With no reservations, we had a 30 minute wait |
With the three day weekend here, we were fortunate enough to enjoy a three night stay at a nice hotel in Waikiki. While fun and full of activity, Waikiki has always suffered from a lack of good eateries for the discerning diner. Consulting Yelp, we decided to take a chance on a small cafe tucked away in a nearly forgotten corner of this tourist jungle.
Goofy Cafe & Dine seats about 50 and highlights locally sourced food at a price reasonable for it's quality and location. The highlights of the evening were the Hamakua mushrooms sauteed in garlic and oil as an appetizer and a Pesto pasta with Kahulu Shrimp for the entree.
Mushrooms and garlic. Nice and simple |
Homemade pesto absolutely made this meal |
Both dishes were simple and delicious highlighting the freshness of locally sourced mushrooms and vegetables.
As they take reservations, I would recommend coming here for those who like non-chain quirky cooking with a charming atmosphere.
Thanks for playing.
