Ally's Cocina in Kilauea, Hawaii. Five of of us agreed that, hands down, this was one of our top dining experiences in Kauai - better than many of the restaurants in terms of price/quality. We tried chicken, shrimp, pork, and veg. arepas and they were all fresh and simply delicious. We also loved that this was at the Kilauea community center which is amid a lovely botanical garden. And after the arepas, we got some of the yummy and refreshing Hawaiian made popsicles at the separate coffee bar.
