Talk about top tier service! Our waitress was SO friendly and knowledgeable! She made great recommendations and shared so much about the different dishes. The kitchen was super accommodating to both gluten and nut allergies. Our party of four all loved our meals (I got the pesto GF with shrimp!). We had just gotten off a long flight and this was the perfect spot to visit first, as we felt very welcomed. Would definitely recommend stopping in if you’re looking for something filling and delicious!
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.
Wonderful experience at this restaurant! We were quickly seated even without a reservation and during a busy time! The food was really good, and they were super accommodating of both a gluten and a nut allergy (I could’ve cried happy tears when our server brought out GF soy sauce without me even asking!). The price was just right and the service was super friendly and quick. If you're in the area and looking for a great meal with accommodating service, this spot is a must-try!
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!
Fabulous food! We loved all of it and they were wonderful at accommodating one of our party’s gluten allergy. I highly recommend the green curry mahi mahi!
Delicious food and lots of gluten-free options! Food is all takeout, but there’s a nice covered eating area in the courtyard near the place. The food was very tasty, and the staff was so friendly.
Amazing iced latte
Amazing gluten free banana bread (no reaction)
Pretty good açaí bowl with PB, avoid the granola (had a reaction)
Overall great place with view
Very nice staff
I loved the live music that helped the atmosphere but idk if I’ve been to a resultant with more cranky staff. We waited 20+ to even be approached by our waiter. We were trying to get her attention for 30 minutes to get the check at the end.
When we did get our food, Half the food was clearly done significantly before it was brought out. To be fair we had a group of nine. Everyone from the greeter to the waiter seemed angry. The vibration here is super low.
The food was fine but nothing to write home about. To be honest, the crankiness when we asked about things like gluten free options just made you feel like a huge burden. Not impressed would never recommend this restaurant. You have lots of options don’t go here
This is the BEST place in Kauai! We LOVE their açaí bowls! Fresh, locally sourced ingredients and friendly staff. You can feel the love in the food! Amazing place not to miss! Good for people who need gluten free, low sugar and non dairy options.
This place is the middle of the industrial area, not expected for the food they turn out. There was not a lot of gluten free items on the menu to chose from (too much soy sauce on this island), but I asked and they were able to adjust a dish. They made me some grilled mahi mahi, rice, and veggies. It was wonderful and one of the few places I felt like the portion matched to he price. Great people and great food
Very good local poke place, everything was fresh and flavorful. They were very helpful with recommending things for my gluten allergy. Good portion for the price too. The toppings are pay by weight.
We were only on Kauai for 6 days and made 4 trips to the bakery, trying a number of their delightful treats. After consuming a bag of their sweet potato cookies, we decided that was the perfect gift to take home. We absolutely loved their coconut macaroons and the cheesecake, returning on one trip just to get another. Their sweets are real, made with butter and cane sugar and often with gluten free almond flour. If you are in the Lihu’e area, this is a must stop. We had chosen to buy food in a grocery store rather than eating out, but their sweet treats made it a requirement to break that rule to get their delicacies.
We’ve eaten here two days in a row now. The food is amazing, especially for someone gluten and dairy free. My kids begged for it this morning. Delicious, refreshing, and filling! Highly recommend stopping by this cute little truck!
I was very pleasantly surprised with the food here! We needed some food after our flight and the service here was quick! Plates came with a lot of food and was SO good. I'm also gluten free and while there wasn't a dedicated menu, there was plenty of GF options
Hualani’s is amazing. The food is delicious, the atmosphere is so relaxing with stunning views and the service is excellent! We had the pot stickers and scallops for appetizers which were both incredible. For dinner, we had the fresh catch of the day, the curry with shrimp and the fresh fish kids meal. All were seasoned well and hearty portions. My son has Celiac and they had plenty of options for him but were limited on dessert. For dessert we had the chocolate cake and the banana lumpia. All were very good. Great place to stop by on your way in or out of the airport!
I take my breakfast spots very seriously, and this spot was AMAZING! The scrambled eggs with Portuguese sausage and pork with rice was fantastic. I also got the huli chicken pesto panini gluten free to have for lunch later, which I haven’t found many places in Hawai’i with gluten free sandwiches so that was great to begin with, but that was also SO good. Such a cute little place, great quality food that price wise is also reasonable compared to a lot of other places in the area. I would eat here every day if I could.
We stopped here for lunch and it was delicious! The people were very kind and helpful. One person in our group has Celiacs and was able to happily eat the Mahi Mahi lunch plate! I had the grilled pineapple teriyaki burger and it was fantastic! Crisp lettuce, fresh tomato, a slice of pineapple, and plenty of sauce!
Awesome owner had great energy and was super helpful! Despite being busy he gave us a lot of personal time and even wrote out recommendations for my celiac husband. It was nice to have vegan cream cheese as an option but I was personally hoping for a nut-based cream cheese rather than what tasted more like violife. Just a personal preference. Good everything bagel and fresh greens on top. Didn’t try the coffee but heard it’s good!
We both had the breakfast special..our server was great at knowing what was gluten free. Everything from sitting at the table, getting our food and paying was so efficient... something I truly appreciate!
