    Pastries

    Came here for a quick grab for brek. I got a blueberry muffin and a Coconut latte. Decent coffee and good pastry! My family liked their food as well. Veggie sammy was a fav of ours. Very limited seating inside. Service was amazing.

    Biscuits & Gravy with Sausage
    Suri S.

    We ordered the Biscuits and Gravy with Sausage, since I was craving some Southern food. Unfortunately this place was a miss for me. On the high note, the biscuits were crispy and buttery and the sausage was decent but sparse. On the low note, the gravy was under-seasoned and tasted bland to me which made the whole plate quite underwhelming. Maybe an off day, but we probably won't be back.

    While walking in Waikiki, we made a wrong turn, which brought our stroll to Duke's for breakfast into quite the hike. My crew and I happened upon the little gem. It's small and quaint, both indoors and out. The mood is utterly Hawaiian. Very chill and pleasant. The staff is so kind. The food was good. We got to celebrate and chat outside with others enjoying their birthdays on the isle too.

    Kimchi fried rice
    Keanna W.

    Sunny's Local Grind in Honolulu was very satisfying overall. The kimchi fried rice was flavorful and the portion was perfect. Very filling and satisfying without feeling too heavy. The steak sammie was really good. It almost complements a Philly cheesesteak in how the steak was cut and prepared, with peppers and cheese, but it definitely stood out on its own. The steak was cooked perfectly and the bread was soft and buttery, which made the whole sandwich come together really well. The banana bread latte the first time we had it was just okay, but on our second visit it was very good and had a great balance of all the flavors. The matcha was just okay. I sweetened it with vanilla, and only after swirling the drink did the vanilla come through--and even then, only temporarily--before it went back to tasting like flavorless green milk. Overall, the food is solid, filling, and satisfying. I'd definitely come back for the kimchi fried rice and steak sammie, but I'd skip the matcha next time.

    I was looking for breakfast with some substance bc I had a longgg day ahead of me. Ended up landing on sunny's and I'm so glad I did. Their menu contains a lot of the classic breakfast type plates w a local twist, but all along my eyes were set on a slamming breaky burrito, which is what I got. You see those pictures big dawg. That's their breakfast burrito w some good ol pordugee sausage sheeeesh. GAS STATION yall. Throw some chili pepper watah or whatever hot sauce. Gollllly. Now idk if this was a one off but when I went there was a modest line that was moving a bit slowly. But I mean, one wahine was working solo and taking orders, making coffees, serving food. I felt bad for her! She killed it tho. Go show some love.

    Trashcan Scramble
    Michael S.

    Well dang. That was really good. Had the Trashcan Scramble on tater tots. That was really enjoyable. Good size plate. Service was great too.

    Biscuits and Italian sausage gravy
    RJ O.

    This is a tiny little place off the beaten path in Waikiki. It's well known with the locals but you can find tourists there as well. It only seats maybe 10 people, but they deliver to a local bar down the road (Suzi Wong's...equally off the beaten path). The food at Sunny's is excellent. The moco loco and biscuits and gravy are some of the best we have had. The servers are friendly and work their butts off, so tip them well.

    Taste: 4/5 Value: 4/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Very nice spot to stop for breakfast! I'm usually not a coffee drinker but decided to get one here and I ended up loving it! My burrito was tasty and a decent size, something I'd consider ordering again. We were lucky to snag indoor seating during our visit, but space is limited since it's a small shop. Fortunately, there's outdoor seating nearby as well. The decor was charming and has local artwork. Very welcoming vibes from the interior and staff.

    Brekkie burrito with Portuguese sausage
    Kanani C.

    Went there for lunch on a Saturday. Awesome time, as there was no line and lots of seats. But also no biscuits and gravy. Fairly easy to find street parking. I could see how this place would be super busy in the morning, as the inside only seats about 8-10 people, while outside maybe 20 but you brave the weather and birds. Great service. Tried their garden omelet with wheat toast, breakfast burrito with Portuguese sausage, hot latte, and freshly squeezed lemonade. Im glad their food is not salty, but then it does need ketchup or something. The omelet and burrito tasted like what we'd make at home. Very comforting. Great knife skills, as everything was cut up into little pieces. Latte good but lemonade taste like they used the squeeze bottle lemon juice, so quite tart.

    A slight trek from central Waikiki, this little patio cafe is worth it. They serve such a wide variety of breakfast stables and they do it well. It is pretty small and I wish it had more indoor seating especially on a hot day like when I went but there is a fair amount of covered outdoor bench seating and two very small outdoor tables. They leave the door open to the cafe and what fan they do have doesn't fully cover the tables inside so it's hard to escape the heat. The sunrise tea is very tart and the banana bread latte was pretty weak flavor wise (tasted nothing like banana bread) but the coffee itself was strong. My mom enjoyed her avocado toast although $11 is a little steep for 1 slice of toast. The brekkie burrito is stuuuffed to the brim with bacon, pico de gallo, tater tots, egg, bell peppers, and onions, and was an explosion of flavor.

    Loco moco!
    Amanda K.

    Amazing, delicious, quick, friendly. We walked up to Aloha Cafe from our hotel to find it was fully packed with a line out the door waiting to be seated. We walked 350 feet further and found Sunny's Local Grind where we were able to walk right up and order! They have an amazing looking assortment of pastries, a solid menu, and legit coffee! My vanilla latte was very delicious alongside the loco moco. They have a small amount of seating inside and some nice seating under an awning outside which is where we sat and enjoyed! I love a successful accidental find and recommend that everyone waiting in line to Aloha Cafe walk on down to Sunny's! You won't be disappointed!

    Ube Latte and Haupia Coconut Latte
    Leira S.

    While looking for a local restaurant to enjoy a morning latte, but were heavily persuaded by the Loco Moco previously (and highly) reviewed here on yelp. What we ordered: Breakfast Burrito - The textures of all ingredients were gracefully balanced. When a breakfast burrito has tater tots it's always a good sign!!!! Loco Moco w/ Pork Belly Burnt Ends - The gravy is hands down some of the best i've EVER had. Alongside the tender pork belly with a sunny side up egg, was IMPECCABLE. Ube Latte - Rich in flavor in the best way possible. Haupia Coconut Latte - I love receiving a latte that's perfectly balanced with coffee notes and sweetness, for my it's been a really hard thing to find and this place nails it.

    Gwen A.

    Loved this place. Food was delicious and came out so fresh. We had to wait a bit for a food but it was worth the wait. I would definitely recommend this spot. The fresh lemonade was very refreshing. I also love the local art displayed on the walls of the shop.

First, the parking was big enough for our company truck and it is free! Second, the beers is probably the most affordable on this island, even when it's not "Happy Hour"! Third, all the pupus and many of the food on the menu is made fresh and with love... Thank you chef! The bartenders were all very very friendly, kind, easy to talk to and attentive. This is a very happy place, cozy and the TVs were located in the right place. Sit at the bar or the tables, you'll get great service. The oyster shooters is on another level!

Our waitress (I think her name was Teisha, I'm so sorry if that is not correct)- but she was AMAZING. So friendly and sweet and ensured that we were always taken care of. The food? AMAZING. Everything we ordered was delicious. I didn't get a pic of the Spicy Ahi Katsu or the Bacon Garlic Fried Rice- obvi I was too excited to get a bite of each to remember to take a pic. Our bellies were so full but I'll definitely be going back to try some of their other dishes! Their oyster shooters are also really good! We tried both the regular ones with quail eggs and the opihi one. We had the idea to combine both but it was kind of a lot to eat in one bite haha. But definitely recommend either! They have limu in it which I think adds a nice crunch and flavor to it overall. Oyster shooters are my absolute fav so I'm very pleased to find another location that makes great ones! They also have a karaoke room there!

The vibes are good with live music but the music is LOUD so be prepared you have to talk pretty loud to hear the people at your table. The gluten free menu is available but it is limited. The server was fantastic about answering questions and honestly she was the best part of the meal. I ordered the edamame and shrimp fried rice my mom ordered the Caesar salad. The portions are LARGE plenty for 3-4 people to split let alone two. Caesar salad was standard and good from what my mom told me. Edamame- I probably would not order this again. It was fine, but I didn't love the seasoning blend on it personally there are other things I would be interested in trying. Shrimp fried rice- I was really excited to try this and I was really hoping that it would be excellent and it was OK. The shrimp was cooked well and the fried rice just felt like it needed some more butter and it was lacking some of the things that make fried rice, fried rice like a fried egg so overall not my favorite dish. The gluten-free menu was pretty limited on options for me to try so I would probably go to somewhere else to try and get fried rice in the future.

I don't know if chicken is imported to the island or what, but the price is CRAZY high.... I had the buffalo chicken wrap and it was actually really good, BUT that wrap was so small. Of course they cut it in half, but each half was tiny. There's no way that was even a full 6-inch wrap before they cut it. Still stuffed and flavorful, just disappointing on the portion size. The French fries though? Really really good. I had them with my wrap and I enjoyed them a lot. Didn't get a pickle though, and I didn't even realize it was supposed to come with one until I came back the next day... I wish I had gotten that. The bartender was nice--it was a guy. Not super friendly, but cool enough. Now the bathroom... ATROCIOUS. I hated it. Didn't even want to touch anything. Yikes. But other than that, I do like the place!

For my coffee on this morning I decided to go with a coconut latte and then ordered a blueberry malasada while my father went with a custard-filled one. At Maleko, the malasadas are pre-made but not filled until you order which I think is a smart move. I first tried my blueberry malasada and thought it was good. The dough was light and fluffy and the filling had a great flavor. As for my coffee, I have to agree with other reviews that the syrup made it overly sweet. I still drank it, but I definitely would have preferred something less sweet. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again for the malasadas. As for the coffee, I would probably pass unless you prefer your drinks on the sweeter side.
