I finally ate here after seeing it a bunch of times at the farmers market in Kailua. I tried the blueberry scones which was light, flavorful and delicate. I also tried the peanut butter and chocolate brownies which was the BOMB! They were chewy and moist. The best I have ever tried. I'll have to go again (dislike the parking situation), and try the other products. But, definitely 5 stars for price and flavor. read more

Met Tiare way back about 4 or so years ago... and ever since I saw her individual sized mochi cakes and took my 1st bite... Mmmmmmm.... if I'm free I make an attempt to get her Coconut Butter Mochi... that's a nice size perfect for one person... it's not too much to eat a whole pan and not too small to eat just a piece... da buggah is jus rite! Another fav of mines that she does well in is these ice cream sandwiches that are a ice cream and cookie junkies dream! Especially Da Grasshopper! I'm a total geek for Mint Chocolate Chip and put her well baked cookies on either side of that and viola Da Grasshopper! She usually makes these for the Eat the Street events or others but not at the Farmer's Markets, but if you see her sign for the Da Grasshopper you bettah hop on dat! You can find No Ka Oi Cookie Company at the Ward Farmer's Market on Wed, the Sat KCC Farmer's Market, the Eat the Street events and sometimes at the Night Market events! I do believe she's also on the Windward side but I've never been to any out there but if you have not tried any of Tiare's baked goods... GOOD, More for meh! Kidding, you just missing out so catch Tiare and her delicious, tasty, ono baked goods to Grind On! Pau! read more

It was my first time at No Ka 'Oi Cookie Company at Makers & Tasters last night. I'm not too into sweets. My husband wanted to try them out. There was a line, but it wasn't that long. We waited for about five minutes. The hubby ordered a brownie sundae. He chose the cookies & cream ice cream, topped with chocolate syrup, whipped cream, rainbow sprinkles, all on top of a chocolate brownie. I took three bites and I was done. It was so dang sweet I could feel the diabetes coming on. They also sell pastry items such as scones and butter mochi. I'm wiling to go back and try the pastries, but pass on the brownie sundae. read more

Check out her website for her menu and contact info! read more

No Ka Oi Cookie Company makes everything it seems from butter mochi to cookies to brownies. They use premium ingredients and the taste is fantastic! I've passed their stall a couple times at various farmer's market, but I finally stopped by to take a look at their stuff last night at the Farmer's market at the Blaisdell center. I bought their chewy chocolate brownie for $3. They use local Waialua chocolate and sometimes Madre chocolate. The texture, the taste, the smell in one word: Amazing. The brownie is crunchy on the outside and chewy and moist on the inside. Absolutely fantastic! Plus, the brownie is a lot bigger than I expected, so it was $3 well spent! The only sad part is that they are only located at the farmer's market and I can't just walk into a shop and pick up goodies whenever I want. I hope you guys open up a shop soon! I'm craving your baked goods already~ read more

I first saw this place at Eat the Streets and I finally tried it at the SALT Night Market. This is a review only for the one item I had, the cookies and cream ice cream sandwich. It was $7 which is pricey, but not ridiculous. The sheer size of the sandwich is amazing. It looked like almost half a pint. Made for great photos, but I feel like that the novelty is over for me and I would not have the same thing again. The cookie was not super chewy or crispy, a good texture. Although the quantity was satisfying, the actual ice cream was just average for me, nothing I haven't had before. So I would be open to try something else they have next time... but sharing it. read more

A co-worker told me about these amazing brownies that she buys from No Ka Oi Cookie Company at the NBC Farmer's Market on the second and fourth Wednesdays of each month. So I tried them. Oh my goodness!!! These are the BEST brownies ever! Moist, chewy, crispy at the corners, and not sickeningly, throw up sweet. There are 3 kinds: triple chocolate, Reese's peanut butter cup (my personal favorite), and nuts and caramel drizzle brownies. Even my sigificant other, who doesn't care for brownies, ate them and raved about them! A definite MUST TRY! Woo hoo! Here is No Ka Oi Cookie Company's schedule: KCC Farmer's Market NBC Farmer's Market 2nd & 4th Wedesday 4 - 7 p.m. Kailua Farmer's Market Thursdays 5 - 7:30 p.m. Mililani Farmer's Market 2nd & 4th Sunday's 8 - 11 a.m. Eat the Street Kaka'ako & Mililani Last Fridays of the month and Saturdays read more

While browsing through Instagram one slow day at work, I was smitten by a photo of a GIANT cookie ice cream sandwich from No Ka 'Oi... At that point, I became DETERMINED to get one from Eat The Street that night! When I finally got to the tent, the entire selection looked utterly appealing, so I went with the brownie & mint chocolate chip ice cream instead (two of my favorite desserts)! The workers were exceptionally kind & handed me my decadence totaling $6.50. Let me tell you, the portion was the equivalence of TWO softballs. It probably SHOULD have been split (holy calorific), but I ate nearly all of it & shared a little with my BF because, well, he did pay for it. :3 I emphasize health & fitness so this was an ultimate cheat snack, & I -may- have been a bit deprived (OK.. A LOT), but the first bite tasted like Heaven on Earth! The ice cream was perfectly creamy & luscious! Even though it was the end of the day, the brownie was still chewy & rich with a crispy egde, probably one of the best brownies on the island. Completely satisfied my annoying sweet tooth. I will have this again, some day, & recommend to any sugar indulgers to give it a try! :D read more

My first visit to No Ka Oi Cookie Company was during an "Eat the Street" event last year. I was craving something sweet for dessert, and it was my very first "Eat the Street" that I ever attended. It was a hot summer night in August, and No Ka Oi Cookie Company came to the rescue. I had been eyeing those delectable ice cream sandwiches throughout the evening, and I eventually caved and bought one. And, I'm pleased to say that it was worth every penny of the $7 I spent. $7 might seem pricy for an ice cream sandwich, but these colossal creations are huge. You definitely get your money's worth. I feel like each cookie ice cream sammie has three scoops of ice cream in them. There are other treats you can get here, including brownie and regular ice cream sundaes. I ended up getting the brownie sundae during another "Eat the Street" event. But this company made a good impression on me from day one because they didn't skimp on portion size, and their cookies were really good! I look forward to seeing No Ka Oi Cookie Company at other "Eat the Streets," and I have yet to check them out at the Blaisdell and Mililani farmers markets as well ... I heard you can get scones, cookies, brownies and other baked goods at those events. But, the cookie ice cream sandwiches are only sold at "Eat the Street." Here's what I got: "OREO" sandwich: During my visit, there were several different cookie ice cream sandwich flavors: OREO, Grasshopper (mint), Original (with vanilla ice cream) and Kona Coffee. I was torn between OREO and Kona Coffee, but one of the workers said the OREO flavor usually sells out first and is one of the most popular flavor. I do love cookies and cream, so I tried the OREO sandwich during my first visit. WOW ... just wow. The ice cream was sufficiently creamy (I'm not sure if it was vanilla bean or not), and while it wasn't super studded with cookie chunks, I really liked the taste of it anyway. There was definitely a lot of ice cream in that sandwich, and it satisfied my need for something sweet. I was surprised at how soft and chewy the cookies were, for being so thin. Because of their thinness, I thought they would be soft and crunchy, but I was pleasantly surprised to discover how chewy they actually were. I can't wait to taste the Kona Coffee flavor next time. "Brownie Sundae": I'm a chocolate fiend, and the brownies from No Ka Oi Cookie Company are LEGIT. I love fudgy, chewy, soft and gooey brownies, and these definitely deliver. I had a brownie sundae during another "Eat the Street" event, and I opted for vanilla ice cream on one of the triple chocolate brownies. So delicious. The brownie sported the perfect consistency and texture; it was chewy and not too cakelike. That, paired with the rich and creamy ice cream, made for the perfect dessert. You can also get these brownies at the farmers markets; flavors vary, based on availability. During a different visit, I was able to try the peanut butter brownie and it was yummy as well. But, that triple chocolate brownie is sure to please any chocoholic. "Gooey Peanut Butter": This is one cookie I haven't seen yet, but I'm dying to try. I love peanut butter, and this cookie is supposed to be chewy and soft on the inside, but buttery and rich all over. The clincher is that it has chocolate and peanut butter chips spread throughout. If I ever see these cookies at the farmers market ... I'm going to get some, no questions asked. "Chocolate Chip Lovers": Apparently this is a best seller when it comes to cookies, so I can't wait to try it sometime. It features a premium blend of chocolate chips and is supposed to be buttery, sweet and contain a slightly crispy crunch. Since the other cookies I've tried so far have been chewy and soft, here's to hoping the traditional chocolate chip one is the same. read more

By far the best baked goods on the island and I be them all. From her butter mochi to her ice cream sandwiches. She doesn't have a shop so you have to hunt her down at the different farmers market, but trust me, it's worth it. You can get some of her baked goodies at Yama's on Young St. I've used her for big orders and small orders of cookies and the quality of her cookies is consistent. This is my go to place for my sweet tooth. Thank you Tiare! read more

I wandered over to the No Ka 'Oi tent at an Eat the Street event. Oh, brownies? Why, yes, brownies are my favorite dessert! You heard me, FAVORITE. Not cupcakes. Brownies. Yeah, sure, what's this fancy mac nut caramel brownie, I'll get one. *Planets align. Comets explode. Shooting stars dance in the sky* = A REVELATION. -- this happens every time I eat one of their fancy brownies. THESE ARE THE BEST JFS(#%-ing BROWNIES EVER. EEEVVERRRR. Graahhhhh. I can't, it's just, *gets down on knees* oh gawd, thank you. Thank you! read more

Ive seen No KA Oi at eat the street and we found out that they do corporate events. They can tailor make a menu of goodies to accommodate your party or event. Mr. Nakayama and Tiare came in to our office with two large freezers and set up everything for our corporate meeting. They were so friendly and nice to all of our staff. Great event and look forward to our next engagement with No Ka Oi! read more

NO KA OI COOKIE COMPANY....I love you!!! Can I just end my review right there? I went to the Blaisdell Farmer's Market yesterday and just happen to pass by this booth. I usually don't like to try new baked goods, cuz usually they're not to my liking. But after looking at what they had to offer, I decided to take one home. I got a peanut butter chocolate brownie. It was like a mini brownie cake...that's how big it was. After dinner I took it out of the bag and got my spoon and cut into it. Expecting it to be all hard I was amazIngly surprised when my spoon went in smoothly into the brownie. After one bite, I was hooked. It was exacly how I like my brownies...soft and chewy with a crunchy/chewy corner. What's best about this brownie is you get all four corners to yourself. There was one thing I wished I had done before I DEVOURED this brownie...warm it up in the micro. OMGOSH, now that I think about it, I should've added a scoop of vanilla ice cream with it....O M G!!!! I am definitely going back to this farmers market to grab more of these goodies for my family to try. Yes, I devoured them all by myself. Don't let the cost deter you from buying. For each brownie of goodness it's $3.50, but it is sooo worth it. This place is a MUST!!!!! read more

If you are a picky classic brownie junkie, who has to have the crisped-topped edges and a chewy but not gooey brownie w/chocolatey chunks, then it is worth hunting them down at Eat the Street. They were so amazing and fresh I picked up some extra to take home, froze them and then cut them up still frozen into smaller slices to serve a few days later with some powdered sugar sprinkled on it and it was a hit. Warning these brownies are super supah sized. If sliced, each brownie will serve 2-3 normal portions. Not crumbly, and not too sweet and as other yelpers testified, in a class by itself. It is everything a brownie ought to be. read more

Her Brownies are Great and BIG. My only suggestion will be to update your website and add all your products there as well. read more

Moneyball: I prefer salty snacks or treats versus sweet foods, but No Ka 'Oi Cookie Company's products make me keep going for more! I ordered treats to make holiday gift baskets...I haven't actually been out to any of the events or fairs to have their food yet, but based on the photos and other reviews I'm going to have to! I ordered the butter mochi, brownies, chocolate chip cookies, chocolate mac nut cookies, butterscotch cookies, and these s'more treats, all are great but the s'mores are absolutely dominant. I typically reach for chips or other salty snacks but I can't stop eating these s'mores! read more

I have been gobbling down Tiare Nakayama No Ka Oi Cookies for the past two weeks, and cannot stop! Crunchy, light and just the best as you get. I am sending them for Xmas presents in paks of all the assorted flavors, but I seem to favor the oatmeal raisins and cornflake ones most, though I like the Mac Nut chocochip ones too. She gave me a couple of samples of the peanut butter ones, but I have not eaten them yet...will review those later! Highest recommendation for this relatively new company...DA BEST! read more

Chocolate Brownie for $3. Nice & thick! Crunchy on the sides & soft/delicious in the middle.

I don't usually write reviews, but for the most AMAZING brownies, I will! These are THE best brownies I have ever had in my life (and I've had tons). Perfectly moist inside with perfect crisp edges. Just a delicious chocolate delight! We love the triple chocolate caramel nut one. I tried her brownies for the first time a few months ago and needless to say, was addicted. I go to the market religiously just to get a bunch of her brownies to take home. (She's only there every 2nd and 4th Wednesday) A must try! read more

Here at Eat the Street I kept walking past people eating ice cream monstrosities or delectable treats ala mode style with a huge scoop of various ice creams. I finally tracked the tent down to this company and bought a $6.50 a piece treat of a Kona ice cream chocolate chip cookie sandwich with 3 inches width of pure ice cream; and a 4 inch by 4 inch snore bar with a humongous scoop of a selected rocky road ice cream. There were also a selection of toppings for .50 a piece. I thought they were okay priced and the baked goods were gooey, soaked in deliciousness treats! Both were shared with the rest of the family. Very yummy indeed! read more

I tried these cookies and soon realized the whole bag was gone!!! Words can't describe how amazing these cookies were. Every bite was filled with awesome chocolate chips and the taste and texture of these crisp, delectable bits of heaven was perfect. Best cookies ever. Seriously. They should come with a warning..."Highly Addictive!!" read more

No Ka Oi---the best! the cookies are delicious, and fresh. Using premium ingredients and baking with "tender loving care" is her secret! And I bet you cannot just eat one cookie. Try it for yourself...as soon as you take that first bite, you will agree with me that they are wonderfully delicious. read more
