"Hidden Gem for local food. Awesome bbq plates. Super friendly ohana vibes. The Mahi Pasta Alfredo was epic with them homemade butters. The bbq Chicken and Kailua Pork plate were super filling. Highly Recommend"

"This was the best BLT sandwich I have ever tasted. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the food was spectacular. My kid really liked the 'there is a $5 fine for whining.' This cafe had really good french fries too. I highly recommend this cafe for a lunch stop."

"Were baited for the chicken risotto as the reviews mentioned it is good. But looks like it is a special item and they dont sell it everyday. Blacked Mahi was not blackened. It was seared very minimally. But the tartar sauce they gave was nice. Shrimp pasta was great but lots of salt. The food portions are generous and they do take customizations. Ask for recommendations as the staff is nice and go above and beyond to help."

"We came for the Lilikoi butter burger. It was delicious. We also enjoyed fried ice cream, cheesy, garlic fries. The lilikoi lemonade can be blended if you ask, and the lilikoi shake was sweet and creamy. The ladies at the counter were nice. We were stuffed and happy when we finished eating at the bench just outside the building. It was a good spot. Also, they gave us a sample of a Japanese donut with lilkoi cre on top-very good-slight sugar crunch on the outside and soft on the inside."

"The food was amazing! It is only for To Go orders but there is a little bench outside. The Buffalo chicken salad was the best I’ve ever had. Our kids devoured their burgers from the kid’s menu and my husband loved the Local Plate!"
