Probably the best hollandaise sauce and the best home Freud potatoes in HB. So, if you already been to Sugar Shack for their Sausage Egg and Cheddar Breakfast Burrito, then head next door to No Ka Oi for the Eggs Benedict. They're awesome; try them with grilled spam substituted for Canadian bacon. The house potatoes are dropped in the fryer with red onion, red&green bell pepper, and carrot. Those are fantastic too. read more

EVERY TIME I'm in HB this is my MUST-GO to spot! I only get one of two dishes from their EXTENSIVE menu; Moco Locos (or Loco Mocos) or the Eggs Benedict. I've had both from other places but I find myself wanting Mo Ka Oi's Service as far as the servers are top notch. They are the HB vibe that makes this one of the most popular restaurants on Main Street. The sights from inside and outside are so HB calming read more

Always our go to for great food, drinks and service here in downtown Huntington Beach. Love to sit outside for brunch and watch all the people or sit at the bar. At least once if not twice a month we are stopping in. read more

Met a friend for lunch today and couldn't have asked for a better Huntington Beach afternoon -- sunny, warm, and perfect for grabbing a table outside. The patio alone puts you in a good mood. I went with the spicy ahi bowl, and it was a solid choice. Fresh, good flavor, nothing over the top but consistently strong. Portion was big enough that I even had leftovers for the next day, which is always a bonus. Presentation was clean and inviting, aka cool slanted bowl. My buddy ordered the California burrito...or "the Stoner burrito (fries inside)" as my kids call it -- and he seemed pretty happy with it. Good size, hearty, and disappeared fast. Service was friendly and relaxed, exactly what you expect from a beach spot. Overall, just a great place to sit outside, enjoy the day, and appreciate the beauty of Huntington Beach while having a good meal. Would come back. read more

No Ka Oi - Spicy Ahi Bowl - Hawaiian Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

10.3.25: I was visiting a friend who lives down here and she comes here on a regular and said I had to try it. It's California so I already knew parking was going to be difficult, not to mention it's the weekend of the air show. However, we found parking in a near by garage, which was just a short walk across the street to the restaurant. When we walked in, my friend wanted to sit at the bar, so we did. She saw her friend Charlie was working and he was our server. He was pretty laid back and friendly. My friend ordered us the edamame as an appetizer and it was really good. It took a while for it to arrive, but when it did, it was hot, spicy, and garlicky. It was pan fried with some really yummy spices. As for entrees, I ordered the Aloha Bowl with tofu and my friend ordered the same but with broccoli beef. It also comes with 2 fried vegetable spring rolls. My tofu bowl full of flavor and decently sized too. The spring rolls were a nice addition and were fried well done. I would order the tofu bowl again. Ambience wasn't too busy and the general feel I get from the place is that they are super laid back and run on island time, if you know what I mean. Since we're right on the beach, this Hawaiian inspired spot was perfect for lunch. read more

Stopped by No Ka Oi for breakfast on a Sunday, and the whole area was buzzing with people out for football Sunday. We decided to sit in the back patio area, which was a lot quieter and more relaxed than the lively indoor section filled with game-day energy. Our server, Sara, was friendly and attentive. We ordered a margarita, frittata, and the Kilauea eggs benedict. The atmosphere was pleasant, and the outdoor seating was a nice spot to enjoy the morning. The food and drink were good, but nothing that stood out as exceptional. Still, it was an enjoyable visit overall. I'd like to come back on a calmer day to give it another try and explore more of the menu. read more

No Ka Oi - Hawaiian Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

Ehh will not come back. The service sucked, everyone was just hanging out and chit chatting. You have to really flag people down because if it's not their table then no one cares. It was slow and not that much people inside the restaurant but we barely got help. It took some time to flag someone down for a knife for my pancakes. The food was mehh as well. It was alright food with higher beach food prices. For the price and service we receive, there are many other better options in the area. Since it was slow, not sure why it took sooo long to get our food and check. I got the macadamia pancakes with bananas and it literally tasted like regular plain pancakes, nothing special but almost $20. read more

No Ka Oi - Loco moco with potatoes and macadamia pancakes with bananas - Hawaiian Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

One of the best if not the only place to eat Loco Mocos. I have been coming here for years! I never seem to tire on the juicy patties with white rice. Also great bloody Mary's and Mimosas at this location The staff is nice and respectful at this establishment. Restrooms are kept clean. Nice Ambiance both indoor and outdoor! We usually stay outside patio, we get to see unusual people walk by lol. Overall, the best place to eat Breakfast for me. This is a must try. Parking lot is directly across the street. read more

We were walking around Huntington Beach when our friends decided to meet up with us on Main Street for dinner. We chose this spot, and luckily, it was still happy hour. Our server was excellent--very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. I ordered the Hawaiian Kalua pork sliders. They sounded better than they tasted--just okay. My husband got the fish tacos, which were also pretty mediocre. But to be fair, we probably shouldn't have expected too much from a happy hour menu that includes an alcoholic drink with the entrée. Portions were on the smaller side. The ambiance was nice, though. We sat out on the patio area set up along the street. Our server made the experience more comfortable by turning up the heat lamp and lowering the blinds to block the wind and sun. Overall, great service and a pleasant atmosphere, but the food was just average. read more

My first time here and the service was good. I tried the Eggs Benedict (classic) as I often do at restaurants. However, I didn't care for the hollandaise sauce at all. Much tangier than I'm used to. I had to pick around it. I also went with the hash browns but should have gotten the crisp potatoes like my wife. She got the chorizo Benedict and the chorizo tasted great along with the potatoes. For me, my meal was average at best, so I would definitely avoid the Bennie's if I ever return. read more

No Ka Oi - Mai Thai - Hawaiian Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

1. I love the Hawaiian Buns for the omelette sandwich, and the potatoes were nicely fried! The burrito was huge! 2. The spot has fun casual vibes! It is located by the beach! 3. There are indoor and outdoor seatings! You don't need a host for indoor seating as you can walk in and grab an available table! 4. The staff was friendly and attentive! 5. Parking involves metered street parking, paid parking structures, and paid beach parking! Metered Parking is single line and not compact! Note: There is a fee for credit card transactions! Also, restrooms require a code! Photo: Onolicious Omelette Sandwich and Portuguese Almoco Burrito read more

What can I say awesome place awesome people awesome patrons Dennis is the best just a great place to go to it's kind of like my own cheers

Food was great. Seating was quick for a Sunday morning. Portions were great. My friend ordered her chilaquiles without onion and it came with. My friend is shy and didn't say anything. When the server came to check on us, I had already finished eating. My friend didn't eat hers at all. The server didn't ask why her food was untouched, and my friend didn't speak up. It all went to waste. Bummer that her food didn't come correct as ordered, but mistakes do happen sometimes. read more

Don't go; avoid at all cost. There are a wealth of better choices surrounding this location. I'm going to post a photo of my inedible breakfast which tasted as if someone dumped paprika and chili powder all over the Eggs Florentine. To their benefit they did not charge me for this, but my husband's order was just as bad. This photo was taken after we completed the meal and decided to leave. read more

No Ka Oi - Eggs Florentine - Hawaiian Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

Adding a star to my updated review, because brunch at No Ka Oi was excellent today! They have generous portions, and food was cooked to perfection this morning. I ordered their egg florentine, which was delicious. I love the way they poach their eggs. Hubbie had had their corned beef hash, which was so good! Their corned beef is nice and chunky, with a right amount of crisp. My daughter had their seafood enchilada, which looked delicious as well. Today, we found out that there is a back patio you can sit at as well! It was nice and quiet, we enjoyed our brunch very much. Looking forward to going back and trying one of their many tempting Benedict choices. read more

Do not be deceived by the name. "No ka oi" translates to "the best". Every spot in Hawaii makes an excellent corned beef hash with gravy over it. So if you're an Hawaiian restaurant, you should have great corned beef hash. What i ordered was the worst corned beef hash I've ever had in my life. The corned beef hash in a can is better than what they served. The food had no flavor, it was served cold, the potatoes were the size of blocks that I used to play with in kindergarten, and there was barely any corned beef on the dish. I would give the food 0 stars if I could. We waited over an hour to eat here as well, so it was definitely not worth it. The service was decent he did the best he could for it being busy. the server moved with a sense of urgency. He did give us a small discount us for waiting so long and it was still expensive. As far as the ambiance, the place has outdoor seating so you're eating under a tarp. There are a bunch of flys around, they do have fly traps but it doesn't work. At least they're attempting to do something about the flies. I will never return here. read more

Once again this place did not disappoint! The food here is awesome and huge portions. Priced perfect and service was excellent! Sara took care of us as we walked in and I appreciate her! The sampler platter here is so much food! I grew up on Big Island, Hawaii and this place has as we call the Ono Grindz!! I continue to look forward to eating here everytime I get into HB! read more

Went for breakfast with some friends and we all had their loco moko. It's about as close as we'd get to eating in Hawaii, although their rice was a bit different...but still tasty. Our server was very nice and attentive. I'd recommend them to anyone who'd like to have a "Hawaiian Kine" breakfast! read more

We came again tonight for dinner& were not disappointed. Our server, Allison, was delightful. The food was great, as usual. Vegetable shrimp tempura & pot stickers appetizers Kalbi ribs, pork chops & spicy ahi bowl, all really good This is becoming our new "go to" place. Great food, reasonable prices = a must try place!! read more

Went on a Sunday morning and sat in the back patio. Ordered a Loco Moco and the meat came out not cooked! Waited for awhile to get the waiter's attention and told her. She just took it a way with saying nothing! When she returned nothing said like "sorry about that" and just put the plate down. Well half of the hamburger patty was cooked but still real pink on one side. Waitress never came back to ask. The gravy had no flavor and actually the meat didn't either. So won't go back for that. And waitress not friendly at all. Sad as there are many other places to go on Main Street. read more

Such a chill spot in a beautiful community. The staff was incredibly friendly and quick. We sat ourselves down in the back patio. The mochas were delicious (Tip: refills are on coffee and not on mochas)! The eggs were poached perfectly on both benedicts we ordered. Overall, amazing experience and would recommend anyone in the area stop by for a wonderful brunch service. 5 stars for a lovely weekday experience read more

You great place to eat The service is fantastic The food is beyond words love it try to go there as many times as I can

How is this place still in business? I'm sure they have to have the sales to make the rent! Ordered an egg dish and a sandwich. The egg dish was supposed to be over easy. Was not. Chicken was pounded so thin and cooked so hard it was almost unrecognizable. Asked for mac salad got fries. The kicker was the waitress tried to had me my plate OVER my friend! That's waitress 101 no-no!! Very disappointed. read more

I have been coming here for years. The food is good, service good and location clean. The Enchiladas De Desayuno is AMAZING! The potato enchilada wrapping instead of a corn tortilla elevates the dish! They have cute lil mini mai tais on the happy hour menu. We had an issue when we went a few weeks ago, but the owner, Dennis, was amazing. Quick to respond, very communicative and he made sure we were happy at the end of it all. They have a fairly new waiter, Garrett, who was AWESOME! We love this place! read more

As a Huntington Beach local, I've been coming to No Ka Oi for over a decade, and it's hands-down one of my favorite spots in town. The Mai Tais are an easy 10/10--perfectly balanced and dangerously good. My go-to dish is the loco moco, sumo style, and it's absolutely outstanding every time. The servers here are awesome--friendly, attentive, and they always make you feel like family. The back patio is a hidden gem, and every time I sit out there, it feels like I'm back on the Big Island--laid-back vibes, great atmosphere, and the perfect place to enjoy good food and drinks. Whether you're a local or just visiting, No Ka Oi is the real deal. Consistently great food, amazing drinks, and a welcoming vibe that keeps me coming back year after year. read more

My friend took me here for my birthday breakfast. I was going to tease her I wanted to go to ihop instead, but I'm glad I didn't because this was delicious. Ample seating if you come early aa there's a front patio on the street, interior dining and an outside back patio too. A little pricey, but worth it. Fast friendly service and very enjoyable experience other than the fact people are allowed to bring dogs. One couple's dogs were very territorial and probably should have been left at home because it almost started a fight it was so aggressive. That's the only reason I lowered the stars. It made it very uncomfortable and for the safety of the other customers, the first time the dog acted up they should have been removed. Too dangerous. Otherwise, very nice experience with the other better trained dogs and the heat lamps were nice too. The food is ample and delicious. I don't know what else to say. No wonder it's my friend's favorite. read more

Miss having a Mac Pancake in the states? How about something near the beach? The Mac Pancakes here hit the spot... add coconut syrup and I feel like I'm on the beaches of Waikiki watching the sunrise over looking Diamond Head.... only thing is they should be playing Hawaiian music instead of rock... to keep that local vibe going... of course it is Huntington Beach... hahahaha It's OK... the corn beef hash and eggs brought me back to the islands... read more

I had the Kalua Pua'a Benedict - Wow! This was excellent. I asked the waiter that the eggs not be runny. The cooks made it perfectly! I've asked this of other restaurants, but sometimes they just don't cook it thoroughly. I know, I know, benedict is supposed to have runny eggs. I was thankful that the cooks were able to cook the eggs a bit longer as per my request. Other positives: We were greeted right away - I can't stand when other restaurants take too long just to acknowledge customers. It was a Friday and many of the tables were full, but we were still able to order right away. I appreciate that the menu is unique. After a while, I get tired of the typical eggs, bacon, sausage, and pancakes that most breakfast places have. read more

A group of eight of us came here for Father's Day brunch and sat in the back. Charles was our server and even though it was extremely busy, he was helpful and quick to get our drinks out. We had a few appetizers and then left. My boyfriend found that he had a message on Facebook around 9pm from Charles that he had left his wallet there. Charles took the time to look on Facebook and find my boyfriend's contact information. Charles went above and beyond. We came back this morning (Monday) to get the wallet and have breakfast. Jamie was our server today and she was great too. We are local and will definitely be coming here more often. read more

I'll give 4 stars here because my mac nut pancakes were quite delicious. We were not planning to eat here but the restaurant next door had a crazy long wait and this place had open tables and we were hungry so we ended up here. Service was slow (I noticed they had a hiring sign out so maybe that's why). Our orders were accurate. As I mentioned, mac nut pancakes were great. Breakfast potatoes were also delicious. My friend got some kind of Benedict and said it was great also. Overall, good food, no wait for a table. Good atmosphere. Service just kinda slow. read more

i've been going here with my family for years now! we prefer it over sugar shack next door tbh because it's less busy and their hawaiian themed menu + eggs benedicts are fun. we enjoy sitting on the patio to people watch and enjoy the good weather. the breakfasts are tasty with big enough servings to split or take leftovers home. LOOVE the diner coffee! service can be hit or miss every now and then. i think it depends on who's on schedule and how busy it is, but our most recent visit was great! our waitress was super friendly. keep in mind that there's a 3% "convenience fee" if you pay with card. read more
