Palace Saimin is the epitome of a culinary experience that melds both tradition and modern-day authenticity. The moment you walk in, you're greeted by the nostalgic ambience reminiscent of classic noodle houses, but with an unmistakable touch of contemporary flair. The saimin bowls are nothing short of a masterpiece - the broth, rich and flavorful, melds seamlessly with the perfectly cooked noodles, evoking memories of homemade dishes. Each ingredient feels purposefully placed, from the delicate char siu to the crisp greens. Service is impeccable, ensuring a memorable dining experience from start to finish. For anyone seeking the true essence of saimin, Palace Saimin is a must-visit!

Great hole-in-the-wall place to visit if you like saimin or udon. "Local flavor" kind of family restaurant, which has been around for 75 years. Saimin is an unimposing dish, but this place does it really well. Excellent beef stick.

For nostalgic, simple, no frills Ramen. This place has been a rock in the community. Dine in is the experience to be had properly. Take out is meh... I order XL Saimin Double Garnish 2 BBQ stick 😋 👌

Simple menu, tasty food, and friendly service! We arrived 15 minutes before closing and we felt terrible so we ordered to go. The waitress was so sweet and offered us to dine in (because it tastes better) despite so close to closing time. Highly recommend!

Saimin and Wonton mein was tasty. Also tried their bbq sticks. Pretty good. Staff very nice and friendly. Beware of extra charge for Togo.

I was walking to 7/11 one evening to get beer when I got hit with this lovely aroma of bbq goodness. I had to go back and see what was up. I walked in and saw it was an old school SAIMIN place with the Coca Cola letter board that HAMURAS back on Kauai has! I knew at that moment I HAD to eat there . I told the lady working my order and sat down. They only have beef bbq sticks but that’s okay BECAUSE THEY WERE INCREDIBLE! I just got the small SAIMIN and one bbq stick. The SAIMIN was on point too. I can’t wait to go back im so happy I live near by. My check was only like $8.50!

Very simple menu posted on the wall and the servers were very friendly and attentive.
Saimin was good, the broth was light and matched well with the noodles and the slices of char siu. Was surprised by the bbq skewers they were really good, would recommend them with a bowl of noodles.
Will definitely be coming back. Just an FYI no AC so it can get a bit warm inside.

Love,love ,love Palace Saimin. Very simple menu and every item is delicious. The beef sticks are a must and make sure you get the extra sauce to soak them in. The place is small and very popular so seating may be an issue depending on what time you get there. Parking is equally limited but there are places around the restaurant that can accommodate you. Overall this is a place that shouldn't be missed.
