FRESHLY brewed Thai tea that fills the restaurant with a sweet scent & you can choose to have it with coconut milk or regular milk or half and half! I prefer coconut milk. So creamy makes a perfect Thai iced tea. Enjoyed our papaya salad & our veggie pad Thai. There were so many other dishes on the menu that sounded amazing but I already had a plan as I was craving papaya salad and pad Thai hit the spot .. They even brought out a sippy cup for my 7m old. He loved the noodles and the veggies. Plenty of parking. Thank you aunties.

The food was delicious…read more We decided to order for pickup, and they have a text message system that notifies you when your order is ready. That was very helpful because we needed to pick up a few things at the grocery store next door, so it worked out perfectly. The service was great. We'll definitely be back to dine in and experience the service inside.

No doubt YONG's Kal-bi is best Korean food on this island. We were expecting Hawaiian version of…read moreKorean food, but it turned out to be very authentic. We came back two nights in a roll to try more dishes. Yukgaejang was flavorful without being salty. It had perfect amount of spiciness and big portion size was a bonus for hungry tourists. We also had their shishito/chives pancake. It was huge and enough to share with whole family. Their butterfish dish was absolutely perfect and we appreciated less salty and buttery fish (as name suggests). We would have gone back for more but unfortunately they are closed Sundays and Mondays. Service was fast and friendly even though they were very busy (lots of phone orders too). It's order at the counter but they bring food out to you. Highly recommend!!

My first red flag was when the table in the front had a hair in their food .... But hey that's beside the point. The shrimp fried rice had 7 shrimp...7!!! It's not seasoned at all just egg and boiled shrimp , not even a lil green onion or soy sauce ..then the duck was like greasy and lacked luster and I asked for the duck "sauce "/ drippings and I was given hosin sauce ( ew) but I ate some because I'm not wasting my money lol. Did I mention I payed $58....... And for that much I would've expected the customer service to be top tier ... and no shocker the food matched the customer service 0/10 again. I'm not mad just disappointed. First restaurant in Hilo -0 /10 .

My family and I have just started eating here and been here many 5 times max, but the food has been…read moregreat every time so far. The restaurant itself seems like your typical Chinese restaurant setup with some booths along the window and larger round tables in the middle. It is a smaller restaurant, so maybe 10ish tables are inside max. We try to mix things up every time we come, but we always get the salt pepper pork ribs and the hot and sour soup! I find most places are either a hot or miss with the soup, but they are definitely my favorite place that makes it! And the pork ribs are the best. As my mom puts it, they're the perfect accompaniment to any meal since they're so crispy and tasty. She even commented she would get just the ribs so she can "snack" on it while watching the Super Bowl. Service can be a bit on the slower side, but every time we came, there's only been one person in the front answering the phone while catering to the people dining in and I believe they make the food when you order it so definitely not a quick place to eat if you're short on time but I find the wait always worth it.

Cute patio but you can't bring drinks out there, the bar inside was nice though.

We ordered the following: Shokupan Pull-apart Bread: 5/5 Delicious, light and fluffy. The butter was also great. I didn't realize how large this was going to be. It's definitely a great shareable for 4-5 people. Shishito Peppers: 5/5 Beef + Foie Gras Gyoza: 2/5 I had high expectations for this dish but ended up not loving it. The gyoza skin was chewy and cold, and the filling was just mushy and I didn't get a great foie gras flavor. 24 Oz Bone-in Dry Aged Ribeye: 3/5 The meat quality was decent but had quite a bit of fat that we skipped over. It was cooked how we wanted it (medium), but was overly salty. Garlic Fried Rice: 4/5 We loved this fried rice but it was also extremely salty. Service was great and overall, we enjoyed our meal. The saltiness was just hard to deal with and made it hard to finish the steak and rice.

Beware. No cashews on the cashew chicken; when I pointed it out, server brought out a small cup of…read morethem and they were clearly out of a bag when menu described "mouth watering home baked cashew nuts." Only two pieces of chicken in the dish as well, paltry even for a lunch portion. I had eaten a few bites before noticing these things, and once I had I asked for a refund. The manager came out and tried to argue every point, including trying to convince me that there had been cashews on it all along haha. I've never given a bad review in my life, but they really earned it unfortunately. UPDATE: Sadly the manager is continuing to gaslight below. Not sure why a customer would try to scam some extra cashews of all things, was really just trying to get the dish I ordered. ‍ Especially as I had already paid the check. Too many lies here to be worth going through, I'll just say I wish the manager had met me with kindness and good faith, instead of immediately assuming I was trying to take advantage of them.
