It's an average hotel restaurant, so if you're expecting romantic ambiance, or amazing dishes that…read morewill leave an everlasting memory, I'm afraid you'll be left wanting. However, if you expect decent grub and decent service, you'll be satisfied. The main glitch is their schedule, open for breakfast seven days per week, but dinner is some kind of every other day type deal. It makes no sense. Their response to this issue, they have a sister hotel with an open restaurant and they'll shuttle you over there. Not exactly gonna fill that "Gotta grab a bite right now" fix, so it's still a detriment, in my opinion. In summation, you're not going out of your way to eat here, but if you're staying here and want to grab some breakfast, you'll be satisfied. Update: Their plaza burger is indeed awesome! Big, juicy and flavorful! What more can you ask of your burger? Update #73: Though I'll not change my overall rating, it should be pointed out that dinner is no longer offered at all. As in zero! To offset that, now a free breakfast buffet is included. Previously you had to pay for breakfast and due to the nature of ordering breakfast, it was kind of slow if you were in a hurry. Now, just walk in and feast! It's a solid breakfast buffet! However, if you want something for dinner you have to jump in their shuttle to their sister hotel and partake at that facility. Not exactly convenient, but I understand that hotel no longer has any breakfast, so this is their way of cutting cost and still providing food options for all of their guests at both properties. I might try their sister hotel for dinner one of these nights this week.

Early lunch in Honolulu, Hawaii…read more.. Located at Makai Market Food Court, on the Ground Level of Ala Moana Center, my friend really wanted to dine here. I just followed... Ala Moana Poi Bowl is a vendor that has been around for a long time. Serving up local comfort food, employees are efficient, helpful, and have the Aloha Spirit! The free, shared, covered parking is another bonus! The restroom is in the furthest corner of the food court... look for signs and/or ask for directions in this busy, bright, clean place! My friend got Hamburger Steak and I got the Kalua pig and cabbage which came with two scoops of rice. I got a green salad instead of macaroni salad. It was filling and delicious! I'll be back!

Initially I was skeptical because 1) it's a food truck serving raw fish, 2) on an Air Force base, 3) and the two owners/operators don't look like my normal sushi person in town. Raw fish is something that necessitates some knowledge & skill to ensure everyone's safety. But I didn't want to wait in the subway line, so I took a chance. I think they use ahi tuna in chunks and their spicy sauce is delicious--it really is good. Just mix it all up and bam! In town, I have often found I don't get enough sauce or it's not that flavorful. That's not an issue here. They also have rolls and other items that I want to try in the future. They also provide two dumplings. They're not too bad. Not great but not bad. Some folks are complaining about the cost to portion ratio but I'd say it's about on par with any similar type casual sit down place in town. All in all, this will do. If you're expecting fine dining, you're barking up the wrong tree. It's a food truck ffs. They provide fresh, quick, & tasty food. What more do you want?

Takeout lunch from Kalihi, Honolulu, Hawaii…read more.. Roots Cafe is only open on Tuesdays and Thursdays between 11:30am and 1:30pm. I parked in the free parking lot of the Kokua Kalihi Valley Comprehensive Wellness Center and walked through the building. The cashier and cozy store are actually on the street side of the clinic. No need to go inside unless you want to dine in. I ordered the Aroz Caldo and added the egg upgrade for $1 more. It was a tasty, hearty, savory rice porridge with chunks of tender chicken and slivers of fresh ginger. It was delicious! Thanks for the friendly service and healthy meal!

Roots is one of my favorite places to eat when I visit Honolulu. The cafe is a teaching cafe within…read morea medical facility on the outskirts of Honolulu. The cafe specializes in the use of locally grown ingredients and traditional Hawaiian preparation. A goal of the cafe is to promote healthy eating. The foods are interesting, beautiful and delicious. The cafe and shop are only opened lunchtime a couple days per week and Thursday is one of those days. We stopped by the shop to pick up fresh coconuts and apple bananas before ordering our lunch. Inside, up a flight of stairs, is the cafe with seating for about 30 people. The cafe is not upscale, just plain aloha friendly. The menu changes daily depending on ingredients in season and what is part of the culinary curriculum. For lunch, I had the Miso Eggplant Bowl which was delicious with a huge serving of roasted eggplant, a saffron style rice and a few other veggies. I also had the Soursop Smoothie, which was a delightful frozen and tart beverage. I would go back for the smoothie. My daughter had a Meatball Sub which was gigantic with huge meatballs on a tomato sauce. Her meal was served with a blend of roasted local veggies that were delicious and interesting. She also had a Lemonbalm Lemonade, that she devored every last drop. We finished our meal with Lemon Bar desserts. Don't skip dessert - the desserts are wonderful. We found free street parking nearby. There are restrooms in the facility.

Happy birthday Yelp buddy Donna O.!…read more We had an enjoyable birthday breakfast buffet here. Located in the Ala Moana Hotel by Mantra, dining at Café 410 is a perfect way to start your morning with your friends, visitors and family. Valet and self parking are available at the hotel. No reservations are needed. There was less than a five minute wait time to be seated at our table. Spacious room with a variety of table options. Clean tables and chairs. Nice window views. Buffet Pricing Information: Adult - $27.50 Keiki (10 and under) - $16.50 Seniors - $24.75 Military - $24.75 Airlines - $24.75 Hours of operation: Monday thru Friday Open 6:30 AM - 10:00 AM Saturday and Sunday Open 7:00 AM - 10:30 AM Please refer to a photo of the Buffet Menu. We also had POG (passion fruit, orange juice and guava juice combo). Our server let me mix coffee and cocoa together. ; -). Yummy. Fresh fruits were nice. Pineapple was on the tart side. Red papaya was perfect. Standard breakfast buffet options offered here. The waffles had a Haupia sauce available. It was on the thin side and unremarkable. Service was attentive for the most part. The place filled up after we started. Our server was kept busy. Bathrooms are oddly located outside of the restaurant. It's not far, but it's also not near. IYKYK. Best part was celebrating Donna's birthday and talking story with her. She is a busy person at work and home. I'm delighted she was able to pick this place and we got together today.

This is mainly a breakfast buffet place located next to the lobby of Ala Moana Hotel. Open from 630-10am weekdays and 7-1030am weekends. No hotel parking, but can park at Ala Moana and walk over. The regular price for the buffet is $27.50. What a deal! Where else can you find a buffet UNDER $30?? No where else! Kids $16.50. Senior/Military/Airlines is $24.75. On certain holidays, Cafe 410 offers a special brunch buffet. We went on Mother's Day. $85/person, $40 for keiki (6-11). Being a keiki at heart doesn't count :(. A very good deal with other places well over $100 per person. It might not be as expansive as other places, but still had Prime Rib, Snow Crab Legs, Roasted Pork Loin, Misoyaki Butterfish, Omelette Station, and etc. The inside is open and spacious, clean and organized. It had a cozy, comfortable, and welcoming atmosphere. A nice assortment of bread, bagels, and other pastries. Really enjoyed everything in the cold station: sushi, shrimp cocktail, smoked salmon with capers and red onion, cheese with jam, sweet potato salad, green onion and ginger tofu and etc. These were all my favorites! Biggest surprise was the tofu because the green onion and ginger sauce was spot on! Hot entrees were good. Definitely hit up mostly the Misoyaki butterfish and snow crab. Fish was very tasty and flavorful. Crab was sweet. Enjoyed the local style fried rice! Forgot how good it was! Probably the only thing that was a miss was the hamburger steak. I liked the thick patties, but it wasn't seasoned enough in the meat and sauce. Overall, a very nice brunch. Enjoyed everything. Definitely left super full! Service was excellent. Our server was very friendly and attentive, and super nice. Loved seeing the manager and head chef walking around checking on guests, and each table received chocolate ganache truffles personally made by him. They were very good! Smooth, nice consistency, and not overly sweet. With so many families dining, staff being so welcoming, plus the pleasant music in the background, it felt like Ohana.
