I just love this Italian restaurant because they cater to my gluten and cow dairy free dietary needs. The pasta, pesto, and goat cheese alternatives are fantastic and served in a friendly, cordial manner.

Chill vibes with top-notch service and a dash of island history on the side, but bring your wallet - it's a bit pricey.

Reservations were recommended but we had no wait, arriving around 4:30pm. The staff was incredibly friendly, drinks and appetizers were served promptly, and every dish ordered was cooked to perfection. One of our party has Celiac disease/wheat allergy and the server was knowledgeable about every item on the menu, making this experience safe for her. Highly recommend.

Was just there with my wife who is gluten free. She had the Hawaiian pizza and said it was one of the best pizzas ever! I myself had a regular pepperoni and sausage pizza. Really good wood fired crust. Would definitely go back!
Big Monster Sushi & Thai
3-3204 Kuhio Hwy, Lihue, Hawaii, United States
A fusion of Japanese and Thai cuisine, this spot is a hit for its flavorful sushi rolls and Thai curries, despite a confusing shrimp tempura policy.

Great place to eat for gluten free. Items are clearly marked on the menu. When I told the server I was Celiac she helped make sure everything was gluten free. Everything we ate was delicious!
