how it all started
Daybreak Island Grill was founded with the vision of bringing the diverse and rich flavors of Hawaiian cuisine to the mainland. Hawaiian food is a melting pot of culinary traditions, influenced by Polynesian voyagers, native Hawaiian practices, and the various immigrant cultures that have settled in the islands over the years. From earth oven-cooked meats to dishes inspired by Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Filipino, and Portuguese cuisines, Daybreak Island Grill captures this diversity in its menu offerings.
