    Long time Dim Sum and Take Out Chinese Food Restaurant. Small corner shop specializes in Dim Sum, comfort Chinese food, and Roasted Meats. They make an exceptional Gon Lo Mein and Beef Chowfun. Most orders are take out, but they do have a couple of tables inside if you're lucky enough to get one. Otherwise there's always the food court seating.

    This review is strictly based on my single visit for char siu manapuas. I had a hankering for a good manapua and found this gem by Don Quixote. I tried both the steamed and baked char siu manapua and they were both lovely. Between the two, I thought the steamed manapua was much more enjoyable. I will say there wasn't a lot of filling, but I was satisfied. Also, the char siu was a bit sweeter than I would've preferred. Still, a solid option for manapua and char siu fans. Fairly priced. The real star of this local business was the woman who helped me inside. I regret not having gotten her name but she was sweet and kind. She helped me navigate through my choices and was very patient.

    Favorite place to get manapua nowadays. I guess I never knew about this place growing up because it's located in town near the Don Quixote which I've never had to go to back in the day. I've only discovered this place within the last 5 yrs or so because we stay in Waikiki and it's just a 15- 20 min walk from whatever hotel we stay at. The manapua is so soft and steamy when we purchase it. We also get the Jin dui which comes in 3 flavors, char siu, black bean and coconut. I think the black bean is most popular. I've only been able to get it if I've gone earlier in the day. Sometimes the coconut or char siu are the only ones left, which are my favorite. These Jin dui are big too, not like the tiny ones you get in Chinese restaurants. I've also had some of the pastries filled with curry or char siu, those re some.of.my favorites as well. So flaky. They offer other dimsum, and plate lunches too. Workers are very fast and efficient. Especially when there is a line in the morning. You'd better know what you want when you get up there. It's pretty much all takeout because there is no seating indoors, but you can eat at the tables outside where all other diners go. First time I've ever gotten a box of manapua and looks like it will pack well for a plane ride home.
