A few gluten free options (knowledgeable server). I have celiac so I did not get the fries as they are in a shared frier. The fish tacos were pretty good!
We ordered gluten free pasta for my son who needs to be gluten free. First of all they said it would take 30 minutes. We went back after 40 minutes and they said it would be another 20 min. Also I walked through the restaurant after we placed our order, to use the restroom, and it was not busy. When we finally got the gf marinara pasta, it was falling apart, I think it was supposed to be penne, but it was hard to tell because they cooked it too long, and it was falling apart. The taste was not good and it was very bland. I don’t know why some restaurants, that are supposed to be Italian, don’t know that the pasta water needs to be salted, before you cook the pasta. I can’t believe we paid $27 for pasta that is terrible. We should have bought pasta from the market across the way and a jar of marinara sauce which would have been less expensive and better tasting. In my opinion this place just needs to close and hopefully something better will take its place. If you want good pasta and gluten free options go to Pueos Osteria in Waikoloa village.
Our family of four enjoyed a sunset meal at this wonderful restaurant. We made reservations on a Wednesday evening. The atmosphere was intentional with a nice mix of energy and sophistication. Our server, Braxton, provided thoughtful service being attentive to the gluten sensitivity. We chose the Mixed Grill, Blackened Ahi, Miso Butterfish and Opakapaka. The food was well prepared, plates visually appealing and portions were satisfying. The signature dishes held up to their fame. Pricing set the stage for a celebratory dinner. Certainly, would return when in the area again.
**Food Poisoning** We were so looking forward to dining here, it was the final meal of our incredible vacation. The location is gorgeous and our server was attentive. I was disappointed that only a couple dishes could be made gluten free for me and both my husband and son felt that the 3 small pieces of ahi were just not enough for entree portions. In hindsight, I'm glad they only had 3 pieces; just hours after our meal, my son became violently sick. He vomited all through the night. Such a disappointing way to end our vacation.
