Stopped in for lunch and had the beef lemongrass soup and lavender lemonade. The soup had just the right amount of heat and had good flavor. The lemonade was perfect not super sweet and the lavender added a nice touch. My order came out fairly quickly and the people working were friendly.

This crab soup special from broken rice easily makes my “top 3 best things I’ve eaten” on this trip. We went to The Pig and the Lady the day before, which is the Vietnamese restaurant everyone recommended to us and both of us loved broken rice more. The crab broth is so aromatic (I poured it in the bowl post-first photo – swipe right to see the after shot). There’s rice vermicelli noodles, fresh crab, Vietnamese ham, tofu, tomato and homemade meatballs with pork and crab I recommend getting their coconut tapioca (che) for dessert

Menu is a little smaller than a standard Vietnamese restaurant but dishes were good. The noodle dishes have an interesting take on the broths. Had the pork chops but next time I think I’ll do the oxtail noodle dish. Pate was also tasty. Parking available either in the metered stalls directly behind the restaurants or the lot next door (where Big City Diner and Happy Day are) is a paid lot that charges via a ticket so you don’t have to feed the meters.

We had very good broken rice with grilled pork here. And the price is super reasonable, since prices in Hawaii can get very crazy, we have got a lot of food. And the owner is very nice. Highly recommend this place!!

The food was served on paper plates. The egg roll was hard and bland. The pho was overly salted.

Yes, they’re still open. They’re a small Vietnamese restaurant with especially good rice. If you have “rice” in your name, you’d better have good rice. They do. The rice is soft and fluffy rather than sticky, but holds enough to come as a big scoop on your dish. The dishes themselves are well crafted. You can tell there’s a real chef behind the scenes who ensures the quality of the food. All in all, it’s a nice quiet spot for good food in Waialae.

Broken Rice is a small quaint Vietnamese restaurant located in Kaimuki near the corner of Koko Head Ave. The choices are limited and a few different takes on Vietnamese Cuisine. The food was flavorful and presented nicely. The portion sizes of the plates were a little small for the price. I had the Beef plate. Great flavor but $ would not make me come back for more. 3 other Vietnamese choices within 3 blocks will make it hard for me to come back for another try.

Super sweet owner! Gave us some free lemonade because of the door accidentally being locked. Great food as well! Thank you!!

My experience has been consistent quality of food, flavor and presentation. My favorite is the chicken and rice plate. In comparison to what $12 gets you in the surrounding area, I would rather spend those $12 here. The staff has always been friendly and welcoming. Disclaimer, I’m a stickler for rice and this is one area they do well in, others in the area, not so much.

Our one of favorite places in the area. It’s ran by a lovely couple, the home style food is delicious and comforting, always fresh and hot, definitely made with love! We usually get pho and shaken tofu – which is the most flavourful tofu we’ve ever had, and we’ve tried a loooooot of tofu. We’ll keep coming back.
