Everything we’ve tried was delicious and fresh.

Stopped by Simply Natural at the recommendation of another local restaurant owner...we were looking for box lunches for a picnic. Let me start by saying Everyone on the island has been AMAZING and we have been having the honeymoon of a lifetime!! My husband and I stepped in as the owner was taking an order from another couple. We got in line waiting our turn while we read over the menu. Without a greeting the owner looks around the couple giving their order and asked us if our clearly marked service dog was a service dog. Politely my husband responded "yes" and we continued looking at the menu. A few seconds later the owner looks around the couple ordering again to try and inspect our service dogs vest. Why ask if you are going to look?!? At that point I could tell we were not welcomed in her restaurant but thought, be patient she has probably not encountered many service animals. Unfortunately, over the next few seconds the nasty looks continued until finally she comments to the other four patrons in the restaurant, "it might be a service dog but he stinks like flea powder, doesn't he?" Attempting to get the other patrons to agree with her rude comment as she literally scrunches her nose to visibly show she is disgusted with his odor. The two sitting down shake their heads in disagreement with her comment but the gentleman directly in front of her shockingly comments, "I have a cold so I can't smell." At this point I had enough and my husband and I left. I called her a an unpleasant word which I regret but how dare her discriminate against my husband treating him like a second rate citizen. My husband faithfully served his county for 11years deploying multiple times to the Middle East to defend and protect our freedoms. He is now medically retired and is accompanied by his loyal service dog. We are from Colorado, we don't have fleas in Colorado and he doesn't wear "flea powder!" He is better groomed and behaved then most grown adults or so that is what everyone tells us where ever we go. On the flight over my husband service dog say under my feet and it wasn't until 30 minutes into our flight that the person sharing the row with us even knew we had our service dog on the flight. He rode there on an 8 he non-stop flight and didn't move once. We have NEVER had a single complaint. The sad thing is the owners only problem with us seemed to be that we were clearly military. What a shame....I would encourage you NOT to support this local business.

it took an hour for our food to come out and when it did it was cold . Never again. The older lady was rude as well.

Ah, sweetness. Simply natural was a nice little "talk story" restaurant with a simple, reasonable and delicious selection for me and my partner along with a cozy, homey feeling. This is not a plastic or cookie cutter spot, its a place to enjoy. I want to go back, see you next trip. ALOHA

Unwilling to make a sandwich on the menu without slices of cheese. If you are a vegetarian or vegan, skip this place and head up a block to the Sea Dandelion Vegetarian restaurant.
