It was a perfect lunch spot for our toddlers to run around while we ate in the garden. Then we got to enjoy the walking path through their jungle/yard. The owners were so nice and attentive too. Truly a special experience.

Although I'm not vegetarian, I found the food here flavorful. I enjoyed sitting outside under the parasol in their art garden. Also, there isa local art/craft store, and it's fun to visit while waiting for your food. There aren't many restaurants nearby the park, butthis is a great place to eat. Staffs were all friendly, and the service could be a bit slow, but you are in Hawaii, so relax andenjoy!
