Came here in a 4 person group at noon on a weekday. There is (coin-operated) metered parking and paid parking lot nearby but we just parked in front of a meter without paying... We only had to wait 10 minutes before we could get a booth. The servers were all super friendly and amiable, and we had good conversation with our server. We ordered a matcha cream bun and guava cinnamon roll which were part of their limited holiday bake sale menu, and the former was super delicious (the latter was alright at best). The other food we ate were all really yummy and well portioned. I wanna explore more of their menu. Enjoy!

Great food and service. Boozy brunch available inside but not on the patio. Excellent breakfast and lunch options, generous portions, friendly and attentive service. Went for my girlfriend’s birthday and it did not disappoint. Seems like the regular menu is a bit tighter than the specials. I got the congee and it was a bit different than I’m used to in terms of toppings but very high quality, super savory and filling. She got the chicken and eggs skillet and very much enjoyed it.

Yes, there will probably be a wait. Recommend that you get on the waitlist before arriving. Worth the wait. Food is really good, with interesting spins on familiar dishes. There were more things I wanted to try than I could eat.

It moved! Well I found out it moved awhile ago. The location used to be Victoria Inn where my grandpa and I used to have breakfast in 1970/80s. (Happy times). You can still get breakfast/brunch here. Opted in for the Kim chee/bacon scone of the day (very good). I ordered the “market price” fish and eggs (miso ono) with sautéed water spinach, soft scrambled eggs and pickles in a cast iron skillet that yielded some crackle rice. (Description was 5 stars, real dish was 3.5 because of dry ono and not much crackle rice) Hubby ordered the “kalua pork” omelette which resembled kalua pork meeting a French onion soup. Very tasty (5 stars). We sat outside and our server Lacey was very sweet and attentive.

The food is always amazing. But what really makes this place is the service. Everyone is so friendly and the kitchen staff is has fun. When you tip the kitchen, they all shout out and cheer for the beer money. It makes for a great dining experience. I would suggest coming in early or there will be a a bit of a wait for a table. We always go at opening, make an early breakfast day.

Stunning plating (you can never go wrong with personal cast irons). The food has string flavors but was definitely heavy. I personally really liked the koko moko’s gravy and patty, but the tempura kimchi on the plate may have been more of a fancy sell item and didn’t have much purpose. The other dishes were tasty as well; ohayou eggs had a unique creamy flavor.

We're big fans of LeAnn Wong (my apologies for any misspellings) from watching her on Top Chef - we were so glad this eatery was still operating by the time we got to Hawaii. Let me just say there was no disappointment - food, drinks, service were all excellent. The Strawberry Hula drink my wife got - I would have ordered a pitcher of that particular libation if we could have. I really liked the Koko Moco, my wife really liked the Breakfast Bibimbap, and the Greatest Hash Browns were great too. Cudos to our server, Maddy 'Mad Dog' - she was wonderful and I really liked her personality even though we only interacted for a short time. Also - gave the Kitchen People some direct love - threw $5 in their 'Beer Fund' jar and they rang their bell and celebrated enthusiastically! This place I thought just had soul - good food and a great team from the door to the kitchen. Thank you, Ms. Wong!

Our first breakfast spot in Oahu. We thoroughly enjoyed it. I got the "ohayou eggs" with the mega hashbroown on the side. I couldn't have wished for a better breakfast to start my trip. It was a healthy and heartly meal. The hasbrown was out of the world. Never had anything like that before. Our sever was friendly and very approachable. The atmosphere was vibrant. I paid about $60 USD for the above items and coffee. Definitely on the pricey end.

This was my favorite restaurant that I went to on Oahu! Our waiter was excellent! He was super funny and great suggestions, as we took all of them and each one hit. We got the cucumber lemonade, pickled veggies, a side of their hashbrowns, and I got the Koko Moco. The Koko Moco was insane! It had super crispy garlic rice, a delicious wagyu patty, a beautiful running egg, and tempura fried kimchi. This meal was fantastic!
