This little place is great for a quick lunch or afternoon snacks!

I just tried their veggie spring rolls, and they are so delicious! Just the right amount of crispiness for me! I never thought I would prefer veggie spring rolls over ones with meat in…More »

Pretty good place for on budget eating! Their combo meals start from $4.50 to $8.50. I recommend to always order combo A+B on the breakfast menu; you get more for your money. All these combos come with a free hot drink or you can have a cold drink…More »

For breakfast, this place is not bad.  I believe I made a review before about their dinner menu...Dinner was decent, but their breakfast menu is much better. For $8 you can choose from a variety of western or Asian combo meals that include a drink.…More »

The generic HK style cafe. Meals are $6 - $8 here and it comes with a drink! But this place is just a bit more special as the drinks come with unlimited refills! This is one reason why I come here, especially during a hot summer day. Note though:…More »

Not bad for a cheap meal.

Don't expect a lot from service or from the food. Meals are about $6 - $7 so its really what you paid for. The portions are decent size and will fill you up. Like most HK style cafes, the lunch and afternoon meals always come…More »

Ok, for the price you pay, its a great bargain...but there A LOT of stuff to think about when you're eating at this place.

For one, its not very clean...A while ago, I had my first dinner at Honolulu Kingsway, and to my dismay, my friend found herself…More »

Awesome place for a quick lunch on a budget. I believe their sushi combos are under $6 for about 15 pieces of sushi (about 3 rolls of sushi). The owners/chef are Vietnamese, so you will not be eating authentic Japanese food. But at those prices, who…More »
