The rice roll is fresh, tasty and MASSIVE for 3 dollars. We got the mushroom one and shared it between two people with a little soy sauce. There’s no seating, it’s a grab and go place.
Walking and exploring around Chinatown Sunday morning, and I decided to get in and see what they were selling here...Wow they are very busy it should be good I thought, I must try something! They were noodles!! They were SO fresh and really really good, cheap and most of them were sold out early morning. I tried the Look Fun one, the only one available, no sauce to dip in like soy sauce or something, but I love it! I had to stop eating them...I was on my way to eat Chinese Dim Sum at Golden Palace.
Spotted their rice rolls and an intense-looking production line behind the counter while walking by, and decided to pick up a single roll to have for breakfast. What a good spontaneous move! *pats self on back* I wanted to try the mushroom version, but there was only char siu so I took that happily. A single rice roll (<$3 iirc) is actually a very long roll folded into a U shape so there is a ton of fresh noodle to enjoy!
I got an extra soy sauce packet with my Maguro Brothers’ chirashi bowl and enjoyed a fabulous breakfast of fresh fish and rice roll while leaning against the side of the building. 100% would recommend :) The noodle was springy and had a much cleaner, fresher flavor than the big, plastic-wrapped styrofoam trays you normally get at the market. A bit of saltiness from the soy, the fresh rice flavor, and tiny bits of char siu here and there - perfect and so cheap.
Came here because I saw them feature on Eaters. I like that their noodles are freshly made. They literally ground the rice to then add their Hawaiian water to make a milk like consistent. For me that’s good from scratch. However they lost their other start solo because there is just not enough filling for their mushroom and noodle rolls. A little extra would have been nice. Also I don’t like that they only offer soy sauce package. They should have in house soy sauce like how they offer them at dim sum restaurants.

They're one of the oldest shops in Chinatown. There look fun noodles are fantastic. You need to acquire a taste for bland food. However it is the best. You go try and tell me how you liked it.
After having Chinese dim sum at Golden Palace on North King St. Had to walk it off.
Strolling through Chinatown, my sister wanted to but look fun for dinner! Are you kidding me, we just ate.
?" .but, still had room to sample the char sui look fun, my first time!..,loved it. So from now on, I'll make it a point to pick some up.
Really good and cheap. 2 rolls about $6
This was a place that I grew up going to on a regular basis. All they sell is look funn in different flavors. Char siu is my favorite, but they also have shrimp, mushroom, and plain. Prices are very decent for a big long noodle! It is wrapped up in pink butcher paper and a rubber band! Look funn can be eaten as a soup in chicken broth or simply cold with shoyu! Either way it is delicious! Must stop here whenever you enter Chinatown!
Have to pay this place a visit when your in Honolulu, a piece of history... it's one of the oldest shops in town, over almost 80 yrs.
The best look funn anywhere. Long lines, fast service, large portions, and cheap prices.
