    Arancino at the Kahala is a great choice for residents and visitors alike. Try any one of their pastas for great flavors and textures. We have had most of them and never been disappointed. The caprese is lovely, made with fresh local tomatoes and quality mozarella. Calmari appetizer is excellent, only lightly battered. The wine list can be expensive but their are good choices in several price ranges. All this and the lovely atmosphere of the Kahala Hotel as well.
