Kp Lihue

Honestly I was surprised. Like who gets Italian when coming to Kauai? Us, lol! But I was shocked at how good it was. I got the pesto chicken Alfredo, very tasty. My boyfriend got the chicken parm. It’s one of the best pesto we’ve had. Our server was so nice and sweet! Loved it

Food was great, ambience was great, prices not so much. $20 salad will jever sit right with me. Pasta is $20 then it costs another $10 just to add meat. Overall good experience, but never been to a more expensive Italian place.

Summary: Okay Service with Okay Vegan Food. Service: the Bartender seemed amazing. She greeted us and started the night great. We wish we would have sat at the bar for better service. Our server was not particularly nice, nor went out of her way to make the vegan options work for us. For example, we wanted the pasta marinara with three veggies added. She instead said to do the Greek pasta but remove the feta, remove the parm, remove the oil garlic sauce, add marinara, and remove the other vegetables that we didn 't want. In doing so our meals went from $15 each to $22 each... Ambience: one of the nicer sit down restaurants on the island but nothing to write home about. Food: the pasta was average. We certainly did not get a nearly as much food as the onnivores around us. We saw people 's dishes piled high with meats and pastas and veggies while ours was probably 40% pasta, 30% uncooked spinach and 30% other vegetables at a regular plate size. Normally, we never complain about portion sizes, but again being upcharged from $15 to $22 per plate we definitely expected similar sizes to the omnivores sitting next to us. Also, it would not have mattered as much if there was an appetizer that could be made vegan. The bruschetta seemed promising but our server told us there is cheese on the bread and therefore we were out of luck (suggestion: take off the cheese because traditional bruschetta does not have cheese on it. Either way, it was nice to have a hot vegan meal, but we definitely left disappointed overall and would only return if we were starving with no other options.

This place was some of the best Italian cuisine I had. I'm sad to go back to the mainland where I can't find this food in my city. I have the meatball sandwich and my man has the alfredo. great service and great eating!

This Italian restaurant in Lihue is disguised as regular house or business but inside en cozy environment, very good food served by a friendly staff
