Very nice, quaint place to eat. We sat outside. Our server was pleasant and thorough. Their menu is seasonal, so seemingly it changes a bit. But that's good because the food we had was very fresh. French toast was delicious. Fluffy and flavorful. My gf had the orange blossom pancakes that was equally delicious. All in all a great brunch.

I ate here for dinner on Christmas Eve and really enjoyed their special pre fixe. It came with a very reasonable wine pairing as well. I'd love to come back on a slower night to eat the rest of the menu. I also really like their breakfast but they don't take reservations and it's gotten really popular so the wait's pretty long. The baked goods like daily muffins and scones are excellent. Parking in Puck's Alley.

The place was busy, but the lines moved quite fast! The food was delicious and had a fairly big servings. I eat quite a lot so it was not enough for me. It was slightly pricy (average $18 a meal), but I think it's American prices. Regardless, the waiters were really nice and the food were an interesting mix of Asian food with American food!

This unassuming little spot tucked behind a building in a very busy pay lot makes the effort to get there well beyond the price of your time. The staff were delightful and knew the menu well. We started with specialty cocktails which were perfect both visually and in taste. I ordered the Pork Belly Eggs Benedict which is divine. The Pork Belly is tender, juicy, and has a somewhat smoky flavor. The poached egg was very delicate and soft. The English Muffin seemed a bit too crunchy for my taste (barely able to crack with a fork) I also tried the Brunch Stack which is a generous sight and serving of Maple French Toast topped with cheese, topped with crispy bacon, then more french toast and syrup. I would recommend this dish every day! All in all The Nook is a place I tried to go to three times before (they are closed Monday's), I have had the best spontaneous moment today by being asked to brunch at The Nook. Now you go and ask someone and you both can enjoy The Nook too.

You should definitely check this place out..Whether your in the mood for a nice brunch and coffee with a friend or their to try the there "fried chicken and waffles", they have a nice little ambiance about the place..I personally prefer the dinner menu here..I've eaten almost everything on it. I mean I'm a chef so that's a given, right?...Excellent sweet potato gnocchi or there braised pork belly. Or if you'd prefer seafood they have a GREAT cioppino dish that's a must try!..Oh yeah and they have quite a pleasurable selection of spirits too..

What a yummy treat. Came here for breakfast with the 'ohana and the nook didn't disappoint! Even had a stuffed half papaya that day! Can't beat that. Lots of savory foods to order and quite a few drink choices, to boot. Pretty cozy spot so be prepared to squeeze in with your party or maybe even opt outside to grub for an open air experience. Nice one! Will be back next time we're on the islands.

I really enjoyed dining here! Our waiter Robbie was friendly and welcoming! I had the Nola iced coffee, Americano hot and chicken and waffle for breakfast here. I would recommend it every time! I will without a doubt come back here to eat!

You could tell they take pride in this place, everything about it was a hit, from the atmosphere to the great staff; everything you looked at tied this place together. The menu had such great options, they all sounded amazing, but I eventually went with the chicken and waffles and a cold brew coffee (and they were great). My friend and I tried the scone of the day when we went, and I believe it was a papaya scone with a lavender glaze, it sounded too good not to try and we were not disappointed.
