Welcome to Kapa Hale!

Kapa Hale has a modern influence on Hawai'i Regional Cuisine. We promote local products and combine them with familiar ethnic influences that showcase a cuisine that can only be found in today's Hawai'i.

We can help to celebrate life's special events -- whether it's a large party or an intimate prix-fixe menu. We can accommodate different styles of events -- cocktail reception, sit-down family style menus, etc. Chef Keaka Lee was recently recognized as a James Beard semifinalist for Best Chef in the Northwest and Pacific. And finalist for the Vegetarian category for the local Hale 'Aina Awards by Honolulu Magazine.

We're located next to Olive Tree Cafe, outside of Kahala Mall. We have a small, private parking lot.

I always look forward to Kapa Hale's Noodle Bar. The duck ramen is the BEST. The lilikoi cheesecake ice cream was the perfect dessert to end the meal. Lilikoi and cream cheese notes came through deliciously with the graham cracker dusting adding the finishing touch to the cheesecake. Looking forward to dining at the next Noodle Bar event.

Made a reservation for inside and when I got there I was told they were busy and may not he able to accommodate my reservation. Food was a little salty and mustard seeds were over used in the dishes.

Food was very good, however the wait was over 45 minutes to receive our entree. The “bread” basket only was delivered after inquiring w/the server. A bit noisey from a large group talking & 2 couple of women behind us w/1 woman taking sooo loud & inconsiderate of other guests dining.

We were so disappointed with our experience at Kapa Hale. Based on the good reviews and the other outstanding restaurant experiences we had while staying in Kahala, we were not expecting a bad experience. Unfortunately, we found the following: - the service was extremely slow, we were not offered water or had drink orders taken until we had already been seated for 25 mins - the bathrooms were not clean and had an 'ick' factor - the server was slovenly: sweaty, careless with putting food down (spilled salad dressing all over the table and then carelessly cleaned it up) - the food did not meet expectations at all (it was salty, overly saucy or too much dressing, the taste of most dishes just was plain not good) - 1 out of 4 of us had stomach issues the next day - it was our most expensive meal while in Oahu and was the least enjoyable The place was packed so they must be doing something right, but we just didn't see it.
