First: Kaka'ako Kitchen. Located inside of the Ward Centers, it opens before most of the stores does in the plaza. Seating is spacious and clean; ideal for morning moods.
Below, the Hawaiian Egg Bread French Toast and the Local Breakfast that comes with two eggs, sausage and home fried red potatoes. Since they use local produce, everything tasted fresh. At around $6 each, the generous servings are reasonably priced.

Boots & Kimos. A re-visit since two years ago and it’s becoming a town landmark locally and to me personally.
Below, Banana Pancake With Macadamia Nut Sauce $8.59, with just the right amount of creamy nutty sweetness on the fluffy stacks that reminded my now two years old love at first bite. The Hawaiian Smoked Sausage was very juicy and savory while the fried rice took a different turn being tasteless and dry.
Although I missed the old hole-in-the-wall decor, the larger sittings certainly shorten the wait while keeping their pancake hot and onolicious.

Kihei Caffe. Whether you are a tourist or a smiling local, this is a spot you don’t want to miss when you are in Kihei.
Besides the great location and the ocean front view, their offerings are sure worth all the yelp stars. Below, French Toast 7.5 (topped with banana and macadamia nut +2), it’s crispy out fluffy in and everything one could ask for. It’s almost worth waking up in the morning. Don’t hesitate to ask for a second jar of coconut syrup because it will run out before you notice it.
Above, the Loco Moco Local Fry 11.95. It’s Loco Moco over fried rice like two eggs and a hamburger patty wasn’t enough. No, really. It’s savory, satisfying and you don’t have to be a Hawaiian to appreciate it.

Gazebo Restaurant is located in one of the most beautiful private beach in the U.S.
Below, Combo Short Stack $8.25. Sausage & Eggs $9.5. Ocean view: priceless.
In case you haven’t already notice, I’m a pancake french toast addict. Gazebo’s version of my favorite staple was not the best I have had but with such view and a little walk of the beach afterwards, it’s unbeatable.
