Garlic Fried Rice - The Real Breakfast of ChampionsFilipinos have a lot of trump cards, but morning cuisine was a hand I thought the Hoosiers had. I'm not saying this beats your traditional 2x2x2 or gravy laden plate, but A2Z's splash of Oceanside removed the very notion of cortisol from my system. Don't worry though, service remained the Midwest nonchalant we all know and love, believe that.It's a must to kick things off with some fried biscuits for the table. I'm firmly a savory guy, but a sampler of hot cinnamon sugar dough deserves the play. Following this up with some marinated Tapsilog steak strips felt akin to a well-timed no-look one-two passing combo. Seamless and sexy.Could the portions have been larger? Absolutely. But coming off of Thanksgiving everything feels too small. Just a growing boy finding his way in the world, can you blame me?

Three cheers for this cafe. It's one of the most wonderful places to eat in Indianapolis. I've eaten here more than a dozen times. That included immediately after two surgeries, and I found it comforting. The construction nearby has really screwed things up for this mom and pop place, which is brutishly unfair. The food is terrific. I've had omelets and the breakfast burritos. My sister always gets the country fried steak and gravy. My mom and dad jump around the menu. We've always been pleased.Once we got slow service. They were packed and might have been a tad understaffed. Our server ran her butt off, but our service was definitely slow. So the next time we were there, after my second surgery, we had the same server. She remembered us, remembered the slow service, and apologized for it. I was amazed. We hadn't complained to anybody or withheld a dime from her tip.Please come to A2Z at least once if you're on this side of town. You won't find better food at a better price. The owners will be there and make frequent rounds through the dining areas greeting customers, refilling drinks, and doing whatever else is needed. It has a Polynesian theme to it so there are interesting things on the menu and wonderful decor. The ingredients on everything are super fresh. I might go tomorrow, maybe 1ish.

Not long ago, we wanted to try a new restaurant for breakfast and / or lunch with selections not commonly found on a typical breakfast or lunch menu. After browsing the online menu, A2Z offered several unique entrees not on most restaurants' menus and specialty brunch dishes served on weekends. We were excited to learn they served Mimosas, Bloody Mary's, or a specialty cocktail with brunch. We enjoyed the Bloody Mary's with brunch, and the brunch experience did not disappoint.Parking was easy with several handicapped parking spaces in front of the restaurant. Booths, 4-top tables, and a small countertop are the seating selections inside with a small outdoor sidewalk patio available. It looked crowded when we arrived, but we were seated immediately in a comfortable booth just behind the partitioned wall. The atmosphere is fun and colorful, with Hawaiian decor intertwined throughout. The menu serves many of our favorite breakfast and lunch options with several delightful Hawaiian selections.A few of the Hawaiian breakfast options are Loco Moco and Hawaiian Five-O, which were very popular, and brunch options are fun and unique, with Hawaiian pulled Luau pork as well as the traditional breakfast options. Traditonal breakfast selections include biscuits and gravy, several types of omelets, pancakes, French toast, and Country Fried Steak. Note Eggs Benedicts are only served on the weekends.My husband ordered the Meatloaf Manhattan with a generous serving of meatloaf, fluffy mashed potatoes, with an unremarkable gravy. He said it was decent and would order again. Keep in mind, he grew up with a southern mother who made everything from scratch, and that is his benchmark for all meatloaf.I had the pulled pork, which was excellent.Our server was extremely friendly, answered all our questions, and checked on us often. We will certainly be back again and sit on the patio if the weather permits.We had a nice time and appreciated the privacy offered by the partitions.

Have always wanted to stop by for breakfast and was not disappointed! Service and staff were top notch, and the traditional Hawaiian Loco Moco took me back to the North Shore! Such a great vibe ... can't wait to visit them again at their new place just west of their current shop on 96th. Definitely check them out, and eat local! Mahalo & Aloha!

I wanted to go here because of the Hawaiian items on the menu, specifically the spam musabi. When I arrived at 12p on a Sat, they were packed! I had to wait about 3 min just for a seat at the bar. I noticed on the menu that it said the spam musubi was available in limited quantities, so I was surprised when they said they still has some. I ordered one spam musubi, one Ala carte French toast (2 pieces) and a POG to drink. The musabi was good, but I felt like it had too much rice. The flavoring of the spam was overpowered by the rice. The POG was mostly orange juice. But the French toast was good. And the service was good too. I don't know of I'll be back. I was a bit disappointed. The items are definitely better in Hawaii.

It feels like you've stepped into an island cafe with colorful beach decor. Atmosphere was jovial and wait staff were sincerely friendly. Breakfast options were traditional fare or unique. I was very satisfied with my Hawaiian breakfast of spam made just right complemented by delightful coconut rice. Plate was rounded out by eggs your way and gently browned slices of pineapple. My sister had eggs Benedict amplified by Portuguese sausage. Also kudos to a smooth bitter-free cup of coffee. Let's not forget- a creamy tub of key lime pie 'cause who says you can't have dessert with breakfast.

Open since the twenty-teens, this family-owned restaurant on 96th Street provided a cozy, fun, and family-friendly atmosphere. Overall, the service quick, friendly and welcoming. Our first picks? A steaming cup of hot chocolate topped with whipped cream--a winter warmer! Next up, the Portuguese sausage platter for a little spicy kick. Includes coconut rice! A nod to the owners cultural heritage. The Suburban breakfast--2 eggs, meat, pancakes, and potatoes for the ultimate American brunch experience. Don't miss the healthy and vibrant Red, White, and Green Omelette filled with spinach, bell peppers, and cheese! If you're looking for a new breakfast spot to take your family to enjoy head over to 4705 East 96th Street #35, Indianapolis, IN, 46240. Open Tue-Sun from 8:00 am to 2:00 pm. Your taste buds will thank you!

Wow. What a find. If you are looking for a local place with all kinds of atmosphere and fantastic food this is your place. Came here the morning after a the Sammy Hagar concert and it was fantastic. I had the low carb plate. The eggs were perfect. My son had the A2Z sandwich and it was flavorful. The service was very good. He was helpful and my Cody never went cold. This is a can't miss. Highly recommended.

I can't believe I've never been here. The food is excellent. The prices are fair, and they have unique options. The food is excellent, the prices are fair, and they differ uniquely from your typical lunch or breakfast options.The decor is quiet, clean, and well laid out. The atmosphere is cozy and contains beautiful paintings and comfortable tables and chairs. The owners are on-site and active in serving food and checking in with customers.I had the honey orange chicken, and it was delicious. It was well seasoned and great portion size that allowed me to be satisfied but not stuffed. If you've had oragne chicken and enjoyed it then you owe it to yourself to to check out this dish.On another note, all these businesses west of Allisonville are being heavily impacted by the road construction. If you are a fan of supporting locally owned businesses that serve great food, please make the time to patronize A2Z Cafe. This is definitely a place that improves the food cuisine in our city.
