Frommer's Review

This place is known for its healthful fare and made-with-care wraps. It serves fresh soups, giant salads, and homemade sandwiches and burgers, but the wraps are most popular -- herb-garlic flatbread filled with local organic baby greens and vine-ripened organic tomatoes, cheese, and various fillings. The Kamehameha Wrap features kalua pork, two different cheeses, and a Maui onion dressing. My favorite is the Mexican veggie wrap: greens, tomatoes, avocado, roasted peppers, cheese, and refried beans. There are a few seats outdoors next to a striking mural.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
