    The food was good. I had the lemon dill smoked salmon begal ($13.75). It was delicious. The salmon is in the cream cheese. The onions and arugula was fresh. I loved the lemon dressing they added to it. You get two pieces. It's fulfilling. I also had the iced honey macadamia latte ($6.50). It was good. I wish it had more of a nutty flavor but it was sweet. The service was friendly and quick. Even though they were busy I got my food quickly. I love the ambience of this place. A lot of locals were here eating. It's cute and cozy. FYI there's no bathroom in this business but they will give you a key to access one.

    Located in Kapaa kauai. It's simple light food and the were one of the only places open on a Sunday, so come early, as it gets busy. The menu was a little limited. The avocado toast was great! We also got the bagel, and no complaints. There were only about 7 or 8 tables. Don't come with large parties of more than 4. Enjoyed the experience.

    Stopped in for a quick breakfast and coffee. The space itself is really cute -- cozy and inviting, with a nice local feel. Unfortunately, the coffee was a letdown -- very watered down and lacking flavor. The food was okay, nothing special but not bad either, good size portions. Overall, it's a nice spot to sit for a bit, but with so many other coffee options around, I probably wouldn't come back.

    One of the best avocado toasts I have EVER HAD. Cool vibe, great atmosphere, and the owner Misha is SO COOL! 10/10 recommend to anyone looking for breakfast or lunch.

    This is a little gem in the heart of Kapa'a. You can't go wrong with any of their food. We got the deluxe avocado toast and the breakfast wrap with bacon and it was amazeballs. The place is small but cute, and the service is fast. I really enjoyed my coffee though, my oat milk latte definitely surpassed Starbucks for sure I hope you get a chance to support this amazing local Buisness!'

    Loaded avocado toast with bacon

    The loaded avocado toast with bacon is by far the best meal I've had here on Kauai! AND the arugula on the side was so fresh and yummy! My husband loved the breakfast wrap also. Well done!!!

    Phenomenal cafe! We came here twice during our stay and loved it both times - the coffee, the food, everything was consistently great. The staff was also the sweetest we encountered on the island. Highly recommend stopping by!

    Teddy bear latte and Avacado toast loaded were delicious. I wish they offered bigger sizes for drinks. Place is clean and service was fast.

    Waited for an hour for a simple breakfast wrap. Others that came in after us were served the same food first. Terrible service.

    Took a trip to Kauai and based on what I've heard, trying the oxtail soup and banana mac nut…read morepancakes was a must! And my goodness was it the best pancakes I've ever had. It's light, fresh, but packed with soo much flavor that exploded in my mouth! I couldnt get enough of it!!! At first my friend and I were debating whether or not to add macadamia nut inside d/t the extra cost, but boy is it worth it! The oxtail soup was really good too. Especially how easily the meat fell off the bone and the flavor that warmed the heart and soul. By far my favorite food stop in Kauai. And I'd come back to visit just for their food! Service was efficient and fast and at the end they give u a receipt to which u then go up front to pay. Ambiance is like an old school dinner that's frequently packed with locals and guests 5 stars!!

    As someone who's never been to Kauai, I'll say the one spot/food that was repeatedly recommended by…read morelocals was tip top's oxtail soup. Like brah, it kept coming up whenever anyone would list their favorites. So you know your boy had to check em out. The setting is def unique hahaha. It's a lil restaurant on the first floor of a motel? Also, check their hours and days bc they're at least closed on mondays and I think close at like 130 every day. Now what you see is their half-size portion of oxtail. I think I paid $25-30 after tax and tip. Something like that. But brah, even after a sunrise hike, my big back struggled to finish allll that. The taste was definitely solid. I will say I've had better oxtail soup in Oahu, even from Liliha. BUT no complaints, I'm glad I tried out tip top's! It was obviously a local favorite as the entire place was packed with straight up locals--don't think I saw one tourist in there.
