Had breakfast here with our three kids. Their Loco Moco, off the hook!!! Besides that,, I have to say, as the kids do, meh. We had two cheese omelets, and two chocolate chip pancakes.I must say, only order two pancakes, at most. One would be plenty for most. Don’t let them bring you three, price goes way up.The cheese omelets, were, missing the love. They tasted and were, plain. For the price, I expected at least to taste the love in food. That I did not.Cafeteria set up describes it best. Decor leaves a lot to wish for. Chairs are plain, and lay out follows suit. With the amount of locals, and tourists I saw in and out, along with limited staff, they should have enough to get a painting or two. It’s as if they had prices less than tourist spots, but high enough that you expected something amazing.Oh, coffee is as light as sunshine. Don’t order it. And they run out of hash browns by 10 am. So get in early, and don’t forget, don’t order the coffee.

Local breakfast and lunch spot in Lihue. Was perfect for breakfast on the way to the airport. Opens early which also worked well. My wife had a BLT sandwich and I had an eggs, toast and Portuguese sausage plate, both very good. With one coffee the bill was under $20. The decor is spartan but the service is friendly. We were the only two “tourists” is the place which had a line out the door when we left.

I was really looking forward to having a local Hawaiian dining experience on Kauai. This was not the place. The food was mediocre, the ambience totally lacking, and the service was far from friendly. I am not one to write reviews, but felt compelled to write about this place as it was very disappointing. I can overlook a lot, but when people don’t seem to appreciate your business, there’s no reason to go there. Would not recommend or ever go there again.

Our breakfast was delicious. I had two eggs, rice, the special pineapple sausage and coffee. The wait staff was very friendly. Hometown Hawaiian.

We wanted to have breakfast before our flight left. This is close by and had good reviews. Our bacon and two large fresh eggs with hash browns was exactly what we wanted. The fresh fresh delicious. Kona coffee was good.

friendly service nice atmosphere

Very relaxing, absolutely beautiful, great pilot, wish we could have gone to the east side, we were under the impression that we would see a complete circle of the island, not as fun as the one in Maui with the doors off but still not disappointed. ?

10/10 amazing! Their hamburger patty is so crispy on the outside, flavorful and soft. Perfect eggs, I mean perfect. Their gravy is so tasty, little bit of pepper, should have ordered an extra side cause no amount would have been enough. Perfect rice. The space is very clean, tables are spread apart nicely and everyone is wearing masks. We came late so a lot of things were sold out, which is my own fault. Can't wait to go back and have papaya pancakes that we're on special.

Very nice local spot. Food options are simple but delicious. It's pricey like everything else on the island but very reasonable compared to most other restaurants. Would recommend!
