I saw this place on the food network channel and the moment I saw the pancakes they served , I was hooked! Finally got the chance to go when I visited Hawaii and I got the spinach bacon & cheese omellette, it comes with a side of 3 pancakes. The omelette was very big and very good. The Pancakes were perfectly fluffy and filling. I will definetly come back for those Banana Mac nut pancakes! The only Con is the" shoulder to shoulder "seating arrangements. Other than that I would recommend coming here. read more

Not a bad food place but they conduct extremely horrific service. They turned away a pregnant woman who needed to use the bathroom real quick and plus we go here regularly but we will never go here ever again. read more

Food was ok, but it is mostly pre made stuff. Pancakes are good and the fruit seemed fresh, but the service was absolutely horrendous. I paid $3 for a single tiny cup of coffee because the waitress never checked to refill my cup. I won't return because if the service. read more

Went to Eggs 'n Things for my first time on Saturday night for a late (like 10 pm) dinner with a friend. There was plenty of parking available and no wait for a table. Our server, Eddie, was very energetic and helpful when taking our orders. I ordered the fresh lemon crepes and my friend ordered the crab cake benedict. We wanted to try one of their pancakes as well, so we initially ordered the chocolate chip pancakes until Eddie pointed out that a full order was a stack of five pancakes- waaaaaaay too much for the both of us at that hour. Instead, Eddie upgraded my friend's crab cake benedict side (rice, hash or pancakes) to be a chocolate pancakes (a side is three cakes rather than five), rather than the hash he originally ordered, and made the hash a side order which helped us save money and our stomachs. The food came out quickly and everything tasted good. We never felt rushed to leave, and the ambiance inside was warm and cheerful. Now, why four stars and not five with such a good experience? Firstly, it took the staff forever to refill our waters. The basic rule of thumb in a restaurant is once a cup goes half empty, it should be refilled. Eddie was busy managing most of the tables while two workers just stood around chatting. It wasn't until a fourth person, who was clearing tables, noticed the empty glasses that we got refills on our waters. Secondly, the crab cake benedict was a misnomer; it should have been called imitation crab benedict or a seafood benedict: I saw no real crab meat in my friend's "crab" benedict. Finally, while the pancakes tasted amazing (crisp outside and fluffy inside) the chocolate chips were concentrated in the center of the pancakes. This lead to some bites having no chocolate chips whatsoever while others burst with chocolate. All in all, I would definitely go again for a late night (or odd hour) run, but probably not when they are packed full for breakfast or brunch. read more

Everything is nicely done. Omelets, decor, service, etc. I'd definitely go again. Very creative ingredients in the omelets. The pancakes were good, but not on the par with that of The Original Pancake House but I guess that is to be expected. read more

This is my second time here. First time I'm writing a review. The food was ok. I ordered a corn beef hash and eggs with some potatoes. My gf had the crepes. The crepes were really good and a large portion. My corn beef hash tasted like the can corn beef hash. The potatoes needed some sort of seasoning. It was very bland. On top of that, the water tasted a little like chlorine. Overall experience, I gave a 3 star because the crepes was really good and the service was just as good. read more

MAC NUT PANCAKES!!! Yeah, it might not be Boots & Kimo's and it relies heavily on whipped cream, but it's still pretty damn good especially with the guava syrup! read more

Pancakes were fluffier than the Original Pancake! Try the three different syrups! My favorite is the coconut syrup even though I normally don't like coconut. The food was prepared quickly and the staff was helpful and nice. I couldn't decide what to get because there were so many dishes that sounded great! read more

Good food. Come with a appetite for sure big servings. Friendly wait staff. The menu has something for everyone.

I've never had a bad experience here thus far. The atmosphere is very reminiscent of a local-style diner, but the food definitely doesn't fall under the typical diner category (i.e., greasy, too much salt, etc). The ingredients are fresh, and I'm a huge fan of their veggie omelette. The portion sizes are also great, and I've always had leftovers to munch on later. Plus, they offer a kamaaina discount--gotta love them perks! read more

Worst customer service ever! The manager was rude!!! I actually walked out and drove to The Original Pancake house just minutes away... Much better service! Much better food!!!! And the Manager made you feel welcomed rather than reprimanded!!!! Wouldn't even give this place one star for the horrible treatment I got~ but you're forced to give a star on Yelp. Tip: not worth the wait or the harassment by the cranky manager!!! Go somewhere else! read more

Great service from seating to paying the check! Food was good but pricey for the quantity of food provided. Still doing good business, with some locals, the rest being tourist. Parking is still limited but was lucky to find a stall upon entry to the lot. read more

Our go-to for breakfast because it's so convenient for us. The kids love their pancakes and French toast and the coconut syrup is my wife's favorite. I had the Portuguese sausage, eggs and rice this morning - can't ever go wrong there. Usually have to get here early or there's a line ... A favorite for Japanese tourists. read more

Idk why this place has 3 stars. I mean I know you can never make everyone happy but in my case I lovedddd this place! I ordered and decided to change my order last minute and they didn't have a problem doing it, I ordered the Kalbi and eggs instead and the taste was great! The workers are amazing!!!! Our server Nick was on top of everything and he was extremely nice, friendly and respectful! Definitely recommend this place. read more

This Ala Moana location's customer service sucks! After they serve your food, no one ever comes back around to check if you need refills on water, coffee, soda, etc. They walk around just for show but does not pay attention to what's needed. read more

Excellent place for breakfast and all day. Had the sliced ham and it was awesome. Will be back during this teip.

Love this place! Always will be our go to local breakfast place. Weekends though will always be the longest wait time, even though this is the Piikoi location. We probably waited over an hour just to get a table for two. Can't imagine the wait times at the Waikiki location. Ordered the pancakes, adobo fried rice, and Hawaiian loco moco. Portions were pretty big too I couldn't eat it all and took the rest home for later. Overall, would recommend! read more

This place is soooo good! Came here after having to leave IHOP because we sat there for over ten minutes without even having our drink order taken and i wish we would have just come here in the first place! The food is really well priced and delicious! Not to mention the service was great! My fiancé and i are on our honeymoon and this was definitely the best breakfast we've had! read more

We saw a photo of the steak and eggs in the mall and thought yum let's give it a go. We weren't disappointed a 10 minute wait or so and off to the races. We had the ENT loco moco which was AMAZING! I never finish my good but pretty much did this one in! The kalua omelette was pretty good and comes with either potatoes or pancakes both of which are delicious. The iced cappuccino was also super yummy. Our server was super nice, friendly and we definitely would go back next time here! read more

FINALLY! A good breakfast spot in town. There really aren't many! I heard Eggs 'n Things was opening in the old I Love Country Cafe spot near Ala Moana, and was lucky enough to be in the area today for their soft opening. The decor is simple, clean and comfortable. There was plenty of wait help, and they were all very pleasant. Our waiter, Joshua, was the best! Very knowledgeable and efficient. He had a great sense of humor and seemed to really enjoy himself. My friend had the crab eggs benedict, which she said was excellent. I sampled the crab cake, and it was pretty tasty. I had the chocolate chip pancakes and corned beef hash, both were excellent! My only complaint was that it was kinda pricey. I did appreciate the 10% kama'aina discount, though. Nice to have "breakfast" at 6pm! read more

BEST fried rice!! It's a huge portion loaded with bacon, ham, portuguese sausage, kamaboku, carrots, celery (not too much), and green onions. Plus two eggs any way you like. Lawrence was an excellent server -- knowledgeable and cordial. There was no wait; then again, we went on a Monday night at 6:00pm. read more

We had breakfast at Eggs 'n Things last week and was pleasantly surprised. The Rib eye was one of the best I have tried! We ordered an extra plate to share because everything is cooked to perfection. The service can be busy and sometimes you may have to wait once you are seated (for extended periods), but all that doesn't matter when your eating your meal. Real good cooking. read more

My mother and I eat egg benedicts every other weekend at different locations. We have tried to come to this one before, however, the wait was over an hour. This Sunday we planned strategically and came around 1 pm. the wait was only 10 minutes. The hostess, Lieve, and our server, Ann were just super. I ordered crab egg benedicts, my maddah - regular. I enjoyed it a lot. I ate only one of my eggs and a half of a muffin and asked for a take out. Ann was funny when, with a serious face, she told me I couldn't go till my plate is clean. I promised to lick it clean, which I did. The benedict sauce was good! The good: 1. I liked the crab version of the dish. 2. my order was big enough for me to have a take out, which I shared with my mother-in-law. 3. they give a kamaaina discount and will remind you to claim it! The not so good: 1. you have to plan when to come, otherwise, you will spend more time waiting than eating. 2. parking is tight, like everywhere in Hawaii. What makes it worse are hungry drivers, who would go for an open spot two cars at a time. 3. the restaurant is loud. if you are planning to have a relaxing conversation, well.... a conversation maybe... I guess do not come during busy hours. I had to repeat things to my elderly mother, her hearing is not so good on a good day, but in a noisy environment - at least I didn't have to scream some embarassing news to her over the crowd. But it took a good 15 minutes to figure out a simple trip schedule. It was noisy. they are open late on many nights, so I am thinking of coming here when all tourists and crazy drivers are home sleeping and enjoy it in a less noisy environment. I hope I still get Lieve and Ann. read more

I didn't order a lot but the items I did get was super. The Hawaiian Loco moco and pineapple waffle with nuts was delicious. The kalbi with the upgraded pancakes was awesome. 4 star only because of the price. The upgraded pancakes, which we paid 5 bucks more, came with 3 pancakes. So for about 20 bucks I got 3 pancakes and kalbi beef. For 12 bucks I got 1 waffle! 5 star for food and 2 star for price. 3.5 star average but I rounded up :-D note: if pancakes and waffle is what you want, you can pretty much get the same thing at Denny's or IHOP. The stars are more for the loco moco and kalbi. read more

Food was good, as was the service. We got there about 9am on a Sunday and had to wait about 15 minutes, which wasn't too bad. Orange juice glass was huge (in Massachusetts glasses are always tiny). My husband got the chocolate chip pancakes and the waiter warned him they are very, very chocolatey unless otherwise requested, so my husband asked for light choc. chips and they were still pretty chocolatey--good, but he was glad they were "light". I had the banana macadamia pancakes which were delicious. I originally asked for light on the whipped cream (I'd seen the pictures and knew they put a lot on) and the waiter looked like I hurt his feelings, so I took it back (and just didn't eat all of it). read more

Had the traditional Loco Moco and Banana Pancakes. The burger was cooked perfect with a great grilled flavor and the gravy was winnahs. But very disappointed that we couldn't substitute with fried rice not to mention there's no side order or smaller portion of fried rice and I really wanted to try the fried rice but didn't was a huge portion. The Banana Pancakes had a lot of bananas and great tasting. The portion on the Loco Moco was okay for me but if I brought my keikis they would have been disappointed, and still hungry; however, the portion was huge on the pancakes. Our server was awesome. read more

Amazing food! Wait wasn't too bad for being a Sunday ,definitely a place to visit while here!

breakfast at dinner is always good. Ordered steak and eggs. My spouse got the omelette special. Sunday is kids eat free so we got entrees from the keiki menu. With Ala Moana mall next door parking is easy. The food was great and the service was great as well. read more

We showed up during an off time, so no complaints about a long line. Everything we ordered was really good. The wait staff was friendly and helpful. read more

We always try to make this one of our breakfast stops in Oahu. The pancakes and syrups are delicious!

This place is very over priced and the servers are rude from the waiter arranging seats to the cashier taking to go orders. Stood for 30 minutes with no indication if my order was complete yet the entire time my order was still next to the cashier. My order wasnt order after waiting 30 minutes. If i didnt ask the status then i would have asked then I would have known and no was tracking the meals. Their service is very slow and everyone is treated like tourist as if you can't read. I don't recommend this place to anyone that appreciate a sit down meal with family or friends. read more

My girlfriend and I went for breakfast there and the food was amazing! The customer service was great as well! The waiter accidentally brought me the wrong plate but everyone makes mistakes. Would absolutely love to go there again! read more

Food was super ono! Did not think it would make me full because it wasnt a huge plate, but it was very filling. Customer service was good, we had a very nice server. Only downside was we got seated on the same table as another couple. It was kind of awkward and you could tell we all wanted some space. I know it was probably just to seat us quickly, which is nice, but I would have rather waited to have some privacy. Overall, the place has really good food and decent service. read more

I really enjoyed my special omelet (turkey bacon, spinach, onions and cheddar cheese)- would totally get it again! The potatoes were a bit soggy though. My friend had an omelet with pepper jack cheese- which was definitely runny and subpar. An overall good time, good service, but the food was only ok! read more

First, I must say we have only tried a couple of items on the menu. But we go back every Sunday to get the crab cake benedict breakfast. We usually go before 8am so the line doesn't ever get long. I could see how the wait could get long if you showed up during the breakfast rush. read more

After years of hearing about E&T I finally had a chance to go there. We are back to this enduring problem in Hawaii and the review before this one aptly sums it up: "A very popular tourist attraction." Sadly, BEING POPULAR DOES NOT MEAN IT"S GOOD! Lucky for E&T, 99% of the tourist will not return. Unequivocally, the most disgusting breakfast and pancakes I have ever eaten anywhere. Pancakes smothered in canned, tasteless, blueberries with artificially sweetened, goopy sauce, added cold. Pancake mix I am sure is low quality flour (probably all purpose). And hardly anything fresh. In fact, I ordered butter and got margarine. BREAKFAST IS SUCH A SIMPLE THING. SIMPLE INGREDIENTS. HOW CAN SOMEONE MESS UP SOMETHING SO SIMPLE. Please, please study their menu. Prices and combinations of what they offer are designed to 'RIP OFF' Japanese tourist and locals. Look at the Omelettes for example, you can't build a three egg omelette and add what you want as a customer which is a classic way to eat breakfast in America. The combinations are decide for you are priced haphazardly. Prices for breakfast $27 per person?????? Pancakes $8-13???? Menu item: NO KA OI SET A ($27.00) Includes a breakfast platter of Island Portuguese sausage slices, 2 Island fresh eggs & steamed rice along with an order of our special Whipped Pancake Sampler. (1 Strawberry, 1 Banana & 1 Blueberry pancake topped with whipped cream and Macadamia Nuts) 1) Portugese Sausage 2) 2 Eggs 3) Rice 4) 3 Pancakes $27.00 (Highway Robbery) Next time you see a Japanese tourist family sitting there with their kids eating 10 pounds of horrible pancakes with a pound of canned fruit that is proportioned to where 3-4 people could share one order, let the management know that they are taking advantage of these tourist. You can't get real butter or real Maple syrup. For those prices??????? Margarine and artificial syrup. Look at the image of the omelette posted here with what looks like potatoes with corned beef hash? The salsa is from a can. The omelette was made on the griddle, not in a proper omelette pan with ingredients added at the proper time and fluffed. This actually takes some skill or at the least some care and pride to what you are doing. And the corned beef looks suspiciously from a can and mixed with potatoes. Potatoes are just diced and fried and then some salty seasoning added. You could train a Monkey to cook like this. Sadly, it's just dumbing down the food. I spoke with the manager after my meal, which I did not pay for the pancakes because they were inedible. It's embarrassing and inappropriate that we allow a business like this to operate in our state that fleeces tourist with such awful food and roadside robbery prices. You have replied: "I would be careful about passing judgement about restaurant policies without understanding why there are there in the first place." In answer to your remarks about passing judgement and understanding your policies: They are there in the first place because you are in business to make a profit. And in the process you have dumbed down your ingredients to the absolute lowest quality that you can get away with, and the highest prices you can get away with and as a customer I was shocked to see just how awful the food is; even knowing that the cost of doing business in Hawaii is higher, your prices just don't justify the the quality of your food. Price, quality, quantity? Zero value. Imaging if you made things from scratch, for example ( http://santafeplazacafe.com/menu/breakfast/ ) and offered a 'build your own omelette? Or try this ( https://www.labreabakery.com/cafe/1/la-brea-avenue-cafe ). Everything made from scratch and a concern for ingredients that respects the customer like their own family. Perhaps that is wishing too much, but you could with a little imagination and for nothing but pride in wanting to make the best possible product, with a little tweaking, sourcing better products, training, actually making things from scratch, could have yourself an amazing restaurant. read more

Very disappointed. It's cheap food. Never come again. I had to go to another restaurant for a second breakfast in same morning.

Our fave place for breakfast hands down. The food was consistent every time we went. We moved to Hawaii 2 years ago, our biggest concern is always a breakfast place for the weekend. We tried Eggs 'n Things and we were hooked. Over the weekend, it gets packed in the morning. The wait time came be up to 25 minutes. Remember to put everything in Hawaiian perspective. I keep reading reviews of tourist expecting a lot from Hawaii. The reality is different. I'm going off topic. All YOU need to know is food is good, consistent and customer service is good. If you sign up for 5 stars, you earn a point per visit. Hey, we visited the place 20 times and earn the $25 gift card. I recommend the island style fried rice and eggs, a local favorite. There's daily specials to choose from. My husband's all time favorite was the Kalbi beef and eggs. It won't disappoint. He misses it since we moved back to the mainland. Enjoy your breakfast all day everyday! Aloha and Mahalo! read more

This place was so delicious!!! I had the crab cakes Benedict and banana whipped cream waffle. It was great! The food AND I had a great service/waiter (sorry I forgot his name). The prices were decent to the portion size and I am used to having breakfast at IHOP but this will be my new favorite place for brunch! I did not give it a full star because even though the waffles were great, they put too much whipped cream on top of it. It looks pretty but it was too sweet for me. And I wish their tea cups were a little bit bigger as I like to drink tea so much but always run out of water fast. My first time I ordered a hot coco and it came in their usual small cup. And you know the hot coco packet went all in that cup making it sweeter than I wanted it. Well, aside from this, I had a great experience that it made me want to come back again for dinner and the next day!!!! Oh and this makes me excited to bring my family here!!! read more

Eggs 'n Things Ala Moana - Crab cakes egg benedict - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Arrived at 730a and the place was empty. Asked to be seated for a party of 2. The host asked if my guest was here and I replied not yet. I said I'd like to be seated and drink coffee while I waited. He would not seat me unless both of us were there. Went back & asked again to be seated for 1, as there were no single tables. I was then given a table for 2 and the 2nd set of utensils were removed from the table. The server was not friendly (Joanne) and the coffee was warm at best. Food was decent, but the ambiance & rude host made it junk! Cost went up, breakfast for 2 was $30, no tip! Will not patronize this place ever again! There are better places to spend my$$... read more
