The food is amazing and the service is great. We went Saturday morning for breakfast and they had live music with an amazing view. It's a restaurant where you can find FRESH and local food, you're in Hawai'i, NO RUSH! It takes time to cook fresh food, it's not a FAST FOOD! It's a place to go and have a peaceful and lovely breakfast. Awesome for families and couples. Mahalo for our magic experience this morning.

Food was great, atmosphere was awesome, service was phenomenal. So many little gecko friends to look at here! They definitely kept us entertained, and the view was just gorgeous while eating our breakfast! Forgot to get a picture of our meals because they were just too good! We had the country breakfast and the bagel with a scrambled egg, cream cheese, and bacon on top.

The food was just ok. The view and open air concept is fantastic and the service was good. The coffee was not the best and one of our meals was cold. The coconut whipped cream and pineapple butter were yummy and unique and the fruit plate was really fresh. No kids menu offered.Kid-friendliness: Kids are welcome but there isn't a kid's menu.

The food was absolutely delicious, BUT...if you're in a hurry, this may not be the place for you. We waited about 10 minutes to be seated, another 10 to be greeted by service staff, and an hour for our food after ordering. Staff did not check back in with us at all during that hour. If you're on island time, enjoy. If not, you've been advised.Parking: Because it is on the main tourist strip, best to plan to park a bit away and walk in.

Rude staff. Every time we asked a question about the menu the server acted like he was doing us a favor to answer it. He then called us problem customers. When coffee is not on the menu and a customer asks if you have decaf...they are not the problem. And don't tell your manager that were a problem within our earshot. Someone else came and finished serving us without any issues. The management should have, at the very least, offered an apology. Food was just okay.

Two hours to get our food. Waitress forgot our drinks. If it weren't for the view we would have left. Would have been better off getting a Starbucks and sitting on the

This spot is so good we went both mornings when we were in town! 10/10 portions size, great view, good people watching, good service. The bloodies were a little weak, but the coffee was strong ☕️

Nice service, beautiful view and good food. The waffle was kind of dry but came with delicious sauce and whipped cream . The stuffed French toast was really good, and came with the same toppings as the waffle.

Went there to grab breakfast. Stood there for awhile while 3 people standing around just looked at us (other people behind me) while we waited at the hostess stand. When I asked to place a to go order once someone acknolwded us the gentleman deferred me to the bar/ back area. When i spoke to the guy behind the area he walked away when I said a take away order. Two other servers (the people standing around previously doing nothing) walked by 3 times (no one gave me a menu or acknowledged my presence). Finally I grabbed one at the other end of the area myself (10 minutes later) and decided people with poor attitudes, no smiles, and just overall rude behavior don’t deserve my business. Walked over next door to the fishhopper and everyone there was ALL smiles , pleasant vibes, and assisted as best they could ~ even with the packed crowds. Completely different experience.
