Diem 99 Cafe

99 Diem Cafe used to be locate in the Ranch/ Moanalua 99. They now have two locations! The Sand Island location is in the former spot of Sand Island Chop Suey next to Subway and another location at Pearlridge Shopping Center.I've tried their sandwiches and oxtail soup at the precious location, but It wasn't until after I've tried the super roll at this location, I fell in love with the rolls and kept ordering it! They have a lot variety of selection on the menu but I really like their Super rolls! The chicken spring roll was in the summer roll all sliced like a maki sushi. The wrapper was so soft and even if the spring rolls were fried, it felt like I'm eating something healthy wrapped around with vermicelli noodles, possibly basil and rice wrapper on the outside! So yummy with the fish sauce or hot sauce for some. I could eat all twelve super rolls! I managed to save some for Mom.No other restaurants seemed to have this special so when I have the chance, I would stop by to get some!!! It' was something different and so good! I wanted to try other items on the menu but I keep getting the Super rolls!! Try it, I know you will like it too!

They are located on Sand Island right next to Subway. If going during the weekday be sure to go before lunch because the area gets very very packed with all the truck drivers and people double parking everywhere. There is about 6 stalls out front. I ordered the super rolls, which is a spring roll in rice paper with vermicelli noodles lettuce and mint I think. The plate is huge I think I only ate half. Only down side is it gets hard the next day. But soooo good!

Located at Sand island just off the Mauka bound at the Diamond head side of Sand Island access road, here is this little shop with a few tables inside, I want a Vietnamese sandwich and I call to placed my order, friendly staff, sandwich ready I just 5 to 10 minutes. The sandwich is well packaged and they accept credit card payment even for just a sandwich. There are a lot of Vietnamese restaurants in the area but lot of them do not offer sandwiches any more. There is not much parking in front of the restaurant so you may have to wait for the parking.

Love how this place is close to work! I went to their new Sand Island location. They used to be in the 99 Ranch building. I got their lemongrass chicken banh mi and their bbq pork and spring rolls vermicilli noodles. Everything is delish here! Don't forget to try their taro tapioca dessert too!

The super rolls are so amazing!! My favorite thing on the menu highly recommend. Great service, employee are very friendly Cute , hold in the wall shop

Yay for reopening after their closing at Ranch\Moanalua 99!My faves are their super rolls and lemon grass bánh mi!

Mom raved about this place after having a positive experience with friends and urged me to give it a try. I'm glad that I did! The service was friendly and fast. You can get all sorts of comfort food in the Pearlridge Food Court from Diem 99. Just be sure to get a big stack of napkins. Most of the food is fried and best not to keep it in the bottom of your bag. Don't even think about smuggling this food into the theater next door. The oil will drip and blow your cover.

NOTE: THIS REVIEW IS FOR THEIR NEW LOCATION AT PEARLRIDGE WAI MAKAI FOODCOURT. (Can't pull it up on Yelp as a separate location.)Have been eyeing the space with the sign saying "coming soon" between Yummy's and Sbarro for weeks. Finally! We visited Friday afternoon 8/4 and they were open! They have a pager to let you know when your food is ready. We ordered take out even though we were eating there just in case we wanted to take some food home. Turns out we ate it all. Daughter had the spring rolls on vermicelli cold noodles. They sliced the spring rolls thinly and she liked that. I had the beef and beef ball pho meal, which comes with two spring rolls. Everything tasted good. Not outstanding, but good basic Vietnamese food. Pho broth was good and nice and hot. Pho noodles and some cooked bean sprouts were in a separate container from the broth. Basil (two types - see picture) and more raw bean sprouts were in a plastic bag, along with a slice of lime. Noodles were properly al dente so they wouldn't disintegrate when added to the hot broth. No idea why they gave both cooked bean sprouts and raw, but that wasn't a problem. They gave plenty of noodles but not enough basil. (Next time I'll just ask for more in lieu of all that bean sprouts.). They didn't give enough sauce. It was as if they gave for only one entree, but we asked for and got more plum sauce. They also give chili oil. No jalapeños for those that care. Overall. a good meal. Very filling. Nice to have Vietnamese food at Pearlridge again, it's been a really long time. Would return here again.

As they greeted me with a smile I excitedly questioned them about the vegetables on this sandwich. I was halfway through my sandwich when I remembered to take pictures. It was so good and flavorful. Highly recommend if you don't consume meat. Probably grab another before heading to the airport.

Trying a new food place, Diem 99 Cafe--Pearlridge Food Court Phase II. Whammoo! --for sure a return visit is warranted! I tried s Bahn Mi Barbecued Chicken sandwich. Deliciously different from other chicken sandwiches I've tried. You're digitally signaled when your order is ready for pickup.Phase II food court, brightly lit, offer a variety of good options. Lots of booths for comfortable visiting, setups for large group or counter seating.This place was busy! I can't wait to return to try other menu items!
