    Pulled Pork and Chicken Tacos
    Darian G.

    I'm going to be thinking about the chicken taco here for the rest of my life. Also, the Jetlag latte is a certified 10/10. Strolled in on a Tuesday afternoon at 1 p.m. after a beach day, the place was pretty empty but people were regularly strolling through for pick-up orders. The girl at the front register was so, so nice and explained her favorite items on the menu very excitedly. After I placed my order, she told me it was her first day. She did great! I ordered the Jetlag latte, which is an iced cold brew latte with Nutella and milk, and it is to-die for. It's sweet and full of that great Nutella flavor, and the coffee is smooth. A super satisfying drink. My partner ordered the Lilikoi Lemonade, which we didn't expect to be carbonated, but it was a nice surprise. The carbonation did make the drink taste slightly bitter, but the flavor is still good enough to drink. We also ordered the pulled pork taco, which came with guacamole and pineapple salsa. This one was good, but the taco got super cold very fast due to the cold glob of guacamole on top. The flavor was good. However, the chicken taco.. Oh my god, that taco. I'm from Vegas, so I have great tacos all of the time, but this taco put every other taco to shame. Top 3 taco of my entire life. The chicken taco came with a garlic cilantro sauce, and that was all it needed. Impeccable taco. I will be thinking about it for the rest of my life. Overall, a super cute and really solid place. I plan on coming back here a few more times during my trip to try more items.

    Hangover Burrito Dirty Horchata

    My boyfriend was craving breakfast - he did want more of an American breakfast style but this was closest to us. It was pretty good! We both got the hangover burrito. I will say please use less potato - it overpowered everything. The cashier was a sweetheart! It's decorated like a Mexican restaurant w a cool burrito disco ball haha

    In Hawaii with my family and we ended up choosing Munch N Brunch for breakfast after our hike. Great choice !!!BEST MATCHA AND BEST BEEF NACHOS IVE HAD

    Avocado sunrise.  Best avo toast in Hawaii.

    This is Munch N Brunch's first standalone location - previously, it was just a food truck. I'd never been to their truck cuz I've found the other food trucks in Waikiki to be kinda meh. I stopped in shortly after they first opened and am so happy I did. This location is across the street from my building which is awesome as a solid breakfast spot was badly needed in the Eaton Square area (ABC Store and McDonalds weren't cutting it lol). Munch n brunch is now one of my regular go-tos. I LOVE the Veggie Sunrise - the picture really doesn't do it justice as it's consistently awesome. When I asked if it was essentially avocado toast, one of their employees stated, "it's way better than that." They were right - the hummus, avocado, onion and egg go together perfectly. This is, by far, the best avocado toast I've had in Hawaii and probably in the top 3 of any avocado toast I've tried. Since it has more than just avocado, it's a good source of protein and a solid breakfast that gets me going. I also love their coffee - I strongly recommend the Jetlag and Mac nut latte. The former has Nutella in it, sweet but not overly so. The Mac nut coffee is great as well - again, just the right level of sweetness. My only complaint was I wish they offered a larger option, but that's how you know it's legit. Employees are amazing, super friendly and helpful, which I could never be that early in the AM. I also love that One of the employees (I think the owner?) drives a pink Jeep with some cool ducks on the dash, but you'd have to own a Jeep to appreciate that haha. They do get quite busy in the mornings, but it's worth the wait. You can also order through CashApp ahead of time which is handy - they have a rewards program as well. Open until 3 PM so great for a late breakfast.

    LILIKOI PANCAKES ... Yummy

    Great food. Filling and super yummy food. Friendly service. Casual and light dinning . Great location.

    Love, love, love! New location, but the same great quality and taste. The inside is so cute and fun. I still go to the food truck location often (close to my job), but I wanted to check out their new indoor location as well, which is also very close and perfect for lunch. They have an amazing Marshmallow Matcha... I highly recommend it! The pulled pork tacos are heavenly and packed with lots of flavor. I usually switch between the tacos and the bikini panini.

    My fiance and I wanted to try a new breakfast spot and came across this place... it's small but it's MIGHTY! The employees were all so kind and very fast. The breakfast was soo good. I got the Waikīkī Beach sandwich sans tomato and my fiance got the hangover burrito and subbed the pork for beef brisket and we shared the chilli mango and the pina colada smoothies. This is definitely a must-go if you are in the Waikīkī beach area!

    Food Cafe on a small street of apartments. Food was tasty, costly for morning snack. Self service : put in your order, get buzzer, pickup order when buzzer rings. No ambiance, just a stop to eat at table and run.

    French toast with side bacon and eggs. Nice size serving . Icouldn't even finish it.
    Dannielle I.

    The food was great! The prices are really reasonable and the service was excellent. If you haven't tried this place yet, you really need to.

    Hangover burrito, grilled banana bread( left) Lilikoi pancake(back) veggie Sunrise (right)
    Megan P.

    hummus is gonna be a new favorite for me. It was slightly sweet but still savory and anything on a sourdough bread is perfection. For the sweets we tried the Lilikoi pancake and grilled banana bread. Oh my goodness if you love the crumble they put on coffee cakes then you're gonna love the almond crumble in the Lilikoi pancake. It added such a nice textural contrast but still kept a local feel with the freshly cut pineapples and Lilikoi butter. Also while a grilled banana bread sounds simple, trust me this is not! Think Creme brûlée meats banana bread. It's warm and nutty but then has a nice caramelization where it's been grilled. I've had my fair share of grilled corn bread but never had a grilled banana bread. Delicious ! The owner amber is literally the nicest and sweetest lady . The staff are also super awesome too. Definitely worth the drive if you're not in the areas and most definitely worth making the stop if you are in the area! I will have to come back and try more stuff !!

    This an absolute must try. Their food is amazing!!! Excellent breakfast. Plenty of seating if you want to stay and eat.

    The Hangover

    We had The Hangover breakfast burrito and it was fantastic! A huge burrito with great flavors. Staff is so friendly and a great ambiance! A great addition to the neighborhood! Can't wait to work my way through the menu!

Had a glass of wine and baby had watered down lemonade. Her drinks were put in plastic cups with covers and those horrible paper straws. Eyes always bigger than my stomach, we ordered: - Cornbread - when i grabbed it I thought would be super dense but really wasn't. I thought it was very corny and tasty. Lightly toasted. Honey drizzle which wasn't too sweet...or maybe I just ate the parts that didn't have. Baby ate almost 1.5 pieces and even liked the Jalapeno Butter that I just dabbed on her bread. She said wasn't spicy but think she just didn't have enough. - Bone Marrow - lit it on fire to burn off the alcohol. Pretty sure it ddin't get it all so I cut baby off once I realized it. Other than needing some salt, really good. Choke mushrooms on top. One half was scrawny, but hubs had the other half for leftovers and choke marrow. YUM. - Sunchoke and Brussels - YUM. Baby ate some but was not really thrilled about it. I loved it. - Scallop and Mushroom Risotto - YUM. Delish. Baby liked it too. So much leftovers of everything. Realized when we ate it for leftovers it was all pretty oily and needed a pinch of salt. But otherwise great. Staff really nice and helpful. Love that the place is spread out and open. Bathrooms are not assigned which I'm sure can get gross, but is great to not have to wait for just the women's. There is a big stall which was perf since baby is potty training and had to go #1 and #2! Only thing missing was a hook to hang my purse and her bag.

The Duck Confit was yummy! I thought the duck was going to be super dry, but when you eat it with the jam that came with it, it's very good. I requested for a little bit more of the jam but was given just balsamic glaze... My friend said her scallop risotto was watery and not the same as the last time she went. My bfs prime rib was okay. Bone marrow was okay. The chicken pasta, octopus appetizer, salad, and mac n cheese were lacking flavor and tasted okay. I would recommend dining here if you do not have plans after.

    I honestly don't understand the hype surrounding this place, the reality is completely misleading…read more I called 15 minutes ahead to place an order. The employee took it and immediately hung up on me--no name taken, no "thank you," no "goodbye." When I arrived, the parking was a mess, so I had to be dropped off. Inside, the food display looked sad, and the cashier looked completely miserable and unpresentable. While waiting patiently on the side for 15 minutes, I watched the kitchen staff preparing food. Red flag: they literally microwave their eggs instead of cooking them fresh. After 30 minutes of total waiting time, I finally went up to check on my order, only to find out the cashier hadn't even handed my ticket to the kitchen yet. She sent it back right in front of me without a single word of apology--just a blank stare. I cancelled my order on the spot. Horrible service, zero management, and low-quality food prep. Save your golden time & money and go somewhere else. Definitely not a place where I'd want my food prepared!

In the meantime I ordered an iced coffee (which was delicious!!!!) and sat down and watched folks come and go. This is clearly a popular local coffee and snack shop so I will keep this place in mind since it's locally owned and operated and their decaf is processed via osmosis, not chemicals. That's a big plus.

It's quintessentially Hawai'i. For dessert, grab a coco puff or chocolate cream puff (or two, or three...) for to-go. Their other desserts are quite as exciting, imo. Overall, I think their breakfast is the best bet and their fried rice is also great. Huge bowls of saimin as well. Where they get iffy is lunch/dinner like fried chicken, prime rib, etc. They do make a good (and HUGE) BLT on a croissant. Can't miss this! In between East and westbound Nimitz next to Tokyo Joe's steakhouse. Parking is around all four sides of the building but can be hard to find a space during busy hours (9-11am).
