I went there to get food. An employee behind the counter came out looked at me and asked the person behind me inline that how she can be helped. Then the second employee behind the counter came again looked at me and ignored me and called out another person behind me. They were so rude, unfriendly. So I left Please don't go there if you want a minimum of a decent service. read more

The food was so delicious! You're greeted with a warm smile when you first walk in and I appreciated the variety of choices. Restaurant is a no fuss, nothing fancy inside but decent and clean! Definitely recommend stopping by here if you're in Kauai! We brought some of the chicharon and peanuts home. Our parents loved it! The bico was so good too. read more

Home cooked style, old fashioned filipino food. They are extremely popular with take out because of thier reputation and how fresh the food is. My family has ordered huge amounts for catering and has another order coming up in the next few weeks. If you ask anyone on the island where to get good Filipino food, I bet a hundred bucks they'll say Mama Lucy's!!! read more

Service was fast. Caring and friendly staff that always had a smile and always happy.

If you're craving for a very homemade taste, this is it guys! Brought me back when my Mama used to cook for us in the Philippines. They even use sautéed pork on their balatong not the chicharon kine. Will come back again definitely read more

Came here yesterday for lunch. I didn't realize that so many places in Lihue closed early for lunch, around 2pm. We tried two other places in Lihue which were closed so we were really happy that we stumbled across this place. Located in a small strip of businesses, this place has free parking directly in front. This place is a casual, somewhat fast food Filipino establishment because all the food is already prepared. You have 3 options: 1 choice, 2 choice, or 3 choice plate. I got the two plate options which came with two scoops of rice. I ordered the pork adobo and fried chicken. The pork adobo was tasty and the fried chicken was just okay. Pros: -free parking -fast service -generous portions -chili water sauce in the table -they were open! -seating options inside Cons: -didn't see any restrooms inside read more

The first time of Philippines food. The blood pork was very ONO,you definitely should try it! The name is very unfamilier but tastes like a stew. read more

Tried it once on our second day in Kauai. Authentic-tasting filipino food....not to mention that its really good. Staff are nice and friendly. read more

We asked our tour boat captain for suggestions for local restaurants and this was one of the places he suggested. We like Filipino food a lot and decided to try it, they were closed Sat and Sun, (not sure if that was bcoz of the thanksgiving weekend or if they are always closed Sat and Sun), we made it here on Monday. We got one 2 option plate with Pork Adobo, and another pork dish, and a 1 option plate with Chicken Adobo. The chicken adobo was the best of the 3 items we had, but we enjoyed them all. We also got Banana Lumpia and another dessert(fried dough balls), the lumpia was amazing. They were both fresh and warm when we got them, so good. I would recommend this place if you are looking for Filipino food or just a break from all the Hawaiian food available elsewhere. read more

Yummy Filipino food! I would go back again and get different dishes just to try them all!

Mama Lucy use to be my favorite stop for Filipino food.. I try to go and buy their food whenever I'm in Kauai.. so, on my birthday, I ask my sister to order some food from them because I just love their food.. we spent over $600 worth of offs, unfortunately, my favorite pork and peas was spoiled before we start serving the food.. when we opened the food so that we can start serving them, we smelled a bad odor.. spoiled smell and it had some bubbles.. we have decided to remove it from the table so no one gets sick.. I believe it's from the cold peas that was mixed with the hot food.. if you ever plan to order from this restaurant.. just be aware some of your food might be spoiled and check before serving them.. and let them know right away if your food is spoiled.. read more

I'm going to have to give Mama Lucy's the title of best Filipino food on Kauai. I'm a regular here and they have consistently been the tastiest and most authentic Filipino food option in my opinion. It's right off the highway, directly across Kauai Community College at the entrance to Puhi Industrial. The food is all pre made take out or dine in plate lunch style. There is zero wait time for your food aside from standing in line to choose your order. The kitchen is always fully staffed with friendly Filipina ladies. They have there regular dishes like soups, stews, adobos, veggies and things that you'd come to recognize and expect from Filipino food. They also always bring out kitchen specials that are freshly made during their busy hours. I've seen fried fish, fresh longanisa sausage, fern shoot salad and a lot of other fresh specials I can't recall at the moment on display fresh from the kitchen. Prices are reasonable and the value for what you pay is always great. I usually can't finish my plate in one sitting. They have epic catering too, I can't forget to mention that! They offer whole roasted pig (lechon).The ultimate Filipino Gluttony! If you know, you know. read more

The two places we will always go to when we visit Kauai are the Tip Top Cafe for breakfast and Mama Lucy's Kitchen for lunch. Mama Lucy's did not disappoint when we were there in April, 2023. It was already moderately busy at 10:00 AM on Saturday morning. We got two three-item orders, which was plenty for the four of us. (Two adults and two children.) You cannot go wrong with any of the dishes they have ready to choose from, but my favorite is still the "blood meat". Good food at a good price. Quick, convenient, casual, and from friendly people. We will be back, hopefully soon. read more

Celebrating my bday here on the Island. Stayed in Lihue. Found this most amazing Filipino restaurant a few minutes away from us. The food was spectacular. My bf had the Kare Kare and adobo which he thought was great tasting. I had the papaitan and the pig's feet. Soooo yummy. Had to try the turon yassss so good. Saving the best for last. Had Halo Halo. Was pretty much Yummylicious read more

Back for the $13 three item plate today. Ugh what a steal, I love this place. Everything was what I had hoped for and more, just like last time. Fiancé had skewers and turon and says they're the best he's ever had. So happy to have found a usual (inexpensive AND delicious) spot for us! read more

Please don't tell my cardiologist how much I like Mama Lucy's, because at this point I'm eating an alarming amount of pork adobo. Seriously, I'm genuinely concerned for my A1C. But that pork adobo is just so darn good. And from a value proposition, it's crazy. As someone who doesn't cook and eats far too much takeout, mama Lucy's is an insane value for money. In Kauai I've grown alarmingly comfortable with $15 being the price floor for any sort of lunch. But at mama Lucy's you can snag a 1 choice plate for $10. Bear in mind you can't get a Burger King combo for less than $70 here. But that pork adobo cooked in the nectar of the gods is divine. Nice big fatty pieces infusing each bite with flavor and the perfect peppercorn ratio. All while being nice and tender. Shoutout to their staff for putting some "gravy" on the rice. Yes, I aware it's just grease filled with peppercorns and pork bits, but golly does it kick up the flavor. 10/10 would return, but please do not tell my cardiologist. read more

It was a good meal I got a 3 item One was chicken it was very good The other was pork adobo it was good in all it was a good meal at a good value read more

Great prices, very friendly service, fast, and delicious. I would definitely come back here again.

It felt good to get a piece of home in Kauai. Me and my friends have been eating all this great Hawaiian food but we wanted to grab some Filipino food. My friend recommended us to come here and we had a nice time. The food here is mediocre. I did like their pork menudo which was tasty and pretty hardy. I was disappointed in their pork sisig; it was bland, dry, stale, and pale looking. Their Toron was bland and wasn't crispy anymore. My favorite part was their ube ice cream! We had a good time sharing 3 large scoops. I did enjoy their service. They are friendly and kind! read more

Of the 7 days I was in Kauai, I visited this place 4 times! Food is great and the portions are generous at reasonable price. I kept coming back for their papaitan, banana lumpia, and kaskaron. Other entrees are as authentic as you can get given you're in Hawaii. On our last day, we packed pancit, fried chicken, mussubis, lumpia, and kaskaron for our flight back home. Needless to say, everyone around us were salavating. Will definitely come back here on the next visit. Friendly staff. Great to see this restaurant thrive with positive reviews. Don't miss out on this place on your next visit! Maraming salamat po! read more

First time trying this place and was unfamiliar with most of the dishes so I ordered a little of everything. Order at the counter and pick up when ready. It was delicious and would have visited again if we had stayed in the area longer. read more

We loved this place!!!! Every time we're in Kauai, we stop here! We've loved everything we tried, Chicken Adobo, Pork and Peas, the fried chicken is amazing!!! and of course, we love the Pancit!!! read more

First off, I'm Flip and rarely like eating at Filipino restaurants because nothing beats home cooked. My wife is Kampampangan, and they're known for their cooking, so I know good food. My dad is Ilocano and he is also a great cook. When we tried Mama Lucy's food, I was floored and the kids enjoyed it just as much. This was one of the restaurants we actually went back to during our stay on Kauai. Thank you Mama Lucy for showing me great Filipino food isn't always cooked at home. P.S.(porgot something). The halo halo is delicious!! read more

This is our favorite Filipino food restaurant. We come here often for takeout. The pancit noodles are amazing and the banana lumpia is soooo good. read more

So tasty we didn't even get to take a picture of the food. If you're hungry and in Lihue area, this is the spot to go to. Right next to the mall and bakery. We were planning on getting malasadas but it was too late for that. Ended up here and glad we did. It was a great price, delicious food, fast service! Can't go Wrong for lunch/dinner! Definitely will be returning when we head back to Kauai read more

The best Filipino food in Kauai! Great staff too. Their halo halo is wonderful! It's Ilocano style! Yeah!

This place is my comfort food spot on the island! Mama Lucy's offers a variety of different dishes that are delicious. I'd personally recommend getting some pork and peas and a plate with fried chicken and some glass noodles. read more

My go to spot when I come home! Always has the best home made filipino food & the service is great if i could give 10 stars I would!

Such a great and Wonderful meal my wife and I had We live all the way in the West Side Of Kaua'i and drove to Lihue just to eat here before we did our shopping. The food was delicious and the atmosphere and service was excellent. If you are ever in Lihue or on the island come on down to Mama Lucy's right across Kaua'i Community College And directly across Shells gas station next to the Bakery. Great food and delicious island flavors. The best part is they give you great portions and a wonderful price! read more

Take out for now. food good, tasty pansit, pork guisantes, pork adobo and best if all it's home cooked style. ONO.

I absolutely LOVE Filipino. This place NEVER disappoints me. My go-to favorites the Bangus soup, pinakbet, pancit, pumpkin, chicken adobo. Usually I will order a bunch of ala carte and make rice at home to enjoy. I try to cook Filipino food at home, but it's just not the same for me. read more
