FARIA
a Pasifika Portuguese Restaurant
COMING SOON
to the charming beach town of Kailua, Faria will bring the rich and vibrant flavors of Portugal to Hawaii’s shores. Our family-run restaurant is a celebration of culinary tradition, where authentic family Portuguese dishes meet the island’s fresh, local ingredients.
Faria
Heritage & Tradition
In the heart of Kailua, Faria is more than just a restaurant—it’s a living tribute to all our ancestors, those who were Portuguese immigrants who brought their rich culinary heritage to the Hawaiian Islands generations ago. Our family-run restaurant is rooted in a deep respect for tradition, blending the time-honored recipes of our ancestors with the vibrant flavors and ingredients of Hawaii.
Local
From the Azores to the Pacific
Faria is the result of a dream nurtured by our family for generations, beginning with our ancestors who journeyed from Portugal to Hawaii in search of new opportunities. They carried with them not only the hopes of a better life but also the cherished recipes that had been passed down through the centuries. Today, we continue this legacy by offering a menu that honors their hard work, resilience, and love of good food.
Caldeirada à Pescadora
A hearty Fisherman’s Stew of cod, clams, mussels, lobster, shrimp, scallops and squid in a savory tomato broth. Served with papa secos — a crusty country bread.
Alcatra con Purê De Batata
A rich Azorean pot roast, slow cooked until fork tender. Served with Portuguese style garlic smashed potatoes.
Bacalhau à Brás
Perhaps one of the most recognized Portuguese dishes. Our version is oven-baked layers of salt cod, onions, potatoes, olives and hard boiled eggs, basted in Portuguese olive oil. Served with bolo do caco, a Madeiran-style flatbread made with sweet potatoes and griddled on a salt slab.
Pulvo Á Lagareiro
Seared octopus with oven roasted potatoes, linguica and garlic. Served with a side of pork and beans and gravy. A little bit traditional Portuguese, a little bit Hawai’i Pocho. #PochoPride
