I loved sitting in the bar. Hostess made me feel comfortable. Probably should make reservations. I was a walk in @ 5pm.
Stopped in here after spending time on poipu beach for sunset. Really cute Italian restaurant in Kauai with great staff and kitchen. We got the fried zucchini for the appetizer and melanzane alla parmigiana for the entree to share. Both were really really yummy. The eggplant parm came with this delicious arrabbiata sauce for the spaghetti which I loved. We were too full for dessert but really liked this restaurant. Our waiter Jack was also super nice!
