    Bistro hours

    Great breakfast! Coffee tastes like normal sbux so no complaints there. Less options but it's enough for me. Breakfast sandwich was bomb, highly recommend. Didn't try lunch or dinner, but it smelled good when we walked by haha. They also had live music at least one night. The line/wait got a little long two mornings around 7-8, but hey what can you do - I know they were trying their best and always seemed pleasant.

    This isn't actually an official Starbucks. It's a coffee place that provides their coffee and tea. The staff are friendly and quick to make drinks. Frequented this place several times during my visit to the North Shore. When back, I'll definitely return and visit them again for freshly made drinks without having to drive. There are several chairs and tables as well as lounge sofas available to relax and sip on your coffee or tea. My wife loves their macchiato tea. I've tried it and it's actually pretty good. Thanks For providing us with the first fix if the day.

    This location is not an actual Starbucks, but serves authentic Starbucks drinks on a limited menu and is the only place serving decent coffee on this side of Oahu that is open at 6 am.

You order at the counter and they'll give you a number thing and will bring your food to wherever you choose to sit. We wanted to sit outside but the chickens were attacking and fighting for our food :'( they literally jumped onto our table ... so we moved inside lol. The Shez Paniolo was huge! It came with two onion rings and pineapple. Beef patty had a nice smoke flavor. We also ordered a side of onion rings and paniolo. Highly recommend Paniolo; it came with crispy fries (looks like thinly sliced potatoes), bbq sauce and onion rings. I thought food was good. A few ppl in my group thought the burger patty was kind of dry. The decor was cute and beach themed. Overall, customer service was friendly when we were ordering. I noticed a few workers were going around checking on folks and having long conversations but they didn't come to us so whatever. They have clean bathrooms in the back. Plenty of parking available!

This is not a sit and eat kind of place but a grab and go kind of place. You are making the drive not for the ambiance but for the food itself. We got a mix of mince and cheese pies and chicken curry pies, as well as their sausage wrapped in pastry dough. I can easily give the chicken and curry pie 5 stars, but the mince and cheese was even better. Both very savory, and the crust was still flakey and the pies were still warm by the time I got to our rental after walking 15 minutes in the rain. This is definitely a repeat worthy place. We got cream puffs for desert and they didn't disappoint either. Flakey dough, chocolate drizzle on top. Service was very fast as we were the only ones there but as we were leaving a family of 3 showed up. I'm not sure how much the tiny shop makes in a day, but several of the meat pies were sold out. We arrived around 12:30 on a Thursday.

I chose the sausage roll, beef and onion and chicken. The sausage roll was so good! A truly tasty, fat sausage, wrapped in flaky pastry. Ate half of it on the way back to town. I made myself stop when I noticed all the flaky crumbs on me and the car! Now, I gotta vacuum the car... Ate the other two and the other half of the sausage roll, at home for dinner. The beef and onion was amazing, the chicken was good too but it had a tomato base and I was expecting a cream base. But it was just as delicious, just the same. So looking forward to my next drive out there.

This year, we were determined to make it early enough to finally try the Bald Guy, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. The food was honestly divine. We tried the pan-fried poke, kalbi beef, furikake crusted salmon, chopped steak, and spam musubi, and every single thing was incredible. It was so good that we ended up eating here twice during our trip. Also, special shoutout to the mac and cheese because WOW... it is ridiculously good. My personal favorites were the poke, chopped steak, and kalbi beef, but truly everything we ordered was amazing. The staff was also super kind and helpful with all our questions. Just a heads up, they do sell out of certain items before closing, so definitely try to get there earlier rather than later. Cannot wait to come back!

This time I wanted to try the garlic shrimp bc I've only heard good things. My niece and her boyfriend were visiting and I wanted them to experience this food truck. They ordered a combo plate with the garlic shrimp and steak. The food was delicious. They actually rated it the best meal that had while they were on the island. That should tell ya something. The shrimp were big and cooked perfectly. Seasoned to perfection. Just the right amount of garlic and the extra sauce made for the best rice. I was happy with the quantity of shrimp too. Definitely a worth it meal in my book. I also got a teriyaki spam musubi to try. Also good. I like how they wrapped it. Just a slight variation from the ones I typically eat. Will definitely be back. I still want to try the salmon. We got in line just at the right time bc when we turned to sit down after ordering there was a long line that had formed behind us. Our food got done quickly and we sat down at the picnic tables to enjoy it. It was busy so we shared a picnic table with another family. Hopefully you don't mind doing that bc space is often limited.

My personal favorite is the kalbi ribs. They've got that backyard BBQ taste that feels like a homecooked meal, and it's usually what I end up ordering. Simple, comforting, and it just hits. I also love grabbing food here and taking it down the street to eat at the beach. It's one of those meals that feels even better when you're eating it by the water. I just read that they may be closing soon, and if that's true, thank you for all the delicious meals over the years and wishing the team nothing but the best moving forward.

The kalbi and pulehu are just about the same cuts of meats just a different marinade and you get to choose how you want it cooked. We got it medium rare. Kalbi is more like a sweeter Korean bbq and pulehu more smoky bbq. Meat was good and tender and shrimp was a nice creamy taste. Getting a bite of everything with the Mac salad is a must! Only downside is I tried to phone order in advance knowing they would be busy but I couldn't get the phone call through. We had to order once we got there and there was about an 1.5 hour wait for our order. The area is a dead zone for phone service so although they'll call to let you know your order is ready, you may not receive the call. But the wait was expected so we decided to go hang around the beach while waiting. There was a line of people wanting to order. I'd recommend to go early in the morning while they still have everything in stock because we got there at about 10:45AM and they had just sold out of their peanut butter rolls! It is cash only as well. Sad to see the business go but happy there is a lot of locals supporting them, giving fond farewells and wishing the Papa Ole's ohana the best!
