What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"La Tour Café Iwilei is a European-inspired café that blends fresh-baked goods, local ingredients, and creative fusion twists on sandwiches, salads, and more. It's perfect for a quick lunch or casual meal, with a bright, modern vibe and reliable quality. One of the absolute highlights is the Wagyu Beef "Pho"ggie — a brilliant mix of pho flavors in sandwich form. Made with premium Snake River Farms American Wagyu beef, it's layered with house-made "Pho" mayo (infused with those classic aromatic spices), leafy greens, shaved onions, cilantro, fresh jalapeño, and a squeeze of lemon, all nestled in a crisp organic rustic baguette. The tender, rich Wagyu melts in your mouth, while the herbs and jalapeño add that perfect zing without overpowering. It's creative, indulgent, and easily one of the best fusion sandwiches I've had in a while. Portions are generous although the entrees do not include a side item so you'll need to order something extra if you want a side salad or fries. Service is friendly and efficient, and the café's overall menu (from paninis to fresh salads and those addictive macarons) shows real attention to detail. We enjoyed this place for a lunch date and would go back again---highly recommended!"
"Good food and good vibes! We went during a quiet hour (sometime between lunch and dinner) and there were just a few people in the restaurant. Ordered a burger and a (staff recommended) wagyu pho-ggie as well as an iced coffee and mint water. Our favorites were definitely the wagyu pho-ggie and mint water!"
"Bought so many gifts (macaroons) from here. The gifts were well received. They asked me if I made them and I told them the truth that I got them from La Tour Cafe. People thought that I work for their marketing team since I got them the macaroons couple times already."
"Never had a chicken pesto panini before and I have deprived myself from one of the most delicious lunches I could possibly treat myself to. I already knew their lattes were all that and then some, but wow. A new hot spot for me"
"And why didn’t I pay attention to this place before? )) It’s very tasty here, but the prices for some dishes are quite high. I ordered my favorite onion soup, PHOGGIE with wagyu beef, creme brulee pastry and caramel macaron, I really liked it all 👍🏼 The macarons here are really delicious and the size is larger than in other places. The only downside was that the restroom didn't work."
"Embarrassing, I reviewed the wrong restaurant, Tous Les Jours. La Tour Cafe on the Nimitz is the correct one. On one of our trips to Hawaii we tried the..."
