Andrade’s Honokaa Cafe

I love this place. The owners are very friendly, the food was amazing. One of the best fish I’ve ever had.My friend had ribs. I was so happy with my choice of food. She is a great cooker. I would love to go back when I come back in town.

Mr and Mrs Andrade have been married for over 50 or 60 years.and were nice enough to cook and serve our food personally. They told us about the history of the town, the restaurant, and had visited my town as well. The food was incredible and the conversation was like family. Make sure they are open because they only work select times. It is well worth planning your trip around.

Excellent food and hospitality at this Cafe is truly unique. We ordered the Aqua Pasa, Chicken Pesto Sandwich and the Lilikoi-Glazed Ham Sandwich. We also tried the freshly baked macademia nut pie with ice cream, the pie was very delicious and moist. So glad we decided to stop by this family run Cafe. Highly recommend this Cafe.

It’s a must to enjoy a meal here. My friend and I stumbled on this lovely cafe while exploring the town. Had a wonderful lunch . The food is made with love and so delicious. The owners so warm and kind with lots of tips and insights to share. You won’t regret the warm welcome you get here.

Amazing delicious food (loved the pork pineapple ribs) and the service/story/people were amazing! Can’t believe established since 1924. A must visit if you’re stopping through the area for lunch or breakfast.

Yes. This is a must. It is a very nice older couple. The building has obviously been newly updated (very simplistic and tasteful). But the real star is the food (or the man who is wonderful to chat with). I normally am not a fan of sweet bread but this was just so tasty. My husband and I shared the chicken pesto sandwich and the turkey sandwich. Not really sure which was my favorite bc they were both so good. Definitely put this on your must try list. Also some very cute shops with nice vendors in the town.

I would have to say they put mom and pop in the mama pop restaurant. This couple that is been married for 53 years are over the top amazing the mom cooks. The husband is the Waterboy.(his own admission.) we had the pleasure of running across this place while we were on our way down to Hilo and it is by far a must stop place. They had fresh walnut pie, the Portuguese bean soup was over-the-top amazing as was the Portuguese sliders. And on top of that just to be able to talk to this beautiful couple I’ve been doing this for most of her life brought a new experience to casual dining for me.

Archie and Marlene are amazing people! You can see the joy and pride they have in running the cafe through their interactions with their customers. We were lucky to get a table after a short wait and had a great time dining here. The food was fantastic, but Archie and Marlene were the ones that made our experience great!
