    This place was great!!! Got us right in no wait, which is rare in Waikiki for a group of 5. Very small quaint little place with great customer service all the servers and workers had great attitudes and did their very best to make you feel comfortable and wanted. We had the Very Berry French toast and the pineapple French toast both are absolutely amazing we also had to order their eggs benedict with Okinawa sweet potatoes which was outstanding!!! Kids top it off with some smoothies and we had a couple Guava mimosas which were fresh!!! Well done. We had 5 folks with us with some shared plates, totaling around $130. A bit up there but worth it, we will hit this place again real soon.!!!!⭐⭐⭐👏👏👏👏

    Excellent local care. Generous portion sizes. Small menu but everything is offered all day. I had the berry french toast for dinner. It was light, not too sweet and delicious. Three slices of bread was a lot to finish. But I brought some home to eat later. Definitely recommend the eats if you are near the Hilton Hawaiian village area.

    Stumbled on this quaint establishment while roaming around downtown Honolulu. There was a wait but once seated the service was friendly and quick. I got the Hawaiian French toast which was so fresh with tons of fresh fruit on top. My husband got the veggie eggs Benedict that he enjoyed. For vegetarians there are a couple options. I did ask for the burrito without bacon and they were not able to adjust as the burritos are premixed.

    Waited over an hour but it was worth it. It was really delicious. Loved every dishes I ordered, acai bowl, french toast, and egg Benedict. Staff was slow but they were packed so it was really understandable, despite being busy, they still provided good quality service. The staff was friendly as well.

    Martha, Mike and all the servers here are so fantastic. We loved coming to goofy cafe on our honeymoon. The food is always phenomenal with the service to match. The wait is typically pretty quick and the upstairs roofed porch is a great atmosphere. We came 3x!! Highly recommend stopping here for breakfast. You will have a lovely time! Best iced coffee around too!

    I have been wanting to go here to experience the cafe and breakfast options since I've been at Honolulu. The view and vibe is very homey and feels like a shack. It's very cozy and like you're in someone house. The ambience and music on the background is very chill and low enough to have a great conversation. I had the coffee along with the omelette. The omelette was amazing and definitely filing if you are hungry. It was just the right amount and the flavors meshed well. It included avocado, sausage, cheese onions at a perfect blend. The absolute best thing about this spot is that they fill your coffee up for free to go after you drank your first one. It's absolutely amazing to have coffee while walking! Pro tip: Highly recommend this place and make sure to ask for siracha for that extra kick!

    Such a great local spot in Honolulu for a quick and delicious bite to eat. The wait can be a bit long since it’s a small place with no parking lot. Call ahead and see what the wait time is so you can plan! Highly recommend for fresh and local food. All the food we had was delicious and flavorful. The Hawaiians Açaí bowl was fresh, not too sweet, and filling. The Kalua pork Benedict with taro muffin was the perfect blend of sweet, tangy, and starchy. The loco moco was also a hit! The Patties were on the smaller side but the gravy was perfectly salted and flavored. I ordered the Caesar salad and it’s 100% my favorite menu item. It’s a great blend of salty, umami, sweet (from the local romaine), and the dressing is homemade. Service was good and everyone was friendly. The cafe is small and cozy and gives that beach friendly vibe. Overall, this is a place I’ve been back to many times and recommend every single time! It’s a Honolulu staple.

    The best Bloody Mary I’ve had in a LONG TIME! I will dream about this bad boy for months. The food, extraordinary. I ordered the Kalua Pork Eggs Benedict. The eggs were cooked perfectly, the pork was moist and well marinated. The side of Okinawa purple potato was mouth watering delicious. Fresh cut pineapple to die for. Best meal I’ve had in Honolulu by far! When we arrived there were 16 people in front of us waiting to be seated, but it moved pretty quickly, I don’t think we waited longer than 20 minutes

    Whenever I go here it is absolutely amazing!! I would order anything on the menu. The prices aren't high at all and going here is totally worth it! The bibimbap always impresses me with every single bite. Although, I always have to wait for a while to dine in.. but it's always worth the wait! I'm so SO happy with the result of this restaurant and I hope to eat here again sometime soon.

    A little local food joint but full of flavour. The wait was long to get in but it was worth it. The food had local and organic produce and the taste was phenomenal. We had the loco moco , French toast and the garlic pork rice for lunch was mind blowing. We went back again after the first time and recommended it to other tourists we met at the hotel.

    This is a great breakfast spot that gets very busy. We waited 1hr but it was well worth it. Get here early to avoid the prime time breakfast crowd. We had the Guava mimosas which were really juicy. The Bloody Mary's were ok. The Kalua Pork Benedict and Goofy Hawaiian Omelet were very delicious. There is no on street parking as this location is right in the middle of all the hotels. This was within walking distance from where we were staying so it was perfect. Our server was friendly and provided great service. The food came out quickly and we weren't waiting long. The atmosphere was really nice and breezy with all windows open giving it that open air tropical feeling. Overall good food and service.

    Had a delicious brunch! The crab cake eggs Benedict is absolute heaven! The sweetness of the lilikoi butter in the hollandaise pairs beautifully with the sweetness of the crab cake. 🤤 I'm obsessed with Okinawan sweet potato, so I was so glad they came on the side. The omelette came in a tiny cast iron skillet with a side salad. Servers were friendly and attentive, filling water and coffee before your glass was empty. It is right on the main drag, so traffic noise can get loud, but we thoroughly enjoyed the food.

    We visited for a breakfast and ordered Egg Benedict and French toast which is the most popular menu as they recommended. Really good. Interior is very pretty and open air space feels nice an comfortable. Morning was very busy. I recommend that you have little extra wait time to visit your plan. Enjoy!

    This is a must stop! Be careful and make sure you eat here on the last day of your stay, because it sets the bar soo high for breakfast. The French Toast is the best French Toast can get. It's pretty big and very tasty. I also highly recommend the pulled pork eggs benedict. The restaurant is a little tough to spot. It's on the second floor above a few shops. There was a 30ish min wait when we got there but it was well worth it. The staff was also very friendly.

    My family and I came here for a quick bite on our last day of the Waikiki trip. The omelette with the taro muffin was delicious and the poke bowl with the soup was also very good. Service was great and we didn't have to wait too long for a table during lunch hours. The only mild complaint would be parking as I was driving my family and Goofy Cafe we stayed at was not walking distance from our resort. But the owner has recognized this and they have provided/suggested paid and free parking options on their web site which made things easier.

    Great little place! We were looking for coffee and dessert and this place nailed it! Who ever decided to put the french toast on the dinner menu is genious! It hit the dessert need and more! The sauteed veggies were delicious! Never had radishes prepared like that but will be stealing the idea! The baguette was perfect, soft on the inside and a perfect crust on the outside! Service was excellent, attentive but not overbearing. Answered all our questions and let us enjoy our meal! You definitely need to put this on your list!!

    This place is awesome! We had breakfast here several times while staying in Waikiki. The service was phenomenal and the food was always fresh and delicious. Coffee was very good. Goofy Cafe & Dine will definitely be on our list next time we visit Hawaii!

  • 5/5 Charlie M. 5 months ago on Google
    Quaint little spot conveniently located near hotels and beach. I’d recommend a reservation as they have very limited seating. There may be 10 tables. With that said best Chicken Caesar Salad I’ve ever had. Gentleman next to me said it best “ lots of chicken, bacon and cheese and a little bit of salad. They also serve French toast for dinner and they give you tons of fruit. Two dinners a side dish and a beer were approximately $65 which is great for Hawaii. Service was super friendly and efficient. Highly recommend!!

    This is the best brunch we have had in ages! The fruits are so fresh, it is a must try! The wait times are pretty long. We had to wait for an hour but it was totally worth it!

  • 5/5 Stephanie H. 5 months ago on Google
    This was by far my favorite food on vacation. The French toast was the best either of us have ever had, by far. Our server was super chill and nice, very helpful. The bacon was also my favorite I've ever had anywhere. Flavorful and crunchy with just a hint of chew.

  • 5/5 Jennifer G. 1 year ago on Google
    This is an absolute must come for breakfast spot! You literally walk up, sign yourself in on a list and wait. They have chairs and shade which makes it nice. They are quick, efficient and super friendly. The food is off the charts amazing. Everything is fresh....fresh....fresh! I loved it so much I had to go back the next day and try the Cinnamon Pineapple French Toast.......I am so plain and basic with my French toast that I even enjoyed it. Seriously don't miss this on your trip. You won't be sorry .....trust me!

  • 5/5 emishappy89 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing food. The chef spent a lot of time curating the eclectic menu. Would highly recommend. Drinks were well made and strong. Food was unique and delicious. Portions good sized. And best of all dessert. Do not skip the dessert. Save room. Amazing.

  • 5/5 Boilermaker D. 1 year ago on Google
    First place we landed for dinner upon arrival in Waikiki. The kids loved the açaí bowls (heck, we all did!) and made a filling meal out of them! We also really loved the unique take on eggs Benedict, which had a delicious buttery and slightly sweet taste to the muffins. Overall, a wonderful atmosphere and delicious experience that we would gladly enjoy again!

  • 5/5 Way C. 2 years ago on Google
    The wait was really long when we went, but they do have a sign in sheet for you to leave your name. I had the eggs Benny and my wife had the French toast. Portions are generous and the taste was great. The French toast had a mountain of fruit! Above the quality of food was the service though. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive. Would definitely come back here and recommend this to anyone that wants a solid breakfast/lunch spot.

  • 5/5 Sokvanndy C. 2 years ago on Google
    We went around brunch time and the wait was a bit long, but the wait was worth it. I highly recommend the eggs Benedict and the French toast! Great customer service and food was superb.

  • 5/5 Wilson T. 2 years ago on Google
    It opens at 7:00 and it was already full by the time I arrived at 7:15 with 6 tables ahead of me! A good mix of local and tourists alike, I gladly waited for 30 minutes before sitting down for a delicious meal of loco moco. Two over easy eggs over a well cooked and charred hamburger patty with a decent sauce and rice. I would gladly come back to try something else next time!

  • 5/5 N B. 2 years ago on Google
    This was my very first breakfast in Hawaii and it definitely set the tone for a fantastic vacation. I had my first ever loco moco and it did not disappoint. My boyfriend had a French toast which he loved. The drinks were well made also. The wait (which I learned one must get used to in Waikiki area) was about 30 minutes but we went to the donut shop downstairs and munched a little there until our table was ready. A great start to a trio of a lifetime!
