What an amazing experience!! Great view and great staff. Our server was phenomenal!! Food was so good!! The servers and check in staff all A++ Love this place !

Excellent service from our server who knew from memory the gluten free selections. Our steak and Ahi were both prepared perfectly. Ambience as always, breathtaking. Everyone, from the valet, to the welcoming committee at the desk, to the expediters really take a moment to make a connection however brief. Amazing in this age where it seems people are losing the ability to communicate. But the coup de gras? Gluten-free Mochi cake! Thanking the team for a gluten free dessert that is unique and memorable.

Delicious lunch and beautiful setting, sitting outdoors. Our waiter was attentive and conscious of the pacing of the entrees and desserts since we had to catch a flight. We had the monchong sandwich, crab and coconut curry, the red curry salmon, and the monchong entree. For dessert we had the chocolate lava cake and the bread pudding. All were delicious. Bread pudding was light and not heavy.

Sunday was the last night of our trip to Kauai and it was difficult to get Ubers to take us very far from Kapaa for dinner. We read about the interesting Japanese/Italian fusion at Naisla's and decided to give it a try. The outside is a bit unassuming, however, when you walk in it is just a really cool place. We had dinner at the bar and Stephanie was our bartender/server. She was engaging, very well informed about the menu and her service & attitude made the night really nice for us. Their were two appetizer specials - a cucumber salad that had an amazing umami and the wagyu hot rock with salted egg yolk and a wonderful Asian sauce for the dipping - this was nothing short of stellar. My wife had the Miso Carbonara and I had the Fettucine Pomodoro (very 'cheffy' idea to marinate the meatballs in ginger/soy braise) - we both loved our dishes. From all the restaurants we tried while in Kauai, Naisla's is at the top of our list to recommend to friends visiting the island and for a return visit ourselves. Thank you Stephanie and chef for a great evening.

Absolutely the best dinner of my life. Everything was thoughtfully prepared and executed. All of the flavors worked together beautifully. Mitch is a fantastic chef and host and the restaurant is a gem
