I love that there's such an awesome sandwich truck downtown! There's definitely not enough yummy…read moresandwiches on island!!! The lady at the register was super duper nice and aw so friendly! She made the experience super enjoyable :) I'm glad I went with a friend as we got to try two of their yummy sandwiches! When we went, they are offering different kinds of sandwiches. We got a roast beef and a pesto sandwich. -The roast beef sandwich was definitely our favorite. The bread so toasted and also fluffy. The sauce they had on the sandwich was just so terrific and onolicious!! We devoured it so fast, I can't remember what else was in it other than it was so freakin awesome! -The pesto sandwich was good too but definitely not as memorable as the roast beef. I can't remember exactly what type of meat it was (possibly turkey?). The pesto sauce was good and they put pickled onions in this sandwich so so Ono!!!

They don't necessarily have a set menu so your best bet is to check out their Instagram page to see where they will be and what will they be serving. My favorite sandwich thus far is their po'ipu (turkey, sun-dried tomatoes, and pesto). The bread they use is foccacia which will fill you up pretty quickly. And because they usually operate during work day hours, it is best that you just eat half of the sandwich to avoid that afternoon crash. Prices for these sandwiches may be on the higher side but the quality of the food makes up for it. This food truck is definitely worth checking out. Make sure you follow their Instagram account and see where they will end up. Pro tip: turn on that notifications to see where they are and head there before the lunch rush appears.

I have been here twice for a quick bite and the food tasted fresh both times. Located in Kakaako…read morenear a few other small food locations, this small chain cafe is good for a quick snack. There are a few small tables inside and out for seating, and there are a few parking garages nearby for free. I ordered the Lychee Lemonade, the French Dip, and Planted Butter Mochi Kouign Amann. Overall a bit pricy, but the food was delicious! The drink was refreshing but may be too sweet for some.. The pastry had the perfect amount of sweetness and crispy/flakiness- but I wish I could've had it heated up a bit! I wasn't sure about the French dip when ordering it, but it was really good! The dip had good flavor that complimented the beef and bread perfectly! It did take about 10-15 minutes to come out of the kitchen though- I had to refrain from eating the entire Kouign Amann while waiting.

The last time I came here it was only plant based options so was nice to see a bit of a mix now!…read more I ate inside, it was clean and quiet. I was the only one there. The burger was good, and I'm glad I ordered the sauce on the side because it wasn't my favorite and happy to skip on those added calories. The fried green tomatoes were just ok...they were kind of bland and you didn't get many of them... 4 to be exact. The sauce that came with those was ok... I liked it better than the burger sauce. The person taking my order was friendly. I'd come back and try something else on the menu for a quick bite.

Food is amazing- just like a street sandwich in Italy (sometimes as low as 2 euro in Italy but this…read moreis Hawaii so that translates to $26. But who's counting!) Service? Think Seinfeld Soup Nazi. It does ruin the experience eventually. Eventually you'll get run down from the treatment by staff, the wait times, the cost, and the fact that they're NEVER open and you'll give up on this place, like the rest of us who tried damn hard to be regulars. I've recommended them to tons of people but I've stopped because everyone has a bad experience, and I've leaved to stop trying to go myself because they're never open basically and even if they're are I can't be sure I can get food within my timeframe, even with preordering over an hour out. Besides all that, it's a great expensive sandwich if they'll let you purchase one. I wish they'd listen to the reviews about how their system and service are off putting. We're trying to buy your VERY EXPENSIVE food, can't you meet us halfway??

I checked the app and saw that the next available pickup time was about an hour and a half away, so…read moreI scheduled my order before heading to the gym around 12:30 PM. About 10 minutes before my 2:00 PM pickup time, I received a text letting me know my order was ready, which was a nice surprise. I ordered the IL Parma sandwich, and it was absolutely delicious. At $24, it's definitely on the expensive side for a sandwich, but the quality of the ingredients and the freshness made it worth every penny. The flavors were fantastic, and I didn't mind paying the premium price after taking that first bite. Parking can be a little tricky. I'm not sure whether customers are allowed to use the Hana Koa parking lot for quick pickups, but a kind employee allowed me to park there while I ran in to grab my order. There are only a few parking spaces directly in front of Bocconcino, so that's something to keep in mind. There's some tables under a covered area, right next to the store. Many people were seated there talking story and enjoying drinks. Overall, a great experience and an excellent sandwich. I'll definitely be back for another Italian sandwich!

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.
