“Great place to try authentic Indian food! I ordered the coconut shrimp curry, and it was really delicious, nicely spiced and full of flavor. I got it medium, and honestly, it was still pretty spicy. I usually eat and enjoy spicy food, but this had some serious heat, so I probably wouldn’t recommend going “hot” unless you’re very confident.
The service and atmosphere were both on point. Even though it was busy, our order came out pretty quickly, which was impresive.
Highly recommend!“

“Worth the wait!!!! Thank you to the lovely host team who got us a seat at the bar every night, we visited four times during our week long vacation! Louie & Dylan were incredibly welcoming, every cocktail they made tasted like tropical paradise. You can tell that Chef Kenny pours so much love and care into the daily specials, highly recommend ordering all the pastas before they sell out! Our favorite meal on the entire island was the Ono crudo special with avocado, salsa matcha & pickled pineapple… wow, we will be thinking about this bite for years to come!
Do not skip dessert, it’s a must! Especially the lemon crumble ice cream. Thanks again to the whole team front & back for making my birthday trip feel so special, you made us feel like family & we can’t wait to visit again ❤️
Without a doubt it will be our first stop on our next kauai vacation!“

“This place has such a great vibe, and one of the coolest things is that you can actually watch them prepare your breakfast right in front of you. It's such a neat, engaging experience!

And the food? Oh my goodness, the pastries and breads are out of this world. They're all baked fresh, and there's a huge, mouth-watering variety to choose from every single day. Plus, for anyone with dietary needs, they even have a fantastic selection of gluten-free pastries and bread, which is awesome to see – they really cater to everyone.

Full disclosure, it is a little on the pricier side, I won't lie. But honestly, the quality of the ingredients, the fresh preparation right before your eyes, and the overall delightful atmosphere really make it worth every single penny. You truly feel the value in every bite!

Seriously, if you're ever looking for a super enjoyable breakfast or brunch, I couldn't recommend this place more highly!“

“Delicious poke. VERY expensive.

The poke here is outstanding. Very fresh and flavorful and their flavor choices are awesome. Love the toppings too. But the portion is incredibly small for the price so we probably will not return. There is poke just as good for more affordable at other places!

Outdoor only seating on a small patio but we didn’t have trouble finding a table.“
