    Shrimp Spring Roll
    Chelsea L.

    Great spot for a cold, windy day. The soup was good and full of flavor, and the food came out quickly. We arrived at 7:45 pm on a Sunday, they are open until 8:30 pm. We received our food before 8:00 pm which was nice as we were definitely hungry. The staff was friendly and helpful. There's also a good amount of dine-in seating available, which is nice since it's close and right in the heart of Kapaa town. My son had no complaints about his fried rice (which he order with no vegetables of course). And I really enjoyed the summer rolls and peanut sauce--came with 2 rolls, and it was fresh. My husband & daughter ordered the #10: Rare Steak Noodle Pho, which they savored & devoured every last bit. We do wish the soup portions were a little larger, especially because we really enjoyed our Pho. Overall this is our favorite Kauai Pho spot. Check it out, hope you like it too!

    A quaint little pho restaurant located in a strip mall with playing parking. The staff here are very friendly. The portion size is a bit small for the price. I ordered the Pho Combination. They do provide a generous portion of basil and bean sprouts though! Overall, a decent place to eat.

    Chicken Pho yummmm

    Had a serious craving for Pho with a sore throat on a rainy Kauai evening and I couldn't have been happier with our selection! My chicken Pho was so tasty and the broth was spot on. The staff were so nice and even brought our toddler a comp mango cake at the end of our meal. Highly recommend this cute spot!

    Bun Bo Hue

    While the service was good, the $25.99 Bun Bo Hue was not. It was bland and they already included the vegetables to make it look full. The meats were same as the combination pho except for the added oxtail. I have eaten many Bun Bo Hue in my life and this one was at the bottom. There might be a food safety issue as well. I am sitting in my car with the view of the kitchen. The server is using his unwashed ungloved hands to make the vegetables for the pho.

    I haven't been back since the new year. New prices. I tried a new dish and wasn't impressed - the fried rice. Their pho has always been good, but I haven't tried it in a few months.

    Stopped by Pho Kapaa and really enjoyed the pho. The broth was hot, flavorful, and came out super fast -- still steaming when it hit the table. Nothing better than a piping hot bowl of soup. Service was quick and efficient. I'd consider coming back next time I'm in the area.

    Pho w/ oxtail

    Kiddos were missing their noodle soups and Pho Kapaa is located close to our hotel. Arrived at around 7:30pm, and we got there right before a line started to form. Hubs ordered the Bun bo Hue which definitely had a kick. Mom ordered the oxtail pho and noted the broth was flavorful but the oxtail pieces were quite fatty and not a lot of meat. Kiddo ordered pho with the rare beef and ate it all up. I ordered the pho with duck - it was ok. Would've liked more duck slices and bamboo shoots. Note - 25% gratuity added for parties of 6 or more. This caught us a little off guard - 20% may be common, but 25%?!?

    It's the only pho place we found and it's really expensive. Taste is okay. I wish Kaua'i had good food it's very limited

    Kauai Juice Co. was such a fun stop during our trip! I ordered the Starburst (strawberry,…read morepineapple, orange), and it totally reminded me of Jamba Juice's Strawberry Surfrider -- one of my all-time favorites -- so I was instantly obsessed. It was super refreshing, flavorful, and perfect for the island vibes. They offer two sizes, and I went with the smaller one, which was honestly perfect. It comes in the cutest reusable glass bottle, and they let you return it (washed) for store credit -- such a great eco-friendly touch! But honestly, it's also such a cute souvenir that you might want to keep it. The shop itself also carries a variety of other items, so I'll definitely be coming back to explore more during our trip. The location is great too -- there's plenty of street parking and a nearby parking lot, and it's surrounded by other cute shops and foodie spots, making it a great place to walk around and explore. Overall, such a refreshing and aesthetic spot -- highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area!

    I am a BIG fan! I had been following them on IG prior to my arrival last July…read more I had a sublet for the month of July and the property manager offered to treat me. I chose Kauai Juice company and had my very first juice which to this day is one of my favorites. Since July, I've branched out to not only the juices, and juice shots, but also the tinctures. They've got a truly spectacular selection of supplements as well as salads, chocolate and honey. I also enjoy their merch. I bought a Kauai Juice racer back tank that I practically lived in the entire summer long! All of the juice baristas are super friendly and knowledgeable. I'm a regular at Kauai Juice and I've also branched out from the OG spot in Kapaa to the larger location in Kilauea. Highly recommend this place! They're awesome

    Total ripoff! If I…read morecould only give negative stars! Pepper beef that was tasteless and more gristle than beef. Cold rice (how do you even do that). Tasteless veggie soup. Tasteless veggie rolls cooked in very old oil. All this for $48!!! (Without drinks) hands down both the worst "Thai" food and the worst food truck experience I've ever had. Avoid like the plague.

    Wow very polarizing reviews here. We chanced upon this place on the way back from the Kalalau Trail…read morehike to our Poipu hotel at about 6pm on Thursday. We were the last customers since the lady literally closed up shop as soon as we finished eating by 6:30pm. I only got a Thai moco here, and got more stuff from the other Thai truck just in the next lot, so I suppose it is difficult to judge the entire menu based on one dish. However, I'll say it was probably the best (though not perfect) moco I had during this trip. The burger patties were crisp on the edges and had great umami, almost like a fried chicken which was unexpected. The rice was a lot, maybe too much, but cooked right. The eggs were a bit undercooked, whites still slightly raw, but I actually don't mind raw eggs (psh salmonella) so I didn't say anything. The gravy was good but a bit too chunky and thick, like too much corn starch or something. Service was ok. Had to order from the window right next to a swarm of flies as the trash can was nearby. Lots of open seating, but also lots of flies trying to beat me to my food. Menu very very extensive, not just Thai food, but also a lot of Asian classics. Overall, don't regret trying this as it satisfied my loco moco craving, but I probably wouldn't drive 45min out of my way to get it.
