This is hands down the best breakfast I’ve had on my trip here. Originally started with an Açaí bowl which is fantastic, but I couldn’t resist trying the homemade corned beef hash which was 10/10. Then the friendly staff recommended I try the two eggs with fried rice and I couldn’t believe that I now had a breakfast compromised of my favorite things: eggs, fried rice, and corned beef hash. Super clean food and absolutely delicious. I’ll be thinking of this meal long after my trip. Thank you!!!!

The food wasn’t just the great part but also the aloha you get from the amazing owners! Auntie was so kind and welcoming! From the savory corned beef hash omelette and eggs benedict to the sweet Ube waffles — just perfect!
Parking wasn’t too bad but it could get a bit jammed during brunch.

First of all, the food was delicious. Our large school group ordered the entire menu and I can truthfully say there are no weak spots. I couldn’t decide what to order because the options were exactly what you want for breakfast/brunch. The eggs were cooked perfectly, the bagel was toasty and pillowy, the bacon wasn’t overcooked or undercooked. There were zero leftovers.
Secondly, and perhaps most importantly was the high quality service. The staff was not only kind and courteous but they clearly have servant’s hearts. Their love for their customer could be tasted in the yummy food. You have to go here if for no other reason to be met with true aloha.
Best in Kapa’a!

11/10, amazing cafe! Affordable and delicious food, open and fresh seating, and very quick service. There were a line of over 20 people and I saw that everyone was able to get their food very quickly. I had the two egg your way plate, and everything was seasoned to perfection and just how I like. Best food I had on my trip, 100% recommend

Everything was great! Small, quaint little diner with outside seating. Got the Ube Waffles and side of Portuguese sausage. Never even heard of Purple Sweet Potato so was hesitant, but turned out delicious! Great service, great food, and great atmosphere! Love from Ohio!

My wife and I stopped in for breakfast on 7/8/25. My wife had the Ube waffles and I had the Loco Moco and a side of Portuguese sausage. Everything was amazing. Didn’t have to wait long for a seat. Maybe 5-6 minutes If I could give more than 5 stars I definitely would. Food, atmosphere and service was outstanding. Definitely recommend eating here

Excellent food and service! Came in with a group of ~35 people, a huge undertaking for any establishment, and the staff handled our orders with grace and a smile. Aunty Anna was especially helpful. Delicious food, reasonable prices, fast service. Swing by if you’re in Kapa‘a!

Stumbled upon this gem on our drive around the island and we are so glad we did! We got 2 items from their daily specials as well as an açaí bowl and it was all so so good! Biscuits & gravy was absolutely delicious. We’ve been on the island for a week and this was by far our favorite breakfast we’ve had! Sweet staff and quick service too!
