Pumpkin Cold Brew
Kendra Z.

Coffee review only... I was staying at a friends place nearby and needed coffee in the morning. 3 of my friends came along. So we walked over and walked inside at 9am, restaurants was empty. The interior was modern and cute. This is not a coffee shop but they have coffee drinks. They had a decent coffee selection on the menu, and I ordered the pumpkin cold brew. The server was friendly and we all placed our orders. I got the pumpkin cold brew and was highly disappointed, it wasn't flavorful and the server forgot the splash of milk. My friends would also agree that their drinks were just ok. The food menu looked delish, so I would come back to try the food, but not for a coffee drink.

Came here for breakfast with a friend. This restaurant is clean and convenient lots of parking across the street. I got the banana pankakes and it was huge!!! I thought the service was phenomenal. The restaurant is not super loud so talking and chatting is perfect.

If you are looking for something different for breakfast you got to give Moena Cafe a try. Their menu has traditional breakfast items with a Hawaiian twist. Some of my favorites include the short rib loco moco, pineapple sausage, kalua pig, fried rice and the banana chantilly pancakes. Their menu is actually a lot bigger than I thought. The servers are always so nice when we are there. The ambiance is fancy and quiet. Pinks, gold and white colors. Some of the menu items are on the pricey side but where else can you get a loco moco with fried rice or fresh fish for breakfast? We've been here multiple times and will go back again to try more things off of their big menu. I highly recommend it.

This restaurant is adorable! From the interior design to the menu, the attention to detail is amazing! They have lots of options between omelettes to a breakfast plate to pancakes and sweet breakfasts. Their food is well seasoned and I love the choices of sides that they have. Downtown Daybreak is booming and it's exciting to see that a Hawaiian restaurant is thriving in Utah. Will go back!

Guys I'm obsessed with this place! My husband and I went for a morning brunch date and had an amazing experience! Staff took such great care of us and the food was phenomenal! I would highly recommend this place for brunch asap!!

Avocado toast with poached eggs and goat cheese crumbles.
Robert V.

The food and service were excellent on a Wednesday at 11:30AM. What made this wonderful was the relaxed and very clean ambiance as well as the service. I had the poached eggs on avocado toast with goat cheese crumbles. I highly recommend it. It was amazing. The creamy goat cheese crumbles complemented the texture of meal. The greens provided a satisfying crunch, while the grain bread was satisfying as it soaked the warm yolk of the perfectly poached eggs. The coffee was also very good. I had it with almond milk and no sugar. I could taste the notes of coffee and chocolate. I was told it was a Hawaii coffee bean. Very unique. I also had the coconut pineapple cream soda refresher. It was also wonderful. Almost like a sudsy piña colada. Highly recommend the establishment if you haven't visited. Five stars.

Food was okay, lacks some original flavor, service was basic and okay. Not bad. Ambiance was excellent! Recommend for brunch!

My husband and I love to try new spots and saw this restaurant as one of the newer brunch places, so we decided to stop by. Wait wasn't too bad, it was about 30 minutes. However they don't really have a waiting lobby to sit inside so it would be crowded by the entrance if you came on a rainy day like we did. The hostess sat us comfortably since we had our baby as well. We ordered the loco moco, and I had the kalua pig Benedict. At first I did ask for the fried rice, but the Benedict came with potatoes instead because the waiter mistakenly heard potatoes. Which is okay because those potatoes were so good! They complement the dish probably better than the fried rice would. The kalua pork was delicious and not salty at all as most times I would have kalua pork it would be salty. We had the ham and pineapple sausage on the side which were good too! I rated 4 stars because of the waiters mistake and she did constantly forget some things we asked which we constantly had to remind her. Despite that though she was great and mistakes happen. Keep in mind this is a small cafe so it's ideal for a small group or a couple, not a big group. I would definitely be back!

Aloha! Welcome to Downtown Daybreak-the first restaurant to open in the area. It's an upscale Hawaiian cafe-but not the typical food you might be expecting. I pictured teriyaki chicken rice bowls, but was pleasantly surprised by chicken cranberry sandwiches and other refreshing delights. The space is clean and modern-very aesthetically appealing. Service was friendly and attentive. They did run out of turkey, which impacted the turkey sandwich, but the chicken substitute was still nice. I look forward to returning and trying different dishes.

Chantel M.

The space is cute and bright, and the Hawaiian-inspired menu is a fun concept for brunch. The food was decent, but nothing really stood out or wowed me, especially for the wait and the price point. Some dishes felt a little under-seasoned, and service was friendly but a bit slow when it was busy. It's not bad by any means, but it didn't quite live up to the hype. I'd come back if it was convenient, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. Solid, just average overall.

Banana coconut Chantelle (1 stack)
Noel V.

This restaurant is lovely. The food is an elevated take on Hawaiian breakfast with touches of Lilikoi, coconut, spam, fried rice, loco moco in some of the dishes. I tried the loco moco, banana chantilly pancake, and the omelet, and the portions are generously sized, which is always a plus. I like that they have seasonal drinks and variety like Italian soda. It's a small spot right by the ballpark, so the crowd fills up quickly.

Short rib loco moco is BOMB!
Ina T.

Came here on Christmas Eve, it was a long wait because we came at a prime time. They don't take reservations so be prepared to wait to get a table and to eat if you have a big party like our table of 12. It was worth the wait! Our family loves this place! We've been here 3x's and it won't be the last. Our fav is the loco moco, lilikoi mochi pancakes, MC special, Salmon Benedict, our kids love to get the fancy sodas, shakes, lattes, we haven't had anything we don't like lol We'll be back!

Real authentic Hawaiian bbq good enough to slap your momma. Run, don't walk to the register to order the sinfully delicious garlic shrimp. Let me say that again, if you want an "eyes rolling in the back of your head" moment this is your protein choice. But she's not the only dish to surely satisfy the needs of your tastebuds. Garlic chicken, perfect. It's fried to crispy perfection then covered in garlic sauce done right. Chicken Katsu, amazing (although what chicken Katsu isn't?!?). If you go on a Friday you can't go wrong with the beef short ribs an absolute stud of a protein/meat choice. Yum freaking yum. Let us not forget the sides, the supporting characters that can make the difference between a good show and an epic one. Their Mac salad contains imitation crab giving it that extra something and pushing it above those "other guys". Rice is rice, good job. For the more adventurous than the typical Utahn palette try that cucumber cup, spicy? Yes. Crunchy? Yes. Good? Yes.

A few visits to this location and I can say I can return to this one. Service was prompt and polite, and even with an hour before closing, there wasn't an attitude in sight or ear shot to make me feel like an inconvenience. We ordered 2 plates - Ekolu with the regular rice and mac and a katsu plate with 2 mac/1 rice. Waited a couple minutes for the shrimp for the ekolu plate to be ready and bae was a happy camper. All meats were cooked well, no undercooked business going on over here :) Rice is rice, mac salad wasn't overly mayo'd up. Used the app for a free plate before it expired and that was done with ease as well. I got my POG fix at the drink station before leaving. ADA compliant. Clean dining area. No sight of trash outside of building. Did not use the restroom to advise on that.

Not going to lie, Mo' Bettah's is never my first choice for food. However, the Teriyaki Chicken…read morewith the spicy mayo hit the spot on this particular occasion. Both the rice and mac salad is so boring to me, but the quality of meat is what makes it worth the price. And I have to give this specific location credit for being very friendly and efficient.

The boy in the…read morefront counter just said "DoorDash?" and after confirming the boy just placed the food on the counter. My man said "Thank you" and the kid didn't say anything back. We are originally from Hawaii and for a place portraying Hawaiian/Polynesian food and culture we sure didn't feel the "Aloha Spirit". Their customer service was severely lacking! Then the food - we ordered the 2 meat combo plate with the garlic chicken and kalua pig, rice, mac, and sapa sui. Also, the Katsu with fries, guava cake, and mango otai. The otai and the guava cake were decent. The Katsu was cooked well, but lacked crunch. The garlic chicken and kalua pig were so dry and tasted bland. The Mac salad lacked flavor also, the sapa sui was just okay. Overall, just super disappointed in the food. We've heard about them through reels claiming they were really good. We always try to support local, especially the poly community here in Utah but our experience just wasn't the greatest. They claim to be serving "island love" but we just didn't feel it, if you decide to try them, hopefully you have a better experience.
