Waioli Kitchen And Bake Shop

This is a lovely cafe with good food, a cozy atmosphere and beautiful gardens surrounding it. There are not many vegan friendly options (you could do the avocado toast but have to ask without eggs or cheese) but you can get vegetarian options. If you don't want a full meal, they have yummy baked goods to much on or you could also sip on some of their hot or cold beverages. If you're going to Manoa falls, this place would be great before or after your hike.

We went here twice for breakfast during our Hawaii trip. And oh boy is it a gem! Busy around 9AM, maybe a 15 min wait in line to order and then a 15 minute wait for food- so this isn’t a place you’d want to eat in a rush. But that’s for the best- because conversing with the Owner(s) truly made this place seem extra special! Did you know the honey used (we like honey on our pancakes and requested some vs maple syrup or the coconut cream) comes from their own personal (German) bees? These people care deeply about their restaurant, the food they serve, and their customers. See you next time!

We just happened to google this hidden gem nestled in the trees in a cute old building. Cozy place for take out or plenty of inside/outside spots to sit. I had the avocado egg on toast which was one of the best breakfasts I’ve ever had! My husband had the egg croissant which he enjoyed but would have added a meat. We both enjoyed the blueberry scones. Highly recommend for breakfast or lunch on way to falls.

You can't go wrong here. I just knew I had made the right decision to eat here as I walked towards the restaurant. I tried the Short Rib Loco Moco. It is your favorite Loco Moco on steroids. The flavors are amazing. You get 2 short ribs that are super tender and full of flavor. The gravy is a bold beef flavor that has to come from the short ribs drippings. The eggs were prepared exactly as I requested (over medium and no runny whites). I asked for half of the normal rice. Everything was perfect and then it got better. The flavors of this took me to my childhood Sunday lunch. It was really good pot roast and the best gravy. Comfort!!! I will come back for sure! The Banana Macadamia Nut Pancakes with Coconut syrup were very good as well. Portions were big. I also recommend that you get the French Press Coffee as well if you like Coffee. Again, you can't go wrong here!

This is an amazing and beautiful place. The owner employs men and women that are going through the Salvation Army rehab program. The customer service, the food and pastries were right on!! I highly recommend going to this restaurant while in Honolulu. The prices are affordable. Everything in Hawaii is double what you pay elsewhere, so eating here is a good deal

Popular spot for locals and tourists. It was quite busy when we arrived. You order your food at the counter and then grab a seat. Servers bring out your order to you. Although it was busy, our food came out relatively quickly! Everyone enjoyed their meals and we all got baked goods for the road too. Very nice atmosphere with open air dining.
