Cafe Ko Olina Place of Joy by Michel’s

I ate at Cafe Ko Olina twice when I was staying at Aulani Resort and Spa and oh boy was food good. On my first trip I had shaved ice and my kids loved it. On the second trip I had loco moco and my partner had ASAP. I my loco moco the best I had. Highly recommend to visit this place... at least forbthe loco moco.

Our new favorites at the Cafe: Seafood & Vegetable Cartoccio, Nanban Chicken. Assortment of fresh seafood steamed with veggies in a light and tangy broth. Nanban Chicken is very tender and goes great with the special thousand island sauce. Service is excellent as usual. Highly recommended!

Such a wonderful find, only a short stroll from our resort! My sweetheart and I ate here three times and totally enjoyed the friendly service, healthy ingredients, generous portions and delicious food!

Make sure to try their shaved ice, hands down the best by far we had on the island, topped with fresh fruit, condensed milk and coconut ice cream!! It was so so yummy and one is big enough for two to share. 🍧💕

This place is a little gem nestled among the Ko Olina resorts. If I understand correctly, it's a restaurant run by a wedding caterer out of the chapel due to the pandemic. They offer outdoor dining in addition to take out. You'll find the entrance to the right of Aulani (when you face Aulani) at the bottom of the chapel steps. Prices are more reasonable than resort food prices. Husband I got Japanese curry rice with shrimp and tonkatsu. We liked the food so much that we ate here a total of three times during our weeklong stay at Aulani. We also enjoyed the gourmet chopped salad, ASAP bowl, eggs omelet with beef stew/tomato pilaf, and mango shave ice. The shave ice is SO GOOD! My daughter and I shared it three times. Fine ice topped with chunks of mango and vanilla ice cream. So much better than Aulani's shave ice - no contest.

Me and my wife are on our honeymoon in Hawaii and decided to eat here. They're food is delicious 😋 I had they're cheese burger with fries with a coke. They're hamburger pattie was really thick. The service was great. I would recommend anyone that is visiting Hawaii to try this place out. Keep up the good work.
