    Fried Chicken
    Dallas S.

    Gueib Cafe is definitely worth checking out if you are looking for a solid local breakfast spot. It is an intimate restaurant so I would recommend coming early or between the breakfast and lunch rush if you want to avoid waiting, although they do offer takeout. We only waited a couple of minutes for a table and our food came out in about 15 minutes. Every employee we interacted with from our server to the bussers were friendly and welcoming. The ribeye loco moco was the highlight (they were out of the prime rib). They give you a FULL SIZED ribeye (maybe 10oz?) instead of a small piece of steak like how they do with a hamburger patty or two, which was a pleasant surprise. I ordered mine medium, but it unfortunately came out very well done. Thankfully, the rich gravy, perfectly cooked eggs, and the $3 pork adobo fried rice upgrade more than made up for it. That fried rice alone is worth ordering. We also shared the chicken and waffles, and the fried chicken was seasoned really well with a great crunch without being overly breaded. My only "complaint" other than the steak temp was that it came with honey but no syrup. I understand the choice, but I wish they at least offered syrup on the side (granted I didn't ask for any). Our bill for the ribeye loco moco and chicken and waffles was around $55, which felt fair for Hawaii especially when you get an entire ribeye. I will definitely be back to try the prime rib loco moco!

    Service was good and we didn't have to wait for a table which was a bonus! My adobo fried rice was really good and my grandson had us eat in so he could have his flight.

    When we got there wasn't expecting it to be busy which was good, but place feels cramped so we ordered take out. I'd suggest ordering ahead of time. I ordered the Adobe fried rice omelet 16$ with an add on of lechon kawali 3$. We were told that they can bring our order outside so we waited about 20minutes or so and we received our food. At first glance food looked amazing, ok portion size, when I ate the Adobe fried rice it was noticeably salty. The lechon kawali was very good though. Overall it was just ok for me.

    Been a while since we've return but wanted the Ube Pancake-craving for it and it's the only restaurant that has the best; everything else is just a copycat. I'm surprised the place has new furniture that accommodates larger group-perfect for families. The people are so locally friendly and has that Aloha spirit. Highly recommended!!! Just make sure when you do come, come not so hungry coz it's so popular that the wait is a bit longer but worth it.

    Been curious about this place since it opened and today I finally got to try their breakfast. They are located right at the entrance of the shops behind Cutter Ford. It was early around 8:00am, and parking was kinda full already. There's lots of stalls so you shouldn't have a hard time finding parking. The restaurant is in a small space and it was full. Maybe 6 tables total and 4 counter seats. We signed in and waited outside for a table. After a short 10-15 minute wait, our table was ready. They have a wide variety of breakfast items, local and Filipino dishes. I went with the traditional eggs Benedict and my daughter got the Portuguese sausage, waffles and eggs over easy. The best part of our breakfast was the adorable young male server. I didn't catch his name, but he was very genuine and kept checking on us. He definitely tried his best to be a great server. My Eggs Benedict was ok. Usually it has Canadian bacon, but theirs are 'ham' slices you use for sandwiches, like the cold cut kind. Kinda disappointing but it tasted good. The poached eggs were done perfectly and it tasted good. I got it with arugula salad and there were a few pieces which were old and discolored. I just put them on the side.1 My daughter said her waffles were ok and her Portuguese sausage and over easy eggs were good.

    Came for brunch and they did not disappoint! Kept it savory with the classic Filipino breakfast: perfectly crispy Bangus (milkfish) paired with an adobo rice omelet. For the sweet side, you already know we had to get the Ube Waffle. They come topped with a rich ube mascarpone, fresh berries, and a beautiful orchid. If you love ube, this is incredibly ube-forward but hits with just the right amount of sweetness without being overpowering. Definitely adding this spot to the regular rotation!

    Food is AMAZING. Good service. Great prices. Be sure to get there early as this place is popular

    First stop on the island was pretty spot on service and food. The ube French toast and adobo omelette with spam was ALOHA. It's a small establishment so you have to wait outside til they call you. I would return for more good eats.

    Poi Mochi Waffle
    Keri N.

    Everything was solid. Very friendly staff and very diverse menu with so many options. Food came out very quickly and presented well. The waffles were pretty standard but the haupia sauce (added ube mascarpone sauce) made it perfect without being too sweet. The star was da three bite feast. We can definitely tell that these are the top sellers because each one tasted amazing and the perfect go-to if you want a mix of sweet a savory. The pancakes were very soft and not too sweet since the sauce was drizzled on. The crab cake benedict was very crispy and better than we expected! The waygu loco moco had gravy that was nice and smooth. Definitely our new favorite go-to on the menu. The only down side is that the location is small but we came early so we had no problems getting a seat.

    Amazing customer service from the lady that answered the phone to take my order and when I got there the two ladies that helped me! Very fast, friendly, and efficient. Treated me like family!!! Cooks in the back went the extra mile too, to fold the fruits INTO my pancakes! Wow. Atmosphere was very inviting and clean. Great job is an understatement! Guieb Cafe everyone knows the food is always so Ono. But now you know the Aiea staff is bomb! A little bit extra love goes a long way. Will definitely continue to support!

    Local favorites with a twist! Appealing choices to select for B & L. Orchid adds a pop of color to entrees. Plethora of free parking in Harbor Center. Instructed to check in with the front staff. First come, first serve for five people or less. We're fortunate to have the last unoccupied table. Highly recommend calling restaurant to make reservations if it's for six or more people. Mom loved the simplicity and freshness of belgian waffles. Son enjoyed generous three stack of oreo cheesecake pancakes. He said it wasn't too sweet. Amazingly delicious crab cakes benedict! Loved how the yolks flowed freely after piercing eggs benedict. Crab cakes, hollandaise sauce, paprika, avocado, and English muffins integrated perfectly with each other. Yummy, crisp sweet potato fries complemented the remaining yolk and sweet, tangy ketchup. Colorful plates, beautiful presentation and delicious meals made a huge difference. Attentive, helpful, quick, efficient, and friendly staff. Quaint ambiance. AC working well. Limited seats are quickly occupied with dine in customers. Turn around times seem fast. There's a 3% surcharge for credit card(s). Highly recommend.

    Ube Mascarpone Pancakes

    Guieb Cafe has several locations on O'ahu and this was my first time trying out this location. We visited this establishment as part of a group and service was great! We had to wait a bit to be seated, but it was worth the wait. This location is smaller and has less seating available than the Wahiawa location. The food was served hot and fresh, and it was delicious as usual. Highly recommend! 15 photos should be included with this review.

    Ube Mascarpone Pancake
    Maansi M.

    There's a reason the wait is over an hour on a weekend morning -- Guieb Cafe might be small, but showcases beautiful, ono food that'll make the wait worth it! Not to mention, the staff are so kind and gracious, even when the atmosphere is packed. My friends and I had such a hard time deciding what to pick, but I got the Ube Marscapone pancakes, and I don't regret it. They were delicious, fluffy, and HUGE! Easy on the eyes and stomach. :) Parking is great, it's in a neighborhood of warehouse-like structures, and free if you're going for brunch, I'd recommend going early, but worth a try every time!

    Yes, I tried it. I tried it a week after I saw another patron order it and ate every drop. I asked her what she thought and she said she liked it, so I had it the following week. It is 3.5 stars to me. The broth isn't as rich and deep as the flavor…

From start to finish, the experience was amazing. Everything tasted great, and the student who served us made us feel very comfortable. They checked in often to see how the food was and whether we needed drink refills. The service was truly five-star. We loved every dish, especially because the flavors were well balanced and never overpowering. The blueberry scones were not too sweet and paired perfectly with the cream cheese. The salad starter was fresh, and the phyllo was crunchy and flavorful on its own. The crab was delicious and well prepared. For the main course, I had the pork loin with apricot and prune. The sweet and savory flavors worked beautifully together, and the meat was perfectly cooked and not dry at all. For dessert, I ordered the Pots de Crème au Chocolate. It was rich and indulgent without being overly sweet -- the perfect ending to the meal. Overall, this was a five-star experience, and I will definitely be booking another reservation again.

They're located inside the Donquijote Food Court and have ample seating inside as well as outside. I went with the Wagyu burger, fries, and tossed salad, and all three were very tasty. The burger was juicy and flavorful, the fries were salty and crispy on the outside, and the tossed salad was light and the dressing paired perfectly with it. One thing to keep in mind: they make everything fresh to order, so the wait can be a little longer than your typical quick-service spot. I actually think the freshness is worth the extra time, but it's something to be aware of if you're in a hurry. Also tried the Apple Mint Mojito, which was delicious--light, refreshing, and a great complement to the burger. One tip: If you prefer your burger more well-done, definitely let them know when you order. The burger can come out on the rarer/juicier side, so communicate your preferred doneness upfront. Overall, a tasty meal with quality ingredients and a nice made-to-order feel. 5/5 stars and I'd definitely come back.

Just right beside the Don Quijote food court is a cute place called Naks Cafe as this cozy spot offers quite the extensive menu from pasta, sandwiches and various plates though it all sounds amazing the prices were quite up there as well knowing that times are tough I couldn't see myself having French toast bites for $16.85 but badly need to refuel after a long day of errands. Seeing that they had soup of the day sounded very comforting and it was Japanese Corn Soup sounded perfect it was that along with a cup of Apple Mint Mojito sounded like the perfect combo strange as it may sound but I did enjoy it. The staff was very friendly as they brought out my items to me as I waited outside at the food court not just as it's a tiny place but no air-condition at all as it was very hot and humid in there was quite concerning and hope they have a fan or something to keep them cool which the drink certainly did that for me and I really enjoyed this refreshing sip. As for the soup it was very nice and hot and had a nice light flavor it just tasted like the instant soup I get from the store it wasn't like the corn was fresh especially since it claims to be house-made I was slightly disappointed but did come with two little pieces of garlic bread which did elevate it more still couldn't save my disappointment considering it was $9.85 over $17 with my drink, it gave me the much needed comfort as I just wanted some hot soup which I was so happy to find in the convenience right beside Don Quijote food court. Thank you!

The view is spectacular of Pearl Harbor and greens. We love sitting on the lanai and its seat-yourself so a server will come out to give menus. The place has been bought so a complete renovation with lovely new chairs, tables, couches, even a fire pit! Inside there are TVs abound and a nice full bar with 10 seats and TV.

Our 2-year old granddaughter enjoys eating there too and looks forward to seeing Annie, Nette and now Jazlyn!

Location: Kitchen Deja Vu is located inside the Blue Tropix Bar & Grill, which just so happens to be right across the Chili's from Pearlridge Center. Parking: Plenty! You can park anywhere in the Pearlridge Center parking lot Food: We ordered 5 items 1) pan fried pork cheese buns: 10/10 - pillowy soft bread expertly soaks up all the juices from the pork filling, perfectly pan fried bottom adds a bit of crunchy texture, pork filling was seasoned well and there was a decent amount of cheese inside as well (it was giving pizza flavor vibes), supposedly "spicy" but it wasn't too bad at all so this would be good even for those with a low spice tolerance 2) pulehu style short ribs: 10/10 - incredible smoked and grilled flavor, cooked and seasoned to perfection! They're not stingy either, nice portion size and a hearty amount of meat on each short rib too 3) big shrimp potstickers: 11/10 - succulent pork & shrimp filling filled to the brim of wrapper! Very on brand because these buggahs was massive and sooo tasty! Classic potsticker taste and there's a whole shrimp in there too, paired with their shoyu vinegar (I think) sauce and wooo this one was winnnahz ‍ 4) charsui udon: 10/10 - nice & chewy udon noodles and absolutely loaded with charsui and veggies that were so wonderfully stir fried allowing them to soften just a little but remain crispy, adding another layer of texture to the dish and ensuring you get a nice little crunch in every bite! 5) kau yuk (caramelized pork belly): 10/10 - big chunks of sweet & savory pork belly, but not as sweet as the name would have you think. It's actually perfectly balanced, you can definitely taste some authentic asian spices going on in there, and the meat was nice and tender Service: 11/10 We ordered take out but you can absolutely dine in if you wanted to, plenty of booths and/or tables to choose from. But I did wanna mention that we were lucky enough to meet Charlie, the owner! Really nice guy, after we gave him our order, our server Kyle took such good care of us. Checked in on us multiple times & offered to get us some water while waiting for our food. Overall: 10/10 Food was delicious, the chefs obviously know what's good, hats off to them! First time trying this place out and it didn't disappoint and love that you can also order directly from your phone through all major food delivery apps or you can even text your order in, how convenient!
