    I wasn't planning on coming to the Isles Cafe but I'm glad I stumbled upon it! I ordered the katsu loco which was affordable and yummy. The woman working the cashier was incredibly nice to me and made my experience that much better. Thank you!

    I came here with 3 of coworkers for lunch. We all order various of things. Please check out my pictures as I can't remember everything. I order the chili dog and it is massive and overwhelming. Let me repeat, this is NOT your average chili dog. You will need a fork to eat it. Using your hands is not allowed. Although some people may like more, I didn't honestly like it. Too much. Overall it tasted great. I always ordered a side of fries which was enough to share between 3 people. So when you order, ask about the proportion. It can be very large.  

    Happy Eating!

    These sushi cones are possibly the best bite I've ever had. I don't even like poke. But this blend of sweet salty acid and umami is out of this world. The flavors are so huge that i can't imagine eating more than two in one sitting.

    This place is quite the hole in the wall too as we were flanked by local workers and a "dude with horns" it seems like this is where the locals go.

    I don't even care what else is on the menu. All I had was the sushi cones and I feel it's all I'll ever need. Great work!

    Food never disappoints. Definitely one of da best fried rice dishes in all of Hawaii. Local style done the local way.

    Isles Cafe Has The Absolute Best Homemade Sweetbread French Toast Around Town! Another One Of My Favorites From Here Is The Gravy Cheese Burger! The people are friendly, & the prices are inexpensive.
