Okay, so it's not actually pronounced like the pho in "fee fi Pho fum"
However Pho Kapaa is delish! I first discovered Pho Kapaa about two and a half years ago and I've been a frequent fan every since. Hands down the best Pho I've had any where...and I've had Pho in San Francisco, many places throughout Asia, and many more places in Hawaii. With our heavy Asian influence there's no shortage of great Asian food on Kauai, but you won't find a better place for Pho!
When it's rainy up in Princeville or if I've been showing properties all day in Poipu Pho Kapaa is the perfect place to meet up with friends and enjoy a big bowl of Pho.
Pho with rare beef (#9) is my favorite! I also love the green papaya salad and the sandwiches. As far as Kauai prices for good food this is about a low cost as you can go. The average dish is between $9-$11.
There's no ocean view (located in the Safeway shopping center in Kapaa), but you'll be enchanted by the owner Thomas Jefferson. He will come out of the kitchen every once in a while and talk to all the locals (most of whom he knows by name) for a minute before he disappears back in to the kitchen to cook up another delicious batch of Pho!
