    a painting of a village in the background
    Keish I.

    Just started staying out on the West side (I personally love Wainae), wanted something different, this is one of the best dishes I have had this time around and oh so fresh! I ordered the cucumber salad (medium heat), chicken larb, and the shrimp/pork summer rolls; it tasted as expected onolicious! The owners and staff were so polite and helpful when I asked certain questions. I will be here at least once a week until I leave the island... nice meals for work. It's a local shop, no glitz, no glam but very nice owners and superb food!

    Locally owned little shops in the Waianae mall. Here you can find prepped food, snacks, fresh fruits and veggies and a few shelf items. The are fresh and delicious, bought some greens here for my squash soup and I could tell by the end of the stem just how freshly picked they were. You can also find fresh mango on coconut sticky rice. Delicious!!!

    Cold Noodle Chicken Salad
    Sheldon Y.

    I did a phone order for the cold noodle chicken salad. By the time I got there it was ready to go! The veggies were nice and fresh and the sauce complimented everything well. They also sell fresh produce and participate with the farmer's market. I didn't get a drink today but my coworkers say that they're very good.

    Sandwich
    Angela C.

    Friendly staff, fresh vegetable and fruits, freshly made Laotian and Thailand food. Sweet sticky rice and homemade chili sauce are all the great reasons. To visit here. The Bahn-mi Sandwich was made to order. It was salty sweet and sour, with pickled vegetable, Pate sausage. I got a lot of vegetable to go. I heat up the banana sticky rice in the Oven the next day, and it was so fragrant & sweet. Delicious!

    AMAZING! Always great to have more food options at work! And healthy food options as well! Daily specials, summer rolls, salads, drinks, sweet temptations all to be found here! A little farmers market inside as well where I found my Thanksgiving veggies! No long lines for me! Friendly service, great food and my afternoon sweet crave satisfied with Thai coffee with toasted coconut ice cream! Cause we all scream for ice cream bonus? It's in my Thai coffee! =) stop by grab something g to eat and drink you won't be disappointed!

    Brown sugar boba with foam

    After reading previous reviews about this new lil boba spot I had to drop in while at the mall for a Longs run, who can say no to boba and Laotian food. I got the Brown Sugar boba, fresh and still warm taro and banana mochi rice along with some veggies from their veggie stand. Next time I'm going to try the food menu items. Love this place I mean I go in for a boba drink and walk out with my vegetables for the week. Not to mention all reasonably priced. Service was great, super friendly, very informative and fast. And yes since this COVID19 pandemic more people are on EBT so I had to ask if they're accepting EBT for their farmers market side because that would draw more people in the door. Trust me word would spread so fast. But she said not at this time tho she is trying and hopes the business gets approved. My visit was about 4 weeks ago. Nywayz if you haven't tried this cute gem what you waiting for. P.S. no forget we all know mango is seasonal so dont get turned off when you see the out of mango sign

    The ladies that work there are super friendly and the food is always good I love their boba drinks and sandwiches. All my favorite are there at a cheaper price than regular grocery stores.

    Lao Beef Salad
    Jaynie K.

    So happy and excited to have stumbled across this lovely spot!!! Absolutely delicious summer rolls freshly made to order, best I have had! The rice paper is perfectly thin, tender and stuffed full of refreshing crunchy veggies. My favorite is the combo, shrimp and lightly seasoned ground pork, I crave it constantly. The Lao Beef Salad is the crown jewel of the menu, chock full of fresh tasty veggies, topped with thin sliced beef and a bonkers-delicious sauce that is so perfectly savory and flavorful! My mouth is watering just thinking about it! The iced tea drinks are balanced, fruity, refreshing. The basil seeds are a pleasant little textural delight! Please please go to this place!!!

    Pork shrimp combo summer roll
    Ahna K.

    This was on my list to visit while staying in Waianae after reading the great reviews. We had the shrimp & pork summer rolls, sticky rice with taro wrapped in banana leaves, blue papillon flower tea, sorrel flower tea & Thai coffee. The teas were so good & refreshing... and tasted fresh & healthy too - not overly sweet. Both food items were excellent! The owner was so nice, and gave us a free sticky rice. We came in at a busy time and weren't expecting to wait as long as we did (about 20 minutes), but didn't mind as it only meant that the food & drinks are freshly made. Do it give it a try!

    Shrimp summer roll w/ peanut sauce
    Nicole S.

    I've been here a few times and everything has been great! Fresh produce: I love the options and prices! They always have a nice variety, but I have been there when there was limited options. So if your looking for something particular I would call. Potatoes, apple bananas, cilantro, avocado, tomotes, green beans, green peppers, and more. Drinks: my favorite is the pineapple tea. The large is a lot so it's good to share or leftovers. It is sweet but I like that! And the diced pineapple is amazing! The brown sugar with boba very sweet! But so good! Again the bigger size is a lot for me to finish. Food: I love the summer rolls and the peanut sauce is the best I've had! The sandwich was good, fresh topping and bread. It took me two tries for a sandwich because they ran out of bread. As I mentioned, if you have your mind set on something give them a call. Overall, it doesn't seem you can go wrong here! Great options and fresh food! Check them out on insta for hours and updates.

    Tried the red sticky rice and we loved it!
    Charmaine C.

    Saw this place and ventured in and wow I love it. They had vegetables and some fruit. But I got the purple drink because of my blood pressure and my bf got the popular pineapple! Fresh, organic and we'll made drinks and even they're food items as well. All the ladies was so helpful when I had questions about the tea's!

From smoothies to brunch to a genuinely healthy lunch, I always leave feeling amazing. The food feels clean, thoughtful, and grounding in the best way.

The mac nut pesto was soooo goood and creamy, all the veggies in it was tasty and sautéed perfectly. This veggie soup was hearty, flavorful and just so yummy lol. The tumeric pits was buttery and crisp in the outside yet airy soft on the inside, the tumeric flavor wasnt strong - it was the perfect amount of tumeric flavor. It was the first time i tried goat cheese. It wasn't too bad! It had a tang to it but not bad! I also tried some of their salad (not pictured) but even that was fresh and loaded with healthy greens, i loved the dressing they typically use but i enjoyed the dressing that came with it. Overall, check this place if you want to try something new in Waianae!

    I strongly recommend that people think twice before doing business with Kapila Gardens. Our…read moreexperience was extremely disappointing and, frankly, disrespectful. We arrived early in the morning, not realizing that the venue didn't open until 10am. Because it had been raining, the grass was wet, and when we drove in, it created some muddy tracks. Instead of handling the situation professionally, the owner immediately became hostile. We were met with insults about our intelligence and were spoken to with profanity. Rather than calmly explaining the situation or asking us to leave respectfully, we were told to "get the fuck out" of the property and asked, "who the tf do you think you are?" The entire interaction felt aggressive and completely uncalled for. Everyone makes simple mistakes, especially when information like opening hours isn't clearly known beforehand. But there's no excuse for treating potential clients with that level of disrespect. Based on this experience, I would not recommend this venue to anyone looking for a professional, welcoming place to host an important event like a wedding.

We pick up our bag from the Kapolei location which is really convenient for us considering we live in Ewa Beach. Rasika even brought a box of mangoes and offered us as many as we could eat (and we LOVE mangoes!) The bag included the mangoes, a bag of salad greens (probably 6 servings or so), a small amount of dill, a bunch of kale, some very potent YUMMY smelling flowers (but I'm not sure if they're edible?), a bunch of moringa and a few small carrots. The produce was all very fresh and tastes amazing. My only small complaint is that they don't give you a card with your bag's contents and their website just has a generic greens list with pictures. Luckily I was able to figure out the moringa thanks to their website, but I'm still not sure about the flowers so they may go to waste. I highly recommend this CSA. It's less expensive than the others on the island and the organic produce is hard to beat. FYI - they also have a Kailua pickup available.

During my visit there, I was most impressed at their work to empower the Waianae community by employing and training their young people. Most of the farmers there are under 30! They have student programs providing financial assistance to students on the coast while they work at the farm. They also have summer and intercession internships that get kids on the college track. I was so impressed with the leaders that I met there. They are doing great work that embodies strong cultural values.
