    Poke- the only redeeming dish tonight
    Christopher M.

    This spot used to have amazing, high quality Hawaiian food- giving us respite from chain Hawaiian like Ono or L&L... Fast forward to today, Jul 2025- their food has gone downhill. Rice was dry and hard, kalua pork was undercooked, bbq beef was chewy and dry, and they give the tiniest little servings of haupia and poi. Oh they also forgot to include the lomi salmon in the Hawaiian plate. Mac Salad is flavorless. I didn't mind their pricing when the food was great but we won't be returning due to their decline in food quality. Their poke was fresh and delicious though. And the folks are very nice, shame their food is awful. Quality is now below ono or L&L.

    We came in first thing in the morning. Not busy at all. This place was huge, loved the decor as well as the different items available for purchase. I.E snacks, gifts from Hawaii. Was not impressed with the food. Mac salad was flavorless, the pork belly lacked flavor as well. Short ribs were decent.

    Great to have a place to get a plate lunch in Temecula and they even had mini size on the menu. The ambiance was better than any Hawaiian chain out here, making you feel a bit of home here in CA. We went at dinner time and it was empty, so hoping this place stays for the long haul, and we just went on an isolated slow night. I got chicken Katsu, with two scoops rice and Mac salad. Everything was ok considering it's a mainland restaurant. Being completely transparent, I felt the Mac salad was a bit bland and a bit harder texture than it should have been. I want this place to do well, so I gave it 5, but if you read this far, maybe they will improve the Mac salad and Katsu breading. Looking forward to going back and trying the Teri Beef!

    My one & only go to for my BBQ mix plate! Not only do they sell food, they have iced coffees (in which I had in the last), snacks and merch! Sometimes they hold local little markets in here too and have music performances! I ALWAYS get the Mix Bbq mix plate! The macaroni salad, 2 scoops of rice with beef teriyaki, bbq ribs and teriyaki chicken- all the flavors marry each other! My husband got the katsu plate along with the mac salad and rice. We got fhe spam fries for my kids! The spam fries were my first time trying and the dressing on top delish! My kids can't handle the spice from the Sriracha mayo but to me it was fine! The chopped spam pieces were great! Btw they give military discount, big +! Service is great as always every-time I come here. Very nice & patient. Checking in on us and how the food is.

    With a name like Da Coconut Cafe we expect a certain level of quality, and Da Coconut Cafe delivers! When you walk in you are greeted by a large and well decorated dining room, plus Hawaiian goods and snacks for purchase! Our cashier went above and beyond in service, helpfulness, and human kindness. We were offered samples of butter mochi, a new potential menu item. How wonderful! We were also informed of a few ordering ideas for next time ;) The food was delicious. Creamy mac salad, delicious teriyaki chicken, and a spam musubi with the proper proportions of spam, seaweed, rice, and sauce! My vegetarian lady was able to have the vegan jackfruit plate and enjoyed the juicy saucy fruits. Come here for a wonderful time and wonderful memories!

    The place is very big and clean, great for family or big groups. Fast service and yummy food. The chicken katsu was crunchy outside and soft inside. The grilled salmon was done nicely, moist and not overcooked. Would come back to try other dishes.

    Being married to a local from Wahiawa, it's hard to make dinner that he likes. To cheat, I like to grab his favorite Hawaiian dishes. Must haves include teriyaki beef and short ribs. To Die FOR!!! Not too salty or saucy. Chicken wings were perfectly crispy and sweet. Perfect appetizers along with some spam musubi. Make sure to get it with a drizzle of their sauce and furikake. For desert, we got the malasadas. Another must try! Perfectly crispy edge and soft sweet bread like yumminess! They offer a 10% military discount, too :)

    Decided to try breakfast today, we ordered the breakfast combo $12.95 which states on the board that it comes with spam AND Portuguese sausage, the cashier asked us to pick one meat. That was actually the Island combo for $10.95. After reiterating a couple times that the board says BOTH, she insisted we just choose just one. So we were charged for the breakfast combo, but given the island combo instead. The food took over 20 minutes just for rice, eggs and Portuguese sausage when we were the only ones in the whole restaurant. Service was definitely friendlier today, but food was still a let down, especially for the prices.

    Met up partway between San Diego and LA to see some relatives. We were all so hungry, and were in search of good food (after being turned away by another spot). It was fate that we found ourselves at Da Coconut Cafe! We were so hungry, and we ordered so much (except the roast pork/lechon because they were out of pork). After placing our order, we sat down, but only after going back to look at all the merch for sale. The food came out pretty quickly. Portions were generous, especially at such reasonable prices. Everything came in plastic clamshell containers with disposable utensils. This way, if you don't finish your food, you can take it with you and eat it later. The interior is clean, spacious, and welcoming. There are even 2 rooms for private events available. The staff provided excellent service with warm and friendly attitude. Restrooms are located at the rear of the restaurant . The women's room has 2 stalls; one regular and one handicap accessible with plenty of room to maneuver for a transfer. If there was any recommendation , see if you can make it so the door doesn't stick or maybe lighten the tension because it was hard for me to open the door while using my walker. We're definitely adding this spot to our rotation for the next time we are in town/passing through and have a craving for ono grindz.

    The best Hawaiian food in town created by a very friendly staff. It's a bit of a hidden gem set of the main street, but worth it, to find.

    Hands down, this is the best restaurant in town!…read more Since moving here, we've really missed San Diego's food scene--but last weekend, my wife and I visited 1909 for the first time, and we found that 1909 rivals many of our favorite places in San Diego. We started with a "Dirty" Vodka Martini for me and a Mac's Mule for her. Then, we ordered the Caesar Brussel Sprouts, the 1909 Burger, the Cilantro Lime Fish Tacos, and a couple more cocktails along the way. Everything was absolutely delicious! What really stood out, though, was the service. The entire staff treated us like we were longtime regulars--friendly, attentive, and welcoming without being overbearing. The ambiance was cozy and inviting, and reminded us of some of our favorite places back in San Diego. If you're looking for great food, excellent drinks, and an atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile, this is the place. We'll definitely be going back!

Would definitely come back to try more of the drinks and menu. The 1909 bloody mary was 10/10. One of the best Bloody Mary's I've ever had. Seriously was amazing - spicy, flavorful, everything you want Eggs your way - standard 2 poached eggs, toast bacon and potatoes. Potatoes were super undercooked but the poached egg was perfect. Bacon was also a lil undercooked. Cranberry white cheddar salad was banging I must say. I added shrimp and it was suuuuper good.
