You just got off the plane and you're starving but you want something good, healthy and has Aloha spirit. The Greenery Cafe is the spot. 5 min from the airport, you will not be disappointed, in fact you'll be thrilled! As an added bonus stop here on your way home and pick up lunch and tell them you're headed to the airport and they'll wrap up your lunch in foil (bring a freezer bag to keep cold and eat on the plane and make your fellow passengers extremely jealous) read more

Awesome healthy food and very nice owners. Beautiful ambiance. Check it out for lunch or breakfast

Wish I could eat here every day because their "Soul Food" is literally food for my soul. Do you want to feed your soul? Seriously! Do you want to feed your soul through your taste buds and belly? I returned here for the heavenly mung bean soup, but I couldn't resist the fish fry with collard greens today for lunch. Scrumptious collard greens that pack all the nutrition your heart and soul will ever need! The greens are perfectly balanced with savory broth and sweet pickled onions. It came with a side of macaroni and cheese baked so perfectly the noodles dance on your teeth with the "al-dente-rhumba" (I just made up that food-dance!) And the cheese is so melty and buttery you'll want to jam more spoonfuls of their mac & cheese into your mouth before you've even chewed and swallowed the first bite! Please PLEASE go eat here. I can't eat it all myself, I'm so full I'll probably won't have to eat again for a week, but I want this restaurant to stay in business so I can come back here when I'm hungry again. I didn't even tell you about the side orders: 1. Aïoli which I used for the fried fish 2. Lemon vinaigrette which I drank as a beverage! I literally drank the vinaigrette dressing because it's so freaking delicious. 3. Cornbread yum! Homestyle ambience, outdoor seating. read more

The owner here is really sweet and kind. My husband and I are back in Kauai after 2 years and brought my brother here. We like how fresh the food is here. Clean and fresh eating. We got a kalad salad, avocado wrap, and avocado cheese wrap. I would recommend checking this place out if you like healthy and tasty food. Because they make things fresh, it does take some time. I would recommend coming here if you are not in a rush to get to your next activity! This place is close to Costco, actually on the way to Costco from LIH Airport. Can make a pitstop here before your Costco trip. read more

We were delighted to find this healthy, charming café, thanks to yelp, after getting off the plane. Tasty organically & locally grown soul, food delicious fresh fish, and chicken dishes. Maybe other meats but I don't eat those items. The cozy alfresco dining area is behind a private home, a.k.a. restaurant. Family owned business. They're doing a great job and it was delicious. I had seared at a very reasonable price. That was delicious with wonderful collard greens and kale salad with cornbread. I grew up on southern food & I was thrilled to find healthy Presentations. Highly recommend. is in deep back area of a house. read more

Love, love love The Greenery, food and people! The Salmon Croquet wrap is my all time go-to, however I do have to switch it up once in awhile...wish they were open every day! read more

Little treasure spot located in Lihue, on Akahi st. The Greenery cafe is located in the back of a house. The front of the house is a counseling office. So make sure to walk in the back. Out door seating available with limited parking. 2 car parking on the left side of the building. Don't block the entrance. A variety of Vegan/vegetarian, and healthy options. They're a Small business so expect to wait. However, I would recommend calling in your order ahead of time! I love their Mung bean soup, ahi wrap, and mango smoothie read more

We stopped here after landing in Kauai for lunch. My wife is a vegetarian and there were plenty of options for her on the menu. She got the beet salad and I got the avocado cheese sandwich. Both were very good. Talking with the owner Dale was a treat while waiting for our order. Would absolutely return. read more

Four of us recently had lunch here, and loved it! Staff very night and food delicious...but bring your patience. Lovely home/backyard setting. read more

Delicious food, great service, will definitely be back. Had the avocado wrap, it was delicious, light, and healthy.

Great and friendly service. A peaceful relaxing atmosphere to sit and enjoy a healthy but filling lunch.

So unbelievably fresh. And feels good to support a local business and their awesome staff! read more

This was a great stop on our way to another Kauai adventure! Food was fresh and healthy! We did have a bit of of a wait but to be fair there was only two of them working, they made it all fresh and there must have been about 8 of us and a call in order all at once! Worth the wait! We had the Avacado cheese sandwiches read more

Such tasty food and the most accommodating service. My kids wanted chicken nuggets that were not on the menu, the owner heard them and made them some fried in coconut oil. Very delicious. read more

A backyard soul food cafe with healthy vegan options. Made with love and care! You can taste it. Fresh local ingredients too. So happy I finally tried the mung bean coconut soup. It was so nourishing. Service was kind, quick, & delightful. Simple ambiance with no frills but plenty of shade. read more

Excellent fresh local lunch place! Mahi fish plate was delish and plentiful- came with vegan purple potato salad, kale salad, and black eyed peas. I think they were understaffed bc they were out of a few things and seemed a little stressed, but the food was with the wait! read more

Very fresh and satisfying lunch after a long plane ride. The service was friendly, but the chairs aren't that comfortable to linger in.

A great casual place for low-key meal of good fresh natural food. We stopped here for lunch while shopping in Lihue. The Cafe is behind a house -- in a small 2d unit. You order at a small window in an enclosed area and then wait for the food at tables in the back yard (where we also ate our food.) The menu had something for each of us. I enjoyed my curry chicken sandwich so much that I ordered the turkey wrap for my next day's "on the go" lunch. The person who took my order/prepared the wrap put the sauces in small containers so that the wrap wouldn't be soggy the next day. read more

This is such an interesting find. It's behind a woman's house. In the back house in the restaurant. There is no inside seating, the tables are in the yard. My husband and I both had wraps. He had the Ahi, I had the chicken. We both thought it was delicious. Keep in mind, you are on Island time and everything is fresh and not rushed. We got there at 1150am, there was one guy ahead of use. As we were leaving there were about twelve people ordering. She gets busy. We most certainly recommend it read more

My husband and I were in search of something to take on our flight back to California to eat because airline food can be questionable at times and expensive for what you get. Thanks to yelp, I found this little treasure that exceeded all my expectations. It's an adorable outdoor cafe situated behind a residential home. It appears to be run by two people, and the food was made from scratch and to order. I went the veggie route and got the avocado wrap (based on the positive reviews and pictures on yelp), while my husband got the BBQ chicken wrap. The food was absolutely delicious, and the perfect meal to take on our flight...not too heavy but super filling, fresh, and flavorful! Overall, one of the best food decisions we made while on Kauai. Will definitely visit again when back on the island. A must to visit especially if you are looking for a fresh, healthy, and delicious meal. read more

This place is a MUST! The food is filled with so much love and soul. AND it tastes amazing. So fresh. I came twice and wish I could come again! This is my forever go to! And the people who work there are so sweet!!!!! Go!!!! read more

Great stop for vegetarian and a flexible omnivore. It's much more like going to a local house than a formal place. It was great to decompress here on the grass after a long flight. The food tasted good and was great fuel for a long day of touring. This place has a great vibe. read more

My 3 year old and I shared a kale smoothie and a curry chicken wrap. Both were super tasty and fresh! Hubby had the salmon wrap. Everything was delicious and very fresh, which we desperately needed after a few days of very heavy meals. Limited outdoor seating. Very casual but we were comfy even in the rain. Friendly service. Highly recommend! read more

Amazing food!!! Good service and beautiful location. Absolute hidden gem with mostly organic foods. Their avocado wrap was one of the best tasty wraps I've ever had. I loved their ginger tea, fresh and very helpful for my hangover cure. Vegan and vegetarian options were a delight. The man taking the order was beyond friendly and inviting, the lovely lady helping out was very kind. read more

Great service , great vegetarian options , food is so good! Ambiance is the reason for 4 stars

Friendly and lovely service. Ambience: sitting outside was pure pleasure. Wait time: 30 minutes. My black bean wrap served without black beans. Wrapping was loose and fell apart. Filled only with lettuce, hummus, and grains. Their lentil soup was burning hot when served (fresh off the stove). Warning. On top of it, the soup was very bland. It simply lacked spices. My companion liked his green smoothie. I tasted it and it was really delicious. Go there but don't look for it. read more

This place is a treasure. To get to the location, google and you will find it. The restaurant has you order, and sooo FRESH. It was a nice spot to get some light but filling food. You are able to get fresh juice with your meal. Service was great, and it is for sure a favorite among the locals. Need a place with delicious fresh food and something different than fish tacos and other foods for tourists?? This is your place! read more

The food was fantastic. Very helpful with our dietary need too. One of our family members is gluten-free with a dairy allergy. It is in a neighborhood so keep you eye out for their signage. read more

The perfect place to come to when you want to get away from the fried Hawaiian food. Wife went for the Rosemary Chicken Wrap, and I went with the Hummus Wrap. I wish we took some photos because they looked amazing, but we literally couldn't put it down. The hummus was unreal. The veggies were fresh and crunchy. The wrap itself felt light. And the chicken was marinated and cooked to perfection. Juicy and tender. It was a pretty good sized portion too. An easy recommendation if you're staying on Kauai for a week or two...or if you're staying on the island for a day or two. We'll be back...and maybe with some pics to post read more

We highly recommend The Greenery Cafe. We had the avocado and cheese sandwich and the chicken wrap. Had a delicious mango smoothie with banana, ginger, and turmeric. All were delicious. Service was a little slow, but well worth the wait. Charming garden atmosphere and long "group table" to sit at. Sweet people and good food. We'd go again in a minute! read more

We went here for lunch and ordered fish tacos and fish sandwich. We loved both and both were very tasty and would defiantly order again especially the fish sandwich. read more

We were getting hungry when we were around the area. Per Yelp's review, we decided trying Greenery Café. We were so glad we did because everything we ordered was excellent from their drink, soup, and dishes. We'll definitely come back. read more

This place was not too bad however the pluses did not outweigh the minuses in my opinion. The Greenery is located in an old tiny house behind another old tiny house. It's kinda hard to find if you're not from Kauai. The parking is also very limited so good luck finding a "stall" (you park in the front yard) The reason we checked it out was because it was a "healthy" option however the ahi wrap came with potato chips as its side. I dunno ... to me, it kinda defeated the purpose of checking out a "healthy" eating establishment when chips are your only option as a side. The wrap itself was a good size and was actually tasty BUT it took us almost 30 minutes for us to get our order which consisted of my ahi wrap and my GF's plain old salad. Weird because it seemed like there were a few people working the kitchen but it took a lot longer than expected. A bit stressful because we weren't expecting to wait so long especially since we had a flight back to Oahu and were already a little pressed for time. As for my GF's salad, it was supposed to be a kale salad however they ran out of kale. So they substituted "organic lettuce" according to the worker. From what I tasted and what my GF relayed to me, the salad was a huge disappointment. Dressing had no taste, no kale, and if it weren't for the fruit thrown in, a prewrapped salad from 7-Eleven would've been better. The thing that actually bothered me was that instead of putting up a sign stating that they were out of kale, they kept explaining to almost everyone after us that they were out of kale, how they were substituting "organic lettuce", blah, blah. In case you were wondering, it's a really small place so we were sitting across from the window where you order. (We were waiting about 30 minutes for an ahi wrap/salad remember) So ... all in all ... food was ok, staff was pleasant enough but the rest was meh. There is quite a bit of room for improvement. 3 STARS read more
