First time here I hope to return. Everything was wonderful from the drinks to the apps to the mains and desert and great service. Steamer clams are a must. The meatball Wagu pasta really good and huge, others enjoyed their seafood entrées. No complaints at all just a great time.

Good! Dinner in house tonight and it was really nice! Much improved from our last several meals which had me absolutely shaking my head at the inconsistency and poor food. New ownership? Or new attitude!? The food is plentiful, and very well executed. Our table had the special stuffed artichoke, the salmon salad special with lilikoi dressing (my dish), a prime rib sandwich, a hamburger and fries, and a spaghetti and meatball dish. No complaints! The salmon on my salad was cooked perfectly, and the salad was colorful and gorgeous to look at. I didn't care for the dressing, too sweet for me, but overall it was a real nice dinner for a hot Summer evening. I'm excited to find Kula Bistro has turned a new leaf! Looking forward to returning to our popular neighborhood eatery again real soon!

My 17 year old daughter and I stumbled across this amazing place when looking for some place for a late lunch while driving down from Haleakala. We went in blind: She'd found it online while I drove. I knew we'd be enjoying the meal as I walked in and saw other customers' panini: They obviously had used really fresh ingredients and looked as though they were cooked to perfection. The food was amazing. I had a Reuben sandwich that was massive. Great corned beef, generous sauerkraut, and cooked so the cheese just melted. My daughter went with toasted cheese and really appreciated the high-quality cheddar used in the sandwich. (She's really picky about flavors, and will spot the cheap plastic-like "cheese food products" some places use. The Kula Bistro went for high quality cheese.) We were both so full after lunch that we are pretty much skipping dinner. You could easily split a plate between two people and both be satisfied. We were too full for dessert, but it's worth mentioning their dessert case looked really amazing. If not looking for a meal, this place would be worth it just to stop in for a sweet treat. (Though the size of the treats made me think they could also be a meal substitute....) The food was great, but if it's possible I'd say the service was even better. Our waiter was friendly, advised us on the menu well, and was generally very welcoming and kind, as though we really mattered. The hostess/busser was really quick to refill water if we'd drunk a bit. I can't say I've ever had better service anywhere. The restaurant itself was clean and had really nice decor. All in all, I'm amazed this gem is tucked so far out of the way in Kula. Maybe that's there secret: They keep other costs down by being in Kula and invest the savings in great staff and food.

In the mood for pasta, ordered their Chicken Parmesan and rate it a 9 Grill Ahi with purple mash potato and salad rate 8 Known for its large portions, the chicken parm didn't disappoint and took home one-third. Ahi wasn't overcooked which would have been sent back otherwise. Great waiter. I recall on one occasion about 3 years ago, I had a large piece of Monchong and it was flavorless. Didn't see it on the menu which may be good for unsuspecting guests. Otherwise, have always been satisfied at Kula Bistro and recommend it to friends and tourists.

Kula Bistro is truly a hidden gem on the island. The crab cake panini was absolutely delicious... I almost had to order a second one! This was one of the best crab cakes I've ever had, so much flavor and an amazing crispy outside. To make it even better they make their own homemade focaccia which was fluffy, chewy and seasoned beautifully. Even the french fries at Kula were top tier. Their dessert selection deserves much love as well with various homemade pastries and an ice cream case where all the flavors looked just as good as the last. It's a very comfortable restaurant with plenty of seats and outstanding service. Our server was so friendly I almost wanted to ask him to join our meal! If you want a beautiful drive up country followed by a stellar meal please find your way to Kula Bistro!

Absolutely amazing! Love the food and love the people. Scenery was beautiful! Staff so kind and helpful with suggestions of places to visit. And very fair prices!! Highly recommend!

A nice place to find when you looking for food in the mountain. Their desserts were worth the drive. We tried the artichoke, prime rib sandwich on Rye bread, and the shrimp scampi. There's inside and outside dining.

We stopped at this quaint little resto before starting our jam-packed afternoon! It's a good thing we did because it gave us the fuel we needed! I loved the country feel this place had. Our friendly server made us feel so welcomed, and it was comforting to know she has been working there for quite some time! Good places have great workers! I ordered the Reuben sandwich with fries, which was huge but most of all, super yummy! I was too full to even order dessert, which was so unlike me, but I did walk over and take a look at all the freshly made desserts. My sister did get their last Guava Panna Cotta, which she said was refreshingly delicious! All in all, we had a wonderful meal here! Aloha & mahalo till next time...

Came here for lunch to celebrate a birthday. Oh what fun we had. Enjoyed our meals. I love the lobster Mac & Cheese. Always been my favorite for years! Love the artichoke too... but a bit messy to eat... The salads are always fresh. The desserts are the best! They don't take reservations so come early, or come at an odd hour

This is a great stop while in Kula. We stopped in right around lunch time and it was clear the local folks love this place as well. It was pretty crowded on a weekday but they had adequate seating. There was also outside seating as well. I ordered the panini which was very tasty and came with an abundance of French fries. The YS ordered the tuna which was market price but it was fresh caught so it was definitely worth it. He had a great salad to go with. It was definitely great to try out a place that the locals clearly love and get to experience a great eatery to boot. All in all I would definitely drop back by here again.
