WORTH THE WAIT! The views are incredible and the food is oh soooo good!! I am personally not a fried rice fan...until I had it here! We had a 1/2 portion of fried rice (with leftovers) and the the mac nut, pineapple, banana pancakes. It was all so good, and the service was incredible, they even offered to store our leftovers when they heard we were going to the beach. Some of the best (if not the best) breakfast we had in west Maui.
Got there around 7:30am and there was already a line up. The banana pancakes were awesome. The fried rice with eggs was good. Cute place, went there since it was walking distance from the from our hotel. And the staff was extremely friendly and kind.
Don't let the long lines deter you from giving this little gem a try. The food, service and atmosphere are absolutely phenomenal! We did have a 1 hour wait in line. They do provide a few large handheld umbrellas if needed for sunscreening while you are waiting. Once we were seated the service was quick but not rushed. The menu focuses on breakfast/ brunch/ lunch. The Mac nut pancakes are to die for and highly recommended. One member of our party had the half order fried rice which was actually enough for three people. The flavor was amazing! Would highly recommend giving this place a try. Totally worth the wait...
The thing with Maui is sometimes places with long lines can have very mediocre food or they can have long lines with great tasting food. This place had a long line but the food was above par. The view was amazing from our table. Juices were refreshing. Service was good, they were packed. Decent prices. I took off a star because of the long wait.
-POG juice 5/5
-pineapple juice 5/5
-pineapple spears 5/5 - pineapples taste sweeter here than back home in Illinois
-big Kahuna omelet 5/5
-macadamia nut pancakes 5/5 - was recommended. A lot of flavor.
Amazing little spot with great views to have breakfast. We arrived at 9:30am and waited for just under an hour for a table as the restaurant is pretty small but it was well worth the wait. They let you order one pancake rather two if you're wanting to try more things, which we did! The fried rice and breakfast burrito combination we ordered was a great savoury fix with a banana mac nut pancake with their coconut syrup and maple syrup on the side for a sweet fix.
Would definitely recommend to make it out here while you're in maui!
Great breakfast experience with a spectacular view. We shared the white chocolate mac nut pancakes and the Maui omelet. Go early! We arrived a little before 7:30 and still waited almost an hour and a half. So glad we waited!

This place is a MUST!!! Anyone wondering - YES the wait is most definitely worth it. My partner and I went in late May and arrived on a Sunday morning around 7:20 am. We found a parking place no problem walked up to quite a line already! No I will say I was naive and did not know how insanely popular or the wait typically was. My partner was all prepared for this. I’m like but they are not even open?! Ha ha !!
When I saw two couples with beach chairs sitting in line I knew 1) this was serious and 2) their food must be next level legit!!
We waited in line until we were seated just shortly after 9 but the views were stunning as we waited! Ocean front views ahead of us, warm salty breeze mixed with aroma of pancakes YUM!!
When we were sat our server was so friendly and had a great sense of humor which we love and appreciate. She made some recommendations and we split the white chocolate macadamia nut pancakes and the Maui omelet. We also tried POG juice for first time and WOW. Soooo delicious!
Sooo… let my me tell you about these pancakes my friends. I’m a little bit particular about pancakes as I’m sure many are. These were next level. They were thick and fluffy - but not dry and too cakey. They had Mac nuts IN the pancake AND a little pile of crumbled nuts on top with some white chocolate chips and a pile of homemade whipped cream that had such a unique flavor!! Delicious comforting and addictive! They are also ginormous as they are as big as the plate!
We split the Maui omelette which was ham and pineapple with Swiss cheese. I usually get cheddar by default and thought why not? So delicious - salty but not over the top with the Swiss and ham but creamy as well. The touch of sweetness from the pineapple helped offset the salty notes the ham and cheese provide.
The potatoes were delicious with the eggs too. Gently fried but never burnt. I’m not a huge potato person so I wanted more pancakes for my carb choice but they were really tasty.
All this and comes with a side of toast with your choice of jams.
Service was fast, friendly and she didn’t miss a beat. Even coming around to tell a joke or two - just going the extra mile all the way around.
Such a treat to start the day and on our first day of our trip - treat yourself and indulge in these one of a kind pancakes with gorgeous views- just get there early or bring beach chairs! Ha ha! We will be back!!! :)
Oh one tip - if you have time after you eat and want to walk off some of the pancake you enjoyed go down to the beach behind the restaurant. There is a short walkway with steps to a beach with black rocks sand and beautiful clear water. It was fun to hang around down there for a bit. I took my shoes off and put my feet in got some pics. If you plan to do this take some change of shoes And a towel to wipe off sandy feet. :)
Enjoy!!!
Excellent food. Fluffy pancakes with pineapple syrup and maple syrup that was absolutely wonderful to the pallot. The coffee was fresh. The view is picture perfect with the waves crashing against the rocks
We waited in a long line, and it was raining on us. Unfortunately, there isn't a cover over you if you are waiting in line.
After reading countless reviews we decided to brave the wait in line and we certainly weren’t disappointed!
There was plenty of parking when we arrived at 7:10 (20 mins before opening) and were sat at 8:35. Food arrived with in 10 mins of ordering and the service was fantastic. Our waitress was friendly, funny, and attentive.
We ordered the combo macadamia nut pancakes (you can ask for just one pancake if you don’t want a full order of two) , the breakfast burrito, and a half order of fried rice. Portions are large and all were delicious, definitely recommend trying their coconut syrup!
We walked around the property after breakfast, the views are gorgeous.
When heading back to the car around 9:30 we noticed the line was significantly shorter which made us question if rushing to the restaurant early “to beat the line” is what everyone does which in turn is really the cause of the massive line to begin with.
Ps. Watch for the birds, they’re not shy about wanting some of your food haha
Get there early to wait in line! We arrived there about 45 minutes early, and we were about the 10th group in line. The wait is well worth it, though, because the food was amazing! Our waitress was amazing as well. She was super helpful on which items are local favorites, which drink ls are the best, and even had some funny tricks up her sleeves! Highly recommend the eggs Benedict and the white chocolate Mac nut pancakes! They have their own homemade coconut syrup that is off the hook!! Fyi, you will be standing in line outside. So, if it looks like bad weather, bring a rain jacket.
