    Aria Plate
    Angel C.

    Ube mascarpone pancakes! I've dined here and at the Aiea location a few times. To my surprise, Guieb was introducing an updated menu when my friend and I visited earlier today. Our server explained that the menu is more streamlined with favorites. He mentioned that all pancake dishes can be interchangeable to waffles and that the waffle in their chicken and waffle dish can be any flavor! can My friend and I ordered new menu items, the Aria Plate for her and Da 3-Bite Feast for me. We enjoyed our plates! I love when restaurants offer samplers of sweet and savory breakfast items. The ube mascarpone pancakes were as legitimately ube and not too sweet as ever. The crab cake Benedict was great with a crispy crab cake patty and the poached egg a good medium (huge improvement from the bao bun Benedict I ordered for takeout years ago). The egg from the Wagyu loco moco was cooked exactly like the over easy I requested. The meat was moist and the gravy was flavorful. Good to know I don't always have to get the same ube mascarpone pancakes every time! One of our servers seemed a little hurried when my friend just arrived, even though the restaurant wasn't busy. I gently reminded him that my friend needed time to look at the menu. (Maybe he got too excited, haha!) The rest of the staff were friendly and attentive. I seem to forget about Guieb's parking in the back, or even the 1-hour parking around the block. The closest untimed street parking I'm aware of is near First Hawaiian Bank a couple blocks away. Guieb Cafe Wahiawa is always a favorite whenever I have visiting family and friends, or for loved ones moving away.

    I ordered the tres amigos! It was all very good! I enjoyed each of the plates. I can't even say which was my favorite since they're all good. For $24 too, not a bad deal! Although I will say the portions are smaller than I expected. The service was pretty good too!! It was a nice casual vibe and I enjoyed eating here and would come back!

    Omelette with adobo fried rice and fried milkfish
    Ariana V.

    I felt right at home here as a Filipina. They were sold out of the prime rib loco moco, so I got their omelet with adobo fried rice and bangus (friend milkfish: filipino breakfast). It was so good and just what I was craving to be honest. It came with onions and tomatoes and the vinegar. I ate the whole thing! This cafe was highly raved about by my boyfriend's aunt, and we ordered their prime rib loco moco the morning of our flight. It did not disappoint! I can see why it sells out so fast. I'll be back every time I'm on the island fr!

    Fried Rice
    Justin S.

    Came here for a breakfast heading up to North Shore. Overall pretty solid. I ordered Da Local Omelette with a side of hash browns. I asked for the hash browns extra crispy per my preference and it came out the same as if I didn't ask for crispy so that was disappointing. Meh 1.5/5. The overall omelette was solid nothing too crazy. Couldn't really taste the Portuguese sausage but definitely had spam in there. Solid 3.5/5. What we loved was the friendly service that this location had! Definitely made our morning for sure! Overall solid 4/5, will come back to try other things!

    Good to the last drop!

    Whoa! I miss having a Loco Moco, and my wife missed having longanisa (both are forbidden in our quest for health food. Screw it! It is only this once, right? This Guieb Cafe does it right! I ordered the Loco Moco Fried Rice - a different take on the run-of-the-mill Loco Moco. Instead of white rice, this comes in a special fried rice, which gives a richer flavor. I loved it! So much so, that I actually finished the plate! The Filipino dish, Lonsilog, had two longanisa patties with rice. My wife ordered it without the eggs, however. The longanisa were as flavorful as I remember, but even more tasty, if this is even possible. Tender and tasty! It was a foodie paradise here at Guieb Cafe. From the delicious food, to the friendly island hospitality -- this was the real deal!

    Garden Omelette
    Kylee T.

    Guieb Cafe= the fusion breakfast/lunch place that does it right! CANNOT go wrong with anything on the menu. We go here at least once a month to treat ourselves even though it's fairly inexpensive compared to other restaurants. Every single worker here seems genuinely happy to be there, and it shows in their demeanor towards their customers. I really feel at home here. But their food? Top notch! Always tasty, well balanced flavors, always plated beautifully with a little orchid on the plate, and always consistent. This time we ordered a garden omelette w/ hash browns, GC's Island Mix w/crab salad and fried rice, and on the seasonal menu UBE DUBAI WAFFLES! All for about $65. We usually get prime rib here but so does everyone else, so you usually have to go earlier in the day before it's gone. I haven't been to their other locations but I'm pretty sure they probably do it just as good. I might get hate for this comment, but I think this restaurant has the potential to be bigger than Zippy's one day.

    Monthly Special:  Prime Rib Loco Moco, Crabcake Benedict, Ube Mascarpone Pancake
    Jenna R.

    Stopped in for lunch! I read parking was located behind the building and the alley way to access the parking felt tight and sus, but there were a couple of cars parked there too. There were lots of tables available and we were told to seat ourselves. Service was amazing and everyone was so friendly. My party shared a couple of plates including the monthly specials and adobo fried rice with lechon kawali. Food was very tasty! I really liked the crab cake Benedict and the ube mascarpone pancakes. I recommend this place and would definitely come back again!

    Receipt of the price of the beignets. Supposed to charge $10.00, but total of the items comes out to $11.00
    Norell L.

    ****CHECK YOUR RECEIPT PRIOR TO PAYING**** ****CHECK YOUR RECEIPT PRIOR TO PAYING**** I had lunch with my wife and had a wonderful experience (she had the country fried steak and I had the Korean rib-eye with an order of 4 beignets [2 of the Ube and 2 of the Strawberry])... ...until I got the receipt for our meal. The cost for the whole meal was reasonable until I saw the price for the beignets that were the special menu item. THEY TRIED TO CHARGE US $25.00 for 4 beignets. (For reference: Price was: 1 for $2.75 or 4 for $10.00) I only ordered 4 (two of the Strawberry and 2 of the Ube so my wife and I can try both flavors), which should come out to $10.00. I confronted the waitress about the mistake, and was very apologetic about the error. She returns to the register to fix it and the total came out to $11.00, not $10.00. The math doesn't make sense. So I approached the waitress and she said and I quote: "We charge the $2.75 price because you ordered two orders of two different types of beignets. Since each cost $2.75, the total comes out to $11.00". THAT WAS NEVER MENTIONED WHEN THE WAITRESS TOOK OUR ORDER OR WAS NOT PRINTED ON THE MENU WHEN WE WERE LOOKING AT THE ORDER I asked her why wasn't this mentioned while we were ordering it, even though she was present when I was having the discussion of the beignets to my wife. All she did was apologize but didn't change the ticket. I didn't want to cause a scene, so I paid the bill and took off. I only state this because even though it is only a dollar, this could have been going on for a good amount of time where they can rack up a good sum of money from customers if they kept this act going. And restaurants wonder why people don't go to their establishments: because occurrences similar to this dissuade people from going out to eat. This is why I check my receipt before paying. *see picture* Don't get me wrong, food was wonderful and the ambiance was laid back and relaxed, but they should make it known of their EXACT pricing before advertising a food item on the menu

    Ube mascarpone french toast.
    Vicki B.

    Stopped at Guieb Cafe after a recent trip to the Wahiawā Botanical Garden (mini review: too many mosquitoes to be enjoyable) for a bite to eat before heading back to our hotel. We ordered corned beef hash & eggs (me) and the ube mascarpone french toast (hubs). Husband's breakfast was clearly the hands down winner. The ube mascarpone cream was delightfully light and, though sweet, not cloyingly so. Two slices of thick (THICK) french toast, bacon, sausage AND eggs! Every bite was really very delicious. My corned beef hash, sadly, was not. The corned beef was overly salty and was just shredded beef, no potatoes or onions both of which are usually found in hash. Moreover, the meat looked like it sat on the flat top for 45 minutes. Any moisture had been cooked out and what was left was hard as a rock and unpleasant to chew. The restaurant itself was spacious and clean. Service was prompt. Overall I was disappointed and would not be inclined to go back.

    Prime Rib Loco Moco
    Emily L.

    YUM! such a delicious sit-down breakfast spot to stop by on the way to north shore! Everything we ordered was a hit. We got the Bangsilog, Prime Rib Loco Moco, Adobo Fried Rice Omelette Lechon Kawali, and the Aria Plate. My favorites were the bangsilog, adobo fried rice, and chicken mango sausage from the aria plate. The food was really top tier in flavor. Service was quite friendly too. Lots of seating as well. There's some parking in the back, but was quite full when we got there. There alley to enter was super tight as well. Would definitely return.

    Shay Y.

    Our server was great - super friendly and attentive. The menu selection is good. We dropped by on a weekend just after 1p and there was parking in the back lot and hardly anyone inside. I guess we missed the rush. I ordered an omelet with fried rice ($4 upcharge). The fried rice was probably not worth it to me, but that may just be my tastes. It was a little too sweet for me. Not sure if that was char siu or something else in there. Portions were generous. Would still come back and try something new - they were out of prime rib by the time we got there, so that must be good.

    Best food we've had in Oahu so far
    Monica P.

    Wonderful service! They seated our party of 7 immediately. I ordered the Wagyu Loco Moco, beignets special of 4 and tried a bite of my daughter's Ube waffle. All of it was amazing!! Big servings too; couldn't finish our food. I'll be trying the Vegas location next time.

    Ube Mascarpone Pancake
    Lolo A.

    Although the restaurant can get quite busy, service is quick and efficient. There might be a wait for the food, but it's delivered to the table hot and fresh. Everything we've tried so far (on multiple occasions) were delicious. Highly recommend the ube mascarpone pancakes! Parking can be difficult to find, so come early if you can and check the side streets.

    Inside the restaurant is really big! Lots of seating!

I'm not a big fan of pancakes unless they have bananas & macadamia nuts in them...so these are a real treat, especially at THIS place! I ordered 2 Banana Macnut pancakes with fresh fruit, Hubby enjoyed another one of their Breakfast Burritos. Our server, Farin has a great personality for this job & kept our coffee cups full. Knowing how HUGE the pancakes are, I asked her to bring me a to-go box right at the start (They actually reheat in the nuker very well if you can avoid putting butter or syrup on what you take home.

There are 2 entrances but not clearly marked and look like they are closed. The staff is welcoming once you come in, and you can tell when the regulars come in as they are extra welcoming. Ordered the Eggs Benedict with Hash. The double / full is your tradition whole biscuits but once this came, these are thick. The only negative was that I could taste the benedict water on the biscuits, which soured the taste. The egg was cooked perfectly and the potatoes were also good. The pancake was big, and very fluffy. Comes with butter and a plastic pre measured syrup. The Kona coffee was ok, a bit on the weaker side. Highly recommend this place. Staff was attentive and friendly, the place is bright with their yellow painted walls, even with the curtains blocking the sun and closed.
