What People Are Saying

from Google & Yelp

"Delicious; a must crave! Worth the drive for folks traveling. I live a couple blocks away so I take out-never dined in. Take out is great-timely, looks like the same portions as dining in and properly packaged."

★★★★★

"We had a great breakfast. The Shaka potatoes are really good. The pancake was thick and delicious. The biscuit and gravy was good. The caramel mocha I got was really good. The loco moco was not the best. But not sure if it was traditional."

"I came here with my family of 4 (2 kids 16 & 9 y/o) on a Sunday morning around 11ish thinking it was a Hawaiian brunch spot. It was a packed house, but we were seated right away. This was an “inspired” by Hawaiian theme. The atmosphere is very lively and upbeat in an open and airy space. The hostess was amazing and provided great customer service. When it came to the food it fell short of our expectations. I ordered the Mochiko Chicken Plate Lunch, my son ordered the pancake, my daughter ordered French toast and my husband ordered The Classic w/ scrambled eggs. The French Toast and Pancake were good. The pancake was huge and (1) order was enough for my hungry growing boy. My husband didn’t enjoy his eggs, he said they were served cold. I’m not sure if his food was sitting on the counter for a while but he didn’t enjoy it. As for my Mochiko Chicken, it came with a cucumber kimchi and a side of rice. The chicken itself lacked flavor—just salt. Dipping it into the shoyu sauce made it overwhelmingly salty, and even pairing it with rice didn’t balance it out. The shoyu really needed a touch of sweetness to cut through the saltiness and bring some balance to the dish. Instead, with salty brined chicken, salty shoyu, and kimchi all on the same plate, the whole meal felt like it should’ve been called the Hypertension Special. The serving size for this plate is very small, it’s not “Hawaiian” size portion, more like an appetizer for us islanders, which is great considering the food profile of this dish. Overall customer service was amazing and atmosphere was great but food was not of great quality. Unfortunately, we would not be returning."

"We have come a few times. We tried table service and counter service. Both are great. The food is delish, the fruit is fresh, and potatoes are their specialty."

"First impression definitely a old building (we love hole in the wall places) we always find it the best food for the best prices. However this place was very confusing. We walked in and no one greeted, until someone behind the counter said hi and that's it. We sat down for a little bit not knowing what to do. Then someone approached and explained that there are two sides to the place. Where we walked in is basically self service. & the other side is full service. We ended up moving to the other side. & were finally handed some menus. We were expecting a more hawaiian theme food as (I'm hawaiian) and the name of the place is shakabrah. However it's just regular breakfast place. They did have Loco moco on there but I think that was it. Hubby: big country breakfast Me: cowboy hash Son: the classic with pancake Overall breakfast was just regular expected I guess. Nothing stood out and the cowboy hash was kind of spicy for me. Which I should of asked or read that it had Chipotle sauce so that was my fault. The portion size was expected for that price. My son did love the pancake though. It was monster size lol. & for $8.50 for one pancake. Overall experience was just ok. Confusing but ok. Is this a place we'd come back to, prolly not, but I guess for locals it's a cute diner place or a place where regulars would go. 4/10 recommend."

"Great food, I got the avocado omelette and it had a little too much bacon for me. My cousin got corned beef hash with fruit on the side, the strawberries..."
