Great food, kind staff. I had the omelet special which came with crispy hash browns that were so good and a fluffy pancake that was delicious. The omelet was great too. Full of toppings and flavor and cooked just right. Come hungry, it's a lot of food. read more

Breakfast fried rice is great. Chicken fried steak is also great. Great service nice place close to the water

This place is a very nice hole in the wall restaurant very popular with some of the locals and busy Had the steak and eggs. Cook to perfection in my opinion my friend had the loco moco and she really enjoyed it. I say this place is a must try. The service was good. Could use some work in my opinion but still good read more

Walkable cafe close to our hotel. Great location. The place itself unassuming, small & inviting. Our server was incredibly sweet and the food was good. As expected for breakfast. Nothing fancy. read more

We found this place on Yelp and the comments all tended to be correct. Decent food, good service and just a small, hole in the wall place with that hole-in-the-wall vibe. It was a little quiet, but the music they had playing was awesome! read more

I've been here a few times before but my recent experience today was not what I was expecting and quite disappointing to be honest. My husband and I had ordered the same thing. Our portions though were quite different this time around. We ordered the loco moco and it was more a bowl of literal gravy than anything else and the smallest scoop of rice buried deep underneath all that gravy. This is actually one of our favorite dishes here so it felt like we were served soup. My husband noticed that the patty was cut in half and mine was as well and so what they did was serve one portion to two people. I think that's a pretty cheap thing to do. Not sure if we will be coming back. I don't appreciate feeling cheated paying for two meals but getting really one. read more

Food and service is always great. Cozy little Cafe, with a big heart. If you leave here hungry, it's your own fault.

I've never thought someone could perfect and master one's taste buds. The service is incredible and the atmosphere is fun. It tastes just like my mothers cooking!! I'm surprised because I'm from the south, I've never ever tasted such a place that left me grinning like the grinch!!!! read more

Sweet little spot for breakfast. The service was good and the food even better. Big hearty portions! We ordered the Loco Moco and an Ultimate Omelette. I would recommend this spot if you're looking for a quiet little diner with good food. read more

Went here early on a Saturday morning when they opened. This joint was quiet and service was great! We ordered the biscuits and gravy plate and the bacon and eggs plate. The biscuit was really good but the gravy, which is homemade, lacked flavor. The sausage Pattie's were super thin and not to tasty. The over medium eggs were overcooked and the bacon was like eating jerky! But I would recommend the hashbrowns, they are freshly grated, crispy on the outside and nice and soft on the inside. A little pricey for a breakfast that was not up to par for the price they charge. Don't think we will be returning. read more

I don't give bad reviews often but this was so disappointing. I got the dinner seafood basket. Menu on yelp says it comes with 2 fried oysters,fish, clams, and Tempura shrimp. There were no oysters, the fried shrimp was not tempura battered, and the calms so tough I couldn't bite through them. The clams were honestly the toughest I've ever had. I could not eat them. No salt on the fries, so if you order from here and want salt request it while ordering. The only thing we received that was pleasant were the chicken tenders. I won't be ordering from here again read more

What a great little place to share a quiet breakfast with someone! We wandered in the other morning and had a great experience and found a few things we wanted to come back and try. Great serving sizes and so many options for your meal. The food tasted homemade and that's so rare these days. read more

1st we tried a couple different things but the winner was chicken katsu. it does cost but they do give a good amount for what you pay.

Excellent service for a small place. Very peaceful environment. Food was okay. Nothing to complain about but nothing to brag about either. We primarily ordered American food. read more

So disappointed with the Loco Moco They serve a hamburger patty not even close to a traditional Hawaiian Loco Moco. The sauce is ok but they poor so much, it over powers any other taste. Other dishes are ok but ones again over power by the sauce. If you are looking for traditional Hawaiian food there's better options. read more

Great little diner in a great location! Mina's has a huge menu, offering not only all-day breakfast but also a full lunch menu. But not only that, they have a large selection of Korean / Asian foods as well - such as teriyaki, katsu, and stir-fries. Pretty much everything Mina cooks is good. Today we shared the chicken katsu as well as a BLT. Both were perfectly made and very tasty. One of the things I like about the katsu is it's clearly breaded freshly, with a nice thick layer of breading. The BLT was about the best BLT around, if you like a truly classic BLT - not some snotty interpretation - just lots of super-crisp bacon, large tomato slices and crunchy lettuce. Best BLT I've had anywhere in Port Orchard. Prices are reasonable, service was really good, and there's a terrific view of Sinclair Inlet from the tables. Great little diner that offers a lot more than just diner food! And nice to have another good restaurant choice in downtown Port Orchard read more

From an actual person who is from Hawaii... Apparently today is the first day they opened, and I happened to walk in and who would have thought Port Orchard would serve local (Hawaiian) food. So lets break it down: This place actually serves a lot of diverse dishes, not mainly Hawaiian Food. I only ate one item off the menu and it was the Loco Moco as thats what I love to try when a place says they have Hawaiian food. Overall? The Loco Moco was great! Actually quite surprised. It was hot too (temp wise) gravy was great and eggs cooked to my liking. Didnt give any mac salad when I ate but it was fine. Try it with Tabasco (red) and you are set. Will try and come back for more items read more

The best teriyaki in Port Orchard! The beef teriyaki especially is amazing. And their breakfast is so good too! Chicken fried steak, eggs Benedict, fluffy pancake, all so good! This is our new favorite place. It's a small shop so service can take an extra minute or two, but not slow by any means. Love that they have a variety of foods that are all good, and nothing is too salty, my biggest pet peeve at restaurants. We'll be coming back to try out everything on their menu. Burgers next! read more

Oh dear God what an odd little place. I don't know whether to give them one star because the overall experience sends you away shaking your head and saying, "never again", or three stars because they were trying to make it right. They got two. Rolled in about 5:00 p.m. with 3 friends. None of us had ever been to Mina's. The place is on the side of a strip mall, it's tiny and it's empty. Gives me a bad feeling even before I'm out of the car. Immediately I'm struck by the barren décor of the place. I mean it's one rung above a prison dining room. Waitress brings us menus. They are printed with black ink on blue paper, reading them could hardly be more difficult. Then...OMG it's breakfast, lunch, Korean AND Asian Fusion?? WTF? Who thought food from ump-teen different cultures or cuisines was a brilliant business model? Somehow the four of us settle on one Teriyaki entrée or another. Our choices would come back to haunt us. The minutes roll by, drinks come fairly quickly. Everything else...slooowly. Very, very slooowly. Finally our salads show up. Yup, ya get your typical green salad that you would get at any teriyaki joint, that's iceberg lettuce with a piece of carrot and honey-mustard dressing. I becomes evident that there is ONE employee in the whole place. She's hostess/waitress/cook/busser/you-name-it. Nearly an hour into the process we learn that they have no rice cooked so our dinner is being held hostage by the rice cooker. This could have been explained at the start. "Folks, you're welcome to order any Asian entrée but we have no rice tonight. May I substitute something for rice"?? But our Amazonian hostess/waitress/cook/busser/etc (though pleasant) is not especially communicative. In the mean time a couple of other people wander in. One obviously a regular. He orders (patty melt), eats, and is gone long before we ever get our food. Thankfully we get drink refills but the minutes are ticking off, we are well past 6:00 and there's no dinner in sight. Somewhere around 6:30 the sound of chopping is heard from the kitchen. C'mon, the kitchen is mere steps away, you can hear everything. One of my companions says, "sounds like someone might be chopping up teriyaki chicken". Moments later WHOMP there it is! One of the BIGGEST plates of teriyaki chicken I've ever been served. I wonder if our hostess/waitress/cook/busser hasn't doubled up on the food as a way of apologizing for an hour and a half wait for a dinner that any teriyaki joint could crank our in under ten minutes. The chicken was actually good. I'd try it again (except I am NEVER going back to Mina's). The fried rice was a sad mess. Over-fried in places (as in burned) and containing what looked like almost every vegetable in the kitchen. We ate some and took the remainder to go. How in bloody Hell Mina's has a 4-out-of-5-star rating I'll never know. Maybe the secret is to order breakfast, or to order the daily special, or a burger. Anyway when you go there...if you go there...take someone who's a good conversationalist, you'll have time to fill... and make sure your schedule is open 'cause you might be there a while. Or perhaps cut a deal with your server when you place your order. Something like, "the food's here in 15 minutes or we're walkin". read more

I have a painfully restrictive diet and when I'm traveling I crave fresh, good food which is nearly impossible to find. We went to Mina's with low expectations with the "I'll just have some coffee and toast, I'll be fine..." but was BLOWN away by the great food. It's REAL food, not the (way too common) freezer to fryer fare offered for "brunch" almost everywhere. The home fries were DREAMY. The coffee was good. The teriyaki katsu beef was STUNNING. I could not have been happier. The food I saw co ing out of the kitchen looked great, too. The super friendly and welcoming service was the cherry on the cake of my morning. I'm sure the locals are all over this place, but if your'e traveling and are wondering where the secret spot for great food is... well, you found it. read more

It took over an hour for our food to come, I understand being short staffed but it took 30 mins to get our drinks then another 40~ to get our food. The customer service was okay, below par if anything. The waitress accidentally spilt a juice on one of the people I was eating with. They were friendly though. Even though the food took a very long time to get there my sandwich wasn't that great, there was more vegetables than meat when it should be the opposite. It does have nice paintings though! But I wouldn't recommend. read more

Stopped in for brunch. Nothing fancy. Chicken fried steak was previously frozen, hidden with gravy. Omelette was best option. read more

LOVE this place! We've lived in Port Orchard about 4 years and Mina's is our favorite eatery. Their omelets are the best ever and their teriyaki is heavenly! So glad you can buy the teriyaki sauce & house dressing; they are both incredible. The servers are very friendly and the little cafe is always clean & tidy. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place!

Best Food in Port Orchard Hands-down!! Impressed is an understatement. The Cuisine is unmatched, the staff is like family, and the huge portions are beyond satisfactory. Be sure to order the Yakisoba.. It will amaze!! read more

This place is by far the best place to get breakfast in Port Orchard. Their biscuits and gravy is the best I've ever had. They even have breakfast fried rice which is a plus since my wife doesn't like eggs. They also serve breakfast all day. No place in town even comes close. It's a no frills place but I assure everyone that the food makes up for it. read more

After traveling to Hawaii and eating at local spots, this place really gets about as close as it gets to Hawaii time. We love the chicken Katsu and portions are enormous. I will definitely continue to eat here. Thank you mina's cafe read more

Huge variety of great meals...from huge breakfasts, to awesome Terriyaki, and oh-don't-forget the BEST handmade milkshakes that are a meal in itself! Definitely a hidden gem in PO! read more

Great breakfast! Perfect eggs. Fluffy pancakes! Ham and bacon were excellent! Thumbs up! read more

We have loved this place from the very start but the last few times we've been here the standards have gone way down. There have been issues with the food the last few times we've ordered from here. We just kept hoping they were just having a bad day. Today was the final straw. The portions were absolutely tiny and to top it all off (or not to...) there was only half a bun for my burger! We will not be back. read more

This place has awesome food! I grew up on Korean food and this place not only serves awesome breakfast but I'm able to order Bibimbap with a side of cucumber kimchi! I've ordered this dish at Korean restaurants and they don't even come close in comparison to Mina's. read more

Tried their Loco Moco to go and I liked it quite a bit despite the fact I had to leave it in my car for an hour while I got sidetracked buying groceries afterward. Will come back to try a Korean dish next. Next time I go there, I'll make sure to get some pictures of where it's actually located, since most pics on Google and such are old enough that the restaurant isn't even there. read more

Best food in town hands down.love new spot downtown very nice good scenery looking at the bay very nice

Of all the little "Mom and Pop" teriyaki places I've tried in Port Orchard, Silverdale and Bremerton since moving here from Hawaii, Mina's is the best! Her chicken katsu is EXCELLENT, being SO tasty that I wonder if she marinates the chicken first. Huge, meaty, boneless thighs have a great crispy coating. Spicy pork teriyaki and her mac salad are other favorites. Her homemade Kim chi (either cabbage or cucumber) are also very tasty. This is now my "go to" place for plate lunch style, good portion meals. read more

I decided to try Mina's Cafe tonight. Got take out and it was wonderful. Service was fast and friendly and the food was excellent. I got the shrimp yaki soba and the chicken teriyaki. I will definitely be back ! read more

The best value and best teriyaki chicken in Port Orchard. Been to most all others in town.

For a small cafe, near the water now (yay!) Mina's is back. This is a owner who cooks with heart. For a simple breakfast, lunch or dinner- this is a great place to go. I have found Mina to be very accommodating to my requests which makes this place a return visit. Great to see her continuing to work her magic. Thank you for the water bowl outside!! Our mastiff appreciates it! read more

We found Mina's Cafe yesterday. I am thinking I may go back today again. Very good! We tried the teriyaki pork and chicken. Both were delicious. Also tried the chicken katsu - it is better than I have had anywhere in the area. They make it fresh with thigh meat instead of breast, so it is juicy and tasty! They have a good egg roll also. Everything tasted fresh. The only slight let-down was the Mac salad - it was fresh, but a bit sweet for me. I am excited to try there breakfast items. Bonus: they are open on Sunday! read more

This place is small but the food is amazing, never super crowded just good old fashion yummy food

A new place with LOCO MOCO on the breakfast menu. And breakfast is served all day! If you like Hawaiian plate lunches (or breakfast), this place is for you read more
