Delicious comfort food (I had the gourmet meatloaf), friendly attentive staff, clean non-descript environment, may be a bit pricey for the local crowd.

baked fresh every morning apple scone! All stars for out of the oven ʻonolicious goodness! Nice crust around and softer inside. The inside is not cakey and its not real crumbly. Friends had the denver omelette and tried a bit of it. Its good. Typical of a denver omelette taste and nothing real special. Itʻs on the small size. The bacon and portuguese sausage are comforting complements. The coffee is fresh! Canʻt go wrong with good coffee! Breakfast meals are pricey around $15-20.

After eating so much heavy Hawaii food I was so happy to find this cafe in the hotel. Found the restaurant on the 3rd floor of Ala Moana Hotel, right next to the Dada Salon. It's a cute little cafe. Staff was friendly and got my order out super quick. I ordered an Açaí bowl, minus the coconut and IT HIT THE SPOT!

The BLT Croissant was delicious, it was accompanied with a side salad. Their caramel macchiato was also really tasty.

The breakfast was fantastic! The service was excellent! Clayton was the friendliest and most attentive server ever! So nice and willing to explain the ingredients in the food, he was so proud to talk about his passion for creating great food and it showed! Clayton is truly 5 star!!

We've stayed at the Ala Moana Hotel 3 times this year and have had breakfast at the Dada Cafe several times. We just visited Nov 10-12th had the Strawberry French Toast and Bagel and Lox all three days! The bagel is loaded with Salmon, pepper corns, red onions and cream cheese on both halves. Something we don't get in California bagel shops. The French Toast was the best I've ever had with pillowy soft bread, plenty of whipped cream and strawberries and blueberries. The bread reminded me of Kings Hawaiian bread, it was so soft and sweet. The staff was very friendly and attentive. It's also conveniently located next to the pool. And if you want a morning cup of coffee it's pretty good and beats waiting in the long line at the Starbucks in the lobby.

How sad.... Cashier was raving about how good the açaí bowl is, so I ordered it. What açaí bowl? I barely had any açaí. Either they were lazy to actually make it or their portion is very small . Like what they say out here after every sentence, Disappointing "yea". 2 stars tho cause it was pretty good "yea"

Self care part two... After my salon service at Dada Spa Salon with Marlo and feeling really good why not chill right next door at The Cafe at Dada...yes the cafe is located in Ala Moana Hotel third floor right beside Dada Spa Salon not inside as you may image and is open daily from 7am to 8pm. For those late risers...they serve breakfast all day! Yes Strawberry French Toast, Omelette, Breakfast Sandwich and more though I was looking more at their Vegetarian Pizza, Frankie Pasta but went with Asian Pork Belly Taco and these three tacos is filled with Braised Pork Belly on some fresh lettuce is topped with cilantro and green onions is just a light and refreshing bite that needed no additional sauce as the flavor is just right and I enjoyed thoroughly. Though they have a great selection of grab and go drinks not including crafted coffee, tea and frappe drinks you can grab some alcohol as well making this a place to cheers to I decided to try these cute and tiny Choux Au Craquelin which is like a biscuit cream puff and was just delicious as the filling is not too sweet along with fresh strawberries and raspberries it came with two pieces lol so I shared one with BunBun :-) What a wonderful place to chill or celebrate as this informal cafe serves up some classy yummy bites. Thank you!
We stay at the Ala Moana hotel & love the foods from Dada.Great fish tacos, pastrami sandwich, cream puffs, the "Thai" Iced coffee is good but it is Vietnamese iced coffee, doesn't taste like Thai iced coffee.

We didn't receive the greatest welcome; in fact, no one greeted us when we walked in. The pastrami sandwich was to have provolone on it, but it was another cheese which changed the dynamic of the sandwich for me; the grease on the sandwich was overkill, too. The young lady was nicer towards the end of our meal when we had to pay, and I still gave her a 21% tip. Customer service and deliverance is everything; please work on it.

Although it's casual dining, the food is very tasty, if a little overpriced. The soup and salad that come with the sandwiches was a nice surprise and very good.

I am a travel agent that checks out business and customer service... I am also staying at the Ala moana hotel , first the food wasn't worth the price but I don't mind paying especially since, I'm more concerned of customer service... maybe it wasn't a good day for this young lady but her customer service wasn't good so I was turned off ... customer service needs more attention, because one never knows who one might be... I will be trying other restaurants here as well, but as far as the hotel, it's a beautiful stay so far... I am literally still waiting for my table to be cleared. It's only been 25 minutes, so I need to take back another star. i've

Food is good. But the online menu ordering option only allows ordering drinks, and the phone was not picked up when I called. Please modernize
