    We had a wonderful dinner at Naisla. The service was outstanding. The scallop appetizer was fantastic. The lobster linguini was perfectly done. Don’t miss it if you are near Kapa’a.

    The food was exceptional; fresh, creative and ample. The fresh catch was the best yellow tail presentation I’d ever had. Their Sunny Bubbles cocktail was delightful, citrus basil forward with just the right amount of vodka and a fun presentation. Service was spot on, timely and friendly. If I lived here this would be a place I would visit regularly.

    Amazing food and atmosphere! We love the scallops and the crispy chicken bao buns!!! But in all honesty everything we ordered was fabulous including the spicy margaritas. We will be back for sure.

    Im not sure how it’s possible, but Naisla just keeps getting better. Though we miss a thing or two that came off the menu, the new additions are fantastic. Great service, consistent, creative and delicious food!

    Everything from the cocktail to the appetizer, salad, entree and dessert were top notch, fairly priced and creative. It was not the standard fare offered by other restaurants and the place had a friendly, but laid back vibe.

    Exceptional food and exceptional service. Our waitress and her assistant/bus boy together provided the best service we have ever had at a restaurant. There are not a ton of items on the menu, but what is there is beyond special. We will always eat at this restaurant on all future trips to Kapaa.
