★★★★★ 5.0 Scott Salter · Jan 2026

Friendly service. Wide variety of items from coffee, alcohol, and of course many delicious eats Our family of five enjoyed pizza, cheeseburgers, and fish tacos I I think the french fries were my favorite salty and delicious. Watch out for the birds hovering over nearby. Overall our experience was great and the price was the four wall. They accepted cash and credit

I stop by this café almost every day for my coffee, and it’s always a pleasure. They have delicious vegan bakery items, which is a great bonus. You can also grab dinner to go, and I really recommend the loco moco — it was absolutely delicious. The staff is always kind and welcoming, which makes the place even better. A great spot all around.

The food was fine. I had the salad with beets and chèvre. Quite enjoyed! Also, the skinny fries were tasty! The lady at the cashier was not so friendly, a bit dry.

Hidden GEM!!! This will be a must and the first place I would go to, once my family and I returns to the Beautiful island of Oahu! Best lechon I ever had!!! Very friendly people!!! In case you’re planning to visit Makapu’u Point light house trail!!! After a long hike. And hungry . Make sure to visit in this place for a delicious meal. Absolutely NO regrets!!!

Really amazing hidden gem - perfect for lunch or dinner after a day at Waimanalo beach. They have a fresh catch of the day and use it in different dishes. We had the Ahi tuna and it was amazing. Very rare friendly service. Would go again!
