  CHINESE

While the range of international restaurants in Hawai'i may be narrow, the number of ethnic restaurants is very large. Most of these are family-run operations where the prices are right, the servings are ample and the fuss is minimal. More Asian and Southeast Asian restaurants are in the sections on dim sum, noodles, sushi bars, izakaya, takeout and yakiniku.




Kin Wah Chop Suey

Anytime you see chop suey in the name of an Island Chinese restaurant, you know what to expect: Cantonese food as interpreted in Hawai'i for four generations with an avalanche of menu items that range from authentic (beef with bitter melon) to thoroughly Westernized (lemon chicken). Noisy and always busy, inexpensive Kin Wah — headed by chef-owners Jian Wei Cheng and Kin Hang Kwok — is a classic of this type. Try the ginger won ton.
