Ordered three food items

Cold Water Scallops:
Warm Bacon Vinaigrette. Truffle Potato, Pickled Fresno Chili GF. – really cooked to perfection. Incredible crust on top. Paired with the potato, just a great bite. Little hint of spice from the chili.

I had the Surf and Turf: Truffle Potato Puree*. Mushroom Conserva. Toki Whiskey Red Onions. Compound Butter GF* with a butter poached lobster. – first order, my medium rare steak came out, no joke, probably medium well. In the center, perhaps well done on the sides. Our waitress came by and quickly realized and brought out a better steak and a whole new plate, appreciated her attention to the matter. The lobster was one of the best I’ve had. Just absolutely tender, melt in your mouth. Steak, potatos, onions and mushrooms were all pleasantly rich and delicious.

Girlfriend ordered the fresh Catch which was Mahi mahi. Cooked very well with an absolutely delicious sauce of lemon and capers. A real highlight of the meal

Dinner for one came to $116 (appetizer, pasta, and one drink).

The hamachi crudo was a complete miss — heavily over-marinated in soy sauce to the point where the flavor of the fish was lost.

The lobster pasta was fine. I do not recommend it, it’s far from matching the price.

The “bubble” drink was good.

My first visit was a much better experience than the second. The chicken main and a lettuce salad were strong dishes and are the ones I would actually recommend.

Overall, inconsistent quality for the price. Ordering carefully matters.

Hands down the best restaurant I’ve ever been to. Started off with the scallops and tuna carpaccio. Fantastic. Got the spicy margarita and the Sunny bubbles for drinks. For entree, my fiancé got the lobster fettuccine and I got the filet. We couldn’t stop talking about the meal after we left. They also offer a 4 course option that is $110 a person, but you each get an app, salad, entree, and dessert. If you’re hungry, it is a steal of a deal. I would recommend this place to anyone I know going to Kauai. Worth every penny and can’t say enough good things about it. Mike, our server, was also outstanding. I even thought about telling the chef how delicious it was.

First time dining at Naisla and it was worth the 40-minute trip from Poi’pu. Will definitely be back to try other dinner entrees and cocktails! Highly recommend! Shoutout to our server Mia who was great and helped us make our choices! We started with the steak bites appetizer which was melt in your mouth good! For the main course we tried the lobster linguini, soy braised short rib over risotto, and the Jidori chicken with purple sweet potato and carrots. We highly recommend each of these dishes as they were all delicious and flavorful as they looked on their website! We topped it off with the coffee cake dessert paired with the Molo’a martini both of which were excellent! Cool vibe all around! You won’t be disappointed but best to make a reservation as they were busy on a Monday!

Came here for my dad’s birthday celebration. Very empty at 5 so we didn’t actually need a reservation but filled up. Good food reviews from everyone, the scallop appetizer especially. I will say my miso carbonara was quite salty, since I was expecting more of a muted miso taste. It wasn’t totally my taste but still good, and those who want a rich miso taste would enjoy it. Very traditional carbonara sauce also.

Meal was absolutely delicious! We highly recommend the beef short ribs and lobster bisque. Both were amazing! Staff was super friendly and loved the atmosphere.

My partner and I really appreciate great food, service, and atmosphere. Naisla had it all. The tiramisu was incredible. The short rib had delicious flavors. The staff was kind and attentive.
We also really appreciate clean food and on Kauai many restaurant don’t offer that. We felt the food to be pretty clean and minimal ingredients. Thank you so much. See you soon

Naisla is my favorite restaurant on island! The quality and flavors of food are unbeatable. The bruschetta is a MUST and so is the braised short rib with risotto. The filet mignon and arancini are also fantastic. I’ve told all my friends about Naisla and can’t rave about it enough.

I dined at your restaurant on 12/5 with a 6:30 PM reservation. Upon arrival, the hostess appeared cold and unwelcoming, with no greeting or smile.

Fortunately, our waiter was very friendly and informative, and the food itself was fresh and delicious.

However, another blonde waitress who delivered our dishes was visibly rude; she placed the plates on our table without any acknowledgment or explanation and walked away.

I kindly ask that this be addressed with your team. Thank you.

Today was my last day after 10 days stayed at Wailua properties. We wish we could find the best restaurant that we really like in Kauai. And we found Naisla kitchen. We ordered the smashed cucumber, local lettuce, Ahi Catch, filet mignon, and lava cake. It was delicious more than we thought. The waiter is friendly & gave us a good advice!
