    First time here after hearing about it and this place didn't disappoint parking isn't all that great but other then that the place is wonder vibe is on point place is definitely worth it burgers are so fresh and juicy fries was just right. Service was fast and efficient took little while cause food is made fresh so pleased be patient but I highly recommend this place.

    My mom and I came here on a Friday morning and it wasn't busy. It took awhile for us to get our food. There were people that came after us and they got their food before us. My mom got the Lilikoi (Passion Fruit) Cream & Pineapple Pancake and I got the BLT Benedict. Both were very delicious. Overall good experience but service could've been better.

    A quiet, lovely cafe that has a homey feeling from the first step inside. The staff is friendly and accommodating. They care about customer service. I usually don't like sweet breakfasts but when I saw the coconut cream, banana, macadamia nut pancakes I couldn't refuse! And the only time I've ever NOT regretted ordering g a sweet pancake breakfast was today! Of course the side of bacon wasn't a bad idea either . . . It was plenty for my husband and I to share and we want to go back before our visit is over in Oahu! Thank you!

    Our server was great! The Portuguese Benedict was delicious. The Morey's Fried Rice was just okay. Corn and spinach was an interesting twist, but it did not wow me. Coffee was just alright. My main issue was the birds. They ate my pancakes while I stepped away to ask for something and kept coming back to my table, which was really annoying. I wish I got to enjoy my pancakes some more.

    Maki x Cafe Morey

    Location: It is close by Kapiolani Park and there is parking next to the restaurant but it is small. Service: I think it was average, but there was a pitcher of water on the table. It was busy so understandable. Food: Maki x Cafe Morey: the plate was a big size and Açai on the side. BBQ Chicken: Pretty average French toast: Had a lot of custard flavor. I would recommend coming here. But, there might be a wait depending on what time you go.

    Mushroom, Onion & Spinach Scramble and Morey's Morey's Fried Rice

    Dare I say it's one of the best fried rice on the island? I love coming here for their signature Morey's fried rice and will either get the Portuguese sausage or garlic shrimp add on. My husband ordered the scrambled egg plate that comes with a side salad, 2 hash browns, and pancakes. There was a waitlist but we got seated almost immediately. It's a cute little place. I haven't been here in a while but the food was just as good as I remember it. There's a small lot on the side of the restaurant but it's a shared lot with the yoga studio so parking is pretty full. You can find parking in the nearby residential area and walk to the restaurant.

    Maki Special Plate

    The breakfast here was very good. We had the Maki Special plate which included fried rice, garlic shrimp, one egg, and an acai/fruit bowl. All was tasty but for $25 the portions were not as much as expected, maybe at least another egg. We also had the lilikoi (passion fruit) cream with pineapple pancakes. Pancakes were very fluffy and cream topping sweet and a bit tangy. Again, very tasty but $22 seems a bit pricey. The atmosphere is nice. Open air, cafe vibe in a nice neighborhood. Also, very comfortable to sit and enjoy a relaxing breakfast and beverage. The service was good however, I did have to flag someone to get a refill on my coffee. Parking can be a little tough. They have a small lot and street parking can be challenging due to all the other businesses in the area. Overall, we enjoyed our breakfast and would probably come back again.

    Frozen Pineapple Lemonade* so refreshing

    We are always looking for dog friendly options and this place is so great! It's open air dining, and very spacious. They are so accommodating to dogs - we had two with us, and they brought two bowls of water for them. The food was very tasty. We actually ordered 4 fried rice plates, and they were so good. I loved that you can customize the fried rice by asking not to include certain vegetables or ingredients. It was full and there was a short line. We will definitely be back! Again and again!

    We were leaving the Saturday Farmer's market nearby and wanted to have a nice sit down breakfast. The restaurant is open and airy. I normally research for gluten free options but figured we could try this place. They weren't very many gluten free options. I ended up getting the mixed fruit chia açaí bowl. Cost was $16 My husband got the kimchi fried rice cost was $15.50 and scrambled eggs was an extra $3.95. We agreed our meals were equally average and pricey. The service was ok. Server seemed annoyed when I asked about gluten friendly options. The menu was labeled with gluten free options but I just wanted to be sure.

    We love Cafe Morey's & love any excuse to eat there! The food is always good, the staff are friendly & the atmosphere is cute!

    Maki Special Plate*
    Kate M.

    Great access to this place, there is street parking and a small lot behind the building. Coffee is ok. Maki plate has a little bit of everything so it's a great deal. Very filling. It was a solid meal. Fried rice was seasoned well, eggs. Garlic shrimp was garlicky, large size. Açaí bowl was basically frozen so great for hot days. The fruits on top were so sweet and yummy. Overall a solid meal if you're looking for something in the area.

    Had coffee and a fried rice and garlic shrimp with scramble eggs . Taste ok . Fried rice with Japanese rice mushroom . A bit too oily and heavy . Service is very good and friendly .

The pastries were just okay; we tried a few cake slices that were fine but unremarkable. The cinnamon roll was dry and hard, the malasadas were forgettable, and the haupia-filled malasada was surprisingly tart. It's possible some ingredients were locally sourced and just unfamiliar to our mainland palates, or maybe we simply caught them on an off day. The servers were curt but friendly, likely because the place was packed with tourists.

My fiance won a gift card actually 2 of them (from his coworker whom could not get a reservation secured), we knew we had to make the trip over before they officially close. We had multiple dishes, but staff made Kauai prawns and tomato miso black cod dishes on the house since they ran out the Hokkaido scallops. We ordered the short ribs, lobster appetizer, hamachi crudo and lastly sashimi moriawase to finish food palate. Lukki lemon dessert was great way to end to night. Ordered the Milk tea bouquet cocktail while my better half had water ( either way the food coma knock him out cold the rest of the night lol). To be honest, it was difficult to determine which dish was the best because the staff kept quality there despite it being busy every night since they announce the closure. Sashimi moriawase, fish was so fresh, reminded me of my time spent in Hokkaido and Sapporo. Short ribs was soft and rich in flavor. Both me and my fiance liked the lukki lemon dessert, like lemon meringue pie but broken down version. If you have a chance to dine here before closing and got a reservation, definitely will have a lovely dining experience and your stomach will be full by end of the night.
