    I've ordered the açai bowls, avocado toast, and a few of their juices before from Alo Cafe via Grub HUB and Door Dash. All were very good, and I must have ordered again becuz at the time I had foot surgery and wanted to check out the places around downtown that offered vegan, healthy options. I was glad for the opportunity to try these places in spite of my limited condition at the time. Most recently, last week, April 2nd, I was literally in the area, walking around, and decided to have a late breakfast. I am so glad I walked in! The 2 ladies there were very nice and friendly. I had the mushroom burrito, vegetarian, becuz this usually comes with chicken. I also had their Love n Peace smoothie. The burrito was flavorful and I enjoyed it very much. Nice and filling. I actually saved half of the burrito for an early dinner later that day. My only complaint is I wanted it grilled, becuz I dont care for a soft tortilla, but it was still good. The smoothie was a bit too sweet for my taste. So, next time, I'll just stick to the juices. All in all, I really enjoyed the atmosphere and relaxed vibe of the Cafe. You will see from the pictures I took, it was a chill sorta spot you can hang out with friends, or if you want some alone time to just relax and have something healthy. There was also some cool merch for sale. Great experience!

    It's so nice to havens super healthy lunch option on those days you are feeling you need the boost. Times you feel like you have been eating so bad and need place to have something light and refreshing..here Alo is to offer a yummy something. The açaí bowl is our favorite with lotsa granola, bananas, berries, seed and honey utop acai. So good. The cafe is cozy with chairs and couches to lounge upon. The music is soothing and this is a relaxing atmosphere to wait while your foods are being prepared. I tried the banana bread and it's healthy tasting. I think I prefer a little more butter and sugar. Food is made to order so things take a little longer to be prepared. Servers all look very healthy and fit. Think it's more incentive for customers to order something good for your body to become more health conscious.

    Blueberry muffin

    The owner is super nice and I really appreciate the service. Definitely a business I'd love to support. Their chicken burrito is huge so I couldn't finish. It's pretty tasty and they got a lot of healthy options. A little side story- I ordered my food and was waiting inside and an elderly came in and asked me to pay for his food and I did. The owner initially insisted to give him free food, but I did pay for him. Weeks later I went back, she remembered me and gave me and my coworker free blueberry muffins they baked. They were so big and packed with blueberries. It was delicious!! This business carries Aloha and I think people should check it out!

    I get the small acai bowl that says $14.98 and they charged me to large for 16.50? and i added tip and come out my bill to 17.50

    Fix your pricing,how much is acai bowl the small ? Is it 14.98? But they charged like i order the large which is 15.98 so i paid the larger acia bowl? Disappointing

    Seating!

    Cute place for a bowl on a hot day! There's a good amount of seating comfy seating for while you wait/eat. The two ladies at the cash register were super sweet and helpful in recommending me a bowl. Got the pineapple juice and lilikoi bowl - both super refreshing!

    $  10.plus avo "toast"
    Melinda M.

    1. Over priced, mediocre food in a city with lots and lots of amazing choices. 2. Weird vibe. One worker was hanging out on the couch. 3. Espresso served in a plastic cup. Not delicious and also Yuck. Avocado toast was on Costco bread,NOT toasted. Super pathetic presentation that matched the quality.

    Finding myself trying to kill some time I stumble up on this place. I wanted something savory and the panini sounded like something different so I went with that and a Hawaiian ginger lemonade. I would put the panini up there with one of the best ones I've had, the mushroom confit is just as good as any meat maybe better. The Hawaiian ginger lemonade has a good balance, not too much ginger where it's overwhelming. I don't know when I will ever end up back here again, but if I do I will definitely get another panini.

    Large Hawaiian Ginger Lemonade

    As soon as I walked in the door, the customer service was incredible! Very clean and fresh looking space. The perfect place for a fresh meal! I got the Avocado Toast and Hawaiian Ginger Lemonade. Definitely recommend!

    Congratulations your second location!!
    Irene M.

    Congratulations on your second location!! Woohoo what a great find on my stroll around downtown is ALO Cafe Hawaii in Bishop Square on it's second day of opening (soft opening on 9/13/23) I actually just missed today by just a few minutes as they're hours are 7am-2pm Monday to Fridays as I noticed a bunch of pink balloons and that familiar ALO in Waikiki I've visited a few times I asked if they moved only to hear it's their second location yay!!! It's a super cute and cozy cafe and the doors was wide open thinking I still could get some yummy smoothie only to be told everything was turned off was sad as they have the yummiest smoothies like Minty Hawaiian but I really was craving a refreshing açaí bowl hoping to get one of their Happy Bowls got me so excited only to be told I was too late made me sad. I will certainly happily be back to visit these ladies and if you go early they're able to validate the first 30 guests parking in the building which is $2 for the first 2 hours which is what's stated on their Instagram @alocafe_hawaii. Congratulations again and cheers times two! Thank you!

    Pineapple kale banana smoothie; sorry I drank most of it so quickly, oops
    Edie S.

    Got this yummy kale pineapple banana smoothie because I needed to use at least one of my hands to work and I also wanted something quick, and this was SO PERFECT. Delicious tasting; I'd totally get this again. I wish they had more food selections but maybe next time I'll try a wrap if I can spare two hands to eat with. Delicious and healthy; and right next to my office!

    minty hawaiian smoothie
    Lauren W.

    i had the minty hawaiian smoothie (pineapple, mint, and banana), although they were out of mint. nice and refreshing drink!

    Avocado Toast Matcha Latte

    I have tried 3 different locations hoping for a better time, but at two of them including this one (i liked the one in kaka'ako) the food & drink was not good or right. At this one, I order an iced matcha latte with oat milk (which costs extra for the oat milk) & got a matcha tea & then asked if it had oat milk in it hoping it'd be remade because I knew it didn't & she just put a splash of oat milk on top. ... not a matcha latte. (& this is coming from a barista myself) i then ordered the avo toast ... & it was just on bread. not toasted at all. next location by Waikiki did not make an iced latte with oat milk correctly. It just tasted like milk because she didn't put enough ice in it, so the ratio was very off. Also, did not have the most friendly or professional vibe.

    Curry
    Jeff A.

    Was drawn in because they had 30% off the curry and ramen. We got the coconut curry and two Fiesta Tacos. Both plates had good taste considering they were vegan. Everything tasted fresh. Portions were average to slightly above average size and I felt that prices were fair. The 30% off the curry definitely helped. I would return.

    So yummy!

    Is carrot cake vegan?

    Everything at ALO Cafe is vegan except that honey is added to some things, but if you don't want honey, simply let them know, and they'll leave it out.

My first time here I got the strawberry lychee, which was super good!! If you want a less sweet option the passion fruit mango has more of a tang/tartness. We got lucky the first time we came (on a Sunday morning), as there was no line. The second time we came there was a wait of about 10 people in front of us!! I'm told that's pretty normal for this shop. While waiting in line the sweet owner handed out samples of the strawberry blueberry smoothie--also amazing and a combination I probably wouldn't have ordered on my own. The strawberry guava and strawberry banana smoothies are also as you might guess SO good. 10/10 I will be coming back with my reusable jar soon!!

Parking is super easy with the complimentary structure, and the café is located on the bottom floor alongside other vendors. One thing I immediately appreciated was how well air-conditioned the entire market is--it's nice and cool, which makes sitting and eating there really comfortable. The cashier recommended the turkey pesto croissant, but suggested swapping it onto ciabatta since it's one of her favorites--and I'm so glad I trusted her. It was phenomenal. The flavors were balanced, the bread held everything together perfectly, and it felt like a step above your typical sandwich. I also had what looked like a simple salad, but the vinaigrette and candied pistachios really elevated it and made it feel more thoughtful than expected. The staff across the board were friendly and welcoming, and there's plenty of seating--whether inside the café or out in the open market area. Honestly, the value surprised me the most. I paid under $13 for everything, which is hard to beat for the quality. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to.

Seating is limited so it may be difficult to find seating especially during high traffic meal times. May have better luck finding seating outside. I've been here multiple times for lunch and had multiple different items. The acai bowl are good. I like getting the Nalu salad which is always a decent serving and tastes fresh. The sandwiches are also pretty tasty. My main issue is the service. I'm not sure if part of their training is to ignore the customer as much as possible because that has been my experience on multiple occasions. The most recent visit, I had ordered online and was going to pick up m food for takeout. There were three workers at the front just talking. I walked to the counter and was ignored. I could see where the orders are placed and didn't see anything there so figured my order wasn't ready yet. I stood on the side for at least 5 minutes without any greeting or acknowledgement. Not a single person made eye contact with me. When I saw an order placed on the back counter one of them grabbed it and placed it on the takeout counter without calling out the name and went back to chatting. I had to actively try to get their attention at which point I was looked at like I was bothering them. Asked if my order was ready and was handed it without any further interaction. I don't expect happy go lucky people and conversation but at least basic customer service.

(I used to frequent the Kahala location back before its Ku'ono Marketplace glow-up.) I'm usually an acai bowl loyalist at Lanikai Juice, so smoothie sampling was a first sip adventure. Location: Inside SALT at Our Kaka'ako, facing Ala Moana Blvd. Parking: Closest lot sits at the corner of Ala Moana Blvd and Coral St (entrance on Coral). You can also use the SALT lot on Keawe St, or play musical chairs with street parking. The Coral St lot is paid via QR code posted on signs - snap, register, and pay before you bounce. Atmosphere: Compact, but still has that classic Lanikai Juice feel. Seating is scarce, but we scored the seat jackpot with the window-facing bar (perfect for a trio). Drinks, snacks, and merch line the walls, while cup and bowl sizes are clearly displayed at the register - no guesswork needed. Drinks: I went with the Lanikai Splash, while my friend and her boyfriend ordered the... "I-don't-remember" smoothies. Mine hit the spot, and judging by their nods of approval, theirs did too. Service: Smooth, our drinks were blended and in hand within 5-10 minutes. Price: Roughly $30 total, generously covered by my friend's boyfriend. Would I return? Parched and passing by? Sure!

My fav was definitely the Hawaiian because it includes paʻiʻai, which I later learned is hand-pounded steamed taro. It had a slightly chewy, paste like texture that was really good and added something special to the bowl. I would easily recommend this spot to anyone visiting. I'd definitely come back the next time I'm in Hawaii. We didn't get a chance to try any of their other food or drinks though, so that's something I'd want to check out next time. There are quite a lot of seats inside, which makes it fairly easy to find a place to sit. They do have parking right in front of the shop, but the spaces are a little tight.
