A note about our cuisine...we call our cuisine "fresh island style," since, like the people of our island, we combine the foods of east and west, and create a unique new blend of these flavors. We make every effort to bring you the freshest foods available by supporting local farmers and families as they bring us their fresh fish, fruits and vegetables each day. We grow flowers and herbs in our own organic garden overlooking the sea. As we celebrate our seventeenth year, we say "mahalo" to you all and we genuinely hope you enjoy your bamboo taste of hawaii!

Similar to a key lime pie, but richer and more like a cheesecake. The crust is granola, coconut and madadamia nuts, and we're growing organic limes for this pie right here in town!

Bamboo Brulee

It's a different flavor every day but it will have a crispy caramelized top that you'll have to "break through" to find the creamy flavor!

Raspberry Infusion

Our special liqueur the fruity tangy sweetness is ummmmmmm...

White Chocolate Passion Fruit Cheesecake

Bamboo is the largest consumer of passion fruit, or "lilikoi," in the state of hawaii! This is one reason why: creamy white chocolate and lilikoi in an old fashioned shortbread cookie crust, then drizzled with lilikoi.

Belgian Chocolate Mousse Torte

Chocolate lovers alert! This is it. Dark, rich, melt in your mouth, don't want to share it, chocolate mousse, so thick it's a torte because we couldn't get it in a bowl!

Homemade Ice Cream and Sorbet

Different flavors each day, and we can top it with chocolate or lilikoi for a sundae...
