⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (10/5 if I could!) Sweet E’s Cafe is an absolute gem! The staff here are some of the nicest, most genuine people you’ll ever meet — friendly, quick, and so efficient. The food came out fast every single time, and everything on the menu is incredible. My family and I were visiting Oahu for a week, and we ended up coming here every single day. We ordered something different each time, and every dish was amazing. We came to Hawaii because we had multiple deaths in our family and we wanted to do something to kind of cheer up and the waitstaff definitely contributed to making this a fun trip. You can literally truly taste the love and care in their food. If I could give Sweet E’s 10 out of 5 stars, I absolutely would. It’s that good! 🌺💙

Food: tastes very good and very fresh. The portion could be better. I love their Benedict. Cleanliness: the store is ok but could be better. Staff: very professional and great in handling the crowd. Parking: you can find plenty of parking spots. Price: very reasonable for the quality you receive. I would love to try it again.

Food was amazing. Service friendly and competent. They also had some toys at the front which was a nice touch since it helped to keep kids busy while waiting for food. Will definitely be back!

The service here is top tier we were seated right away.Our coffee was on the table in less than 1 minute the staff work as a team and that really makes a difference in such a busy place. Our food was hot and ready within 10 minutes and I cannot rave enough about the eggs Benedict being the best breakfast I have ever had in my life. Creamy,meaty,sweet and savory just absolute perfection. The prices are affordable and If I could I’d eat here everyday.

We've come here a few times, and every time the servers are friendly, fast, and helpful. Food is very good and portions are large! When we visit we always go very early right when they open, I hear it can get crowded otherwise. Last time we went we got the blueberry pancakes and an eggs, potatos, and bacon plate. The inside of the place is always welcoming. The photos on the wall are interesting to look at.

The corned beef hash is great. If you can't finish it, save it for dinner. Coffee is great. You can have a coffee take-out later. The stuffed blueberry French toast is also good for our previous visit.

This is the first place we eat for breakfast when we visit Honolulu! Food and service always top notch!!! Prices can’t be beat. Breakfast not even oily like other places. Don’t let the muscle guys fool you super friendly coffee and water always topped off without even asking. Best place ever

It's my first time reviewing cause I had to.. Hope everyone tries this place, waitlist seems long but it cuts really fast. I had about 15 teams ahead me but went in less than 20 minutes. All the servers were nice, especially the guy with yellow centered hair asian lol. He was super nice and chill, even remembered my name till I got out. Loved the food, very tasty, good portion, reasonable price. I would definitely come back here with my families and friends. Thanks a lot!

Amazing experience. Friendly service: They wiped down the high chair before giving it to us, moved us to a bigger table because of the baby, brought him a small toy. When we accidentally ordered something with meat (fried rice), they replaced it with something else for us. Food tasted great and it came out fast. I love this place.

It gets full pretty fast in the morning - they have some parking spots but you’d be lucky to find an empty spot. We arrived at 7.30am and there was just one empty spot. We got spinach feta cheese omelette and waffles. The staff is amazing and very kind. We struck a little chat about the gnome decoration and the history behind them is really funny. The omelette was tasty and very well seasoned. The waffle tasted nice and crisp. They divided our omelette into two very nicely as we were sharing. We had a wonderful visit and will come back again.
