Prime Roast Cafe

We had a couple of hours to spend while waiting for our Iolani Palace tour time. It was midday and we were hungry! There were not a lot of choices around that area, but we popped into the Prime Roast Cafe. How lucky were we to find this spot?! A quaint, hole-in-the-wall ... in the best possible way.... run by a husband and wife team. Only around 20-25 seats, so we were happy to have quiet spot to relax and eat. My husband had the Prime Rib Panini (I forgot to take a picture) and I chose prime rib by the ounce with a side a rice. Wow!!! The meat was succulent and tender and the rice was so flavorful. Not sure how they made it, I should have asked. I love cooking and especially love eating great food - but what makes it all the more special is stumbling upon a place and having it be a highlight of my trip.

Chef Celeste is a gem!!! The location is close to my office and we all are went to support the CNMI fundraiser. It was the best idea ever. This restaurant is right off King St but unassuming. As soon as we walked in we were welcomed by Chef and she gracefully her background and the menu. Her team put our meals together quickly for our table of 8. The presentation and flavors were all perfect. I recommend this place to all in the area and visitors.

We stumbled upon this spot just walking around downtown and decided to order takeout after looking at the menu. Insidr is small and cozy, and great feel to it. We ordered the salmon and the rime rib French dip. Both were amazing, cooked perfect, and well seasoned. The French dip was probably the best I've had in a long time and all the food was so filling and the service was awesome. This is a great find and we will definitely be going back!

Lots of locally sourced ingredients used and cooked from scratch. The apple tart is ono! Had the burger, which was tender & tasty, I don't usually eat meat but it was the special for a charity event for CNMI w 100% of proceeds going to help them. The owner is fab & so kind!!! Definitely a great hidden gem in downtown. The others in my party had either the burger or prime rib & all enjoyed their selections.

Dont walk RUN to this delicious cafe. Ok so parking can be a challange but where isnt in downtown. Staff super friendly, welcoming and effient. Place was clean which is always a plus. Ok now the food. I ordered the French dip thinking I would save half for my son HA!!! It was gone before i made it to tje Ala Moana Mall. Roll perfectʻy toasted, the beef was like butter(definitely a slight smoked flavour), I am not a Fan of smoked meat but this was so slight I cant wait to go back. The salad dressing was to die for. And the French Apple OMG . They said it takes 3 days to make. I would wait 3 weeks, months or years. YES it was that good. I am definitely gonna pick up a side hustle to pay for my new adiction! Mahalo for the Ono food
