Reviews for Rangoon Burmese kitchen in Honolulu, HI

I love trying new places to eat. This place was great. It definitely deserves 5 stars; here?s why it only got 4. The Samoa were... amazing such great taste and flavor the dipping sauce was mind blowing and it was frozen in the middle! I?m not posting to be ajerk. I could have provided feedback to the staff at the time but chose not to because they were getting busy. It would set thetone that were were ?those customers?. The Garlic Noodles with shrimp was also soooooo tasty, and it too was cold. My dish cameout first and the top of the food was hot the lower layers closer to the plate was not, yet the plate was hot. The GarlicNoodles should be don?t with anything but shrimp; it reminded me of a shrimp Pad Thai. The crispy bits of garlic really elevatedthe food textures of the soft noodles and crust fresh cucumbers. It was really impressed the flavors and the atmosphere. Thewait staff was friendly yet did not introduce themselves. I?d go again! The photos are the Samosas and the Garlic Noodles. Read more

Rangoon never disappoints. Such a solid spot. Must start with the tea leaf salad. Shrimp garlic noodle and coconut curry are... solid follow ups. Enjoy. Read more

After eating at their sister store Dagon we couldn't wait to try Rangoon. This location in Chinatown is larger and had a great... atmosphere. We made reservations for 8 and it was still quite busy so it was a good move. Our table was ready on time and wewere seated right away. Service was a little slow to start but once the ball was rolling everyone pitched in and we were welltaken care of. We all got everything from salads to curry and more. The mango salad was very tasty and highly recommend. Thecurry was good but a little lacking in flavor for me, but the lamb was well cook and super tender. The one thing I ordered andreally didn't like was the fried rice with veggies, my thought was the veggies would be chopped up small like a normal friedrice but actually everything was in big pieces and not very good. This is obviously my personal taste but I didn't like a warmsalad with rice in it. Overall everything was real good and I'd definitely return to try some more. Second trip to Rangoonwasn't as good as the first, service was a bit off. They were totally consumed with filling to go orders and put our dine foodafter. All meals were brought out at different times and mine was last and 30 mins after first. They can definitely do better. Read more

The food is unreal. Honestly one of the best places I've been to on Oahu!???????? The flavor is explosive, exotic and savory. We... had Coconut rice, Crispy Tofu, Palatha (bread) and two of the curries with Lamb and Chicken. My buddies said that wasoutstanding too. I'm vegetarian so didn't try those. Cannot wait to come back. Ty?????????? Read more

Walked in for dinner without reservation, the staff were friendly and had us seated quickly ! Ordered Nan Gyi Thoke noodles... (amazing dish rich in flavor and fresh ingredients) and chicken kebat (the spices and crispy vegetables work so well together inthis delicious dish) Would love to go back and try the other dishes. Highly recommend! Read more

Wow! What a wonderful experience. Stumbled in here on Christmas Eve and had the best meal of my life. The service was great. The... food was phenomenal. Read more

I have to say for not making reservations it was the best mistake. As a party of three we were seated at the bar, the bartender... was phenomenal. He had stories of the restaurant, owner and drink knowledge. All wonderful, enlightening knowledge to listen to.The food is absolutely delicious. Clean atmosphere, great, hardworking staff. Very Recommended! Read more
