    Beef tail broth is an excellent dish for your health. It's full of collagen. I also make this rich and nutritious broth at home in Ukraine. It's cozy and peaceful here. The waitress is very nice. I recommend stopping by and trying this broth instead of all those noodle soups. There is a convenient, large parking lot for the shopping center. That's very convenient.

    Kam bowl is a very special place! If you’re a loco loco lover. You will be in the right place! I live in Honolulu for 4y and I had loco moco hundreds of times in different places. However, Kam bowl serves the BEST ONE in my opinion! You won’t regret! The portion is huge, their fried rice is so tasty! Waitresses are great! Flor de Lis and Irine were always the best every single time! Check it out!

    Kam bowl is an old school diner with a Hawaiian twist. The options on the menu are so extensive will throw you for a loop. Mostly Asian imported dishes and you will have trouble choosing. I went with the fried rice with an egg and the ramen. My buddy got the oxtail soup which is what they are known for. This place is a local legend and say anyone should roll by.

    Kam Bowl is a classic spot that never disappoints. It's comforting with a home style vibe. The place is always packed with locals, which is a good sign. My favorite is their signature Oxtail Soup. Rich, flavorful, and falling off the bone. Portions size is generous. Service is fast, efficient, and friendly. Prices are reasonable for the quality. Kam Bowl is the place if you are craving local comfort food.

    Being here for the very first time, I can appreciate the old vintage family style restaurants like this one. The food is no doubt amazing. And the service here in quick and super nice and friendly. I'm very happy to have come here and see that places like this still exist. So while they're still around... please, please, please, you need to come here and enjoy a meal from Kam Bowl Restaurant. Especially if you have a decent sized family. Their dishes are decently sized for families to share.

    We stopped in for breakfast and were surprised at the selection avaliable. The coffee was decent and the food was made quickly. The Pancakes were fluffy and tasted great and although it was busy the service was adequate. We will likely go again.

    The interior where you can feel the age was comfortable. There were a lot of menus, but I ordered a dish with cowtail soup and bacon. Coffee was served, and the waiting time was not boring It was early lunch on Sunday My husband didn't eat a lot of cowtail soup, but it was the most memorable Hawaiian food for me Cilantro is also cut into small pieces Some said cowtail soup was salty, but it was delicious
