Best Vegan Restaurants in Kawaihae

We dined at Halani last night for Valentine’s Day and it was AMAZING. Our server was Ali(?) she’s y’all, blonde and has tattoos and she was INCREDIBLE. The bread balloon with the dip trio was out of this world, my kebabs were cooked perfectly and my husband’s flank wagyu steak was 10/10. I’ve been to this restaurant for the all you can eat breakfast brunch during the day but at night is a totally different vibe and just stunning. Everyone was kind and helpful from the valet to the servers and busters.

This restaurant was amazing and the sunset was glorious. We had excellent service and the food was delicious as well. We would definitely go back. It is expensive and it is not large portions but the ambience and live music and good service is worth the expense.

We ending up coming back to this restaurant during our day! It was fabulous. The crispy rice with Aji tuna, the shrimp with macadamia nuts, the pork belly fried rice were all spectacular. The service was excellent and the view sitting out on the back deck was nothing short of as spectacular.

Another great dinner at Hawaii Calls. Beautiful setting watching sunset tonight.

Meal was outstanding from start to finish! The tomato appetizer was unbelievably good. Ahi as usual was outstanding and the Duo and my scallops and shrimp wow! The show stopper was the mushroom soufflé - so so good and bread used with the sauce crazy yummy. Apologize I don’t remember our servers name but her enthusiasm and spot on meal suggestions was so perfect. We’ve eaten at Merrimans for years, but every time we are there in Waimea it’s perfect t in every way!
