"I expected reputable and delicious, but what I got was freezer burn and rotten produce, and flavorless slop. My omelette was a frightening horror show. Vegetables that were practically raw, not cooked, yet rotting and sour mush. Chunks of zucchini and peppers that had sat in a fridge for weeks, perhaps bagged together? Barely heated. I was so hungry I just nibbled at the outside overcooked browned shell of egg. Not a lick of seasoning or love or flavor. I chewed remembering the show Kitchen Nightmares and seeing Gordon Ramsey in restaurant refrigerators. That slime I realized is what I just chewed and swallowed thinking maybe just one bad piece wasn 't indicative of the next bite. But it was. I had to chuck it. The hash browns looked promising but were freezer burned. Again no seasoning or fluff or steamy goodness, just cardboard. EVEN the salsa was dead, straight out of a tub, a dark brown dried blood color. Not made fresh. Or sourced with care. Why would anyone wait in line for stewed tomatoes without any heat, just the cheapest canned condiment? The best part of what Kalaheo Cafe serves is straight from Costco, the bagels and cream cheese, pastries, croissants, even if the mark up is insane. It 's edible. The home fries for example were NOT fresh or made with care, days old. No crunch, no flavor. Like they had been sitting in a hospital cafeteria steam trough for days. For 5 bucks, a side, they grace you with a serving spoonful. These people have should not be in the food business. They don 't have taste buds evidently. I still feel sick after hours of eating there. You couldn 't pay me to go back. No standards, no care for freshness or local produce. Shame on these folks for dishing up spoiled food. They should be forced to eat it."

"However, by 4:30 PM, the waitress began putting the chairs up on the tables. The music was so loud that it made it impossible for us to have a conversation with our friends. When I asked if she could lower the volume, she explained that they preferred the music loud while they mopped the floors. By 4:35 PM, they started mopping around us, and the strong smell of the cleaning supplies was overwhelming, causing us to cough. The loud music continued, and we felt rushed to finish our meals. Ultimately, we had to gulp down our food and leave due to the unpleasant fumes. While the food is great, I would caution others to visit after 4 PM at their own risk, as the service was unacceptably poor."

"Thanks for taking our party of 5 without a reservation! Whoops! (Starving tourists thank you and plan to do better in the future! My friends who are staying longer will likely be back! Our group ordered a Kim Chee Tofu appetizer, a medium lean beef green onion and a small with whatever folks wanted on it. We still took home a little bit of pizza. Service was fast, considering that it's one of the best places to eat in the area and they were a bit busy. I had Brick Oven Pizza Pokemon Go gifts!"

"Strange service here. We ordered a pastry and 2 frozen blended drinks. The person who took our order stood at an iPad for minimally 5-8 minutes after we ordered and paid in cash and I have no idea what they were doing. I kept looking at my husbandand asking if we should ask him if he?s going to make our drinks or if there is a problem. Eventually another employee came outof the back and chatted (about personal things) with the first employee for a few minutes. Then the first employee started tomake out drinks. 5-8 more minutes later we got our drinks and had to ask for the pastry, which they forgot we ordered 20 minutesago. The drinks were actually very good but the whole experience was very weird. And the store was very dirty and overalllooked gross. I did question as soon as I walked in if I should even buy anything from here."

"Off the beaten path, locals restuarant. Best Stuffed pork chop i have ever had ! Beats Ruth Chris at half price. The steaks are excellent as well. If you want an exceptional Steak or Chop and not pay resort prices, this is THE place."
