Admittedly, I got something I've never had before, so wasn't all that impressed with the lack of flavor. My wife's Pho was delicious, and my friends fried rice was likewise. There's no ambiance, it's just a local place where people who know it come and get good food on a budget.

Found this by accident, cruising through the little strip mall, after having eaten at a saimin place the other day. Didn't know whether it was the tinted(?) windows, but had it not been for the little lighted "Open" sign, you'd never know it was there, since it's toward the back of the L building. All 4 of us ordered the... More

I love pho and this seems to be the only Vietnamese restaurant on the island. The beef broth is so delicious! I am also a big fan of the fried egg rolls. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for moderately (not THAT inexpensive) priced good food. The two factors that prevent me from giving it a higher review... More

This was our first pho experience and we were pleasantly surprised. Service was fast and the foot was hot and satisfying. We considered visiting again, but wanted to try other places. A bowl was $7-8.

Eating out at restaurants is very very expensive and groceries are pricey as well compared to the mainland US or Canada. So we were very happy to stumble upon this very good Vietnamese place. As stated in previous reviews do not be put off by location, do not expect any ambience or romance here...just lots of happy locals slurping down... More

Yes this place is hard to find. It's a hole-in-the-wall next to the bowling alley tucked in the back of a strip shopping center. This was the best food of our recent trip to Kauai. DW had rare beef Pho and I had shrimp and broth. We had appetizers of fried spring rolls which were delicious. The owner was gracious... More

This restaurant serves excellent soup noodles. #28 is my favorite and sometimes I go for the dry noodle. I pretty much go there every week and I was never disappointed.

Loved the Pho soup. Service is quick and food is delivered promptly and hot. No complaints from me. I will definitely be back to try the other items on menu. This restaurant is located next to the Bowling center in Lihue town.

This is our favorite restaurant in Kauai. The pho is awesome and the staff are very friendly. The prices are unbelievably low and the portions are big. Owner also has a beautiful orchid display. We go almost once a week and it's always great.
