Review of Kiawe Roots

My husband is celiac and every time we travel, we try to only go to restaurants that cater to gluten free and no contamination. We came to Kiawe roots after reading reviews and I must say this place did not disappoint. We ordered gluten free fried chicken, chicken/beef bowl, and the wasabi crusted salmon. My husband ended up getting lunch from the next day also. He really wanted to try the huli huli chicken but that’s only for dinner. They have their a separate fryer for their fried chicken and use tamarind/gf soy sauce. I highly recommend this place!
