In sports, it's always tough to compare the greats across different eras. I've been fortunate enough to watch legends from the early '90s through today, and every generation has its own "GOATs." That said, I don't care what era we're talking about; Waffle and Berry is the GOAT of breakfast. I actually found myself looking into the kitchen, wondering if my grandma was back there making those incredible homemade grits. Every bite tasted like comfort and home. I had the Shrimp & Grits Bowl, and it was outstanding. And shoutout to the beef sausage... Absolutely delicious! From the moment we arrived before the doors opened until the time we left, the owner and the entire team were outstanding. The hospitality was genuine, the food was exceptional, and they even went out of their way to make the experience extra special for our 2-year-old and our 8-year-old. We're visiting from St. Louis, and this was easily one of the highlights of our trip. Thank you for the amazing food, the warm hospitality, and the memories. We'll definitely be back....before we leave. If you're looking for breakfast, stop comparing stats; this place is the undisputed GOAT. read more

The high rating this restaurant receives raised my expectations too high. The waffles come with great toppings (and ice cream), but the waffles themselves are just ok. Fine place for a sweet breakfast, but moderate your expectations. Had the chocolate waffle, waffle with berries, and Aussie waffle (Nutella/banana/strawberry). Limeade and lemonade were good (can get sparkling or flat), but they tasted virtually identical. read more

Waffle and berry is one of my favorite spots for an acai bowl! The acai is more of a sherbet texture rather than a smoothie texture, so it's more thick. There's a topping station where you can add toppings like chia seeds and honey to the acai bowl too. It's unlimited! Mr. C, the man that runs the place, is also super kind and welcoming. Whenever I bring a new person, he offers them a sample of the acai so they can try it before deciding what to get. Waffle and berry is in the middle of Waikiki. You'll have to go down some stairs to find it, but it's worth hunting down to try! [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's lots of seating available and a turtle in a tank in the store to keep you company while you enjoy your sweet treat.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Waffle and Berry - Acai Bowl - Waffles Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

As always, really great experience! When doing my monthly morning walk into Waikiki, this place is such a great stop for a cool, sweet, delicious and (maybe) healthier (?) treat. In this case, my brunch! Delish food and all served with a smile from the happy workers. Acai Bowl with waffles, topped with bananas, strawberries and blueberries. Then you can self-add other toppings like coconut, chocolate bits, honey... yum! Been coming here now and then and never disappointed. I'm hooked... zzzzZZZttt! read more

New to the menu, gumbo! We were pleasantly surprised that they have added more delicious items. We saw that they had shrimp and grits but we came in the afternoon and that is only served in the morning. Note to self, come back in the morning for shrimp and grits! Their afternoon menu has the gumbo. This delicious meal comes with a generous portion of chicken, shrimp, sausage, rice, and incredible corn bread. Where to start? Each bite of this new menu item was so good! The chicken was super tender. The shrimp was perfectly cooked, not over done. The sausage adds more flavor to an already tasty bowl of goodness. There is a nice kick to this, as it should. And the corn bread....Honey, this is SO wonderful as a perfect compliment to the hearty gumbo. Thank you so much. We will be back in the morning for some shrimp and grits!! With an acai bowl to go :) read more

Berry Fact: A true berry comes from one flower with one ovary. When meeting up with a colleague, she told me firmly, that while acai bowls originated in Brazil, they are a massive staple in Hawaii's food culture and considered a must-try, iconic snack there. Hawaii popularized the version widely found in the USA, adding local toppings like papaya, lilikoi, and macadamia nuts to the frozen blended berry base. And she recommended the best place. They frequently top the "Yelp's Best..." lists! I got to meet the gentleman behind the business, Cal. He's sweet, humble, and has a great personality. As for the waffle and acai bowl: It was spoonful after spoonful of tasty eats. At one point, I started topping my waffle with my acai bowl. It's that brunch combination that pairs warm, crispy waffles with cold, thick, and refreshing acai smoothie toppings that makes it oh so alluring. The combination offers a contrast in textures and temperatures and textures (fruit, granola, nuts, and drizzled honey) that makes it moreish. Just typing about it now makes my mouth become a waterfall. Pop in if you're in the Waikiki area! If you're not in the area, it's still well worth a visit if you're in need of some healthy eats and carbs. read more

My wife and I had breakfast at Waffle and Berry after hearing about its awards. It did not disappoint. My wife ordered a half order of waffles and I ordered the breakfast special with soft scrambled eggs and smoked sausage, substituting waffles for the French toast, which I thoroughly enjoyed.

Ordered the açaí bowls and the waffle with berries- the açaí bowl was as expected, and the waffle and berries per my husband were alright. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Short on seating inside so we found seating nearby which was comfortable[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. The food was made promptly. Not a lot of drink options unfortunately, and the service was pretty uptight, bordering on rude. It's Waikiki but...the service didn't impress me. Would try it again, maybe later. read more

First time here and so happy we stumbled across this place! Excellent food and even more amazing service! 5 stars all the way around.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but this is the best açaí bowl I have ever had in my life, and it is not even close. It is also the best thing I have had on my one-week trip to Hawaii. Let me start by saying I visited this place two years ago and made it my mission to come back. Since my group of nine decided to book a trip to Hawaii, this was the first thing I added to the itinerary. And again, it did not disappoint. The service is top tier. The busser saw our large group come in and asked if we wanted to sit at a table we were eyeing, then cleaned it off for us and added extra seating so all of us could fit. The cashier was also very nice, and once your order is ready, the workers explain the toppings bar so you can dress your açaí bowl however you want (coconut flakes, granola, honey, chia seeds, etc.). I got the regular açaí bowl, and again, it is the best açaí bowl I have ever had. The açaí is thick and very rich, and you can tell the blend is real açaí and the berries on top are fresh. The topping bar is a great touch because you can customize it to your liking. It is sweet but not overly sweet or artificial tasting. It also takes a long time to melt, so you can take your time eating it. We also got a couple waffles on the side, and those were good too. read more

It's located at the basement of the Waikīkī mall. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's an open seating outside of the shop and it was very busy for a Tuesday morning.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We ordered a banana and whip cream waffle and waited outside for it to arrive.

This was close to our hotel so one day during our vacation, we came here for breakfast. We were heading to the beach after so we didn't want it to be something heavy. My partner and I opted to share the "Berries and Cream" with no whipped cream since it already has vanilla ice cream on it. It was good and light. At first, I thought it was weird to have ice cream on something like this and to have it for breakfast, but I guess it works out well. The staff was nice. They really get packed even on weekdays. Price is a little on thr higher side. read more

Waffle and Berry - Berries and Cream. No whipped cream - Waffles Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Great food. Wonderful staff with awesome service. We got in at the perfect time, only 2 customers in front of us. Right after we ordered the line was out the door. We had the clouds of cream, which is an acai layered with whipped cream and fruit in a tall glass. We opted for banana and blueberry. I still say they have the best acai on the island. The last few places we went to for acai it was already soup by the time we got it. W&B's acai stays frozen all the way. Also got the breakfast with waffle and grits. I haven't had real grits for a very long time. And it really hit the spot. I love mine with butter and lots of pepper. The beef sausage was so tasty and so was the scrambled eggs. I was full all day. Cal and his staff is simply amazing, don't miss this spot. read more

You would almost think, it's tourist area and it's all over priced and not tasty. NOT TRUE. Food 5/5 Service 4/5! Ambiance 4/5! It was hit, humid but it was fine and acceptable. The cream was home made you can just taste it. Fruits fresh, grits spot on, everything tasted great along with the lemonade. It's freshly made! It is not the minute maid stuff around here. Service was great, when I was putting in the order at the counter, the girls were SO informative and gave me recommendations and explained to me about the dishes that are popular and some were tourist inspired items! I also wish I saw the GUMBO. I would have gotten that if I saw it!! Decor was cute all around with photos etc. this spot has plenty of tables for smaller parties but they made it work for us for a party of 6! Thank you for everything! I recommend this spot! read more

Can't complain about a combination of some of my favorite things: açaí, fresh fruit, and waffles! The service at Waffle and Berry was so great and they offer modifications which is great. The waffles usually come with ice cream, but we substituted it for acai for something less heavy. The best part was unlimited toppings including coconut, granola, chia seeds, cacao nibs, and honey. Delicious! We got the Hutch, which was plenty of food for two people. read more

Waffle and Berry made it to the top 100 Yelp reviews. It was conveniently located on the same street as our Pearl Harbor pick up as well. The restaurant is on the basement floor, accessible by escalator or elevator. Tables are first come, first serve. You order at the counter, there will likely be a line as it is popular, and they bring out you. The menus is waffles and açai bowls. They have a side of scrambled eggs and sausage. There is a side table with topping, granola, honey, chocolate chips, etc. they do not offer any alcohol, but some virgin breakfast "cocktails". My friend and I split the berries and cream, getting the vanilla ice cream on the side to keep the waffle crisp, and a side of eggs and sausage. Everything was delicious. The waffle, despite the look, was not overly sweet, and with the ice cream in the side it was easy to add just a little sweetness. The waffle was so good it did not need syrup. The best waffle I've had in the US. Eggs and sausage were so good, nice savory side. read more

To be quite frank, I'm not sure what's the hype about Waffle and berry. It's located in the same underground food court as maguro bros. Upon entering the cafe, it had a really offputting scent that was kind of repulsive to me, like wet towel. I really wanted açaí bowl so I tried to not let it bug me but I would say I'm quite sensitive to smell. We ordered the açaí and the half size of the Nutella banana waffle. Basic food with expensive price points. I would say California açaí bowls are much better in terms of valuable and options. I liked that they had the granola, honey, chia seeds, chocolate chips, and coconuts at a side table so that you can put as much as you'd like. Because of the scent, we sat outside in the communal table area. It was decent but nothing special worth nothing. read more

Waffle and Berry is located downstairs across from Maguro Bros. The shop is huge with lots of seating available. I will say that there was a funky smell though, so my wife and I ordered for take out and ate at one of the communal tables outside. Acai Bowl - Wow, something so different about the texture of their acai! It was frozen, but soft and creamy at the same time. Not icy like some other places. The bowl comes with standard fruits but you can add granola, honey, chia seeds and coconut flakes at their self-serve counter yourself. Peanut butter banana - I personally thought there was too much peanut butter and not enough banana. The center was all soggy with peanut butter sauce. Overall, the service was excellent, the staff was super friendly, and I would come back for their acai bowls. read more

The acai bowls and waffles here are so good. The acai has more of a sorbet texture, which I actually love, and I really appreciate that they let you add your own toppings. The topping bar is stacked with honey, granola, cacao nibs, coconut flakes, and chia seeds, and you can add as much as you want, which is always a win. The waffles are another highlight. They are perfectly crisp on the outside, soft on the inside, and have this sweet, nostalgic flavor that just hits right. The shop itself is spacious with plenty of seating, so it never feels cramped, and the staff is consistently friendly and welcoming. Definitely a spot I keep coming back to. read more

Waffle and Berry is a must have when visiting Hawaii!! I've never been a fan of acai bowls, because the ones I've tried have either been too icy, artificial. I was hesitant to try acai bowls again, but after coming here I'm so obsessed now! Their acai bowl + waffle combo was insane, the texture of the acai was so thick and creamy! No ice chunks. This is the best bowl I've ever had, also love the toppings added too! It goes so well with peanut butter. You also get a waffle on the side, our friend was really interested in the fruity pebbles waffle and asked if they could upgrade it. At the first the worker (forgive me if I'm wrong, I believe her name was Kayla!) said they couldn't, but she said you know what...let me see what I could do. She was able to upgrade it for us, and was so kind and sweet. We were actually there to celebrate ur friends birthday and she treated us so nicely before even knowing! Once she found out about the birthday, she brought out a candle for us. Such a great experience and this is one of my go-to spots now whenever I'm in Hawaii. Highly recommend for the amazing food and service! read more

I normally don't care for waffles, but after coming to this place, I left wanting more! I was indecisive with choosing a flavor, so I'm so glad they offered half sizes so we could try multiple flavors - this was the perfect size for my parents and I, and they loved it too! We got their peanut butter banana and berries & cream, both come with a generous scoop of ice cream. Personally I liked the peanut butter banana better because I enjoy that flavor pairing, but you honestly can't go wrong with any of their flavors. Not only is their food delicious, but their service was outstanding (and the main reason why I wanted to write this review). Unfortunately, I forgot to ask for their names, but they were so friendly when helping me pick out a waffle flavor, they made sure my family had extra plates to share and they even had complimentary coffee and water. Inside the restaurant, it was very clean, had AC, and the perfect place to hang out with friends. I can't wait to come back here and would highly recommend to everyone! read more

The waffles and acai here are SOO amazing!! We ordered the peanut butter with guava jam waffles and the waffles were super delicious and the perfect texture with crisp around the edges with yummy vanilla ice cream. A little hard to taste the guava flavor but so good regardless.

The toppings included super fresh fruit and yummy granola. read more

Came here for breakfast. Shared an Açaí bowl and added a side of waffle with peanut butter and almost Nutella. You can add your own toppings (from the toppings bar) for the açaí, which is nice to personalize how you like your açaí. In my opinion, the açaí was a tad on the sweeter side but it wasn't enough to make me not like it. Service was good and the restaurant was cute. We sat next to a turtle tank and got to watch the lady feed them. read more

Overall great experience and would definitely come back, maybe even before my current trip is over. I'd just stick to the signature waffles and açaí next time though. Details below. Originally I was just looking for a new açaí spot to try, but saw this place had really great reviews and even made 4th on Yelp's top places to eat in the US, so I got my friends to come try it with me. Line was moderately long and we waited maybe 15 minutes, which was fine with me since it gave my group time to figure out what we wanted. We even managed to snag a table in the front of the restaurant since a family decided to move for more space. I recommend having someone in your party claim one as soon as they can since this place is popular. It was helpful that they had large versions of their menu posted in a couple places. We wanted to try everything so we got an açaí bowl, eggs and sausage, and one of their signature waffles. The star of our meal was definitely the signature waffles. The lady who helped us with our order recommended the chocolate chip banana since it had less overlap with the ingredients of the açaí bowl. The waffle was crispy on the outside and fluffy in the middle and had a decent thickness. Bananas looked to be the amount of ripeness I prefer with no dark spots, and the chocolate sauce was served on the side, which helped it not get soggy too fast. I'll admit the ice cream wasn't amazing, but it was the perfect pairing for the chocolate and provided a great backdrop for the warmth of the waffle. I also thought the dollop of whipped cream on top was more than appropriate. Second place would be the açaí bowl. I've had this at a handful of other establishments, with a couple of them being in Hawaii, and what made this stand out to me was the texture. It was really smooth and somewhat dense, and was served at a temp that kept it from melting too fast, which made it easy to share. All the fruit was fresh as well. Third place goes to the eggs and sausage. While the eggs were nicely cooked and the green onions were a nice bright touch, they weren't anything spectacular. The same could be same about the sausage as well. I added these to our meal though so we could have something savory to balance out the sweets. I somewhat expected this too since eggs and sausage aren't found anywhere in the name of the place. What confirmed for me why they were on the top 100 Yelp list though was the service. Remember that family I mentioned that moved? Well one of the staff members came and started dropping off some food on our table, thinking we were that family. Given we had never been there, we thought it was our food too, but we soon realized that it wasn't and let him know. He seemed so genuinely upset at himself even though it wasn't his fault, and the family even noticed and the mom came over immediately to rectify the situation. We let her know we didn't touch the food and she reassured the worker that it was okay and that he can just bring the food over to their new table. Coming from working in restaurants, I know that once food hits a table it's proper to made new food, but I think the family and my group new that would be such an unnecessary waste of food and didn't want the kids to wait even longer for their food, so we made it clear that we were fine if that didn't happen. He apologized profusely, even after we said it was okay, so that to me shows how much the workers here care about getting things right, which I feel should be felt across all customer service establishments. read more
