As multiple generations of local diners can attest, New Eagle Cafe continues to serve up an alluring array of local-style comfort food favorites at affordable prices.
The popular dining destination is located in Nimitz Center, conveniently situated along Nimitz Highway in the heart of one of Honolulu’s bustling business districts. Owner Tae Im took over operations nearly three years ago and continues the restaurant’s rich legacy of serving stellar local-style favorites while providing excellent customer service. The restaurateur is well aware of the rich history New Eagle Cafe has established through more than 80 years in Honolulu, and is committed to continuing the locale’s rich tradition of serving Island residents and visitors.
