Welcome to Guieb Cafe, a culinary gem nestled in the heart of Honolulu, HI. This vibrant cafe specializes in a delightful mix of local Hawaiian flavors and beloved comfort food staples, creating a unique dining experience that resonates warmly with both locals and visitors alike. From the moment you step inside, you’re enveloped in a laid-back, inviting atmosphere that strikes the perfect balance between modern chic and cozy mom-and-pop charm.

The menu at Guieb Cafe is an enticing exploration of flavor where breakfast and lunch options abound all day long. For pancake enthusiasts, the Ube Mascarpone Pancakes (US$20.80) stand out with their delectable blend of flavors and stunning purple color that’s as visually appealing as it is tasty. If you prefer something more classic, the Chocolate Chip Pancakes (US$10.40) ooze comfort and nostalgia, promising each bite is a hollowed-out delight. Not to be missed is the Honey Acai French Toast (US$19.50), which is adorned with a rainbow of fresh fruits, granola, and a drizzle of honey that elevates it to gourmet status.

For lunch, the offerings are equally impressive. The signature 10 Oz. Prime Rib Loco Moco (US$26.00) isn’t just a plate of food; it's an experience—generous slices of juicy prime rib resting on a bed of fluffy rice topped with perfectly runny eggs. Customers rave about its tender meat and rich flavor, making it a must-try for anyone wishing to dive deeper into Hawaiian cuisine. And if you’re in the mood for something crispy and comforting, the Homestyle Golden Fried Chicken (US$35.10) promises a satisfying crunch with each bite, served alongside your choice of rice or mashed potatoes for the ultimate feast.

The rave reviews speak volumes about Guieb Cafe’s commitment to quality and service. Customers like Emma Matteazzi and Jon highlight how each dish, from the flavorful Prime Rib Loco Moco to the delightful Ube pancakes, is crafted with care and intention. Many recommend making a reservation, especially during peak hours, as this beloved spot tends to fill up quickly! As Tomy Tang mentions, the diverse menu allows you to indulge in breakfast favorites any time of day, enhancing the cafe's appeal as a go-to destination for delicious meals.

Food was delicious, we had the bangus tapsilog, lechon fried rice, and 2 big boy platters. Everything was cooked perfectly, and served in a timely manner. I do recommend reservations if they’ll allow, it is busy and we waited around 20-30min for a party of 4 while there were atleast 2-4 parties in front of us. HOWEVER it is worth the wait.

The food here was absolutely amazing. I had the Prime Rib Loco Moco, and what was supposed to be 10 oz slice of Prime Rib seemed more like 20oz. Family members also had the Ube pancakes and french toast, both of which were very tasty. This was a great introduction to Hawaiian cuisine! The food was presented very nicely, and the wait staff was very kind and attentive. Overall, it was a wonderful experience!

They have lots of options and serve breakfast. Lunch, dinner all day. So you can order whatever you want on their menu. The prime rib is absolutely delicious. Juicy and fatty. Prices are all affordable here. Everything is great.

Great ube pancakes and waygu loco moco. The crab cakes were ok, the poached eggs was overcooked but still good. Strong coffee with refills. The country fried steak was good but not spectacular. The service was great, blonde waitress was so nice and helpful.

Came here looking for an authentic Hawaiian lunch spot and were pleasantly surprised. We got there at 12 and managed to park right in front of the restaurant which was nice and got sat at a table right away. We ordered the prime rib loco moco which was absolutely delicious, the meat was flavorful and tender. We then tried the longsilog, also very tasty. I wish we could have tried some desserts as well but the generous portions had us stuffed.. overall I feel like recommending this place if you’re in Honolulu

This spot is one of three locations, and just like the others, it has a nice interior that gives off a modern yet local mom and pop vibe. The design is consistent with the other branches, which I appreciate. Service was good, even though they were pretty busy today. We shared the Big Boy Breakfast and upgraded to banana pancakes. Overall, everything was tasty. The only downside was the hash browns, which weren’t crispy at all. That was a bit of a letdown, but everything else hit the spot.

Referred by a close friend, we ate here and it didn’t disappoint not disappoint. Every plate was delish! We will be back and try other locations like Vegas to check if they are just as good.

First time here and loved it!! It's laid back, good service, good food, and great staff. I ordered the Loco Moco Fried Rice. My first time having Loco Moco and it was good! My friends ordered Chicken and Waffles, French Toast w/Marscapone, and a burger. We all enjoyed our meal. That chicken was fire!! The prices were great and I highly recommend coming here to eat for sure. It's less expensive than near the hotels. Plus the service is great and more personable.
