Amelia Campbell-DrexlerJuly 11, 2012Try everything pancakes (bananas, pineapple, macadamia nuts, and their homemade jam) delish! Less busy in the early morning, kind and attentive service and great for a breakfast on a budget :)
Nikki 🌺January 12, 2017Local diner that is cheap, no frills, and serves delicious macadamia nut pancakes!! Will definitely be back.
Cinda BitzFebruary 16, 2014This place is busy but well worth it! Ate here twice on our vacation and would highly recommend the loco moco and the oxtail soup. Now we can see why the locals rave!!
Jason ChuanApril 25, 2011#TipTop is a historic slice of Kauai. Elvis, the Coco Palms Resort (Blue Hawaii location) are long gone, but Tip Top lives on as the 50's/60's affordable place to sleep & eat.
Brian ChaseMay 12, 2015I prefer Ono Family Restaurant in Kapaa for breakfast, but if you are looking for breakfast in Lihue this is a good spot. The locals come here too.
Jami Fiore UllrichFebruary 4, 2015Great pancakes. But if you like bacon make sure you order yours crispy. Toast was soooo good too. Yes the toast. @808plate
Robert MadisonMarch 6, 2017Great breakfast! Reasonably priced and a place where the locals go. The loco moco is their special!
Robin JonesOctober 9, 2014Tasty local fare at good prices. We split the Chinese Special and it was plenty of food for two.
Marcella SchlegelSeptember 24, 2021Grand Slam breakfast... Better have an appetite! Tasty banana pancakes, rice, eggs, Spam. Yum.
Robert LeeSeptember 2, 2011Got the grand slam - the goteburg sausage was spicy, but the outstanding part was the banana pineapple pancakes! Try them with coconut AND maple!
Jeff MartensSeptember 16, 2023Visitors: Leave this to the locals. You won't consider it to be anything special.
Loco Moco with fried rice! Then you add in a hash brown for crunch and Tabasco for a little kick! YUM!!!
- Kahuna MatataJanuary 11, 2013Try the Coffee - The sugar is in a container that looks like Mac Nut Syrup!! Love the service trolleys!!
- Kahuna MatataJanuary 11, 2013Try the Grand Slam - #GrandSlam w #GoteburgSausage (OMFG. LOVE IT!!) scrambled eggs, hash browns. First time eating Goteburg!!!
Gary KeethJuly 24, 2018Food is very good, the hotel is a rip-off? $100 a night for something less than a Motel 6.
Chad RDecember 15, 2010Very low prices, but they are pretty serious about stopping serving breakfast at 11am. Also, lunch is only served from 11 to 1:45. I'm serious. No exceptions! Lol
Gene ChuangOctober 19, 2010Local atmosphere, almost hospital setting with waitress in nurse scrubs pushing around trays. But good loco moco
Jen BekmanDecember 29, 2011Loud, uncharming + none too clean. You're much better off @ Ono Family Restaurant if local flavor's what you're after.
Justine EzarikAugust 27, 2009if you just landed in Kauai and looking for a good breakfast spot.. this is it! fast and tasty.. look out for the chickens crossing the street. they are closed on Mondays though!
