Oahu's Best Restaurants

Breakfast

One thing Oahu knows how to do well is breakfast. There are so many restaurants to choose from and the cafe scene here is amazing! Not only is the food super delicious, but a lot of these places are cute and aesthetic!

Lunch/ Poke

Lunch for me is usually a light, cold meal like poke or even an acaí bowl. You're sure to find something you'll love and if you have dietary restrictions most places have substitutes or options to accommodate you.

Dinner

Oahu has an endless amount of dinner spots. If we had to pay for only one meal a day, it would be dinner! We love savory food and Hawaii is home to a melting pot of Asian / Pacific cuisines and spices that we love!

1. Sweet E's Cafe - This breakfast spot was closest to our house so we came here often! It's budget friendly and BYOB. We always bring a bottle (or 2) or champagne to make mimosas, which they put on ice for you. Try their blueberries and cream cheese french toast!
2. Egg Head - Amazing coffee and we think everything on their menu is super delicious, but usually go for an Avo Toast add egg.
3. Yoghur Story - Ube Pancakes
4. Cream Pot - Eggs Benedict
5. Konos - Breakfast Burrito
6. Sunrise Shack
7. Cinnamon's
