WAIKOLOWA, HI
Hawaiian cuisine with an international influence; no specific gluten-free menu but most items could be made gluten-free; vegetarian friendly too; resort casual
Dining at Roy’s Hawaii in Waikolowa was a real treat. They offer a fascinating menu, and the food is prepared perfectly. The menu is extensive — there’s something to satisfy seafood lovers, meat-eaters and vegetarians, in addition to being very accommodating for gluten-free diners.
The staff, manager and kitchen were very aware of celiac and cross-contamination issues, and were there to please. Each dish was better than the last.
Dishes we tried among us: edamame (served instead of bread), surf & turf (filet mignon, shrimp in a butter wine sauce and haricot verts), grilled tofu steak (offered instead of meat or fish on any dish) and the BEST warm chocolate souffle ever!
