This has been one of my favorite restaurants in honolulu for a long time. Normaly, I would have given it 4 or 5 stars for the food because their food is very well cooked.In general they have a decent lunch and discountplanned and they offer a very wide wide range of cooking styles. The first time I went, there was back when they were offering lobster for about $10 for the smaller lobster.If you ordered another regular dish, not a discounted dish.That's how long it's been now.That same lobster costs twenty five dollars. I hadn't had lobster in a while and recently I saved up a lot of money to give myself a birthday present of one of their lovely lobster dishes. I was actually horrified by some of the slopiest cooking i've ever seen and I never would have expected it from this restaurant. I didn't complain at the time because I was actually in shock. Both dishes I ordered were not made correctly! I thought I had to be wrong. But I wasn't and when I took home, what was left of the lobster , It was covered in a sludge of corn flour thickened liquid that was tasteless and was like having paste all over the lobster ... really bad. Sadly, although I've gone to this restaurant for so many years, because I did not complain immediately, when I was served the lobster, there was nothing they would do. If I had complained immediately, they would have taken it away and brought me another one. My other dish was shrimp soft egg on rice. It was not made correctly either and came out like a tasteless soup, not like an egg based thickened sauce. In a restaurant like this, the people who run it are not interested in repairing the damage after the fact. They will only fix it in the moment. So right now, I can recommend almost anything on the menu, except never order lobster in the supreme sauce or what they call their garlic butter sauce. There is no garlic in it. There is no butter in it. There is corn starch mixed with some kind of obscure liquid that has no flavor. So it was basically unacceptable in every possible way. Maybe the other preparations are better. But everything else, including the house made kimche is fantastic. My favorite lunch is the roast duck with rice, or the beef chow fun. ....
