Kauai Pasta

Despite its unassuming and rather utilitarian name, this is a cult classic on Kauai. They do excellent work with their staples, from homemade ravioli to delectable crab cakes, coconut creme brulee and milk chocolate pots de creme. There are two locations: Kapa’a and Lihu’e. The Lihue location has a quaint street front atmosphere; the Kapa’a location is in a nondescript stripmall, but features the lounge, open until 1AM (late for Kauai’) with a separate menu. Specials rotate based on the season and availability of local produce, but have included wild boar ossobucco with roasted garlic and spinach risotto. Staff at both locations know the cuisine well and are often well-versed in wine pairings.
