Pho Bistro II

A family restaurant, not a chain, with wonderful attentive service and genuine tasty Vietnamese cuisine. About 10 min walk from Waikiki, closes at 8pm 😔

The other reviews were spot on. The oxtail soup was great. It's very generously sized... Be sure you are hungry before visiting!

They have the best tasting papaya salad. We really loved and enjoyed it. They were fast and friendly. Although the restaurant name outside is a different name, not Pho Bistro. It was Ocean something, I can't quite remember.

Man, what an amazing experience! The owner was so friendly and welcoming, it instantly felt like we were visiting family. I ordered the combination pho, and wow—the broth was absolutely incredible. I didn’t need to add oyster sauce or sriracha; it was perfect just as it was. We also ordered spring rolls, and those were fantastic—fresh, flavorful, and even my 2-year-old son loved them! He got some noodles too, and he couldn’t get enough. For dessert, we tried the purple tapioca, and man, that was the perfect sweet ending. This place is truly a hidden gem—a hole-in-the-wall, mom-and-pop shop that delivers on both service and flavor. I’d recommend it to anyone, and I’ll definitely be back next time we’re in Hawaii. Amazing service, amazing food!

A very good Pho restaurant to get your fix of Pho craving. The Pho here comes with two different sizes. I got the Large and it definitely filled me up and it was well worth it for a dollar or two more. Since it is in Honolulu it is a bit more pricey but it is well worth it. Spent $20 for the beef combo large pho. The broth is great here wasn't as salty as some of the other places I've been too. A perfect balance of taste. The meat I got for the pho was thinly sliced and very easy to eat. They did have other items on the menu but I didn't try. They have plenty of tables and if you get the Pho it'll come out quick so you won't wait long for a table to leave. Overall, a well worth of a visit here to check out the pho if you are craving it.
