“ Edit: Again. Wow. Third time here and still amazing. Delicious, consistent and the service is awesome and genuine. We love it here! The last two times we came I got the shoyu chicken bowl and requested an over easy egg on top (breakfast ) Both times service was on point and so was the food. Wow. I’m here for breakfast and this place is awesome. It’s 11am, the food came out fast and delicious. The plantation tea yummy. I had the avocado toast with an over easy egg and I highly recommend it. We shared the French toast and he’s enjoying the breakfast scramble. The atmosphere is great as well. Clean and inviting. Bright and lively! Can’t wait to come back for that shredded shoyu chicken! ”
“ Entrance is just next to the Japanese grocery store. Amazing food- omelette sandwich was perfect for me. Service- the folks here set the vibe with aloha and constant checkins. Dog friendly- brought my dog a bowl of water ”
“ Loooovvvee, this little cute restaurant. The food is amazing! The restaurant itself is very quaint and clean. The restroom is very clean and smells nice. I would recommend this place to eat in a heartbeat, if you are in Hawaii or you are planning to go on vacation this is the place to go to eat. They serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner throughout the day. It's not a touristy restaurant, but if you want great food, great price, make sure and hit this place up. ”
“ Food quality: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Cleanliness: 5/5 Value: 5/5 Don’t skip on: The Cilantro Sauce on anything!! Loved our first experience at Oli’s! This restaurant was a great find! The staff was nice, welcoming, and very helpful with the questions we had. I ordered a breakfast burrito with Portuguese Sausage and a spam Musubi. The burrito can with a green cilantro sauce that is TO DIE FOR. Omg, I can’t tell you how much I loved that sauce and could seriously drink a cup of it alone. I had such a wonderful experience and can’t wait to go back! Can’t wait to go back and try other items! ”
“ This is a hidden gem. Authentic Hawaiian fare run by a very nice dude. Popular with locals. Great prices. Parking by the street. Will definitely go back! ”
“ I can’t tell you all how over the moon I am about the breakfast I had this morning!!! Such a pleasant surprise and shockingly low prices, like I was gagged, okay. The breakfast burrito with steak will be in my dreams forever, it is hands down the best breakfast burrito I have ever had!!! Paired with the spicy cilantro sauce, oh my goodness, it was absolutely delicious.It was like nothing I’ve ever tasted before and will definitely be visiting again so I can take pictures to do this review justice. (I was so hungry and just dug right in). My wife got the some French toast to try out and the garlic chicken plate that came with rice and macaroni, which was again DELICIOUS. The waiters were super kind and very attentive to us. There’s not a negative thing that could be said about our experience. 12/10. ”
“ Great OG-diner type spot with some delicious food. I wasn't feeling breakfast when we went so I had the burger. It was great! Sorry for the bite in my photo, I was pretty hungry. Delicious food at really good prices. Highly recommend! ”
