Dim sum here was delicous. Definitely felt like I was in Asia. Plenty of people and the yummy dimsum aroma filled the air. Staff were available but just a little short staffed like anywhere else. If you're feeling dim sum, this is where to be.

This Dim Sum spot has to be my top pick. Food was off the charts , very very good service. Prices are very reasonable, with the food cost going up all over the places. I gotta say this place has the best price. Inside this restaurant has a huge fish tank right in the front, if you have kids it's a good distraction. Very clean tables and nice decor too. Can't wait to try dinner menus.

Nǐ hǎo. Hi. Today's linner is with Kapiolani Seafood Restaurant. There's two ways to enter their shared parking lot. One on Kapiolani Boulevard right across Target or Makaloa Street. The restaurant is cleaned and I like the fixtures that they've used to decorate the restaurant. The restaurant is also unusually quiet for a Chinese restaurant. I'm used to loud noises but this place is nice and quiet. I think you'll find it enjoyable to come to this place and be able to hear your parties conversations without having to talk louder;) They have regular menu and dim sum. You decide which you'll have. We ordered from the regular menu because I wanted the Dungeness crabs ;) We ordered: Dungeness crabs with ginger and green onions sauce. They served it with chopped parts on the shell of the crabs. I wish that they cut the crab legs more to easily eat the crab meat. The flavors were gingerly sweet. It was seasoned well. Half order of Peking duck with buns. I'm not a duck fan but it's good. It's better with the bun, oyster sauce and green onions. Steam garlic sauce shrimp. I've never tried this before. This is good. It's sitting on clear noodles and the sauce its mixed in with garlic is sooo yummmmm!!! The ong choy with preserved bean curd is always a must have at any Chinese restaurant. This one is cooked perfectly. It's crunchy. It's not over cooked or undercooked. The flavors on point too. For dessert, we tried the sweet custard buns. It's not flaky, it's sweet but not too sweet, buns soft and chewy. I like it! It's a nice flavor after all the salty and savory flavors from our main dish. Our server, Calvin, is superb! He was thoughtful and consistently checked in if we needed plates, napkins, water, and cleared our tables by transferring our dishes to smaller plates to make space on our tables. He even provided us with a reusable bag for our takeouts/leftovers. He recommended the sweet custard buns. Thank you, Calvin. Thank you for reading my review. Have a good night!

Delightful and grateful to enjoy conversations with dear friends that love dim sum! Free parking, modern ambience and no carts. There's a two sided dim sum menu with pen to write in quantity, and a regular menu at the table. Place all orders with Server. Pork siu mai: moist and flavorful, goes well with dipping sauce. Char siu bao: soft, tender pieces of pork. House dumplings: tasty and great crunch from water chestnuts. Filling falls apart easily. Beef look funn: very flavorful Shrimp look funn: plump and moist. Salted custard bun: eye catching, gold lining steamed bun with savory, custard filling. Smooth transition to desserts. Sweet custard bun: top was less flaky. Filling offered perfect texture and sweetness. Dan tat: Firm, rich custard tart and crust. Slightly burnt at top. Singaporean noodles was very tasty. Ordered entree from regular menu. Staff was very kind and accommodating. Complimentary hot tea served in a pot and glasses of iced water. Staff checked in with us periodically, offered water refills, extra napkins, to go containers, and a reusable handle bag. If driving, enter from Kapiolani Blvd to maximize parking options. First come, first serve only for breakfast and lunch. Reservations accepted in advance for dinner. Next time I'll save some room for congee.

My family and I recently celebrated my sister and I's birthday at Kapiolani Seafood Restaurant, and it was an absolute hit! From the moment we booked the private room to the end of the night, the customer service was impeccable. The staff was incredibly accommodating, allowing us to customize our food orders and even waiving the minimum spending requirement. The karaoke room was a fun addition to the party, and the staff even joined in, singing happy birthday to us We were blown away by the restaurant's thoughtful gestures. The staff was attentive to our needs, providing extra plates and utensils for our birthday cake and generously offering complimentary mini desserts. The food was delicious and plentiful, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Overall, Kapiolani Seafood Restaurant exceeded our expectations in every way, making our birthday celebration truly memorable. We highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience with exceptional service. We can't wait to return next year!

Delicious spot if you're in the mood for some classic Chinese dishes! I was with a party of 3 on a Tuesday at 6:30pm. We were quickly seated and our food came out so fast! I highly recommend the fried rice, pepper steak, and green beans. They also have dim sum options as well! I'll be back to try their dim sum dishes!

This is my new favorite Chinese Restaurant! We ordered beef chow fun, beef butter melon and kau yuk( stewed pork belly). The beef chow fun is delicious look fun noodles with tender slices of beef with bean sprouts and chives. The look fun is soft and tender and there is a lot of beef! The bitter melon is the same tender beef with black bean sauce. The kau yuk is tender pork belly cooked with pickled cabbage. The pork is cooked in a ceramic pot so it's verry tender ,just melts in your mouth. The service here is quick and friendly! The ambience here is very classy for a Chinese restaurant Did I mention they serve dim sum all day? Also there is a lot of parking! Will be back to try other things like roast duck and garlic shrimp!

So far went for dinner and lunch, dim sum. Dine in. Both times the food and service were great. Server came by to check on water refills, take out boxes, etc. Ordered: Dinner Udon with seafood Clams with black bean sauce Ong choy with garlic sauce Ordered: Lunch Beef chow fun, gravy style Chicken feet Turnip cake Parsley shrimp dumpling House dumpling Shrimp look fun roll Siu mai, pork hash Restrooms located in restaurant Free parking in lot, can get crowded. Highly recommend.

Very clean, modern, upscale restaurant and the prices reflect that. Not your standard dim sum place. The tables were also fairly spaced out compared to other Chinese restaurants I love that you can order dim sum for dinner and there's no time limit in which they stop serving it. Tried a few dim sum dishes and a couple entrees. Got the fried seafood bean curd roll, bean curd roll, fried shrimp balls, chicken feet and abalone sticky rice. The bean curd rolls were both great! The abalone in the sticky rice was kinda chewy and overcooked. The chicken feet had a different flavor than the standard black bean flavor I'm used to but it was good. We also got crispy beef noodles and stir fry fish and veggies. The crispy noodles had a lot of gravy on it so the noodles were mostly all soggy . The fish and veggies were good though. Overall, most of the food had great flavor and I would recommend it!

A friend said this was his new favorite dim sum so I wanted to give it a shot. We came on a Sunday and it was really packed, which is always a good sign. Ordered the shrimp with celery dumplings ($6.50), shumai with rice and pork ($6.50), seafood bean curd rolls ($6.50), and the shrimp look fun ($8.50). It was probably too much shrimp - our favorite of the group was the shrimp look fun. Very delicate and rolls were perfectly cooked. Shrimp with celery dumpling was also good. It was the same filling in the seafood bean curd roll, though, which was a little too heavy for our tastes - we weren't expecting it to be deep fried - thought it'd be steamed. Shumai with the rice was fairly flavorless. Tea was free and there were lots of tea options! Overall it was good and we would come back if looking for afternoon or evening dim sum, but would probably try to order some other dishes. Service was responsive. Parking was easy and it's in town, which are two pluses.
