Wedding Cafe

This is a review of the banquet facility. Attended a banquet held in the courtyard. It was beautifully lit, with comfortable space for the appetizers during cocktail hour. The menu offered was excellent, I highly recommend the lobster bisque as well as the braised Short rib. The bar prices for alcohol were reasonable but for some reason soft drinks were noticeably overpriced, they allowed both cash and credit. Street parking was available nearby or down the block near the post office.

We discovered this restaurant some years ago and we were thrilled that it has survived Covid. After the Palace tour this is the best place to go for lunch and they give you a post tour discount. The chicken Caesar salad serve size is big and it really is tasty. In spite of many previous visits we only just found out that they do serve beer and wine. The Sauv Blanc was nice and the service was excellent. Thanks folks - a great family lunch much.

Cafe Julia is a stunning venue for wedding celebrations! It is easily accessible, located in the heart of Honolulu, the cafe offers a unique setting to exchange vows and celebrate with friends and family. The staff's attention to detail ensures an unforgettable experience. We always have a great time shooting at this venue!

I needed a place to be while a friend toured Palace. I had a reservation for 1 pm, but arrived earlier because of Palace tour. No problem! I chose a seat outside, ordered a lemonade and read for several hours. I was checked on regularly. I ordered Rissoto Balls which were fresh, hot and ONO! My friend helped me eat them, and sharing one order, we were satisfied, and simply ordered ice cream to finish a nice afternoon, in beautiful surroundings. With the history the YWCA brings with it, Cafe Julia is the perfect place to take out of town guests, in addition to a place for locals to enjoy.

Such a beautiful space to enjoy a coffee or lunch in the centre of Honolulu. After some sightseeing it appeared there was a lack of places to eat & drink that were not Starbucks. I am so pleased we went to Café Julia! Everything from the service, location and quality of food was excellent. Such a relaxing space and mainly locals - I highly recommend! I think Annie served me and she was ever so kind and attentive. Thank you!

My husband and I had our wedding reception at Cafe Julia in August of this year, and we can't say enough good things about this venue! Elijah, the manager, was incredible to work with- he was kind, reasonable, and answered my questions efficiently and in a timely manner. The rest of the staff was professional and polite the day of the event and made sure the two of us and our guests had everything we needed. The venue was beautiful and well maintained, and the food (we chose the 3 course surf + turf meal) was delicious. There were lots of little things the staff did that was unexpected and so sweet, for example, after we ran out of gin for the night, the bartender still made me one of my favorite drinks with the restaurant's alcohol on the house. The staff also cut our wedding cake and served it for everyone, had our drink menu displayed in the bar area, and sent us a small gift and card after the celebration. These little things were not mentioned in the wedding package, but they went above and beyond for our special day and I could not be more grateful!

We got married here November16/2022. We booked it few months earlier during the summer, and I have to say the experience was nothing less than wonderful! Communication was prompt and timely during business hours from Elijah. He was very kind, professional and accommodating. He followed every detail and answered all our questions. The venue is beautiful!!! The food and service (we had the buffet option) was reasonably priced and great! We will definitely be recommending this place to everyone!
