My husband, best friend and I stopped in for brunch on Thursday morning and had a great time. The food was spot on, so good. There was only one server, also bartending, and she was killing it! She was quick and efficient and super nice. Love that the beef and everything else was local. There were a bunch of tables inside and a few outside on the perimeter of the restaurant. Everything was really clean, which is greatly appreciated! We will be back! read more

This restaurant is in the Coconut Marketplace. The marketplace is a really cute plaza with fun shops and other places to eat and grab dessert. Our server was awesome! She was super friendly, fast, and gave great recommendations on what to eat. I had the chili pepper chicken. It was crispy, juicy, and perfectly seasoned with some heat. My husband had a burger, which was just okay. It was a bit on the pricey side, but it was expected. read more

We went to the location inside of the 'Coconut Market', use the directions in the Yelp app, Apple Maps gave us the wrong directions. The location is newer, it's clean and well set up. Has a good amount of indoor and outdoor seating. The servers are super nice and patient and they bring out the food fast so it's nice and hot. Your water and coffee will be perpetually full. They have a pretty solid menu here although I only really looked for breakfast. The eggs are nice and fluffy, the Portuguese sausage and spam were delicious (how could they not be?) and the pancakes delicious, fluffy and thick (get the Lillikoi cream syrup, trust me) All in all, a great place to get breakfast in Kaapa. read more

Leong’s Road House - Grand Slam: 2 eggs, Portuguese sausage and three pancakes. - Comfort Food Near Me - Kapaʻa, Hawaii

We stumbled upon LEONG"S ROAD HOUSE after arriving at our Hotel on the Eastern shores of Kauai a little too early for check in. Needing to burn a little time, we decided to, "Holoholo" (Hawaiian word for, "doing a little exploring on foot to see what is what") . , . LEONG's is located just-adjacent to the our hotels location, so our Holoholo had barely begun when we took our first pit-stop. How lucky we were to have our foot-journey bring us here. LEONG's hits the trifecta: The food was fantastic, the service was gracious and welcoming, and the ambiance was just-about perfect for someone seeking a little rest and relaxation in a "chill" environment. A cooling tropical breeze kept us comfortable as we sat near a large window that allowed us to sip our beverages and watch the tourists, covered in oil stroll on by. Being that we were only, "sort-of hungry"--and not famished (*and, as I said, kinda just needing a place to burn some time), we opted to share the combo plate (Hawaiian food that included laulau, kalua pork, lomi salmon, and classic sides of rice, sweet potato, and mac salad. ) It was fantastic! The portion size was easily enough for both of us, and at $27, it was not cheap, but it didn't make me feel "gouged" either. And, best of all, we discovered a new thing that is part of the island-food traditions... Despite returning to the islands numerous times since leaving it as a kid, I had, prior to this trip, never really "tuned-into" the use of chili water (aka: "Da Kine, Peppah wadah"). A cousin of mine brought it (the use of chili water) up in conversation the other day when we were talking about favorite foods and how to enjoy them. I now am aware that Pepper water is pretty-much ubiquitous to the way locals dine in Hawaii--and since talking about it, now realize that most dining establishments have them as condiment options. (Duh!--*that's me, mocking myself for not paying attention all these years) And to think... all this time, I had never tried it before. So anyways, I asked our server if they had any, and she immediately brought over a bottle (see photo below). We splashed a little of it onto the meats that were put before us...(dramatic pause)... and discovered that this peppah water takes everything to a new level. It is the perfect accompaniment to the proteins we were sharing, and I pretty much couldn't get enough of it. We finished our shared meal, chit-chatted with our server for a bit, and then went on our way to see what other magical things the islands would reveal. Upon reflection about the food that we had at LEONG's, I would say that it was already going to be one of the better "mixed plates of Hawaiian food" that has ever crossed my lips... but that elixir of vinegar, peppers, salt, and water, that we splashed on, boosted it up to "maybe the best I ever had" status. read more

Came here for our last dinner at the island with cousins. I really wanted to try their pork chops but they didn't have it that evening, so I settled for their fried chicken. Boy o' boy, I was pleasantly surprised with their chicken that didn't look appealing at all, but after that one bite I was hooked!!! It was boneless, crunchy, tender, juicy and tasty! I've never had this great tasting chicken before. It was a wonderful evening at the patio with live entertainment and the service is good. I am so bummed we didn't try this place out sooner. I would have kept coming back for more... read more

Everything we had was amazing. The fish sandwich tasted great and we loved the thin fries. The chicken stir fry was also spot on. They make amazing "nambasu" pickles. Just the right crispness! Service was warm and attentive. Great attention to detail. We ate all over the island and this was our favorite meal. read more

The restaurant only had enough customers to fill a few tables, and we now understand why: the staff didn't even acknowledge our presence for the first 15 minutes, and it took another 15 minutes to get seated in a more-or-less empty restaurant. We finally got to order where the waiter was really nice in letting us know right away that they were out of desserts and romaine lettuce (so no house or Caesar salad). After ordering, the waiter came back after another 20-minutes to apologetically let us know that they were also out of ahi tuna. By then, we were all too hungry and too tired to care, so we just voided that part of the order; however, it would've been much better if the kitchen staff kept the wait staff informed of their inventory so they would've known much earlier. The food was actually pretty good (except their mac salad, which is not even close compared to other nearby restaurants), and the building was spacious, visually pleasing, and clean / neat. Unfortunately, it took another 35-minutes after the waiter cleared the plates off of our table to get the check for us to pay and finally leave. They just don't interact with their customers enough to turnover tables. Another couple that came in behind us stated that the restaurant has had issues recently with the staff greeting customers at entry to the point many potential customers just leave rather than staying to eat. We almost did the same. So, except for their mac salad, it seems that the food is good enough where they'd likely have a more consistent customer base if they worked on staffing and/or process efficiency. read more

What we liked was Good size portions, comforting food, lastly convenient for shopping

Originally I was pretty excited to get the Poke bowl. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get it due to onions being in every version they have and I'm allergic. I decided to get the fish and chips ($22.00) which to be very honest were bland and soggy. The drink was $14 and was a short glass with the majority of it being ice. So far this restraunt has easily been my least favorite on the island. Our server was in a hurry so she came off very rude. The whole experience was a pretty big disappointment. The Pro to this whole place was the location and the atmosphere. read more

Surface was fast and friendly waiters. I haven't tried all their food on their LAULAU and that's definitely homemade by them unfortunately, it was better two years ago when I came to the island I went there in September of this year and something was not right, but still homemade all the other LAULAU places that have it do not make their own, but I do believe it's all commercially done read more

Great food, beautiful view and good service! Stopped in here our first night on the island with zero expectations because we were tired and just needed some dinner. What a pleasant surprise! My catch of the day was so fresh and tasty & my husbands rack of lamb was perfectly done. Highly recommend read more

My bbq burger was amazing ! When they say it's a half pound burger they mean it. This was our first time here but so glad that we decided to give it a try. It came with fries that were crispy and flavorful ! My Husband had Kahlúa nachos. He absolutely loved it. The service was exceptional. The waitress was friendly. She made sure the table was clean before we sat down. We didn't have to ask for extra napkins. That is always appreciated. They have indoor and outdoor seating. They serve breakfast lunch and dinner. We will definitely be back on our next trip to Kauai. read more

Food is pretty good. Burgers are always a hit for our family. Kalbi ribs are also a favorite. Portions are decent for the price- especially for dining out in Hawaii. But don't expect to leave paying under a $$$ if you're dining as a family of 4 or more. Happy hour is where it's at if you make it between 3-5 they have a pretty good pupu menu and happy hour drinks are $5 a pop. Service is hit or miss unless you make it out on a weeknight when Jade is working-she's a total sweetheart and always takes care. All in all, it's a decent local restaurant especially for the East side where the night time dining options are limited. read more

While in Kauai we had breakfast here three times, overall great breakfast. They have mochi pancakes that are so sweet and gluten free!! Our server Katie was super attentive and friendly. About a mile from the Hilton Garden Inn worth the walk and much better than the hotel buffet. read more

Our food was really tasty. Mahi fish and chips and a Kalbi plate. Very nice place with friendly servers. read more

Leong’s Road House - Comfort Food Near Me - Kapaʻa, Hawaii

Despite the bartender/server having to cover the entire place, she was well organized and pleasant. My wife said her coconut shrimp was the best she'd ever eaten. My fish and chips lacked the crispy coating I prefer. Note to Owner, not having malt vinegar for fish and chips borders on the illegal. read more

My mom ordered the hawaiian plate and it was almost inedible. My ribs were okay but the mac salad i paid extra for was terrible. Spent almost $90 for terrible food. Literally go anywhere else. read more

Every available source says this restaurant is open until 9pm online, but it was very closed, dark, and deserted when we arrived before 7pm, a stark contrast to the busy shopping center around it. No signs posted to explain the contradiction. We called the second location nearby thinking maybe they had just failed to update the online info... the employee who answered the phone number for the second address said they were open. When we got there, it was a dark, small shack with no lights on. Also closed! Oh well. We tried. There's a sore lack of communication or something going on here. read more

Breakfast at Leong's Road House was perfect! Service was so friendly and full of aloha. Food was exactly what we wanted... terrific omelets and the best crispy bacon! Covered Outside seating was very relaxing with Hawaiian music playing in the background. We will be back read more

Everything was just fine. Not great, not bad. Had the Loco Moco which in Hawaii has a high bar. It was just Okay. Would probably not return as there are so many other options out there. read more

Candice was our server and she was amazing! We had 11 people and she was very nice and patient with our group. This was our first stop while we were waiting for our rooms and we'll definitely be back before we leave. On top of the service the food and drinks were great!! read more

Located in the Coconut Marketplace and is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner most days. Had the standard 2 egg breakfast with Portuguese sausage there before renting a bike to ride the beach path. Solid dish - reasonable price - good service. Had choice of indoor and patio seating, Surfing on the big screen was enjoyable to watch. Would return. read more

The service was awesome. Kiara (sp?) was very sweet and a lovely service. The food was delicious and fresh tasting. Recommend!

Food and drink was 4/10. Prob applebees level. Loco moco, such a simple dish might have been the worst i have had. Previously Frozen puck of a meat patty was way overcooked and dry. Barely any gravy, and smallish portion. Half the size of any lunch plate spot. read more

I had a veggie omelette, it was full of mushrooms, spinach, tomatoes and cheese. The potatoes served with the omelette were crispy and served hot. My breakfast was delicious. The servicer was attentive and friendly. They offered both outside and inside seating, had televisions offering sports. I had a nice meal. read more

My burger was so overcooked I could not eat it. I let 2 servers know. One told me she would let rhe cooks know. The other handed us the bill. Neither offered to have it remade or take it off the bill. Waiting for the owner to make it right... read more

My family and I just spent a week in Kauai and Leong's Roadhouse was a wonderful find. The food was delicious and well priced. The Poke and the fish tacos were especially good. The staff was super friendly and remembered us when we came back a second time later in the week. They also had live music which added to the experience. Will definitely be going back next time we are on the Island. read more
