    Two iced cold brews...one with milk and one with 1/2 and 1/2
    Joe K.

    Cute little coffee shop in downtown Honolulu's restaurant row. Here with Mark y. Killing time. Decided to get a coffee. I am not a fan of ridiculous dessert-like coffee concoctions...that's not coffee! We ordered iced cold brews. The girl at the counter sweetly informed us that if we wanted anything but black we needed to let them know because they seal the coffees. Had no clue what that meant ...but ok. I had milk in mine. The coffees were indeed sealed with a pop top. Cute presentation. And the coffee was darn good!

    The Porch - 5 Stars Now this was unexpected. I came to Restaurant Row to eat at Tempura Man after seeing a post about it, but I couldn't find it. I guess they may have gone out of business. While looking around, I stumbled upon The Porch. It looked good and seemed popular, so I decided to give it a try. I ordered the Turkey Pesto Sandwich, and boy was I surprised. This wasn't the thin, pre-sliced turkey you get at the grocery store. It was made with thick slices of turkey breast, fresh tomatoes, and spinach, all served on a buttery croissant bun. On the side was a fresh spinach salad topped with tomatoes. This place is a cute hole-in-the-wall gem. The ingredients tasted fresh, and the sandwich was packed with flavor. They have a cozy couch you can relax on while eating, along with a few small tables. It's not a big place and probably isn't ideal for large groups, but it's perfect for a casual lunch or quick bite. Serve was good. If you're looking for a fresh and tasty sandwich, this is definitely a must-try spot. Happy eating!

    A popular little spot at Restaurant Row. I met here for a business luncheon. This is an area surrounded by HPU students but it was actually quite a nice spot to sit outside at one of the tables and enjoy a chat and food from The Porch Honolulu. They have an array of juices, teas and coffee choices that they mix into these plastic bottles that they assemble soda caps onto. It's quite cute. The drinks can come out in really pretty layers, very colorful. Sandwiches, breakfast or lunch options, all sounded pretty good. From about $6 to $14 or so. Everyone working there seemed excited to answer questions and point out the variety, since what they have to offer is fun, some including ube, etc.

    This was a great spot to get a cool refreshing drink on a warm day. The staff are very friendly and the area is well kept. There is plenty of outdoor seating in the shaded open breezes. I had the açaí smoothie. Very flavorful, this really hit the spot. This is also an interesting location for people watching and just meeting others.

    The Island Bowl.. been that girl, still that girl Staff are so sweet here and even though it's busy around lunch time they are pretty fast with service. p.s. let them know if you are a student for the student discount.

    I love coming here whenever I am at the Waterfront Plaza. Parking is located in the structure and they validate your parking with a $10+ purchase. Staff is extremely friendly. I was told that the owner, Sharon, is also the sweetest. They give a 10% discount for any HPU student with proof of identification. I come here for their savory drinks, especially their seasonal specials. If I need energy, I order a kicker. There's ample seating outside of Porch and at the Waterfront in general. I haven't tried their food but I recommend their drinks and would definitely come in again.

    Chunks of tapioca in the smoothie

    Do not order their smoothies. I ordered a coco mango boom smoothie and it was one of the worse smoothies I've ever had. Some of the tapioca was hard and crunchy. The majority of it was in chunks. Ordering a smoothie at a coffee shop was probably not the smartest thing to do but if you are going to sell it at least make it drinkable/edible. Such a disappointment.

    Love this Breakfast spot! I like their simple menu with some solid classic breakfast items. We ordered turkey pesto and sunrise eggcado. When I opened the boxes I said to myself "wow the ingredients look really fresh!". There were no overpowering seasonings or gravy so you can really taste the food. The portion was smaller than I thought but I was really happy with the quality of the food. And the price was quite reasonable. Sevice was quick. There are many benches outside so you can just relax and enjoy your breakfast. And there are many students there studying or discussing about their projects. Just great vibe there!

    Steak Sandwich

    The good and the bad: Located right in the middle of Waterfront Plaza (formerly Restaurant Row), The Porch is a charming little walk-up coffee bar with an impressive selection of sandwiches, toasts, baked goods, and açaí bowls. Despite its small interior, there's an abundance of outdoor seating. The place is often hopping with college students, but there's always a place to sit. The people working the counter are so friendly and sincere, you can't help but be in a good mood when you're there! I ordered the steak sandwich for $14 and it was pretty good. Not anything like I expected, it was thin slices of smoked meat with onions, tomatoes, mixed greens, and pesto on a fresh baked ciabatta roll. It was accompanied by a beautiful salad topped with heirloom tomatoes and a side of ranch dressing that was positively awful and ruined the whole thing. The meat was very very smokey, so if BBQ isn't your thing then order something else. They have excellent coffee drinks, with exotic offerings like honey lavender latte and mango matcha, and the Vietnamese iced coffee will literally set your heart racing. Overall I highly recommend The Porch, in spite of the abysmal ranch dressing.

    Drinks were great I loved my vietnamese coffee with cold foam on top. I ordered online 10 min prior and my drinks were ready as soon as I got there! Definitely coming back, I loved the uniqueness of the cups and being able to open it when you'd like. Store is super cute for sure, outdoor seating too!

    Farmers Market smoothie
    Eri K.

    The Porch has been on my bookmarks list for a while and I finally was able to try it as we were in the area. It is a cute cafe in Ward Village nearby the office buildings. We went during a weekday afternoon and so there were lots of students and medical professionals as Straub is nearby and HPU as well as a surgical center (appears to be private practice?). Parking: structured parking, paid. They do validate but they have a minimum purchase of $10 Service: fast, efficient, friendly. Ambience: Tables and chairs are available outside (not inside) and therefore is not covered so if it's raining, you can get wet. The establishment itself is small and clean. Food: I cannot comment on the food as I did not opt to purchase food at this time, but the drink I had was the farmers market smoothie (~$9), which had kale, banana, apple juice, etc. It was fresh and just what I wanted. Tip: Public restrooms are located inside the parking structure close by. You may need to press the button/buzzer to obtain entrance inside as the door can get locked.

    Hojicha latte!
    Romyn S.

    The Hojicha latte was so GOOD!! I would come again to get this and to try the other drinks. It's cute how they put their drink in a soda can type of top so you can take it to go and then open it when you're ready. I was like this would be great for parties and gatherings. And if you have extras then it'll stay good for a bit. Atmosphere - Cute, it's in the Row Kaka'ako and there's seating everywhere outside so you can just sit there. The place itself does not have seating inside as you walk in and it's their items and service counter and such. It's cute and brightly colored. Service - Great, they were friendly and I didn't see the hojicha latte on their current menu but saw it online so inquired and they answered my questions and said they could make it! Cost - $7 - 8 Parking - You can get validation if you spend over $10. If not then it's around $3 for every 30 minutes or something like that. Location - Row Kaka'ako near the waterfront. Never been here before and other cool restaurants like Aloha Mamacita. I would definitely try their other drinks because they have matcha ones and I wanted to try the ube matcha, mango matcha and strawberry matcha!

    Came here a little over a week ago. Parked in waterfront plaza structure. Parking should be free with validation (but I'm not sure up to how many hours). There was a bit of a line, so we ordered online. It took about 15 minutes to get our food and drinks. There's tables outside but can get claimed by HPU students. The turkey pesto was good! Getting something on a toasted croissant is always the move. My friend had the egg salad bagel and she enjoyed it. As far as drinks, I wasn't too impressed. There wasn't too strong of a coffee taste in either as they were both very sweet. The plastic container they come in is cute, but ultimately of no further use, unless maybe you can recycle? I'd say everything is pretty reasonably priced. Would come back if I had a choice, but wouldn't go out of my way.

After looking over the menu options, we stood waiting for quite a while before anyone acknowledged us or took our order. The manager seemed rude and unwelcoming, which immediately set a negative tone for the visit. Looking back we should have trusted our first impression, but we decided to give it a chance and see what the hype was about. We each ordered a slice of pizza and took it outside to eat. After eating , we walked past the glass wall of the cafe and I noticed the manager handling and mixing flour with his bare hands, with the flour mixture covering his hands and forearms. I didn't expect to see food prep without disposable gloves and it made me uncomfortable. The pizza itself didn't make up for the experience. At around $22 per slice, I was expecting something exceptional or life-changing, instead, it was pretty underwhelming. The flavor, texture, and overall quality just didn't justify the premium price. Between the unfriendly service, concerns about food handling, and the disappointing pizza, I don't feel the experience was worth the cost of overpriced slices of pizza and I will not be returning nor will I recommend Little G Cafe to others.

Overall this is the second best NY style pizza place after black shamrock by a small margin - the Jersey pie at shamrock with its awesome sauce and perfect crust is hard to beat but don't think you can order it by the slice.

    As mentioned by other reviewers, if you're looking for an inexpensive, decent sandwich on Waikiki…read morebeach, look no further. Conveniently located near Duke's, there's one outdoor table nearby, but really, just pick up a sandwich and take it to the beach! Staff was very friendly. Plenty of options for sandwiches and salads (and maybe more options, just what I noticed). I got the tuna sandwich and added a slice of pepper jack. I said no mayo or mustard, though I'd probably recommend mayo. There are so many veggies that it needs a little sauce. The veggies make you feel like you're eating something super healthy! There wasn't a ton of tuna in the sandwich, but half was filling enough for me. I'll save the rest for tomorrow.

    I'm going to start by saying you won't find a sandwich shop in Waikiki like Pai's Deli. Their…read moresandwiches are packed with fresh ingredients and tons of flavor. Skipping this place would be a crime. And prices are very reasonable for what you get. It's a hidden gem, tucked inside the Outrigger Waikiki Beach Resort just to the right of Duke's. I've been here many times and have ordered both smoothies and sandwiches. Let me tell you, the bread is incredibly soft, the greens are crisp and fresh, and the protein is ALWAYS tasty. The team works hard to craft your sandwich every time, and I always get a warm "thank you" when I pick mine up (I swear I got into a thank-you battle once, and of course, they won). I highly recommend the tuna sandwich. It's seasoned perfectly and generously filled with tuna. The greens are always piled high. Shredded carrots, spinach leaves, and more sprouts than you'd think possible. It's healthy and DELICIOUS. I usually add avocado, and the sandwich with avocado comes out to $13.75, which is a great deal for Waikiki. Oh! and you get a little skewer of two pineapple slices! It's cute, refreshing, and perfectly ripe every time. The last smoothie I ordered was the Avocado Green Island. It's made with mango, avocado, spinach, banana, greek yogurt, and coconut milk. It's creamy, slightly tangy, and absolutely delicious. Highly recommend. I've also tried their chicken salad sandwich (money!) and my favorite, the Captain Salad. I recommend getting it with Caesar dressing. The brand of ranch they use isn't really my thing. They also have a homemade balsamic vinagarette that sounds amazing. The salad is huge, topped with turkey and generous crumbles of bacon. I'm telling you, they're serving hit after hit after hit at this spot. Go and enjoy ASAP!
