“ Came here on a Thursday morning for breakfast with my family (including 2 little kids). We were not guests of the resort but we had a reservation so we got in right away. We also told staff that we were dining in the restaurant so we got complimentary valet parking for 2.5 hours. The restaurant serves a 3-course breakfast that’s prix fixe. We got the Hawaiian-style loco moco, Punaluu sweet bread french toast, and buttermilk pancakes. The kids got Minnie and Mickey waffles. Everyone also got malasadas and fresh fruit to start. Everything was delicious! The loco moco was flavorful and the french toast was fluffy. I was blown away by the macadamia nut-tahitian vanilla sauce that came with the pancakes; it was fantastic! The kids loved their waffles as well. We were all very full from our meals and could not even finish our starters! The service was excellent! Every staff member was welcoming, friendly, and helpful. The food came out very fast. And the characters going around the tables were super fun! We got to take pictures with them as well. The kids loved it! The place was very spacious, clean, and bright. The surroundings are beautiful in the day. Overall, we loved our time here because of the delicious food, the entertaining characters, and the fun, bright environment. Would definitely recommend it! ”
“ We went for breakfast with the Disney characters. Unfortunately, not all the characters were available. (We were looking for Minnie Mouse) The food was okay. I believe you’re just paying for the experience with the characters. It’s a 3 course breakfast, dessert, appetizer and brunch meal all included. ”
“ Breakfast: Breakfast with character was a great experience, and the food was delicious even trying things we wouldn't normally eat. It was fun, and the service was great. Dinner: was a nice and relaxing experience with no characters, but the atmosphere was great, and the service was awesome as well. The food and dessert were so delicious we asked if it was possible to take an extra order to go! (But sadly no ) ”
“ Got to have breakfast here while in Hawaii for the Pearl Harbor Parade. Since we couldn’t do a Character meal in Disney the year prior this was a great option. We were a little early so we walked around the resort to check it out for a few minutes. Upon arrival to the Resturant we were shown over to the outside area to see Mickey and get a photo. The food was delicious, our server was very nice and we loved seeing the characters! Got visits by Minnie, Pluto and Max! It was nice though, we each got Fruit, Malasadas and a main, I got the pancakes and my daughter got the waffles. Neither of us could finish, it was definitely worth it for the price. They also validated our parking which was a nice perk! ”
“ Such a wonderful breakfast! Delicious food, inviting atmosphere and impeccable service. But, let's not forget the Disney Characters!! This really is a must if you are visiting Aulani., yes it can be pricey. But it is well worth every penny. The tropical parfait was the best parfait I've ever had!! No lie!! The Loco Moco and the kalua pig are amazing! The service was excellent we never had to wait for a thing! The characters stayed at each table for a good bit and were super interactive. ”
“ Delicious and what a very nice setting. Great service, great meal, great drinks! Paradise. The catch of the day was a big win!! ”
“ Overall an excellent experience!! It’s true that you, in very Disney fashion, wait in lines before your breakfast! We enjoyed tofu scramble and eggs Benedict. I would only comment that the tofu scramble was under seasoned to my taste. I asked for hot sauce on the side. Both portions were huge and we were quite stuffed by the end. ”
“ This is one of the cheaper dining options at the resort and offers a really solid character experience for breakfast. So please keep in mind that breakfast food is not the main draw for this place instead it’s the experience of interacting with Minnie mouse, Chip and Dale, and other Disney characters. That being said, breakfast was decent but heavy on the carbs with limited options for starters and entres. The service was really on point as it is with Disney in general. You definitely need to reserve a spot for the character experience breakfast. Walking in without a reservation is not going to happen with this place! ”
