Curry King

I love tiny Royal Kitchen (take-out only). The locale may feel a bit run down and sketchy - this area is part of an aging downtown/Chinatown after all - but it's safe during the day to visit, and the dim sum here is excellent. Everything here is freshly made and delicious. I always get the baked manapua (char siu bao), pork hash & half moon. And the prices are very reasonable. Try it, you'll like it!

I heard about this place on my most recent trip to Oahu. Big Koa on Island 98.5 was talking about this place on the radio. My family and I decided to try their manapua's. Everyone in my family loved their manapua's. We also tried their pork hash. Everything was delicious, fresh, great prices and great customer service. We had their kalua pork and Portuguese sausage manapua's. They are baked and definitely better than the steamed manapua's we have tried at other places here. We will definitely be back for our next visit on Oahu.

Really good baked manapua, pork hash, and other dim sum. Cha Diu was great, and also the coconut bun, Okinawan sweet potato bun, and the Lup Cheong bun. The only thing is the phone order pickup system is confusing. I'd called ahead to order and given a pickup time which was confirmed by staff, only to arrive to a huge waiting line and be told I still has to wait in line for advance phone orders? Then halfway through the line a worker whisked me away to the front anyways and gave me my order. Don't think ordering ahead saved us any time whatsoever, but the eating was great!
