    This is my second time trying the sunrise shack and they did not dissapoint. The location is so cute. The service is quick and good. I ordered the acai bowl and it was so good. I will be back.

    There's only really been one person working there each time I've passed by, but they're quick to make your order. They have their own seating with high chairs or you can take your acai out to each in the food court. Ordered their basic acai bowl and added bee pollen and goji berries - why didn't they tell be it'd be an extra $2 each add on? The acai was grainy and bland - maybe a bit of honey would've helped? If you're desperate for acai like I was and you're in the area then yeah come here, if you can hold out for better then I'd recommend doing that instead.

    Paradise bowl
    Sina M.

    Tried Sunrise Cafe and got the Paradise Bowl, it was good and the pineapple mango base was super refreshing. But honestly, for how small the portion was, I don't know if it's worth the price. It's tasty, just not something I'd run back for.

    Monkey smoothie

    Looking for a protein smooth fix after a workout. Decided to try this cute spot with island decor and bright ambiance. Customer service was pleasant and they were accommodating in my request not to add coconut flakes. I ordered the Monkey smoothie. Unfortunately you can't ask for certain ingredients to be removed like dates, as apparently it is pre-blended/mixed. The taste was alright, I didn't really taste the PB and it was not very cold. $15+ for a regular sized smoothie was on the high end for me as I didn't realize the added whey protein cost $3! My bad for not asking in advance. Pricey to be a regular smoothie spot.

    Papaya
    Emily G.

    The infamous papaya bowl and at an affordable price !! Short line at 10am but was able to get food within 10 mins. If you want to eat it by holding the papaya, make sure to have napkins handy since the honey and peanut butter might be dripping. The papaya itself wasn't too big but with all the granola, blueberries, banana, and goji berries it's a nice filling breakfast!

    I'm writing this review specifically for the stellar service from the worker who helped us out! He was working by himself last week while it was moderately busy but he had a very efficient system attending to the line while also making the customers their orders in a promptly manner, all while being kind and nice! Drinks were also delicious.

    Lava smoothie

    Service was amazing. The lady behind the desk was so sweet and the food was fresh and delicious. The area is so cute with bright colors, paintings, and cute merch inside!

    Small açaí and tropical smoothie.

    I was looking for a healthy options in the food court, and I stumbled upon the sunrise shack at Alamoana. It is a very convenient location for us locals who wants a really good açai bowl but don't wanna check into Waikiki. The parking is plentiful. There are a lot of other shops to see in the area and it's a cute little place to stop if you want a cool treat. I ordered the tropical smoothie and an açai bowl. The tropical smoothie has a Pitaya swirl which is very fun looking, but I don't think it really adds anything to this smoothie. I just wish there was more mango flavors since I really do love mango. The açai was good. I wouldn't recommend taking it too far because even as I was eating in the food court, it started melting. The granola is very interesting. I thought it was a little salty , which is different from the granola I am used to on the bowls. Service was friendly and fast. I only waited just a few minutes with a few orders ahead. I asked which açaí bowl had the least amount of calories which the guy wasn't able to answer. My one suggestion would be adding that to the menu items if I had to make anything better.

    Great açaí bowls inside The Sunrise Shack at Ala Moana. The service is great and great variety of bowls, with flexibility to substitute items.

    David H.

    I'd give it a 3.5 if we keepin it one hunnid... but gunna show some love with da 4 lol. Maybe just an off day but... idk family. Bowl was not hitting like it normally does. First time coming to this location--mostly just hit north shore grindz when we cruising. Main complain fo me was the acai base--just something off bout it. But who knows.. you be the judge!

    Original açaí bowl
    Erin W.

    Service was great and very kind! I was promptly served & my order came out quickly without ordering online. Original açaí bowl was delicious! Only complaint would be the pricing. $14 for this small little thing seems a little steep! Overall would recommend!

    UBE BOWL - $13.95 - Base Ube Extract, Banana, Coconut Milk. Tops Banana, Blueberry, Strawberry, Coconut Saucve, Granola, Coconut Flake.
    Tu-Anh N.

    WHEN: Sun @3:30pm I had just finished doing the half century ride, and I knew I wanted an açaí bowl after eating my lunch! It was hard to decide, but because I have never seen an ube açaí bowl anywhere else before, I went for the: UBE BOWL - $13.95 Base Ube Extract, Banana, Coconut Milk Tops Banana, Blueberry, Strawberry, Coconut Saucve, Granola, Coconut Flake. Okay it's more of a smoothie bowl but it was delicious! It's nice the smoothie bowls come in3 sizes and I got the small. Still had leftovers since I couldn't finish it all myself. The shop is super cute with with lots of merch to buy.

    Acai Bowl
    Kristina C.

    I was craving an Acai bowl and decided to come to Sunrise Shack to try! To be honest I was a little disappointed. For the Acai bowl i'd give it a 2 out of 5 because the only fruits that they put in bowl was just bananas. There wasn't much variety and what also killed it was the Acai tasted really watered down. After 2 minutes it would become sludge and it was just super icy as well. Overall, The staff was super friendly, but the Acai was an honest disappointment. I don't think I'll be coming back again.

Parking is super easy with the complimentary structure, and the café is located on the bottom floor alongside other vendors. One thing I immediately appreciated was how well air-conditioned the entire market is--it's nice and cool, which makes sitting and eating there really comfortable. The cashier recommended the turkey pesto croissant, but suggested swapping it onto ciabatta since it's one of her favorites--and I'm so glad I trusted her. It was phenomenal. The flavors were balanced, the bread held everything together perfectly, and it felt like a step above your typical sandwich. I also had what looked like a simple salad, but the vinaigrette and candied pistachios really elevated it and made it feel more thoughtful than expected. The staff across the board were friendly and welcoming, and there's plenty of seating--whether inside the café or out in the open market area. Honestly, the value surprised me the most. I paid under $13 for everything, which is hard to beat for the quality. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to.

The wonderful Hawaiian ladies who run the shop are incredibly warm, welcoming, and genuinely kind. Their aloha spirit shines through in every interaction, and they make you feel like family the moment you walk through the door. The smoothies are some of the freshest and most authentic I've ever tasted. Everything tastes natural, wholesome, and made with high-quality organic ingredients. My favorites are the guava and strawberry smoothies, which are bursting with fresh fruit flavor and perfectly refreshing without tasting overly sweet or artificial. The biggest compliment I can give is that during my one-week vacation in Hawaii, I've already come back three times! That's how good this place is. When you find food this fresh, service this friendly, and an atmosphere this welcoming, you can't help but keep coming back. If you're looking for authentic, healthy, delicious food and drinks in Oahu, do yourself a favor and stop by. This place is an absolute gem and deserves every one of its five stars. Highly recommend!

I noticed a QR code on the door for online ordering, scanned it, grabbed an outdoor table and figured I'd give that a try. I ordered the Smoked Salmon and Bacon sandwich, the Apple Pecan Salad with balsamic dressing, and a large cold brew. I paid online and sat outside for maybe 15-20 minutes. I never did figure out whether I was supposed to get a notification that my order was ready, so eventually I just went inside to check. Sure enough, it was ready. Easy enough, and everyone I interacted with was incredibly kind. Then I got home and opened everything, and THAT is when I became really impressed. I had included a note with my order that I planned to eat the salad the following day and asked that the wet ingredients be kept separate. They absolutely understood the assignment. Everything was packaged so thoughtfully. The Apple Pecan Salad was beautiful, incredibly fresh and substantial, with the ingredients carefully separated so it would keep. It wasn't some obligatory pile of greens tossed into a container. You could actually see the care that went into making it. The Smoked Salmon and Bacon sandwich was equally good. Fresh, generously filled and absolutely delicious. I ate half the sandwich and some of the salad and was completely satisfied. Between the two, I can easily get four meals out of what I ordered, which makes the value even better. And the cold brew? Wowzer. Robust and delicious! I think what impressed me most was simply the level of care. A sandwich and a salad aren't complicated foods, but doing simple food really well takes effort. Fresh produce, good ingredients, thoughtful preparation, paying attention to a customer's request, and putting out food that looks every bit as good as it tastes. I felt that in this order. I actually tipped 15% when I ordered because I was thinking, okay, this is basically grab-and-go. After I got home and ate the food, I wished I'd tipped 20%. It genuinely felt good spending my money here. This was visit number one, and they've already set the benchmark. I really hope they stay exactly like this, because what a find. I will absolutely be back.

    Super late review -…read more I'm sad. I really wanted to love this place but I just couldn't. I don't want to be that person when this place has an overall rating of 4.5 but this is just my honest opinion. I got the blue dream and yes it was very ascetically pleasing, but it was just too icy. Before coming to this place i read a couple of reviews that also said the same thing and i didn't understand what that meant, but now I do. There are a lot of flavorless, just regular, small shards of ice in the bowl. On top of that, the moment I received my bowl, it was already borderline melted. So that got me thinking, how can it be melted and icy at the same time? The only explanation that I can think of is just ice additive/fillers. It's not pure cold acai or whatever is in the bowl you choose, but there's a mixture of ice in it too. Yes I understand, it's Waikiki, everything is more expensive, but the added topping prices on top of the already expensive bowl prices just don't make sense. You want a beautiful looking bowl with a lot of different toppings, yet some toppings can go up to 1 dollar PER topping. I don't know if I've just been spoiled by a couple places in SoCal, but at those places they have unlimited toppings and those bowls are the best that there is. I'm not bringing any bias from other locations, but this is just an honest review based on my experience today.

They use fresh mangoes to make the smoothie. And have a scoop of sticky rice sitting on the bottom. I wish they had added a little more coconut milk or some kind of liquid to loosen up the sticky rice a bit to make it easier to drink. Sucking that up was a quite difficult. I recommend using your straw to poke at it for a bit to break it up before trying to suck it out. Aside from that this drink was perfect. It was everything I was hoping for. Exactly what you would imagine drinking this yummy dessert is like. I tried to use the app to order but it wasn't working so I used the kiosk at the counter. Worked fine. I had just signed up for an account right before i got intk line. My number didn't work when I tried to sign in at the kiosk to earn points. Perhaps there is a delay. Drink came out pretty quickly.

I didn't try the Oreo mille crepe cake myself, but the little one said it was good. The service and cleanliness were also lacking. Our table was dirty when we were seated, and we had to specifically ask someone to come clean it. The garbage can nearby was also filled to the brim, which was not very inviting.

This might be one of the only places in Waikiki open at 4 AM which is perfect if you've just arrived the night before from the East Coast. The inside of the shop feels homey. They have a display case full of pastries along with additional baked goods set out nearby. 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.
