A friend of mine once gave me some delicious cream puffs, and I heard that the cheesecake was also delicious, so I came here.
I went around 4pm and was able to get a cheesecake! A rich and heavy mochi cheesecake, matcha raw chocolate and butter mochi.
The cheesecake has a slight scent of lemon and vanilla, and is rich enough to make you want to savor each bite slowly.
I heard that they use locally sourced vanilla beans and eggs, and four types of cheese.
The raw chocolate also tasted like authentic matcha, and I liked the coconut texture and stickiness of the butter mochi.
I had heard that it might be difficult to find the location, but there was a sign in front of the elevator hall from the parking lot, and when I got off at Basement, there was an arrow right in front of me, so I was able to find it easier than I expected.
(When I got off the elevator, there was a nice smell coming from the oven, so just follow that direction and you'll get there.)
The parking lot is located at the top from the Young St side.
15 minutes free.
I'm sure my dad will be happy with this as a souvenir, potluck, or Christmas gift.

Had to look at the building directory board to find out where they were - walked down the stairs to the basement level and there they were - with a very low profile signage.Bought their cheesecake (of course) and some other cold desserts in their refrigerated display case.In my head cheesecake is grouped into 2 types: cheesy, solid and heavy, or cream cheesy, soft and fluffy. This cheesecake is definitely the latter - perhaps also known as the soufflé type.Although I prefer the heavy solid type, I did like their cheesecake - it tasted mellow and gentle with a hint of classy vanilla - and not stingingly sweet and loud like the cheaply-made-but-still-expensive cheesecakes too often found everywhere.Their other desserts, unfortunately, were not great. They weren’t bad, but not outstanding. The Mont Blanc - I have to mention - was rather a swirly mound of big disappointment.But their cheesecake - yes, their cheesecake is definitely worth descending into the hospital basement for.
I knew them for incredible cheesecakes, which suit my high standard, but when I tried the other desserts. And now I can easily buy there anything and it will not disappoint me.
Interestingly located in the hospitals basement. We parked next door and walked over. No signs outside til you walk inside next to elevators. The cheesecake has great texture but only okay to me :/ the Lolol panna cotta was the best of the four I ordered to try.
The first time I've heard of Aloha State Bake Shop was when it was featured on YouTube's Amanda&FelixEats channel. Since I was stuck waiting at the Medical Arts Building, I thought I would check this place out. So I head down to the basement level and was surprised on how small, yet cute this dessert shop was. Despite it's small appearance, it offered various grab-and-go kawaii desserts such as cream puffs, cups of pana cotta, tiramisu, pudding, and slices of cheesecake. The black sesame cheese cake drew my attention and I'm glad I got it. It had that regular cheesecake flavor and texture, but with an earthy-nutty flavor, which I enjoyed. It was surprisingly delicious and decadent. It's not overly sweet, like most cheesecakes. I definitely recommend checking this place out and would likely come back to taste the other desserts.
Their cheesecakes are Japanese style, fluffy and very tasty. And the employees are very nice and polite!

My daughter says “the best cheesecake I've ever had” and I cannot agree more! This cute little pastry is located on the NE corner of Kings st. and Victoria st. which is about 10 mins drive from Waikiki beach. The building is easy to find but the shop is hidden inside. I recommend to take the stairs from the parking lot (see attached pic) and go downstairs to get there. The owner and staff there were super friendly and made our vacation extra special! Try Hojicha pudding if you are a tea lover like me :-)
A hidden sweets shop that is not listed in guidebooks, only known to locals and Hawaii connoisseurs. The kids loved the cheesecake and shortcake, and the adults loved the roasted green tea pudding! It was easy to find by walking down the stairs in the back parking lot of a building on the northwest corner of King Street and Victoria Street. This is our new Oahu must-see spot!
Hidden little shop with lots of potential.
