    Order at counter
    Gail U.

    12-24-24 a Christmas eve breakfadt, thanks Doc for treating dad and I. We came here cuz the line at AM was out the door and hubs had a 9 am pt appointment across the street. Few tables were occupied at 8 am but by 8:30 am the line to order was getting long. Food came out quickly but the hamburger and bangers were on the grill a bit too long- little bit charred.

    Had breakfast here with a friend. This place used to be known as Koa Pancake House in the top level of the Aiea Shopping Center. It wasn't crowded when we arrived but the small place started filling up fast. You order at the back by the register. We both had the EGG's and THINGS. Mine was with Vinha d'alhos. Taste was okay - not a mouth watering flavor. Not sure if there were two eggs or just one. But it wasn't over-easy like I asked for. Friend had Portuguese sausage with fried rice. We both enjoyed our meals. Wide selection of breakfast and lunch items. Prices are reasonable and good portion. Woman taking my order at the register was patient and polite.

    Bananan pancakes
    Ali D.

    Food was good. Ordered the aiea moco eggs scrambled and gravy on the side. A short stack banana pancakes that were so delicious! Service was quick, lady server was nice and brought the food to our table. Great service! Inside is small and can get crowded and may have to wait for seating, but not today.

    Corn beef hash with eggs and fried rice

    I ordered food here to take out for me and my parents. Ordered their full stack of macadamia nut pancakes which comes with 5 pancakes! Also ordered their 1 egg (scrambled) with fried rice and Portuguese sausage and their corn beef hash with eggs and fried rice. Everything was delish and food portions was generous! Prices are good too! Will def be back!

    Steak medium well, eggs over easy with fried rice

    Was pleased with this meal..steak done just like I like it; eggs were done perfectly as well. Good food and good price..

    Front entrance

    This is a small place with friendly service. We are tourists and were on our way from Waikiki to the Dole Plantation but needed a place to stop and eat. I just picked what happened to be closest to us. The place is up an escalator, there's no restroom inside but they'll give you a key to the one in the shopping center. You order at the front and they'll bring the food to you. Prices are decent. $15 omelet, $12.50 for eggs, 5 turkey links, and 3 fluffy pancakes. Worth it. The pancakes are excellent!! I was traveling with some picky eaters and we were all impressed. Good strong coffee as well. Would definitely return.

    Name change, phone number and hours of operation.

    I wanted to retract my comment about not having toast perhaps maybe it was specific to ordering eggs Benedict because it's served with muffins whereas if I ordered bacon and eggs toast would be an option. I don't know so for that I stand corrected, my bad. BUT if they do NOT serve toast at all, then I wish they would.

    Located at the Aiea shopping center, second floor, The local breakfast, pancakes and lunch plates are cheap, but they were too oily and basic. Nothing really stood out for me. The servings were average, and didn't make us satisfied because it was a little overcooked and a little chewy. Limited seats, and a line forms in the middle of the booth. No wipes to wipe the tables, and garbage can is on the right of the counter where we ordered. Employees were nice and accomodating, but we had to wait a while for our food. Overall this place is ok, but I don't think I'll frequent here. Lots of parking since it is at the aiea shopping center.

    Koa burrito
    Abigail A.

    Love their burrito, took it to go and I was pleasantly surprised they sliced it AND packaged two dippings, sour cream and salsa. The price point is just right and the portioning is always enough for me. Very happy and will probably try their other burritos. They were busy but the service was quick!

    Portuguese sausage with scrambled eggs and pancakes

    Not sure how to get Yelp to change this restaurant to AIEA PANCAKE HOUSE. Everything looks the same except "Koa" has been replaced with "Aiea" on the signs in the windows and inside. Menu looks the same, too. We went on a Sunday morning around 10:30. We seemed to have come in between the early morning diners and the lunch crowd. When we were walking in, several diners were leaving. As we ate our food, a line of new diners came in. Some were getting take out. What I like - they still serve Scottish Bangers! I only know of one other pancake place that does. The food was arranged very nicely on our plates. Nicer than before, I liked that tiny improvement. Quality of the food and the service was still the same. Door was open and it was a little warm. I guess the AC wasn't working well. But we were ok - a little warm is not the same as hot. We enjoyed our meal and of course will be back.

    Special #1 Omlete
    Marc H.

    If you are looking for a good and affordable breakfast spot near the Honolulu airport, this is an option to check out. Simple, yet pleasant. You can find a variety of breakfast items, and they offer specials too (I got the special #1 omelet - see pic). It took a little while to get our food, but not bad. The omelet I got was prepared well and was good. If you need to use the restroom, ask for the key and it is a short walk past some of the stores. My wife said the pancakes were good. My son who is super picky enjoyed the corned beef hash. I think the name of this place has changed. It is now called Aiea Pancake House.

    Aiea omelette with potatoes
    Paul Q.

    2nd time in a week returning here. I got the Aiea omelette (Spinach,mushroom, cheese, & Portuguese sausage) with potatoes. Which are over an inch in diameter. I'm use to seeing tiny ones. Also the strawberry and whip cream waffle. I prefer to eat my food ASAP so please excuse the pic but I was finished by the time I decided to make this review. Service was great too. Checked multiple times if I was ok and even brought my take out order to me. Definitely recommend coming here.

    My sister was in town and wanted to try Sweet Corner Cafe. I was apprehensive at first because of…read morethe location which could be categorized as hidden. Its location was a mystery and the way the food disappeared off our plates was the magic. We were met with love and we were served love in our to go containers. We ordered house fried noodles, orange chicken, house fried gyoza, vegetarian spring rolls with sides of white rice and various, delicious tea drinks. I have never had bacon in my fried noodles before and I know bacon makes most things taste better but this was truly the cherry on top. I loved the noodles. I love thin noodles like angel hair pasta and finally I've found a place that serves a thin fried noodle. It was delicious. The orange chicken was hot and tasty and we didn't get any fatty pieces which made it perfect!! That's huge to my family. Speaking of which, I have a big family we're talking 8 people and the portions at this place were delightfully generous. You might be buying dinner today but you'll likely have lunch for tomorrow too! I don't know what they put in the drinks but I am hooked. My goodness! Iced-Cool Liquid happiness for my tongue, throat, stomach and soul. I was upset when it was gone. I'm still upset. This place is truly off the beaten path but worth the effort to find and dine. Drive directly down the alley when you see the Sweet Corner Cafe sign on the corner(keep your eyes peeled). Go all the way down, you'll be able to turn around and there's parking along a building.

Thank you for having fountain drinks. I hate to go on about it, but it's annoying when people have cans and they charge you like four bucks. The big red cup is enough to satisfy thirsty folks like me. A little 12 ounce can is not. So let's see, we got the special which was a French toast. I got to say, giant portions and everything was real tasty. That's actually something that should be called on. The prices is very good for the amount of food you get. I was very happy with this place overall with that. My kid got the ube pancake which she was really happy about it because it's basically like having a slice of cake because it's so big and deliciously sweet I got the sampler cause I couldn't decide but in retrospect, I probably would have gotten the seafood Benedict. Because that was really my favorite of the sampler the Moko was great, but Benedict was amazing. I'm always a little hesitant on reviews for places when a vacationing because there's a bit of a bias, but this place will definitely worth it.

Although it was a 25 minute drive, we would probably wait that much anyways waiting for someone to acknowledge us over at Eggs N Things. Anyways the minute we walked we were greeted right away by a server and told us we can sit in any of the open tables. Servers were friendly and very attentive. We ordered the Da Local Omelette, the Longsilog and I had the ube mascarpone with french toast. Everything was delicious! I didnt get to taste the omelette since my daughter devoured it within a few minutes. I'm taking that as a sign that it was good. I was able to taste the longsilog with the fried rice and it was tasty as well. I might have to tey that next time. The Ube Mascarpone did not disappoint. Very creamy and the right amount of sweetness. Although I coulndt finish it, I did finish the rest when I got home. And while we were eating I noticed that place got full and busy right away. A family came in and a server approcahed them and told them they might have to wait for a few minutes since all the table were full. And guess what? Since the family's presence was acknowledged, the family actually waited outside. See that eggs n things? People actually wait as long as you acknowledge them! Anyways , we have a new place to bring friends to that are visiting Hawaii. Food is delicious, warm ambiance and friendly staff! This place is highly recommended!
