I am a huge sucker for good Hawaiian breakfast and was so excited when this place opened up near me. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu, but I recommend coming with friends or family so you can order a variety of dishes to share and try even more! The staff is always friendly and attentive, and the food comes out quickly, making it a great spot for both a relaxed meal or a quick bite. Some of my top picks are the guava French toast, strawberry and crème pancakes, Spam loco moco, and a side of crispy tater tots. Highly recommend!

It's been a while since I had Hawaiian food, so I decided to stop by for breakfast. SERVICE: 4/5 Despite it being a busy weekend morning, the service was impressively quick. We ordered at the counter, found a seat, and our food arrived shortly after. Efficient and hassle-free. FOOD: 4/5 We tried the loco moco plates and the banana macadamia pancakes. The portions were generous and filling. The pancakes were the highlight--not overly sweet, with a perfect fluffy consistency. Definitely a standout dish. ATMOSPHERE: 4/5 The decor is simple and unassuming. While functional, the space can feel a bit cramped during peak times, but it still works for a casual meal. PARKING: 3/5 There is a small parking lot, but it fills up quickly, especially when the plaza gets busy. I had to park across the street and walk over, which wasn't ideal. Plan ahead if you're visiting during peak hours. Overall, a great spot for Hawaiian breakfast with quick service, tasty food, and a relaxed vibe. Just be prepared for tight parking if it's busy.

We've been here before and food left an impressions so we decided to start our new year off here again!! Came here for a quick breakfast and didn't disappoint. Ordered the breakfast burrito with chorizo and bacon, it was so filling I was only able to eat half!! I left the beans it came with because I'm not a fan of beans.. Side order of bacon and tater tots for my child because that's what he loves... he gobbled up his kids pancakes and bacon plus some of the sides!! The ube coffee was deliciously flavored and I enjoyed it! Great way to start our morning fueled up!

There are not too many places where I can find Hawaiian food around here. This store is very casual. You order at the counter first and then sit anywhere you'd like. I ordered the avocado omelette, which was a huge portion. It was stuffed with spinach, tomatoes, mushrooms, and swiss cheese. The avocado had the perfect ripeness. I chose to have a side of home fried potatoes. The potatoes were just ok. I would have preferred them to be crispier. Also had a bite of their musubis and pancakes. The musubi was just as I expected - savory and tasted of spam. As for the pancakes, they were very soft and fluffy. The pancakes outshine the musubis in my opinion. Great for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. The menu has a decent variety of foods for everyone. The parking lot is a bit small and shared with a few other businesses.

I've been really craving some pancakes and thank goodness I found this spot! They offer ube coconut pancakes and it really hit the spot. Coming from Hawai'i, ube pancakes is a must have breakfast/brunch item. The pancake here was absolutely delicious and it really reminded me of home. I highly recommend getting the pancakes! The restaurant has you order at the front. After ordering, you'll get a number to place at your chosen table for the staff to bring out the food to you. The staff members were all really nice :)! It's a small-medium sized restaurant so I could see the tables being filled if it gets busy. I usually see some people waiting outside of the restaurant in the late morning when I drive by/

I came here around 11:30 am on a Sunday. I got really lucky because there were a rush of people that were finished with their meals and cleared out of the restaurant and parking lot. So when I went most of the tables are empty .. thank goodness. The menu is a bit overwhelming as everything sounded delicious. I ultimately decided on the kalua pork omelette with side of potatoes and lavender vanilla coffee. So we pay first, they give you a number and then you sit at a table. There are a few tables inside maybe 8-10 tables and about 2 tables or so outside. Food took about 5-10 mins and was served to our table. The omelette looked like a good size for the price. Flavor was good, but the potatoes lacked some flavor. I had to use ketchup and pepper to flavor it up. The lavender vanilla coffee (I opted without ice) wasn't too bad.. it was strong but I didn't taste much of the lavender though. Overall, good taste and decent portion for the reasonable price. Downside is the inside isn't too big and the parking lot is small and the parking space is small as well. If you come during rush hour prepare to wait and might possibly have to find street parking. I will definitely come back to try the Mac nut French toast and the ube coffee!

Hawaiian food has been on trending in the Yelp search engines and I 100% contributed to that. I was looking for a flavorful, hearty breakfast and Aloha Stacks delivered. You can sit first to review the menu, but then you order and pay at the counter. So many great dishes to choose from and they have written specials around the pay counter so don't miss those too. Started with an Ube Latte which was pretty sweet, slightly creamy, and a nice coffee blend. Keeping on the purple track we got the Ube coconut pancakes which were light and airy and the ube sauce on top brought a nice texture. Next was a classic Loco Moco with burger patty and sunny side egg. The rice underneath was fluffy and the patty cooked and seasoned well. Gravy and that egg just blended in all together in a perfect pairing. Favorite dish was the special beef ribs with the chimichurri sauce as the lunch plate (not on menu yet but there's a sign at the counter when available) Upgrade to fried rice than regular white rice and also comes with a mac salad. The chimichurri on the ribs were so tasty and the ribs charred just right. I even brought the bone home to make sure I could get it all without looking like a savage in public.

This place reminds me of a homey, mom and pop, cozy restaurant where you know the food is made with a lot of comfort. It was my first time here and of course we had to try a few different items. We went for some classics like the ube coconut pancakes and hamburger loco moco plus an order of their special ribs. We also got their ube coffee and Hawaiian coffee. The ube coconut pancakes arrived hot with delicious ube cream on top. It felt like I was eating a warm, soft, pillowy ube hug. The hamburger loco moco was your typical loco moco, but I loved the runny egg on top. The ribs had this amazing chimichurri sauce on top but was a bit chewy for me. A huge plus about this place was the portion sizes were huge yet the prices were on the affordable side. I wasn't too sure what made the coffee Hawaiian, but it tasted great overall. How this place works is you grab a seat, place your order at the counter, they'll give you a number and bring your food out to you. There's also a self serve water station. The people working here are the sweetest and most friendly people ever! Parking is limited here with a handful of businesses and maybe only 20 parking spots.
