Every time my husband and I fly out from Seattle, we have to stop here immediately after landing. This is the ONLY place that has effective kava, let alone authentic Hawiian food. But the kava here really does deliver, unlike some kavas I have tried (they might taste like kava, but they don't work like kava). And I am obsessed with poi. I love poi. Sometimes I walk here just for that. Unless you go to some luau, I haven't found any other eatery that actually keeps poi on the menu. Anyway, if someone asks me if I have a favorite place to eat, I tell them Kanaka Kava. I have been to Paris. I have been to England.

03.17.3024 celebrated our St Patty's anniversary with the idea of eating traditional Hawaiian food. The hostess was very nice and knowledgeable. We ordered and love the Pupu with a side order of Jasmine rice with furikake and drinks of gingerade for me and kava for my hubby. The Pupu came in a beautiful dish and enough for two to share. The gentleman who delivered our food was great as he patiently explained each dish. The open outdoor eating area was wonderful. Will definitely be back to try other dishes.
The server was rude and seriously offended by any sarcasm due to the fact they were out of 3 or 4 sides … when they had just opened … no atmosphere … not worth dealing with people without a sense of humor …Too many other great places to eat and people to have a good time with mahalo
Great spot to chill and talk story. The kava is good and the environment is comfortable. Everyone here likes to talk story. Every time we come we find out new things and meet new people and see regulars return and say hi. Love this spot.

As the name suggests-this stuff is bitter but it made me feel nice after I drank it! As DD it was nice to have a special something for myself
Got the poke bowl and kava. Seemed like the bowl was pre-made, taken out of a fridge, and served. Kava was ok.
Very touristy, I don't think there's any difference in the potent and regular but it's decent for what it is.
It was nice to try something typically Hawaiian. Food could’ve been hotter (it was lukewarm)

Very good hawaiian kava experience. Kava was great, food even better! Highly recommend.
Probably my favorite meal. The Hawaiian Sweet Potatoes were wonderful and purple!
