The 38 Best Restaurants in Honolulu, Hawai‘i | Eater
"Before brunch hotspots popped up all over O‘ahu, Kailua was the go-to neighborhood for pancakes. Even now that you can get brunch pretty much anywhere, the neighborhood’s Over Easy remains one of the best places to start your day. The breakfast menu is short, but it’s still really hard to narrow down the options: On a recent visit, I sat at the counter by myself and ordered an entire stack of pancakes, along with a bowl of eggs and Portuguese sausage over rice in a bacon cabbage broth — it’s that hard to choose. Those pancakes are fluffy and crispy-edged, and the savory dishes are pure finessed comfort. Bring a friend so you can also get the eggs on toast smothered in potato cream. And the kalua pig hash. And the brunch bowl. A few years ago, owners Nik and Jennifer Lodendahn opened Easy ‘Que, but Over Easy remains a favorite. Know before you go: There’s usually a line, but it’s likely to be shorter early on a weekday." - Martha Cheng
