Nestled in the heart of Waikiki is Goofy Cafe and Dine.

This chill surfer spot caters to the idea that eating local is the very best way to eat. This results in heavenly french toast and acai bowls topped with fresh Hawaiian fruit and honey. If you don’t want something sweet, Goofy also has omelettes you’ll crave. Everyone in our party was able to find something they loved. We didn’t try Goofy’s lunch dishes, but we saw some being taken to other tables, and that was enough to make our mouths water. Seriously, this place could be the best restaurant in Hawaii.

The restaurant itself is rather small. There aren’t many big tables. We had to wait for around 40 minutes to even get in the door, and there were 6 parties in front of us. It’s difficult because they won’t give you a wait time; you just sign in on a paper outside. While you wait there is limited seating outside the restaurant, and you’ll have to make room for people walking by on the small balcony. However, once you get some of Goofy’s food, you’ll forget all about the wait. 

In the words of one of the members of our party, “It can’t not have sugar and taste this good.” And yet, they don’t put extra sugar in anything. The staff is friendly and the open air environment is very relaxing. Goofy is the best place to eat in Hawaii. You’ll regret it if you don’t go.
