Leahi Health Kaua’i — Restaurant in Kauai

A very nice place serving very nice food by a very nice person!

We ate the poke bowl and it was delicious. The lady serving (who also owned the place) was super nice and helpful. She happily customized things to our preferences and server us promptly. The bowls looks small but they were heavy. We were only able to finish them because they were so delicious. We also ordered smoothie and it was once again great!

The food items are prepared for taste and health benefit. While it is difficult for me to comment on the health aspect, they were certainly tasty.

An interesting and to some extent pastoral aspect of the place was the preponderance of chickens. They came in all sizes and shapes - from a strutting rooster to a diffident hen. However, they did kind of shuffle over to us when they saw the food. I am guessing there are patrons that feed them, so they have begun to expect it.

The servers gave us a water bottle and when they came close we squirted them with a bit of it. They seemed to be well trained, because as soon as they saw the bottle they would scamper away. Typically they would come back after 5-10 minutes to be squirted again. I want to add that at no point did we feel threatened by them. Just a bit of fun!

Great place. Highly...

Absolutely love this place and the owners. This is a family just providing some of the best veggie/vegan options in the area.

Being family owned means customer patience as there is only one person making the food as fast as they can. One of the owners said that eating the pita bread which is used to make the tacos was as if you were biting into a cloud. I chuckled inside, being Greek and having eaten my fair share of pita, I am happy to report he was absolutely right. The pita bread was amazing as were the combination of ingredients for the delicious Spinach Avocado Tacos!

I chased it with a Green Monsta smoothie that was the perfect filler for the rest of the day. There is parking in the back of the establishment and some seats to enjoy this incredible food right in front of the place. They do have a new website up and going and I encourage people to support this...

Just the perfect fare for depleted travelers! We had a satisfying, delicious lunch. We look for vegan when possible, so were delighted by Leahi's extensive menu, picking Farmer Tacos and Baja Bowl plus a Deep Purple smoothie. All were excellent. Being a stand-style operation, the "atmosphere" was typical with a couple picnic tables by the parking area, but we weren't looking for fine dining and laid back hit the mark. Shy helped us navigate menu questions and even surprised us with a sample of a new smoothie flavor she was developing (P.B. & J inspired)....so yummy! On a short vacation, we are hoping to squeeze in another meal here before we leave.

UPDATE - We stopped back in, trying all new items. Another great meal, concluding you probably can't go wrong no matter what you order here. And more great hospitality...
