The food and drinks were really good: -Island Style Plate: Very fresh and satisfying, complete with eggs, savory portuguese sausage, fresh papaya, avocado, a side salad, and grilled asparagus. -Braised Beef Loco Moco: Super rich and flavorful comfort food with tender braised beef and fluffy eggs over rice. Drinks: The iced matcha latte was smooth and perfectly balanced, and the mango smoothie was refreshingly sweet and vibrant. Definitely a 5-star visit--we'll certainly be coming back.

The macadamia nut coffee was delicious too, and they even had a whole selection of coffee creamers right on the table, which was such a great touch.

The alternative is to do takeout which is just as good! It's fast, and the food is just as good at home as it is in the restaurant. The prices are reasonable, being that you're getting a great meal with good ingredients and supporting a nice little local business spot. Our food costs were $25-$19 per meal and it was worth it. Super tasty, and especially loved the chorizo gravy on the country fried steak!

Rocky's Coffee Shop is kinda like the "Cheers" of coffee shops…read more As I sat at the counter gazing at the specials menu on the wall a nice gentleman next to me says hi. We talk story, woman comes and gives me a menu, asks if I want coffee. I get the coffee and place my order. Smokemeat fried rice omelette and short stack banana pancakes. Everyone on the counter, except me, is addressed by their name (towards each other as well). One guy gets a honi as he leaves. Others are greeted by name as they enter. Brah! Das neighborhood coffee shop. I also know now why the banana pancakes are so darn good. I watched her place chunks of both mashed and whole pieces of bananas all over the batter as it cooked on the grill. Filled the whole circle.

I've been here multiple times, and honestly, the service was usually just okay. But this time, our waiter was super friendly and attentive, which really made a difference in the overall experience. The restaurant is pretty spacious, but it can get loud when it's busy. I ordered the mushroom omelette, which was good, but let's be real--I mainly come here for the toast and that red jelly. That combo is always my favorite!

Great food and great service, what more can I say about Lilia Bakery? They opened here years ago, I…read morejust wish they would open more location and not just in town (but it makes sense, they go where the tourists are, I'm just glad they opened here in pearl city). The restaurant is nice and clean but heads up they don't have restrooms. They said you actually have to leave and use the food courts next door. Anyways, their food is always excellent. I decided to treat myself to their pork belly breakfast, omg it was so delicious. Though it is a bit pricey, sometimes it's good to treat yourself. Their rolls are excellent as usual, my only complaint their coffee cups are so small. If you're gonna give small cups, please leave the pitcher lol. Now for their bakery, they are known for their coco puffs but they have so much more! Cream puffs, cupcakes, etc. though they are also kind of expensive, i still walked out with a non shameful amount lol.

Second and last time coming to this location. We overlooked our first visit when my wife was done…read moreeating and I still hadn't gotten my food yet. It was the weekend and busy. But our second time was a mellow Wednesday for lunch and while the timing was better (still not synced), the food was either meh or completely shameful. Yes, shameful! Wife got the Caesar salad with char siu chicken katsu. The chicken was ono but the salad was lazy. Basic greens with a low-quality bottled sauce squeezed on top. No wonder it came out five minutes before mine. I got the fish tacos with tots (extra $2), and this dish was the most egregious rip off I've ever seen in a restaurant. No wonder the server dropped it and ran. For $18, I got three street taco-sized flour tortillas, goopy mayo-laden "slaw", and pico with a teeny tiny piece of fish on top. See the pics! Smaller than my thumb. Barely two tater tots in size. And because it was plopped into mayo slaw, it was soggy on arrival. The fish was also suspiciously fishy tasting. I debated eating it. I ended up making one taco with all the fish and a potato taco with some tots before finally giving up. I know things are tough for restaurants right now. But this was ridiculous. I paid and left and called it a lesson learned. I'll likely stick to the Pucks Alley location from now on. Still some pride in what they serve there.

It is quite small in there but they really maximize their space with the bar. The food was great. You can tell they make the food to order so everything is nice and fresh! We got the ube haupia French toast, the crab cake Benedict and the bansilog. I think I enjoyed the carb cake Benedict the most with the sweet potato fries. They make the food very aesthetic with the cute flower. Although it took us a little while to figure out what we wanted, the ladies were super nice and didn't rush us. It was a great experience overall.

Everything looked appealing and appetizing to the eye, but we were met with disappointment on multiple dishes. With Da Bite, you get a flight of three smaller portions of entrees: 1) the waygu loco moco meat was overcooked and the gravy was just salty; 2) crab benedict was more breading than crab so once you bit in, it was quite mealy underneath the initial crunch. The lack of crab could easily go unnoticed when smothered in sauce. 3) Ube pancakes with ube marscapone... the marscapone was delicious, but the pancakes lacked fluff and moisture. The kids pancakes also had the similar spongey dry texture and my nephew chose to only eat half the portion. We also had the Longsilog, which is a sweet sausage, but it was overly sweet for my taste. All in all, the food was just all right for the hype. Maybe we would've enjoyed it better if we hadn't already experienced better versions of similar menu items that set the bar earlier on the trip.

4.5 / 5 for Kountry Style Kitchen!…read more I absolutely LOVED Kountry Style Kitchen. We ate the Loco Moco and the Macadamia Nut Pancakes and it was SO delicious. I would say that if you've got a small appetite, sharing these two dishes is a perfect balance between sweet and savory--my husband and I shared both and we ended up taking some home! The only downside, I would say, is that the food is pretty pricey, and during our meal, the waitresses did take a while to come/circle back to us and forgot a couple of things so we sat and waited for a while after finishing our food for our check, hence the .5 stars off. Overall, we thought the food was amazing and I would come back again!
