I was really sadden to learn that Tiano closed down. This was the third or fourth restuarant to close at that location. I'm going to miss their delicious Filipino food and good service.

very sad to learn that Tiano's owners closed down their restaurant after nearly 2 years, and returned to Oahu. The food was really Good! I know they tried various ways to keep this business open and unfortunately it did not work out favorably. I will miss Tiano's and its owners, who are really nice people. Best of luck to you... More

Got hooked on the Kaluha pig omelet here. We got this log of an omelet stuffed with this melt-in-your-mouth pork and roasted potatoes on the side with a huge glass of POG. I couldn've swooned! Our server was full of the Aloha spirit and the place was clean and spacious. The Kona coffee kept us buzzing all morning. On anoher... More

My husband and I stopped here for dinner while waiting for our flight out of Kauai, and we were very welcomed by the staff and even chefs. I loved that you could try their breakfast and speciality syrups any time of the day - which I did! - and they were delicious. The menu was a mix of Filipino flavors... More

We decided to have an early dinner at 5:30 pm. We were immediately seated and the waitress was friendly and attentive. I ordered the Braise Boneless Short Ribs and my wife ordered the fried Bangus (Fish). My wife loved her fried fish. I was a bit disappointed with the boneless short ribs. The meat was basically, Korean style Ka Bi.... More

Stopped by Tiano's for breakfast with a coworker August 27th. It was a little busy but service was pretty prompt. We've eaten here when it was Oki's. It's still a hole in the wall but the quality is better. We tried the local fried rice breakfast and Tiano's kalua omlet. The portions were huge. By the time we finished, we... More

Been here a few times with the kids. Mostly because tip top was to busy. I had the meat lovers omelet. The portion is big but all you taste is grease. I had a side bacon too. The bacon you can tell had been put in a deep fryer. Tasteless and chewy. Really gross. Soda was flat tasting. Guava juice... More
