We stayed at Ko’a Kea for 8 days and ate breakfast at Red Salt every morning and we had dinner here a few times as well. The food did not disappoint once! Every single thing we ordered was delicious, the service was always so attentive and kind. They remembered us by name and always made us feel welcome. I can not recommend Red Salt enough. It is alittle pricey but you absolutely get what you pay for. The food is phenomenal and we were always so excited to eat there. Love love loved it!
