Kihei Caffe, Kihei, Maui, HI


The Kehei Caffe is one of my all time favorite breakfast places in the world. With traditional, homemade island favorites like loco moco, and their island twist on traditional breakfast faves like macadami nut and banana French Toast, as well as tradional breakfast foods, Kihei Caffe has something for everyone. I try to visit this restaurant every time in in Maui so I've sampled a large portion of their menu, and a couple of my favorites are the chicken fried steak and the loco moco.

The Chicken fried steak comes with steak, two eggs (over medium please), home fries and a biscuit, for a little extra you can get gravy on your biscuit as well. The steak is good, but its the gravy and the home fries that make this meal one of my favorites. Large chunks of sausage in  a creamy gravy and the hand slice fried potatoes make this dish the winner that it is. This is a great post surfing meal.


Loco moco is a hawaiian  dish that consists of rice, topped with a hamburger patty, topped with fried eggs, and then smothered in brown gravy. It might not sound appetizing, but trust me it is very, very good, the flavors all seem to blend together perfectly for an amazing, savory breakfast experience.


Kehei Caffe also has some great baked goods as well. If you like french toast they have several different types, some are just daily specials, to choose from. If they have the macadamia nut and banana French toast, I'd recommend that,with coconut syrup. They also have to die for homemade cinnamon rolls available in many different flavors as well.


If you find yourself on the south side of Maui, near Kehei, and your are in the mood for some great food, I'd recommend stopping by the Kehei Caffe. Get here early and bring cash, because they don't accept credit and the lines can get really long.


Overall score: A
