I explained many times to the waitress that I have I have celiac (gluten free), and also have a potato allergy and I wanted to order the ribs. For the side she recommended the salad since I can't have fries, and I said no croutons since they contain gluten. The ribs were delicious and I will be back for them, but as I was already halfway through eating my salad I noticed two small croutons hidden under some of it. I don't know if they premake the salads and just picked off the croutons or what, but the salad is definitely not celiac safe if that is the level of care you put into making them safe for people with food allergies. We deserve to eat out just like everyone else and just like with any medical condition we are allowed to ask for accommodations.

Don’t sleep on The Bistro Kilauea happy hour. The food and drinks were delicious. We had the Na Pali Pear Martini (best martini I have ever had), fish rockets, ribs, chicken, and burger. Everything was so good. Cassie was also great!

Amazing spot! We were on the way to beach and stopped here for some lunch. Great service and the pork was amazing! Thanks 🙏🏼

My mother and I both ordered the seafood gumbo. Key word here being “SEAFOOD”. What we got instead was a bowl with one piece of shrimp, one mussel, no fish, and then about 90% chicken. It didn’t taste bad, but I didn’t order a chicken bowl. We told the waitress and she didn’t seem to care the least. Needless to say, never coming back to this place.

I couldn’t decide what I enjoyed the most…we ordered all of the small plates and loved them all! This place is amazing…

Of the somewhat limited options up north The Bistro was a pleasant surprise. Happy Hour is great: 1/2 off beer, wine and Mai Tais --- not just $2/3 off. The prosciutto wrapped goat cheese was one of the best appetizers my wife had ever had. My seared ahimsa entree was fabulous. And best of all was the service from Isabel. Honest, not pushy, with her recommendations. The only place we've found so far that we would recommend to friends and return to in a heartbeat.
I always get takeout and I get the linguine and the ribs? super delicious

My husband and I visited Kauai for my birthday and stayed in Princeville. We chose this restaurant because it was nearby, as we didn’t want to drive too far in the dark. We would have given it a perfect 5/5 for the food, but the pasta fell just a bit short. My husband is Italian and had high expectations, which unfortunately weren’t fully met. However, we loved the ambiance, and the service was excellent—our server was very kind.

Staying up in Princeville - My wife and I were at the bakery next door for breakfast a couple of mornings this week and saw this place and decided to give it a try. SO GLAD WE DID. Service was excellent and food was out of this world. Started with the Fish Rockets and a Caesar salad. My wife had the Seafood Gumbo and I had the Ribeye special and we finished with the Chocolate Decadence for dessert. Perfect place for dinner. (BTW, one reviewer said he left this place hungry…not sure what he ordered, but portion size was above what I expected)
Parking: Plenty of parking across the street if you don’t mind walking a short bit
