Paniolo Santa Maria Style BBQ is a hidden gem in Kapaa that offers more than just a meal. This restaurant features live music, a BYOB policy, and a unique atmosphere that sets it apart from other dining spots. The menu boasts delicious options like the "Senior Plate" with boneless short ribs, rice, salad, and garlic bread, as well as grilled cheese with green chile. The ono fish sandwich and ribs are also highly recommended for their grill flavor. The restaurant is known for its friendly service, generous portions, and reasonable prices, making it a must-visit, especially for families with kids. Customers have praised the delicious food, including the best Mai Tai on Kauai, the tri-tip, and the ono fish. The live music, provided by the talented ukulele player Ruby Flambe, adds to the lively and welcoming atmosphere.
