Excellent fresh salad from their farm and a very tasty macadamia chicken pasta. Finish the evening with their gelato! Excellent friendly service. I have been here many times and always enjoy coming. It is a real hidden treasure.

Lick your plate clean worthy food. I am gluten free and pretty much everything was gluten free or they were able to accommodate to my needs. The food is all fresh and leaves you feeling satisfied and good. This hidden gem is worth multiple visits during a stay on Oahu.

Amazing food. The people working here are so friendly and accommodating for vegan / vegetarian options. Farm to table so you know its fresh! Definitely try the famous cheesecake!!

Very friendly staff. I really enjoyed the variety of creative dishes. The veteran options were great. I loved that we could bring our dog while we are in the outdoors. We went at night so we got to appreciate the beautiful outdoor seating. Surprisingly, there were no bugs bothering us and the string lights were perfect: strong enough so you can see clearly, but soft enough for enjoyable mood lighting. They play music inside pretty loud so that it can be heard from outside. I look forward to going back! Its a bit away from the main road and if you drive out at night, the drive may feel a little sketchy. Once you get there, its definitely worth it.

An absolutely wonderful experience all the way around. Staying in this incredibly peaceful place was ideal for us. It’s a very simple, humble, no frills as far as the nightly stay but they offer a fantastic experience of starry skies, working farm housing interactive, welcoming, and muddied barefooted farmers with smiles and conversations. Chickens clucking their way around the pen with offerings of early morning wake up calls. Open land of overgrown grasses and patches of gardens growing veggies outskirts the mountainous view. For those willing to forgo any extra comforts and take on a more relaxed (and while not, it may be for some, rugged) experience, this is a must! It’s a shared space, as it is a retreat house and expect to leave your shoes at the door as is Hawaii custom. The cafe doesn’t disappoint either. The chefs spread is abundant and beautiful sharing the farms own organic produce. It was the best food we tasted in the island and looked forward to the next meal.

Nice cafe with indoor and outdoor seating. Outdoors had lovely string lights and a small stage so they might have live music. We ate several vegetarian meals and all were very good. Very creative dishes. The gelato was phenomenal.

This is a good place to go for a family meal. The staff was extremely friendly and the food was good. They also went out of their way to hook us up with some local produce when we couldnt make the hours for the nearby farmers market.

Review №18

The food was great. It would have been wonderful if it had been seasoned more while cooking. The salad was bitter, maybe more carrots or some type of lettuce that was not so bitter. The dressing was amazing and the little gift shop was cute. We walked around the farm and every one was friendly.

Kahumana Organic Farm is an absolutely beautiful farm. Walking around the farm was interesting just seeing how everything works together in harmony of design and purpose. The food was so great. This farm to table restaurant places so much care into both taste and presentation. You would be missing out not to come out here at least once.

Came here for lunch and to walk around the farm. Its a no frills experience but the cafe is great and everyone is super friendly. The farm itself is pretty limited when youre not in an actual tour but they are a couple paths to follow and sheep and chickens to see.

This is THE place to grab lunch or dinner in West Oahu. The food is so fresh, and they are able to accommodate any dietary restriction. The staff are friendly and personable and the scenery is beautiful. My favorite place to eat on the island.

Most peaceful experience of my whole trip. The cafe was SUPERB FRESH AND ORGANIC! Best vegan dishes on the island! The staff friendly and helpful. Eating mangos straight off the tree was a true pleasure. Beautiful grounds views of the mountains and animals! Truly amazing experience thank you ladies!

I love the staff there. Always an interesting and friendly mix of people. This is a hidden gem for sure. Robert, the owner, is always warm and welcoming... Hes also quite a chef. The food tastes great even though its really healthy . Cant go wrong with any of the dishes. My favorites are the Mac nut pesto and the loco Moco when its available. Everything is farm fresh and tasty.

I am a frequent visitor to Oahu and I try to find new ways to appreciate the island and the community. Kahumana is a wonderful way to do both. My first visit to the farm I was with my family and some of my colleagues. We sat outside and enjoyed fresh food and a friendly community under the mango trees. Many of the diners late in the evening are workers and participants in the farming efforts. All were friendly and engaging. It happened that during the evening the planets were aligned to provide a spectacular show in the heavens as the Bethlehem Star was featured with the convergence of Jupiter and Venus. All in all a beautiful evening. I will bring others to experience this treasure.

Friend dragged me up. Food was unreal. Had the tofu stir fry. Lots of flavor. Could have done without the quinoa but it was nice with the stir fry. The cooler was refreshing. For dessert, we had the lilikoi cheesecake and brownie. Lilikoi shined.

Its a great idea and place to volunteer your time for a good cause. They also offer morning yoga classes and make organic meals. Gods place to bring the family and spend a few hours.

If your in the mood for some really delicious healthy food, then look no further. If you want a glass of wine or beer with this amazing meal then youll need to BYOB. 501(c)3s cant sell alcohol. But the staff is very nice and welcome people bringing their own drinks.

AMAZING! You couldnt get fresher food anywhere. Always get the daily special and a cooler, you will never regret it. But really everything on the menu is pure deliciousness. Afterwards, try some organic gellatto, then take a walk around the farm to walk it off.

Review №38

Took the farm tour and was mighty impressed with the sustainable organic farm practices and their mission of involving and employing the local community. We enjoyed feeding the chickens, observing food production activities, the variety of fruits and crops! Afterwards, both my friend and myself thoroughly enjoyed an awesome organic and wholesome lunch so much that we went for dinner the next day! Thanks for all of the staff that made us feel welcomed and participated in the knowledge transfer of sustainable farming practices. A definite must visit if one is on the leeward side of Oahu.

Food is great as its fresh from farm to table. Prices are a little high but thats the cost of farm to table.

Simply fantastic. At the time of writing this review my family has eaten 3 meals in the last 24 hours at this place. My wife informs me we will be returning again at opening today, she wants to try another type of gelato, at 1130 am. Magic is not often found on the much beaten path, but you can find jt here.

Disappointed!!!! Was one of the first families to get there at 6pm and was seated right away. Took an hour for waitress to take our orders. An hour later still no food! No one came over to our table to give updates nor was ever informed if they are short staff. Very bad customer service! We walked out of there after 8pm with no food served!!! Poor business operations. Never again.

Kahumana is truly a hidden gem on the west side. Robert and his crew up there make you feel like the part of the family while enjoying a truly farm to table meal.

This is a great place to go if youre looking for some healthy super fresh organic food! The service is a bit lacking but most of the help are farm hands first and servers/waiters second, so dont be too hard on them.
