Description
Exceptional free-standing restaurant building with parking in the heart of Kapaa. This trophy property benefits from direct exposure along Kuhio Highway, one of Kauai's main thoroughfares with nearby daily traffic counts exceeding 26,000 vehicles; it is also home to ‘Aina Kaua‘i, a chef-driven tasting menu restaurant and multi-year Hale ‘Aina Award winner for Best Restaurant Kauai (2023–2025), and an OpenTable Diners Choice recipient (2022–2025). The building was thoroughly and tastefully renovated in 2021 to include high-end finishes, a fully permitted commercial kitchen complete with hood, vent, fire suppression and grease trap, as well as a fenced, dedicated paved parking lot. The stand-alone layout allows for clear visibility, signage, and independent operation. Properties of this type are limited within the immediate area, where most commercial spaces are located within multi-tenant centers. The property is suitable for a range of retail or service uses and may appeal to an owner-user or investor seeking a presence in the bustling Kapa’a submarket. Restaurant business and FF&E can be made available for sale.
