    Shan M.

    The space felt immediately understaffed as soon as we walked in with exasperated staff and unbussed table everywhere. I got the steak and eggs plate, ordered it medium, and sadly it was just so bad. Steak was dry as a bone and tasted not fresh, like it had been sitting a while in the fridge. And the rice was completely dried out and crunchy I couldn't even chew it. Totally not worth the money. Sorry.

    Love their breakfast and can't beat $10.99 restaurant vibe was pretty cool too!

    $10.99 Breakfast special, best price in Waikiki and lots of easy free parking Went here with my friend for breakfast, great hidden gem in Waikiki!

    Sysco Fries, Mid-Tier Mozzarella Sticks, Bud Light (I ordered Stella..), and the flattest most syrup-less Coke on the island.

    Every single vacation is going to have some highs and some lows. You hope to keep the lows to a minimum and ride the high moments, without a doubt. Walking into the Kayak Cafe & dining was by far the low point of my weeklong stay in Honolulu/Waikiki. First of all, the menu presented to us at the door and by staff included many items they claimed were unavailable. French Toast on the menu, but unavailable? Broccolini Pasta on the menu, but unavailable? Strange to bring out menus with items you don't actually want people to attempt ordering? Right? They also claimed to have a beer special going on when you ordered food, $3.00 for Stella Artois drafts is a great deal -- we'd done a ton of walking and wanted food pick-me ups and drinks before we walked some more... except they brought me Bud Lite and claimed it was Stella. I can tell the skunkiness difference. I've worked in a bar. Additionally, soda syrups get low and need to be changed.. we also ordered a Coke with our food and it was (pictured) just soda water with cola color added. No flavor left. Again, I've worked in a bar and know what it looks like when it needs changing. I asked for a fresh one, and it took almost 10 minutes for them to bring back a new Coke glass... with it unchanged. Still a nearly see-through soda class with the faintest hit of cola taste, but 99% soda water taste. How? How is it possible to fail this badly across so many fronts on a main boulevard for walking and commerce in a tourist destination? I will not even dig on the service because it was also bad, but if I had to guess based on how many people we saw, they were severely understaffed for the day. Lastly, when I asked for the check, they seemed to have no clue what that meant and directed me to the front door to pay at the counter. Very bizarre, all said. If I could give zero stars, I would. Waste of time & money, avoid the Kayak Cafe.

    Kayak our way to Kayak Cafe.

    Kayak ourselves to Kayak Cafe. We started our day with a morning breakfast at Kayak Cafe. It's located in the same building as Kan Sushi. Parking is FREE. Yup, it's not easy to find parking around Waikiki and not have to pay!! We walked down from the parking garage and walked into the restaurant. The restaurant is also split between Kan Sushi and Kayak Cafe. We were greeted by two staffs and were told to find a table. We chose a table with the city view. It was a nice and quite morning He got Kayak Morning Plate with Crispy Bacon, Portuguese Sausage, Scrambled Eggs and Fried Rice. It's plated on a nice paddle like plate in black. He paired his with affogato. The affogato is a hot espresso poured over a vanilla ice cream. It's a bit too bitter for me so I'd like two more scoops of vanilla ice cream to give a sweeter taste! ;) For me, I got their Meat Lovers Omelette with Country Potatoes. The potatoes had a nice flavor with a teeny bit of kick of spice to it. The omelette had lots of meats! The Rocky Road Latte was sweet but could have been topped with marshmallows ;) I think that would have added a nice touch to it. Overall, the cafe is cute and a perfect place for breakfast. The place provided a peaceful atmosphere to enjoy your breakfast with a family or friends or both! Our server was William and this other guy but we didn't get his name. Both were amazing with friendly smile and love that they both were taking turns to check in on us. Thank you for reading my review. Have a great weekend!

    Biscuits and gravy, Wagyu Loco Moco

    My Fiance and I decided to check out Kayak cafe after seeing OnFireHawaii's review on Instagram. We also looked up reviews on here and saw that it had a few negative reviews mostly dealing with bad customer service. For us the food was good and the customer service was sub par, but it mostly had to do with one of the employees. Right off the back as we walked in one of the employees who we think was the bald manager/shift lead with out greeting us told us it's gonna be a 10 min wait and walked off, immediately after another employee walked up to us and told us he had a table ready, the restaurant was pretty empty too so we were surprised when we were told we were gonna have to wait. Our waiter was named Devin I believe and he was very nice and attentive, if anything he made the experience worth it and kept us from leaving. He took our order and we waited about 15 mins for our food. It's worth mentioning that a whole table next to us ended up leaving before they even got their meal since they were waiting for so long, they were also told that they were out of steak after they had already put their order in. Their waiter was also the bal manager/shift lead and wasn't giving them the most friendly tone. We ordered the biscuits and gravy with link sausage and the wagyu Loco moco. The biscuits and gravy was great and had amazing flavor, paired with the sausage it was awesome. The wagyu loco moco was okay, the patty was pretty dry but overall the meal wasn't too bad. One last thing we noticed, Devin was speaking to another table and asking them a few questions about their day, the bald manager/shift lead then came and scolded him and told him to get back to work. I understand they were pretty busy but the restaurant wasn't even that packed. Employee's like Devin are what keep people going back to your establishment, and it just shows what kind of establishment the manager wants to run when you see something like that. So over all the energy/atmosphere in the restaurant was pretty tense and unwelcoming, mostly of the bald manager/ shift leads doing. I don't think we'd be returning anytime soon to eat at Kayak Cafe, if anything I'd probably get my biscuits and gravy to go in the future. Devin if you're reading this you are the real MVP!

    Loco Moco

    We stopped in for a loco moco-super disappointed. They ran out of wagyu beef patties-which was fine, but the substitute patty was freezer burnt and lacked any flavor. My husband & I were 2 of 3 customers and we still didn't get an opportunity to refill our drinks. I'm disappointed to have tried this place out, but at least I know now. My opinion-go somewhere else...

    Have not gone in for brunch yet, but this is next on our list for Waikiki location, especially if you can't get into Aloha kitchen around the corner. This is another great spot that is super friendly lots of seating. Can't wait to give this one a try and finish the review.

After looking over the menu options, we stood waiting for quite a while before anyone acknowledged us or took our order. The manager seemed rude and unwelcoming, which immediately set a negative tone for the visit. Looking back we should have trusted our first impression, but we decided to give it a chance and see what the hype was about. We each ordered a slice of pizza and took it outside to eat. After eating , we walked past the glass wall of the cafe and I noticed the manager handling and mixing flour with his bare hands, with the flour mixture covering his hands and forearms. I didn't expect to see food prep without disposable gloves and it made me uncomfortable. The pizza itself didn't make up for the experience. At around $22 per slice, I was expecting something exceptional or life-changing, instead, it was pretty underwhelming. The flavor, texture, and overall quality just didn't justify the premium price. Between the unfriendly service, concerns about food handling, and the disappointing pizza, I don't feel the experience was worth the cost of overpriced slices of pizza and I will not be returning nor will I recommend Little G Cafe to others. There are plenty of other pizza spots in Honolulu, including Boston's Pizza, that offer better value and a much more welcoming atmosphere.

The crust…read moreis a little less blistered than some places but is solid, great bite, foldable, served on classic NY white paper plates with wavy rim. They have some creative other slices like vodka sauce with pesto etc which are tasty but if you're a pizza purist and lover you can't go wrong with two cheese slices. There aren't much frills so you can have water or soda from their mini fridge. Almost like going to a corner pizza place in the city. Sandwiches available sometimes. We go early for lunch on Sundays and grab a seat outside. The proprietor was especially kind and friendly to my FIL and I appreciated that. Overall this is the second best NY style pizza place after black shamrock by a small margin - the Jersey pie at shamrock with its awesome sauce and perfect crust is hard to beat but don't think you can order it by the slice. So very very close.

Sustainable carbs just taste better...it's science. The Vibe: The waitress was incredibly sweet, and the sit-down space is so cute. The Verdict I love a good boujee on a budget meal, but even if there's no mystery boxes available on Save a Bite, Pizza Mamo is totally a place I would order in, sit down, soak up the vibes and snag a slice or 3 from...which we definitely will be doing in the future.

I dine out far less frequently these days, and when I do I've become more of a take out, or low key hole in the wall, byob kinda girl.

Smack dab in the center of Kaimuki. Offering pizza that tastes and looks like it came from Italy. It hits the sweet spot of upscale casual, blending refinement and taste, with neighborhood comfort. I admit I may be biased, as I used to work nearby and saw this place come to life from the beginning, often seeing the owner and staff around. The owner, Matt, is passionate about his craft and just an overall great human. Because of this, his staff is also top-notch; every experience I've had there, the service has been just like the ambiance--polished and refined, yet comfortable and welcoming. I can devour a pizza by myself with no problem (no misses, each one a hit), share a bunch of apps, pizzas, and pasta with a group, or simply sit at the bar and drink a glass of wine or a cocktail or two.

For dessert, we enjoyed ice cream topped with Nutella, olive oil, and sea salt. It may sound simple, but the combination was incredible. The creamy ice cream, rich chocolate-hazelnut spread, subtle saltiness, and fruity olive oil created the perfect balance of sweet and savory flavors. From the cocktails to dessert, every dish was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented.

However, I didn't realize I had this burning desire until I saw the foodie pics here on Yelp. It was then that I seriously wondered how I could inject a little more variety into my foodie repertoire. I saw this restaurant listed on Yelp and immediately thought, Ooh, what about Italian??? :D Myself replied: Mmm, that sounds tantalizing, Jules Y.! :D After perusing the menu to make sure I wasn't gonna miss out on a thing, it only took a few seconds for me to hone in on the two items I ultimately ordered: * 16" Florentine pizza (gigante) * Gnocchi Gorgonzola with added mushrooms I added mushrooms to the gnocchi dish, which was a fantastic decision I would not want to go without on future dines of this dish. The pizza was a thin crust topped with luscious mozzarella, rough-chopped garlic, spinach, and ricotta cheese. The gnocchi contained chicken chunks, potato gnocchi, luscious cream sauce, and the mushrooms I added. The Florentine immediately caught my eye. I'm particular about not eating sausage, pepperoni, and other typical pizza meats, so this cheese-and-spinach combination was exactly what I was looking for. I expected something around a medium-sized pizza, but what arrived was this unexpectedly large pie sitting inside a huge, flat pizza box. It seemed enormous! The crust was thin with a nicely fire-charred edge, while the center was packed with luscious cheesy goodness. Random dollops of ricotta, spinach leaves, and these entirely unexpected little chunks of fresh, soft, juicy garlic created little flavor explosions throughout every bite. It made eating the pizza fun because each slice was a little different. Although I thought I was hungry enough to eat a lion, I naturally stopped after only a couple of slices. That turned out to be a bonus because I had delicious leftovers for lunches and dinners over the next couple of days. The Gnocchi Gorgonzola was a different experience altogether. Tender potato gnocchi were coated in a thick, luscious cream sauce with chunks of chicken scattered throughout. The mushrooms I added were thinly sliced and blended in perfectly with the gnocchi, chicken, and creamy sauce. My only criticism is that the dish was saltier than I would have preferred. I think using about half as much salt would have allowed the flavors of the gnocchi and sauce to shine through even more. Aside from that, every bite was pleasantly chewy, rich, creamy, and satisfying. The sauce was everywhere--and that is definitely a good thing. Yum! These two dishes complemented each other perfectly because they offered completely different flavors and textures. The rich, cheesy Florentine pizza paired wonderfully with the creamy Gnocchi Gorgonzola. If I eat here again, I'll probably order these exact same dishes. If you enjoy Italian food as much as I do, I suspect you'll enjoy Aroma Italia's menu.

    LOVED THE CANNIBALE PIZZA !!!…read more I also ordered the linguine with pink sauce and added meatballs and sausage. It was excellent. I think I would probably order it again but with the marinara sauce. The garlic bread with mozzarella cheese was good but I would order the regular garlic bread since it's less rich and would pair better with the entree. I think the garlic bread with mozzarella cheese would be great as an appetizer though. The ingredients on both the pasta and pizza were very generous. If I were to take friends out for Italian food I would bring them here.
