A gem in Hanalei, this lively spot boasts a vibrant atmosphere, amazing live music, and a cozy, tropical decor that invites relaxation.
We came to this restaurant excited for the food based off recommendations from online and gluten free forums. My wife has celiac and we made that clear with our waitress Sarah. Sarah was kind to us but was a little slow on service even though it didn't seem incredibly busy. We waited about 5-10 minutes to get seated and then another 5-10 minutes to get water and menus. Then we waited about 20 minutes before our order was taken and drinks refilled. Sarah was knowledgeable about the menu and provided some recommendations which we trusted. I got the Zesty Coconut Catch and my wife ordered the Soy Wasabi Local Catch gluten free. The food took about 10-15 to get to our table but the lady running it gave it to the table next to us first and then to us. The food was superbly mediocre. Not great not bad. Super dissapointing to spend $100 on food that wasn't good. The only thing I have to compliment is the fish was cooked well. Overall not a bad place but super dissapointed at the quality for the price.

Unforgettable flavors shine through in the amazing curries, offering delightful options for everyone with generous portions and a vibrant atmosphere.
We had the Coconut Shrimp Curry and the Fish Curry, both of which were excellent. The hummus naan was also delicious, and it was a generous portion size. Both curries were gluten-free, but unfortunately the rumors about gluten-free naan are false. Overall, the food was awesome and the staff was friendly. Thank you!

Renowned for its exceptional sushi, this spot shines with standout offerings like the Kamakani and Tekka hand roll, ensuring an unforgettable experience.
Avoid! Extremely rude! My wife and daughter attempted to ask about gluten free. Our daughter has celiac. The man they spoke with insulted them and spoke harshly to them.
