Fodor's Expert Review Red Water Cafe
$$$$
Waimea
Eclectic
Chef David Abraham serves upscale café fare with a twist and a side of aloha. Although it opens fairly early (at 2 pm Tuesday–Friday, noon on Saturday), there's only a single, all-day menu, and this place is busy, so reserve ahead. Sushi is an option; the Fuji roll is prepared tempura style, and sashimi is served with organic greens. This café is popular among locals and is a nice spot for the whole family—Abraham's young daughter developed the kids' menu.
