This tastes like a combination between a curry and a breakfast burrito. The spices make it warming and flavorful while the butternut squash and coconut add creaminess and sweetness. The portion is generous and can be shared between 1-2 people. - vegetable curry bowl (8/10): carrot, cauliflower, and peas in a Tamil curry with a side of rice. This is a hearty and comforting meal. The flavors are similar to the butternut squash curry but this one is slightly less sweet. I personally liked the butternut squash one better but both are very tasty. - vegan crepe (8/10): buckwheat crepe filled with a lentil and tomato stew with sides of salad and hummus. This was a unique take on a crepe as I have not seen other places fill theirs with a stew. While it was a little hard to split, it was a generous portion for one person. The salad adds a pop of freshness and the hummus allows for a creamy relief from the spices. WOULD I GO BACK? Yes! This is one of our favorite go to spots on the island.

Daughter ordered the Mediterranean crepe which came with vegetables, feta cheese and pesto ($20.50). Unfortunately, it was so salty she couldn't finish it. I got the kalua pork with goat cheese crepe ($20.50) which was delicious. The combination of the habanero salsa offset the creaminess of the goat cheese. Our server, a young man, provided standoffish service and seemed only happy once he presented us the bill with the button to choose a tip option. Otherwise, he wasn't very available. Not sure if I'd go back given other options in the area.

We opted for a savory French veggie crepe with mushrooms, red & yellow peppers, spinach, onion all sautéed to perfection with mozzarella cheese.

The food truck lot has grown a lot recently, expanding into the adjacent lot with more space for trucks and more better parking (huge win). They have a cute little setup with a covered area for eating, plenty of tables, and even events happening from time to time. I think you can rent the space out too if you're planning your own event. Some of my favorite trucks here are Da Soriano Grindz for their calamansi pork belly plate (seriously hits every time), Aloha Pho Maui when I'm in the mood for Vietnamese, and Street Market Boba--because no visit is complete without a dessert and a good boba fix. I love that you can come with friends or family, and everyone can find something totally different to enjoy. From Filipino to Vietnamese to Mexican and more, the variety makes it an easy pick. Whether you're just grabbing lunch or hanging out for a bit, Da Tambayan is definitely worth checking out.

I walked in and was completely ignored though there were two people behind the counter and only one person in line ahead of me. I waited patiently, feeling like this was a test. Locals know you go slow and be patient and you get good service. Aloha only. As friendly as I could possibly be, I asked for drip coffee of which there was only the dregs left in the pot, but enough to fill my cup. I was okay with that and paid, about $4.20 before tip... then found my cup (16oz) was only half full. I said thank you cheerfully and left, thinking they'll just pour the rest of that pot down the drain. The food looks good if a little expensive, but I'll never go back there. There's other places where the service can really suck but the food is ono and the price is good, like L&L. You can get a meal there for less than $10. I can deal with poor service, but poor service and high prices... nah bro.

They are busy and everything is made to order so be patient if you come at the lunch hour.

Located just a few doors down just past Lady Elaine's, Le Crepe Cafe looked like just what I wanted. After surveilling the menu I opted for a savory meaty treat in "the Warrior" crepe. What a nice snd substantial brunch crepe it was, filled with chicken, turkey, turkey bacon, tomatoes, mushrooms, spinach, red onions, and cheese, and your choice of sauces. I opted for the pesto and garlic aioli. So substantial that I enjoyed it over the course of the next four hours. Unfortunately soon after needing a nap. Buwahah. The sweet crepes sounded equally delicious but one was more than too much. Service was friendly and efficient. Got my order before I was finished taking photos. And I appreciate the recommendations from kind counter person. Will return to share a sweet treat or for happy hour or a lunch special hopefully sooner than later. So much goodness here!

The ambiance is fun and inviting, the staff is friendly and helpful ...even giving me recommendations based on what I was looking for. The young woman who helped me came out to tell me that the avocados they had that day (for the veggie omelette) weren't good enough to serve, she offered me more of any other vegetables they had. I appreciated the integrity and care not to let a customer eat subpar avocados! There is seating inside and outside(covered) and the friendly staff delivers your food to the table. My only personal critique is that the food is served in to go containers and plastic utensils are given. If I'm eating AT a restaurant, I prefer plates and non-plastic utensils. HOWEVER, this is a personal preference and it did not take away from the flavor of the food one bit. I'm looking forward to returning!

The awning above will say Waikiki Tea. It's immediately after an open parking lot if you're walking or driving down the one way street. I'm not sure if you can park in there or not but I found loading zone parking so I parked there and walked over. When you enter, you'll see some indoor seating, the coffee prep area and a display case of some of their cakes. It's a cozy spot but clean and white. My most recent visit was to pick up a birthday cake for a friend. He's been talking about it so I figured it would be something nice to surprise him with. Hopefully he enjoys the surprise and is able to share the cake with all his loved ones. Due to the holidays, Lady M is busy and sells out so preordering is best. I was just extremely lucky they had a Signature cake available the day I called. The person on the phone took down my info and asked what time I was going to pick up the cake then put it on the side for me. Unfortunately, they don't hand write Happy Birthday on the cake but they did provide me a complimentary Happy Birthday cake topper which was nice. Overall great cake option for any occasion.

You will also see a wide selection of Royce Chocolates display on the right side of the wall and in front of you the glass display of the world's famous Mille Crêpes. Kevin helped us decide on our black box Royce Chocolates. It's a little pricey but the black quality of the chocolate is divinely melt in your mouth full of rich, creamy goodness and delicious chocolate!!! Royce' is famous for the Nama chocolates all the way from Japan. But guess what?! You don't need to fly to Japan to get your hands on them! Just drive yourself to Beach Walk in Waikiki and I guarantee you'll thank me for it!! Yup, you will! ;) We also picked up a few flavors of the Lady M Mille Crêpes. We got Amedei Chocolate, Pistachio, Chestnut and Tiramisu. Each layers of the cake is made with perfection!!! I paired mine with an ice caramel macchiato. It would probably taste better with a hot caramel macchiato but it was a little sunny so I opted for the ice drink. The coffee is also sooo good!!! It almost remind me of the coffee I had in France! I thought I'd never find a better caramel macchiato here in Honolulu than Starbucks! I was completely wrong! Kevin, thank you so much for making my first visit so memorable! You were kind with a friendly smile and lots of aloha!!! Come visit Lady M! Whether you come in for their world's famous Mille Crêpes, Royce' chocolates or meet Kevin, I know you'll love this place!
