is made w. Rice flour. It was soo yummy. Overall, I would come back for other food items but if you're craving pho, there's better places on the island for pho. I would come here for the bot chien though. read more

The restaurant was open in between lunch and dinner. The employee was welcoming and attentive. The restaurant seemed clean. Wanted to like this place but the food was not tasty. The spring rolls were not fresh- no satisfying crunch when you bite into it. Too much pork, not the traditional spring roll i'm used to from other Hawaii Vietnamese restaurants. My vermicelli bowl, generously sized, had a lot of vermicelli, and not enough sauce. Just seemed like a cheap way to fill up the bowl. read more

Pretty good pho on the 2nd floor of McCully Shopping Center. I walk there, otherwise would go less often due to the parking. It's a good amount of food for the price and the interior is kind of dated, but fine. Service is good, but can get chaotic and slow if they are busy. Never bad service, just need to be patient with them if a lot of customers show up at the same time as you. Not a destination, but a great place to have in the neighborhood. read more

Pho 777 was open for us several times when looking for late night grinds in town (was 8:30pm and not much options to accommodate our group). McCully Shopping Center is popular - we've been lucky with parking lately. Pho 777 is on the 2nd floor, middle area. Lots of seating, menu options and food consistently satisfying. That condiment on the table is magic (homemade garlic/chili oil/lemon grass)... so good to add that xtra zing to your meal. Thank you for filling our cravings Pho 777. read more

I am giving them credit for being open when everything else around here is closed due to the Tsunami warning. First, they got my order wrong and the Chicken Pho was not very good.
