We were excited to try Liliha Bakery, it was a spot that many people mentioned and we made our way to the top floor of the International Market Place to try it for ourselves. When you first walk in they have the bakery area and everything looks so good. If you keep walking you'll find the host stand where you can put your name in. They have indoor and outdoor seating and their team here are very nice. We ordered the Loco Moco ($20.95) and the Two Eggs meal with corned beef hash ($19.50). Their famous butter rolls are very good and the bright red sauce that comes with it is very sweet but nostalgic and tasty. Both of our meals were delicious, and filling. I probably would order a loco moco next time, or even try something off their lunch menu, but I enjoyed my corned beef hash as well. We also noticed that the bathrooms here are very nice. The stall doors go all the way to the floor and ceiling and the whole restaurant was really clean. So glad we stopped here. read more

Love Liliha Bakery! You can stop by the bakery to a variety of amazing pastries or get seated for a delicious sit down breakfast, lunch or dinner. The butterfish was delicious-perfectly cooked and seasoned. I loved their potato mac salad. The rice and corn complemented the meal well. The guava plantation iced tea was lightly sweetened. Breakfasts were also good here the portions were large; I couldn't finish everything on the plate. Stop by the bakery on the way out for some goodies for later! read more

Finding a good food spot is a challenge when everyone is HANGRY and we're on holiday and don't know the area at all! A gentleman at our hotel suggested Liliha bakery. We tried the salmon, mahi mahi and the garlic shrimp saiman ju noodle soup and clam chowder. The. Butter. Rolls. Grilled and raspberry jam took our Hangry to a much more civilized level. Thank you JayR for saving us with the rolls! Our meals came out and they were all simply plated. Perfect portions and we took half of the soup home as well as the rice and potato Mac salad. Salmon was perfectly cooked. The mahi mahi was covered an egg wash and again, perfectly. We all tried the garlic shrimp saiman ju soup dish, the noodles - plentiful and tasty. The music was fun, but a little loud. We didn't mind, and next we are heading to the pastry counter to get goodies to go! read more

We came here 8 months ago and not having good services by this lady here but my kids like the food here so we come back again. We order some dishes and a bowl of oxygen tail soup. It came out very fast but it is a small bowl so I order another bowl. We finished our lunch about 30 minutes and that soup still haven't come out so we ask the service man to bring us the bill and make sure to cancel the soup. 5 minutes later, this lady came and told us that we have to pay for the soup because we order it and because the restaurant very crowded so it taking 15-20 minutes to make it but we were there more then half an hour and this place is emtpty. We don't want to make a big scenes so we pay for it and left. Later the service guy apologized to us and told us that she is the manager here. She must be the greedy owner. This definitely be our last time here. read more

Si being bilingual, the thought of eating something called crazy snot was a bit disconcerting. Nonetheless we move forward. Pleasant location with outdoor seating in the middle of tourist central.

Stopped in for breakfast and lunch. I was able to sample some baked goods during our trip. We were seated quickly and the dining room Was decorated and I was happy to see the baked goods were made in-house. We had pancakes and the hamburger steak with Mac/potato salad with rice and gravy. The helpings were very generous. The grilled buns with a sweet sauce were accompanied with the meal. The pancakes were large and fluffy with homemade syrup. Will definitely come back when in Hawaii read more

Nice location in the International Market Place in Waikiki. Clean and new decor indoor and outdoors. Service was very friendly and helpful. The menu is limited for breakfast than the other locations. Food was tasty. The garlic fried rice was a little too garlicky for me but if you like garlic you would enjoy it. read more

Some of the food including the loco moco and bacon were ice cold when they came out, the rice was all soggy and not cooked on the inside. The potatoes were not cooked on the inside. Our fault for not complaining immediately but when we finally got our bill which we had to ask for they had to call a manager who had to ask another manager and would only give 10% off since we didn't tell them immediately how bad the food was. This place was really good in the past but not sure if it was an off day or what. read more

Came back here for some morning pastries since we didn't want a full breakfast. Line wasn't too bad at all and they move very quickly here. It's hard not to order everything! You can enjoy them at one of the many tables outside (they are on the 3rd level) or go downstairs to seating there inside the International Market Place. The pastries were a little hit or miss like last time again. My favorite was the onion roll which is like a green onion hot dog bun. So fresh and soft! But the haupia malasada on the other hand was so dry and tasted stale, and barely any filling! I'd say this is a good spot to stop for some treats if you're in the area already but would not go out of the way to come. read more

The only thing that was good here was the bakery. The desserts were amazing for sure, but the food itself was flavorless, it was even missing salt. We ordered the loco moco, and honestly, it was worse than what we make at home. Save your money, skip the line, and just visit the bakery. The food is not worth the wait. We are only giving 2 stars because of the bakery which is honestly 5 stars, but food/restaurant, 1 read more

I was skeptical at first but it's the same good food, in much swankier ambiance. Several restaurants have been here and left before Liliha. And it's probably the nicest one. Prices reflect that too. Bakery section is so much nicer. And dining- lanai is better than indoor. But you get the same delicious food you love- in the many other version before this. Including Yum Cha. But this fits. Happy to get my soup on - or their chicken. Oxtail! Butter rolls - yumm. Fried chicken, waffles. Loco moco! Without the wait. That's the best part/ the wait. Ala Moana is much busier than here, but the wait. Free parking there is nice. Here, you can get validated. But it's tricky to find. Or come in for the bakery! Same good food, in the market. Never much wait is the best part. read more

This place was recommended by some foodies we watched on YT and everything looked so yummy on the screen that we decided to go give it a try during our recent visit. This is a nice new looking, modern, casual, bakery cafe style restaurant located on the top floor of the International Market Place. What we liked was that there is indoor seating available as well as outdoor seating. Since we prefer fresh air dining, we requested a table outside. Right after walking in the front door, you pass by a very colorful yummilicious bakery display that's very hard to not stop and just look, but we had already decided we'd come re-visit this bakery on our way out. Anyway, immediately past the bakery was where the restaurant's hostess greeted us and led us to our table....very nice, friendly, polite.....with a smile on her face....which was nice. Once at our table, our server showed up shortly after, equally nice, friendly, and polite....handed us the menu. It didn't take long to decide what we wanted as we were so in the mood for their breakfast offerings..at this later supper hour. At first, we couldn't decide on the Mac Nut Waffle & Chicken Karaage or the Mac Nut Waffard.....so, we asked our server for her suggestions....and ended up ordering both!...and we were so glad we did. Both dishes hot and fresh out of the kitchen, and oh so satisfying and comforting....and not as sweet as we had expected, which was good. Needless to say, the food didn't stay untouched for very long as it all disappeared quite fast.....it was that yummy....either that or we were very hungry. Anyway, everything was good, excellent service, and yummy desserts at the bakery on the way out. Actually, we had heard that their malasadas (Hawaiian donuts) were one of the best, but sadly, they were all out when we were there. read more

Came here for breakfast after the valet at SPK next door suggested breakfast here. I'd only been once before for pastries, which wasn't that great IMO. Since it was so close we decided to check it out. Well what do you know. The breakfast is bomb! I had the garlic fried, eggs with spam. It even came with a little mini salad which I ate cuz why not. This combo was more nostalgic to my younger days, it's definitely comfort food. Generous serving will leave you walking out slowly. My friend had the Mac Nut Waffard which left her speechless. She added an extra side of whipped cream which tasted like coconut- it was definitely bringing the aloha. We arrived early around 7-8am and seating outside was no issue. It was nice to be there while it was still quiet - just the little birds around hoping for a stray morsel or two. Food was so good we ate here 3 mornings in a row. To this day we still dream of this breakfast. Will definitely be back. Mahalo! read more

To me, Liliha Bakery in Hawaii is the equivalent of Junior's in New York. They're both sit down restaurants with sizable menus, good food, and even better baked goods which are really their signature products. I've been to this location twice so far and enjoyed both visits. They're family-friendly and super accommodating. For food, I highly recommend the regular loco moco, pork belly loco moco, and oxtail soup. And come hungry because the portion sizes are huge! The baked goods are a hit or miss. The cream puffs are just okay. The malasada flavors are very limited. The donuts are winners. read more

The restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor seating. It was a beautiful morning, so we chose to sit outside. I'm not sure how long the place has been around, but it feels fresh, modern, and spacious. I had the eggs with Portuguese sausage, while my friend ordered the Loco Moco with smoked pork belly -- which he described as an "OMG moment." My eggs were perfectly cooked, and the Portuguese sausage was flavorful. Unfortunately, the fried potatoes were a complete miss -- undercooked and chewy to the point that not even ketchup or Tabasco could save them. On the bright side, the butter buns were fantastic -- so good I ordered extra. Our server was friendly and attentive, keeping our coffee and water topped up throughout the meal. read more

Today was my first visit to their waikiki location and it did not disappoint! I'm unsure how long the waffard (waffle custard) has been on the menu, but it was the perfect early morning breakfast with coffee! This liliha bakery location is definitely shinier than the others, but has a nice indoor and outdoor area, which offers a nice change compared to the usually bustle y diner feel of the original. Definitely easy to have a large group here, but they had a line by about 8:30am, so I'd prepare for that if you're not an early riser. The service was quick and friendly, and parking the international marketplace lot is comped for the first hour with validation. Definitely will be back to snag pastries if we're in the area! I think the prices are comparable to the other locations as well. read more

My favorite place to get simple breakfast. Beautiful garden area to eat it upstairs in the international market. My go to just a simple breakfast of pancake and side order of egg.

I came here for dinner and dessert. The restaurant was packed but my family and I didn't not have to wait for a table. The staff were kind and patient. We ordered the Grilled Mahi Mahi, Chicken Karaage, Miso Butterfish, 10oz Prime Rib and Guava Plantation Iced Tea. They gave us complimentary biscuits which were warm and absolutely delicious! The miso butterfish was on point! Super flaky and flavorful. The prime rib was a little more cooked than requested but it tasted good. The mahi mahi was not bad but I prefer the butterfish more. The chicken karaage would be my least favorite dish. It wasn't crispy and it was cold. I loved the guava iced tea. It was perfect for quenching my thirst. For dessert, I got Green Tea Puff, Coco Puff, Haupia Malasada and Poi Donut. My favorite was the Coco Puff and the Poi Donut. They were so yummy! However, I did not like the taste of the Haupia Malasada. I'd pick a different flavor next time. read more

Matcha cream puff and the poi donut are so good here! It's not too sweet and filled with its natural flavors. I would skip the cupcakes though, it was kind of dry. Besides the cream puff and the poi donut, this place doesn't really stand out to me with so many great bakeries and dessert places nearby. Service is alright, I felt like they could be a bit nicer. I was rushed and the staff gave me an attitude when I pointed out that she gave me the wrong item. read more

This is mine and husband's favorite place to get breakfast when we are vacationing in Waikiki! In the bakery, I love to get the mochi donuts & cream puffs! They are delicious! I even bought a jar of their raspberry jam to take home! Breakfast is always so delicious here! We usually order the pork belly plate & loco loco plate. We tried different plates this time and still loved it! Servers are very nice and attentive as well! Try not to feed the birds or they will all come to you at once. Would highly recommend sitting outside. read more

Service was ok! My drink, I ordered the wake up call. Smidgen overpriced imo and had to sweeten it up a bit, it was good. I ordered the smoked pork belly with eggs. I asked for them cooked fried over hard, they came over medium. I've lived that nightmare before, I didn't even try to stomach that. Took a long time to get someone/my waitress' attention but when I did, they were promptly corrected. The smoked pork belly was delicious and maybe a little too fatty but all the more tender. That dish is worth returning for! I ate outside and while the inside is not that big, doesn't matter because the patio allowed for fresh air and people watching. read more

We were recommended to try Likiha bakery, which serves breakfast all day! I was sad they no longer sell the eggs Benedict on their cornbread, as I'm sure their homemade cornbread would have been to die for. However, I went with the Denver Omelette, which came with their famous buttered roll, and it was delicious!! Our server was very attentive, and the vibes reminded me of a diner inside. Honestly a hidden gem in Waikiki, which I highly recommend you try for any meal of the day! read more

Always remember to bring home their famous puffs before leaving Hawaii. I also tried their poi donuts years ago, but I didn't taste much poi since it was sweet. It was chewy like mochi donuts. It was busy in the morning for a diner and a bakery. I had my last breakfast of Spam Omelette with a scoop of garlic fried rice and Guava Plantation Iced Tea a few hours before I headed back to San Jose. The Spam Omelette was packed with bell peppers, onions, and green onions. The garlic fried rice was delicious. Guava Plantation Tea was more like guava juice mixed with black tea. You can't find this type of breakfast on the mainland, not even in their Hawaiian restaurants. The service was alright despite a 20-minute wait. I love the atmosphere of this location. They have a nice display of baked goods, from cakes to pastries and buns. After breakfast, I bought half a dozen Coco Puffs. It didn't melt much during my five-hour flight, and it's best to store it for three days in an airtight container in the refrigerator. read more

The food at Liliha bakery was amazing. The cinnamon roll was really good, but the bacon was kind of greasy. I loved their pancakes and they have a really good poi Ube doughnut. The service was really good. They let me take my time when I ordered because it took me long to decide, do I want the glazed doughnut or the cinnamon roll, and they were kind about it. We were seated outside, but it was amazing. It wasn't so hot. They had fans everywhere blowing a pool air and a really cool thing was their cups. I thought Lily Hall bakery was really well and I recommended if you're traveling to Oahu. read more

This location has a nice, large space. With a large party, we were seated within 15 minutes or so on a Friday night, so not bad! Service was prompt. Waters were delivered quickly. They took the drink orders with food orders - I personally think you should take drink orders first, especially as I like to enjoy my alcohol for a bit before food arrives. Not a big deal. After ordering food and drinks, baskets of butter rolls were dropped off. Love the buttery delicious rolls with bright red jelly. We got a lot of them too. Yum!! I ordered the prime rib French dunk. Good amount of meat, soft bun, and yummy as jus. Loved it. I only wished there were fries because the potatoes just aren't the same to go with a sandwich. My kids got the garlic fried rice and pancakes. Both were so good! So much garlicky goodness and the pancakes were tasty and on point. Would definitely recommend this location! read more

BOOM SHAKA LAKA this is my review of liliha bakery! overall really good pastries, a tad overpriced, and quite touristy. that's okay cause i'm a tourist too and proud of it!! coco puffs were not too sweet. i lowkey don't know what type of filling they use (probably coconut obviously) but it tastes like a very soft frangipane. but coconut version. the original is okay, the dubai chocolate one was really good! had a good amount of pistachio knafeh filling. croissant was alright - also not too sweet. couldn't taste the green tea. the hotdog roll was BOMB. BOOM SHAKA LAKA!!! the glizzy was yummy with the sriracha mayo drizzle. service was fast, you are personally served by them if you are getting takeaway. it is by a number system. it is on the third floor of some mall, pretty easy to find. if you can't find the mall just look for the GIANT teslas at the entrance. aka the little goblins of musky ahh crusty ahh elon musk. read more

They're located on the third floor of the International Market Place, with plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors. The atmosphere is great, and our waitress was excellent--my water glass was never empty. They started us off with sweet rolls and a delicious guava & raspberry dipping sauce.

My wife ordered the two-piece fried chicken, and our waitress surprised her by adding an extra piece at no charge. Before we left, we checked out their bakery section, which had so many tempting options. Unfortunately, I was way too full to try anything--but I definitely will next time! read more

My girlfriend and I met up for a walk tonight and we ended up in Waikiki. Due to the rainy season we decided to come here for dinner and both ordered the oxtail soup! It was the right meal as it was cold and damp from the rain. Service a 10 as we were seated immediately and water was brought to us after we sat down. Our meal came within 15 minutes. Server kept checking in with us and the ambiance is beautiful in the evening! Give this location a thought for great service and good home cooked meals. read more

I came across this bakery walking around and thought about sitting down having brunch but was just more so interested in just the pastries. The bakery is located at the top. There's escalators and if you locate the elevator it's probably best to take that as it is the closet to the bakery. Also tip, if you have a vehicle there's parking. That is a big plus considering it's absolutely difficult to locate parking in the area. As soon as I entered, I immediately checked the menu. No pastry really stood out to me but upon trying what I ordered it was delicious. The texture was very soft, chewy, and not too sweet where it's overwhelming. read more
