Keoni by Keo's is a Thai Restaurant located on 2375 Kuhio Ave near Waikiki Beach. It's close to several hotels and other stores, which is a very convenient and visible location. It's one the restaurants we visited during the first two weeks of our stay in Honolulu. Every time we walk by, it looks pretty busy and I do like the outdoor seating area. Finally, we decided to give it a try. It looks nice and elegant from outside, but the decor inside was average and casual in my opinion. Serving was a little slow but the food tasted really fresh.
We ordered two dishes, Pad Thai with mixed vegetables and "Evil Jungle Prince" Curry with vegetables and tofu. The portion was average, but we felt really stuffed after. I believe that means the dishes contain a lot of oil and coconut milk :(
Pad Thai with mixed vegetables (around $15).
Came with fresh mixed vegetables (broccoli, red pepper, green pepper and bean sprouts), a few fried tofu and a little bowl of peanuts on the side. The vegetables were really nice and fresh, and I really liked it when the peanuts came in a separate bowl, which kept them a little crunchy. The only problem was the Pad Thai had a very strange flavor, which I had never had before. I didn't really like it, but it wasn't too bad.
"Evil Jungle Prince" Curry with vegetables and tofu (around $15).
On the menu, it says it's their special curry, which you won't find it at other places. If I didn't remember it wrong, we had to order rice separately (maybe $3 a bowl, brown rice). The curry tastes delicious, but I don't like the fact that they charge for rice separately. Usually rice just comes with curry.
