Kahuna mimosa on Sunday morning... Comes in a pint glass... $10... Totally worth it. The Avocado Toast was amazing! Definitely good to split with someone. The red pepper flakes add just a bit of zip. I got the Te Mana Toast with a fried egg, and hot damn is it delicious. It's got raisins, onions, pepitas, heaven, love and a dash of amazing flavor. It's just a peaceful spot in OB to get a lazy Sunday morning breakfast.

First time visit and I gave it 5 stars for the delicious food, coffee, atmosphere and service!!! I ordered the Olu Olu bagel on an everything bun, and it comes with cucumber, spinach, honey, vinaigrette, cream cheese, avocado, and tomato. Plus, an iced Vietnamese coffee, it’s a little on the bitter side; sometimes people make it sweeter so maybe this is just their style. I love the Hawaiian theme, cozy indoor and outdoor seating. Very tidy and beautifully decorated. They had a large menu of sandwiches, salads, plates, smoothies, teas and coffee!! I can’t wait to visit again.

Great breakfast, service is a bit slow because they make everything as it's ordered so no complaints at all. Live music when we were there on a Sunday.

Got the Hawaiian plate and the Cubano coffee. Definitely worth coming again. The pork had a great smokey flavor and the mouthwatering smell of the smoked pork proceeding it was worth the wait (wasn't very long).

One of our favorite places to visit in San Diego ... especially like it for morning coffee and breakfast ... like stepping into a Hawaiian hideaway ...

Owners and staff are so friendly and laid back. We were a large order of 5 and food came out quick and was delicious. We had the Hawaiian plate (pulled pork and chicken) and the morning mana which you can add Spam (trip down memory lane). The food is delicious and the outdoor cafe area is great!

Laid back cafe with a lovely patio and friendly staff. We had the Maui bowl, lox bagel, and a couple coffees. Enjoyed our morning so much that we added a couple $5 mimosas into the mix!

A one of a kind little place that has a cool, funky atmosphere, great coffee and very good food with some unusual flavor combinations. Best of all it's not pretentious. If I lived in the area I would definitely be a regular. I look forward to visiting again on my next trip to the area.

Good food and ambience. Can't believe we were able to get a table at 11 on a Sunday! Great spot for breakfast and real Hawaiian beach atmosphere. Reminded me of places in Maui I went to.

Great place, chill vibe. Nice music playing. Dog friendly is a huge plus for me as I have a esa dog that goes everywhere with me. Food was scrumptious...service was great. Feels very homey and comfortable..Love the art for sale. Surprised I have waited so long to come here.

By far my favorite hidden spot in Ocean Beach. Hawaiian inspired dishes that don't disappoint. Smoothies that don't make me feel like I've just drank enough sugar to last me a lifetime. The staff is friendly and the service is fast. I love that the cafe is an old house. You can sit inside or on the wonderful patio and enjoy the sunshine. I suggest ordering the morning mana and Maui wowwy for a perfect breakfast

Great experience at Te Mana Cafe! I've visited four times now and enjoyed each trip! For a chill, relaxing vibe, tasty food (the mehalini bagel is absolutely delicious!) and the best matcha latte I've ever had, I happily suggest checking them out!

Everything is great here, including the owners and employees. Great breakfast dishes as well as traditional Hawaiin plates. Only reason it doesn't get 5 Stars is because it's about 20% more expensive than everywhere else, i.e. a breakfast sandwich on a bagel will run you $10. You can go literally anywhere else and get something similar for $6-$8.

Love this place. Feels like on the island, great coffee, beautiful landscape, great team. Food looks really good and fresh as well, I'll put more review about it once I'll have brunch there.

Super dog friendly :) The American breakfast was pretty basic but I was a huge fan of the dirty chai with coconut milk. The acai bowl was pretty good as well. The ambience was pretty rad. Will be back again!

I love this hometown, cozy restaurant cafe. The style here is an organically-grown, family-owned and operated LOCALS joint with the flair of a staycation. While your butt is cradled in the comfy chairs one can enjoy any number of delicious drinks. Lime in the Coconut is hands down my favorite drink right now. It has the right amount of sweetness accompanying the tart and creamy flavor of the fruity components. Food wise, this place has you covered! Hawaiian plates and salads are always fresh and crafted with love. I never feel rushed or get the sense that the people working here consider this a "job".. maybe its the reggae! I definitely feel a sense of community and leisure when I lounge here sipping a tea or dirty chai.

Cosy little house, lots of nooks where you can drink your coffee. Real fire was burning in the fireplace on this cold February day. Hardwood floors, plenty of outdoor seating in the enclosed yard, dog friendly, lots of plants. Perfect ambiance. Service was good, casual, friendly. Coffee and pastries were tasty. Great place to hang out, study, or take a date.
