A cosy Hawaiian styled cafe run by a lovely couple whom celebrates their love for all things Hawaii that can be seen in the deco and on the menu. Serves value for money set lunches and a good selection of Hawaiian inspired dinner menu. Seats a 18 people so come early for lunch. Service is incredibly warm and friendly. Food is cooked with a lot of love. If you're in the neighborhood and thinking what's for lunch/ dinner, look no further. Parking available at opposite the cafe. Closest station is Shin Nakano.

Good quality for VERY reasonable price. Lunch special ¥1000 - 5 dishes plus a drink: Kabocha pasta salad+eggplant, miso soup, curry, rice and dessert - all tasted great! Not HUGE servings but well worth it for the amount, quality and price. Owners were so polite and welcoming! Very cute little place. Will go back!

ランチセット1,050円。物価高で少しずつ値上げしているものの、内容に対してまだまだ安いと感じます。 ハワイ風のインテリアですが、メニューは和風やタイ風もありバラエティに富んでいます。 ランチは日替わり、ココナッツカレー、TACOライス、トムヤムつけ麺、豚しゃぶ定食、サラダとミートスパゲティグラタンから選べます。 今回はトムヤムつけ麺をいただきましたが、ピリリと辛くてコクのあるスープにもやしなど の野菜も入り、ボリュームがあります。 サラダと小鉢2品、ソフトドリンクにシフォンケーキも付いてお腹も心も満たしてくれます。ドリンクは持ち帰り用にもしてくださいます。 お店の方もとても丁寧で気さくで、素敵な雰囲気のお店です。今日のホノルルの気温が掲示してあったり、可愛いハワイのインテリアに囲まれて、束の間のハワイ気分を味わえます。 大好きなお店です。

平日の1時過ぎに行きました。 限定ランチは残念ながら完売でしたが 豚しゃぶランチ美味しいかったです。 ご飯は普通盛り大盛りなど食べれる量を注文出来ます。 副菜などありシフォンケーキと飲み物も付いて1000円で満足感有ります。 アイスコーヒーが思っていたより大きめのグラスだったので次回からはテイクアウト用の容器に入れて貰おうと思いました
