Umami Avocado Toast
Patrick R.

The perfect place to get a quick breakfast or coffee. The avocado toast with the umami sauce is so amazing, hits just the right spot in the morning. The Acai bowl is one of the best we've had on the island, their base is perfectly sweet and balanced. The service is amazing, very nice people and the ambiance is great too. They always play good music, and have a nice bar to sit on while you enjoy your food and drinks.

randomly came here on a sunday morning & we tried their avocado toast & acai bowl. it was honestly the best avocado toast i've ever had. it was LOADED. i've never had one with cream cheese before - it was eye opening experience :0 also the sauce on top is apparently unagi sauce like wow innovative and never been done before truly. acai was also the perfect consistency. to top it all off i came with a guy i think is so cute so the entire experience was truly fantastic :3 side note it's located at the bottom of century center building, there is a parking lot for guest parking, but it costs $2 (i think it's free tho when u stay for like 15min or so)

Avocado cream cheese toast with red peppercorn and umami sauce. Guava Lemonade and recommended coffee by owner.

Well, this may not be a fancy pastry shop, they have a solid assortment of pastries, and their…read moreMalasadas are some of the best I've ever had. I highly recommend stopping in and grabbing their coconut peanut butter or macadamia nut peanut butter. They also have several other variations, including chocolate. They also offer local honey. Their peanut butter is highly sought after back in the states. So if you're here grab a combo and give it a try, you just might find yourself ordering some online once you've given it a try.

I stopped by here yesterday morning for a coffee and a malasada. While traveling I try to hit up a…read morenew local coffee shop every day and on this morning it happened to be Maleko Coffee and Pastries. This might be one of the only places in Waikiki open at 4 AM which is perfect if you've just arrived the night before from the East Coast. The inside of the shop feels homey. They have a display case full of pastries along with additional baked goods set out nearby. For my coffee on this morning I decided to go with a coconut latte and then ordered a blueberry malasada while my father went with a custard-filled one. At Maleko, the malasadas are pre-made but not filled until you order which I think is a smart move. I first tried my blueberry malasada and thought it was good. The dough was light and fluffy and the filling had a great flavor. As for my coffee, I have to agree with other reviews that the syrup made it overly sweet. I still drank it, but I definitely would have preferred something less sweet. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again for the malasadas. As for the coffee, I would probably pass unless you prefer your drinks on the sweeter side.

I'm here a lot for work for the past few years but have been coming to the islands for many years…read more I've been a true loyalist to Island Vintage for at least 11yrs at this location. Over the years I've noticed the staff has become so much nicer and welcoming which is what I think of when I think of the Aloha spirit. Today I encountered a simple smile from the barista when I asked for extra half and half. She was very kind and sweet and sometimes that's all it takes. Keep in mind they are extremely busy with a line outside so to still offer good customer service in the middle of all that is gold. I always put my order in through the toast app and pick up to go. By the time my drink is ready my açaí bowl is melted. Today I decided to bring it up to the staff and encountered my lovely Lucille. She took my açaí bowl and put it in her freezer and gave me direction to put a note on my order to not prep the açaí bowl till I get there. That was very helpful! I'm happy not to have açaí soup anymore! Haha! But the best thing about it, she did it with a smile and it was genuine. You know when you just feel someone has a good soul..yeah, I felt that. Her demeanor was no different than how a family member would treat you. When she handed my açaí bowl back, she placed a napkin underneath it so the warmth of my hand wouldn't melt the bowl further...and the cherry on top was that I literally had the absolute BEST açaí bowl I've ever had made by Lucille. No joke! Sometimes there is too much granola, or too little fruit, but she made it with the perfect balance with each ingredient. She spoiled me and now I always want my açaí bowls to be made by Lucille! Lmao. I've been going through some tough times and I hope she knows (along with the taller young barista who offered me the half and half) that they both made my day a little brighter. See you in a couple days when I'm back! lol I swear I spend all my money every month at Island Vintage! The best of the best! I wish I took a photo of her beautiful creation but I got it down way too quick! :( Order the açaí bowl with Haupia cream and the Mona Kea iced coffee with macadamia nut, salted caramel and lava salt. You won't regret it! And you won't have to wait in line if you order from the toast local app if getting it to go! You're welcome:)
