My favorite Bangkok Chef is the one in Nuuanu, but with covid, they don't allow people to dine in. This one does, and the food is still real good! Yummy, delicious, satisfying. Space is clean and open. Parking is abundant and area is accessible and easy to find...right on Nimitz Highway.

Great food. Always smiles and consistent quality. It's a staple lunch spot for my work crew once a week.

It was busy tonight! I had the eggplant tofu, which was very good. A little too much Basil for me, but it was easy to pick around, and my husband ate it. Service was good. Hostess / Server / Busses was very friendly. The only issue with the Nimitz location is parking. We miss the one in Ewa Beach!

Great Thai food, much better than many Waikiki Thai restaurants. Very flavorful, no sugar added, great service as well!!

Great place. Friendly staff. We both ordered Pad Thai - one chicken and the other beef. It was good. I prefer a bit more sauce with the noodles, but that is preference only and didn't affect the taste.

The food was scrumptious! Highly recommend the Pumpkin Curry. We stuffed ourselves! The wait staff was so friendly and attentive. Great atmosphere, clean restrooms. We had a great time!

I just had the pleasure of trying Tom Kha Gai for the first time, and it was an absolute explosion of flavors that I savored with every spoonful. The rich, creamy coconut base perfectly balanced with the tangy zest of lime, the bright citrus notes of lemongrass, the warmth of galangal, and a subtle kick of chili made this Thai soup an instant favorite. I ordered from Bangkok Chef Nimitz in Honolulu, and they did not disappoint. The soup was fresh, aromatic, and delicious—definitely a dish I'll be craving again soon!

Amazing food at a good price!! Had leftovers that fed me for an extra meal. We had the green curry and fried long rice with pork. As a Southeast Asian, the taste was definitely similar to something back home. Fresh, Simple, Delicious!
