Exclusive, Regional Wines and Premium Drinks
Cactus puts a very large focus on the wines of Argentina, Chile, Peru and some small estates in Spain and Mexico. Traditional, and some untraditional, Sangrias are featured, including a signature frozen Sangria.
Premium Rums, Tequilas and Piscos (sort of a South American Grappa) are carefully paired with fresh island herbs and tropical fruits, alongside non-alcohol selections like Horchata, Jaritos sodas, and fresh juices.
Cactus is open seven days a week for lunch and dinner. We're located in the Davis Building at 767 Kailua Road, next door to Mu'u Mu'u Heaven.
