Crema's Take
“This Kona institution serves up authentic Hawaiian comfort food with generous portions and a real local following, where the loco moco and fresh poke hit just right alongside hearty breakfast plates. The casual vibe welcomes families and quick breakfast seekers alike, with friendly service and a mix of indoor and outdoor seating that captures that laid-back island feel. While consistency varies slightly across the menu, the teriyaki chicken and handmade burgers keep people coming back to this popular neighborhood spot.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A quick-grab spot, outdoor seating. Full breakfast and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

I ordered the teriyaki beef plate and was completely blown away by how delicious it was! The beef was tender, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. This is a great spot for lunch, especially since they offer a wide variety of menu options to suit whatever you’re in the mood for.…

Great place to grab a quick, filling meal. The dining area gives cafeteria but makes for plenty of space. Mac was a bit weird to me, it was oddly grainy and I didn’t care for the corn. The Korean Chicken and Teriyaki Beef was fantastic. Nothing life-changing but still great…
I got the Spicy Ahi Poke Plate and the Teriyaki Chicken Plate. Everything was super ono and incredibly filling! The poke was fresh with just the right amount of kick, and the portions were huge, definitely didn't leave hungry. It’s a nice casual spot to grab a plate lunch that…
Most food looked really good Loco moco patty that was handmade was really good. The gravy seemed like it came out of a can and was not very warm. Looks like the burgers are very popular The club sandwich looked amazing
The restaurant is clean and a majority of the food was good. I just didn't like the flavor of the Philly cheese steak. It just seemed a little bland but the food was cooked a good and I Ate everything. They do Have a variety of options , so that is good.
