👍 No Wifi No Outlets Dine in seating only from 9am to 2pm and limited to only 1 hour seating I went to this place in hopes of studying at around 2pm only to find out that they close their dine in area at that same time (shucks). Even so, I had their iced hazelnut latte and it was super good! Not sure... People often mention coffee, sandwich, sandwiches,

    A little gem of a coffee/cafe on Young Street. Located in a complex which has plenty of Korean establishments and they all compliment each other. Coffees, Lattes, Desserts and Small bites. I believe it’s run by husband and wife team. Very nice and personable.

    The atmosphere in this wonderful little nook is amazing. It is quiet with wonderful soft music playing and the food is always fresh and delicious. My personal favorite is the banana blueberry smoothie. The owners are very polite and offer wonderful customer service. This is an excellent place to go if you want a healthy lunch or a delicious dessert, there is something to please everyone, even if you're just looking for a simple cup of coffee or tea. Highly recommend!

    Absolutely love this place for a little getaway from my office. Avocado steak with salad is my go to and I also enjoy the Acai Bowl. Always thankful to the kind Ahjussi and Ahjumma who makes the delicious food.

What in the deflation??? You guys, truly one of my “must visits” when you come to town. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ PS. If you like a lil crunchy sweet, try the passion fruit ice tea! It’s my favorite drink!

    they have really nice and clean place. Owners were so kind and the sandwich was one of the best sandwiches in Hawaii. I strongly recommend this place if you visit hawaii.

    This place is amazing and needs more attention. The service was amazing and the coffee is as well. It's a cozy spot with clean and nice furniture. Kind of quiet like a coffee shop should be. 10/10 will go again.

    Little mom and pop hole in the wall coffee shop with sandwiches and espresso drinks. Kona beans, good coffee. Small place with three indoor tables. Friendly staff. Large parking lot. The banana peanut butter sandwich is a great snack.

    Ordered cold and got served hot. Don’t run business if you can’t take order correctly then blame customers. So lame.

    I had the tomatoe bisque and cheese sandwich. The tomato bisque was rich but not overly heavy and was tasty!

  • 5/5 butu a. 1 year ago on Google
    Tasty steak sandwich! The bread was toasted just right. The portion was more than enough to feed me well for the entire day. The sandwich, salad, potato wedge and balsamic struck just the right note for the sides. The price can not be beat. The same kind of sandwich would cost 3x as much closer to the water. I appreciated the quiet and peaceful atmosphere. The complimentary water with the limes and oranges floating in it was refreshing and made an already perfect dining experience even better. Huge upside there is a parking lot so parking was easy.

    My favorite place to go study and eat! I love their avocado lover sandwich. Currently in the mainland but can’t wait to visit this cute place again.

    Had lunch with my wife at this little spot. My wife thanked me for finding a cute, quiet place with hearty sandwhiches. A really nice calm spot that we will be sure to go back to.

    Happened to be in the neighborhood, and came across this place. Me and the wife both had the avocado steak sandwich and it was excellent!!! With that being said we had our 8 month old with is and the owners were the nicest people ever! Will 1000% be visiting again

    Tasty rice drink that I always butcher saying. Friendly place but only doing takeout. Sikhye!!

  • 5/5 Tommy S. 3 years ago on Google
    Cute little Korean mom and pop run cafe. They have great sandwiches and desserts. It seems like the menu is a little smaller these days because it's take out only. We got the avocado steak and bacon salami sandwiches with salad on the side. Super tasty! I also got a banana acai smoothie, which was good, but I want to try their sikhye (sweet rice drink) smoothie next time.

    The owners are so friendly! My family found this hidden café by chance and the atmosphere is cozy and clean. There’s many food options for vegetarians. I can’t recommend this place enough!

  • 5/5 Erika I. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing coffee and lots of quick bite options. Cozy vibe in the cafe. The couple that owns the cafe are so sweet, exceptional customer service. I make the 20 minute walk almost daily - worth it!
