M.A.C. 24/7 is A Rare “Local” Dining Spot in Waikiki

Oahu • May 18, 2021
M.A.C. 24/7

For a restaurant to attract a large local following can only mean one thing. The food is so good that it’s worth the visit to Waikiki.

 M.A.C. 24/7 ’s award-winning menu features American and local favorites with a gourmet twist, prepared with local ingredients whenever possible.  The restaurant received international acclaim when their world-famous five pound M.A.C. Daddy Pancakes were featured on Travel Channel’s “Man Vs. Food”.  

“We were open during part of the pandemic with the support of our local customers” says F&B Manager Gary Manago. “That support was built from years of serving outstanding food.”

M.A.C. 24/7 was also recently voted “Best Late-Night Eats – Best of Honolulu” by Honolulu Magazine and “People’s Choice Best Breakfast 2018-2019” by the Honolulu Star Advertiser (there are those locals again!).  You want to eat like a local in Waikiki? M.A.C. 24/7 is, as the locals say, “broke da mouth” delicious.
