Would have to come back to this place for sure. I intentionally came here for their coffee, and left wanting to try their food. I got the iced vanilla latte and my husband got the caramel macchiato. Loved the vanilla latte, so refreshing and naturally sweet. The lady said something about using honey instead of sugar. The caramel macchiato tastes delicious as well, although I couldn't really taste the caramel flavor. We went at a time when it was semi-busy. We mobile ordered our drinks so it was ready by the time we got there. It comes in these reusable pouches, which I thought was so cute. you'll definitely get asked where you got those drinks from, which I have happily directed them to this business. Will definitely come back to try their noodles and fried rice! read more

Both the food and service at sweet corner were unmatched. The noodles were quite flavorful, and Chelsea's kindness made it that much better! Mahalo for a wonderful lunch experience! read more

I rarely leave yelp reviews but this one was a no brainer. Being gluten and dairy free, anytime I travel the first thing I do is research the best places I can eat. This place has glowing reviews so we came by to give it a try, and loved it so much we came back again the next day! The location is super unassuming, we thought we were lost at first until we found and followed the signs. The first day we came it was pretty busy, we decided to opt for take out and the service from Chelsea was incredible. We came back again on a Saturday and didn't even know they have CAT-URDAYS where the owners cat hangs out in the cafe which was the best surprise ever Over both days we ended up getting the orange chicken, coconut shrimp, spring rolls and bubble waffle. Everything was gluten free and SO SO amazing. We were shocked at the high quality and level of care they put into their food -- mostly organic and gf whenever possible. They use avocado oil and tapioca for breading. The iced teas were all incredible also. Chelsea is such a sweetheart and took time with each customer. We really love when a place puts heart and soul into what they do and this spot definitely does. read more

First things first--Chelsea is awesome!! It was a little difficult to find the place at first but the sign placement definitely helped. It was down the alley past the doggy daycare and hoops 4 Christ. The dining experience was unique, and I would highly recommend this place to anyone. The food was very good, but the service was amazing. Chelsea was extremely attentive and helpful at letting us know all about the menu and ingredients. She was also so friendly and made sure everyone in the dining room felt taken care of, even if she was busy! She also went out of her way to accommodate food preferences and learn our names. Such a delightful person! She has the same name as my sister and even told me to tell her "hi". Will be bringing my Chelsea over to eat here in the near future!! read more

DEFINITELY returning to this little hidden gem tucked away in the Halawa industrial area! We enjoyed the orange chicken and gyoza with garlicky noodles and corn cheese on a stick - even ordered freshly baked chocolate croissant and Portuguese egg tarts for take away desserts. The sweets were still warm from the oven...*faint*! What made the experience more so enjoyable is all due to Chelsea - her sunshiney and high energy puts the "Sweet" in this little cafe's name. Looking forward to bringing a few friends and trying some other items soon. read more

The food here is really great. The waitress Chelsea is super cute and really makes the experience.

This place is beyond amazing, with the best service me and my friend had ever received. As waitresses ourselves it was clear to see that our server enjoys her job and knows how to make customers feel appreciated and cared for. She knew the menu like the back of her hand. She is an outstanding character which makes her stand out. The drinks were also amazing, and because of our servers fantastic personalized recommendations we tried the iced raspberry black tea, iced matcha latte, caramel macchiato and I believe the iced peach black tea. They have a huge drink selection so there is a little something special for everyone. Everything was spot on and we will definitely be coming back. To anyone who's interested in coming I definitely suggest that you do, it is a small space and the location might be a little skeptical but don't let that stop you from visiting this hidden gem! The food will leave you satisfied, the drinks will leave you quenched and the service alone will make you come back for more. read more

This little place is well hidden but has been in business since August. You have to figure any place this hard to find that stays in business must be good. There are 3 smallish tables available for dining in but they seem very efficient with take-out orders. Today is a "cat day". The cat is in its own fully enclosed net tent. The woman manning the front is busy as all get out catering to customers, taking orders, etc. They make their own wrappers for the gyoza using organic ingredients and grass-fed beef for the filling. read more

Sweet Corner Cafe - Freshly baked croissant drizzled with chocolate - Comfort Food Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

This spot is definitely tucked away, but when you make your way back, you won't regret it! It's quaint and Chelsea kept the show moving with a warm smile, even while running the front of house all on her own and accommodating for the many people who came in for takeout. My husband and I drove straight from the airport and were hungry. We had the gyoza, orange chicken and poke bowl and everything was delicious! She learned our names, and everyone else's, and thanked us numerous times for coming to visit. She even sent us with an ice tea lemonade drink to go that had hibiscus and local honey. Yum! All to say, the experimence was lovely and we'll likely return on trips in the future. read more

This was a great experience and amazing food!! Chelsea is the owner and served me and my family amazingly. This small little hole in the wall is great for small groups and if you want to take a big group call ahead. Chelsea is a genuinely caring and beautiful person. Please respect her generosity and authentic personalty. The food is amazing and if you are gluten free and love organic food this is the spot to eat at!! read more

A little hole in a wall cafe in Halawa Heights, Cute and simple. Now if you are new here, just like me look at the Menu in yelp. The menu varies from breakfast and dessert, pokes, lunch/ dinner menu. Ice/Hot coffees, teas. Your server is also the person who will be making your food, as I said make sure order ahead, you can also dine in if you want to. I bought 3 Portuguese Egg Tart: sweet custard and very flaky crust not to egg flavor which I was afraid of but it was well balance, the vegetarian spring rolls are good, make sure you eat it right away it's nice and crispy and not oily which I expect from a spring roll, now they do have sweet chili sauce for you to dip your spring rolls, Ice cinnamon latte was sweet for my taste wanted to try it since it's cinnamon.. All I can say is that I am coming to try other item from this place. Server is very friendly person even though she is busy getting the online order ready she makes time to smile and make you feel welcome. read more

I follow Food Fiend on YouTube and I was amazed to discover Sweet Corner Cafe through Misty's Halawa finds video. I live in Halawa Heights so I'm always looking for unique and tasty grinds in my area. I made the decision to check them out last night. Right off the bat, let me just say that Chelsea is an amazing person who will make you feel welcome, even as she takes your phone order. I decided on the BBQ baby back ribs with fried rice, a shoyu tofu poke bowl, a couple of custard tarts, and an iced vanilla latte for my wife. She let me know that it would take a while to prepare my food as they make everything to order, and I would receive a text when everything was ready. Half an hour later I receive the text and jumped in my car. Note: I've been to a few restaurants on Iwaena Street in the past but this was a first to find a restaurant on Halawa Valley Road. It's a little spooky at night so if you're not familiar with the area, drive carefully. The cafe is on your right as you drive down Waiua Pl. and if you see the Pint Size ice cream factory at the end of the street, you know you're near. There is limited parking along the side of the driveway but on this evening there was a container trailer parked so I didn't want to chance driving down. I just parked above street-side. Walk down the driveway and there's a sign directing you to the cafe. Go down the well-lit hallway and you've arrived. The restaurant is a quaint little place, clean as a others have mentioned, and decorated with cute figurines and artwork. Ring the bell and Chelsea will come out to greet you. She showed my the food packed in the container - looked great and wrapped them and the beverages for me. She kept on thanking me for checking them out - such a sweetie! Oh by the way, she gave me a peach tea on the house. At home my wife and I couldn't wait to dig in. The tofu poke was very tasty - just a subtle shoyu sauce and onions over white rice. My wife really liked it. Chelsea said they make their tofu in-house. The ribs were great as well: Four tender pieces in that I suspect was a shoyu and five spice glaze presented over a bed of mixed greens. I enjoyed their version of fried rice which had bacon and just a wee bit of szechuan spiciness. My wife really liked the vanilla latte and I enjoyed the refreshing iced peach tea. The dan tans were amazing (I wish I had more, hehe). These are Macau style in puff pastry with the custard browned just a bit. They pass the Asian dessert test: "Not too sweet." Great food and super service. I really want Sweet Corner Cafe to thrive in my corner of the universe. Check them out, you'll be glad you did. read more

1st of all, I LOVE finding new hidden gems in the local area and supporting small businesses. This pet-friendly cafe may be fairly new but they already understand the assignment! Chelsea is such an angel! Her warm, welcoming personality and sweet demeanor is one other restaurants could learn from (I used to be a waitress so trust, I know...). I ordered a chicken sausage breakfast combo, gyoza (they hand make them, fried noodles (hey make these too, a bubble waffle, and a peach white tea (I think it was peach). Almost all of their ingredients are organic, and your food is made to order so you will have a little wait but it's worth it. While I was waiting, I got to sample a fresh croissant and a different type of iced black tea, which was really good! The venue is small and tucked away so use your GPS but I'm suspecting if they keep up this amazing service, they will grow out of that location pretty quickly! I will definitely be returning . Thanks again ladies! read more

This is the definition of a hidden gem... we were unsure at first as we walked down the hallway, went through the doorway and rang the little smiley faced bell on the counter. Then our whole morning became such an unforgettable experience ... the server was the sweetest person. She explained the menu items, ingredients and the care that went into making the food. The drinks were served in reusable bags, Do NOT skip out on the plantation tea... DELICIOUS!!! Everything we had exceeded our expectations and tasted delicious. The food was hot, fresh, perfectly seasoned and some of the best we have had on Oahu! We are definitely going to make this a regular breakfast spot! There was not one thing we could think of that we would have had a negative opinion of... just all positive...This restaurant was very clean and delicious, with wonderful service! We had: chicken and bubble waffle, eggs, bacon with rice, gyoza, house noodles (with all of the delicious sauces) ... we were also able to try some other tea which was soo good! read more

Sweet Corner Cafe - Fried gyoza with fried noodles - Comfort Food Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

Don't judge this book by its cover! Food was amazing! Our daughter brought us here and we had, admittedly, a little apprehension considering where it is located. Service was very friendly, we hit the lunch rush and had to wait a bit, but I'm telling you these are some ono grinds! The ambiance was the most off setting, it's obvious they just opened and are putting their money into their product. Which, again, was out of this world. We had a few plates which we shared. Bubble waffle w/ chicken House fried rice (my favorite) Spring rolls with a side of the house noodles. Orange chicken. We also had the raspberry and London fog tea as well as the rainbow lemon aid. 100% recommend you give them a try! The bit of patience you bring with you is worth it. read more
