Our philosophy here is to keep it real. We believe in transparency, sharing ideas, and dreaming big, without forgetting that the little things count.

Buy Local
We strive to use local products and buy from local farmers and fishermen. See our local farms and products page for more info and links!

All edible food waste is picked up by a local pig farmer nightly

Vegetable Oil Recycling
Spent vegetable oil is picked up to be recycled into bio-fuel

Gardening
Our herb garden, created by staff members, provides specialty herbs and garnishes to the restaurant

Wine Cork Re-use
We collect wine corks and re-use them in potted plants. They are also available for staff and guests to pick up for use in various art or craft projects... contact us if you'd like some!

Battery & Fuel Reduction
We use rechargeable tea light candles to eliminate the use of fuel for table top lighting. All non-rechargeable batteries are recycled at the Kauai Resource Center.

E-Waste
Don't forget, Puhi Metals Recycling Center accepts residential & business e-waste Monday-Saturday!

Non-Plastic Takeout Containers & Paper Straws
No styrofoam!

Reduce Electricity
We use energy efficient light bulbs wherever possible, we turn off lights in areas not in use, we put our computers to sleep... sometimes it's the little things...
