Anything that isn't vegan taste like trash. And I'm pretty sure they do it on purpose. The service was horrible and u was treated differently all for getting something that wasn't vegan. Literally my least favorite restaurant in Hawaii.

Besides the fact that they were out of a few items at the start of the day, it was really good food.The breakfast burrito was really good and very flavorful! The egg omelette was packed with meat (spam, bacon, ham). All great choices. Definitely give it a chance when it comes to happy hour.

Good food! And funny sign out front.(I thought they could benefit from a recipe for mai tais. But they apologized for not having almond liquor to put in it, and then comped me because of the lack of it. Who puts almond liquor in a mai tai, anyway? But aside from that, it didn't taste at all like a mai tai). Friendly service staff. Comfy booths.

Came here for Mother’s Day brunch. Got a few plates, all of it good; the pork loin, however, was top five best dishes I’ve had on the island.

I was hoping for more decor, or something, to flesh out the "conspiracy theory" theme. That said, the food was awesome (I had the vegan nuggets and fries, my companions had Loco Moco and some big egg breakfast thing. Both meat and meat-substitute offerings were delicious, perfect temperature, and served quickly. The staff were all friendly and attentive. I'm going ahead and giving 5 stars because I know my expectations for kitsch ambience are unrealistically high, and the lack of actual aliens, or whatever I expected, isn't cause to ding an otherwise perfect experience.

Happy hour daily 3-6pm. Noted 3/19/22

Their food is amazing!!! There are vegan options for almost every dish and it’s so full of flavor and variety. Absolutely a great late night spot and even serves breakfast options all day! Most go!

My fiancé and I are both vegetarian (not vegan) and this place is great! It was one of the only places we went in Honolulu where we were spoilt for choice. We had a burger each and they were great, although the Cajun fries were a bit soggy and not worth the upgrade.

Specifically went here for vegan options. Aside from the turtles pace of service and every aspect of our order being inaccurate, I was served REAL bacon on my vegan BLAT. I was skeptical at first but my non-vegan friend tried it and said “no this definitely isn’t real”, so I ate half the sandwich. A few hours later I went to eat the other half and it tasted funny so I threw it out. I started to feel sick so I grabbed the sandwich from the trash and was shocked to see, without a doubt, real bacon.I haven’t eaten meat in 5 years and I got SO sick after eating from here. To pride your restaurant on vegan options and serve animal products to people who specifically ask without is a huge health concern. Shame on you TOS.
