10 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Hanalei

“We had the cold brew float and it was the best coffee we have found on Kauai!!! We love it as much as our favorite Dutch Bros drink!! Had it 3 days while on Kauai!“

“Great place to try authentic Indian food! I ordered the coconut shrimp curry, and it was really delicious, nicely spiced and full of flavor. I got it medium, and honestly, it was still pretty spicy. I usually eat and enjoy spicy food, but this had some serious heat, so I probably wouldn’t recommend going “hot” unless you’re very confident.
The service and atmosphere were both on point. Even though it was busy, our order came out pretty quickly, which was impresive.
Highly recommend!“

“Hands down our favorite shave ice, full stop!
Service is always fantastic, flavor pours are full, the haupia covers everything and permeates through. The ice cream is always soft, and mixes with the flavors and ice for a creamy delicious finish with all flavors mixed perfectly. JoJo’s style (with mac nut) more than makes up for the loss of mac nut ice cream from the menu.
When we stay on the North Shore, we stop here at least once a day, sometimes more. When we stay on the South Shore, we still come up here for the best JoJo’s.“

“Every single flavor I tried was absolutely divine! I cannot wait for my next visit to Kaua'i so I can enjoy these masterworks of baking again!“

“Hands down the BEST I have ever had! You must go check it out!“

“Great breakfast stop in Hanalei. I had a fresh fruit/granola bowl with banana, strawberries, and blueberries, and it was bright, refreshing, and filling without being too heavy. Casual outdoor vibe, good coffee/breakfast energy, and an easy recommendation before a beach day or walking around town. Would absolutely come back.“

“Delicious poke. VERY expensive.

The poke here is outstanding. Very fresh and flavorful and their flavor choices are awesome. Love the toppings too. But the portion is incredibly small for the price so we probably will not return. There is poke just as good for more affordable at other places!

Outdoor only seating on a small patio but we didn’t have trouble finding a table.“

“Their authentic Japanese ramen bowls are perfectly seasoned and flavorful. We had the ramen with pork belly and they were delicious. They have lots of fun and yummy appetizers, our favorites were the bao buns and the brussel sprouts. The atmosphere is great and I highly recommend a reservation because the wait can be quite long.“

“The food is exactly what you expect from L&L. Solid barbecue, done well, and just as good as any other L&L you’ve been to. They do run a more limited, modified menu here, though.

That said, the location right in the center of Hanalei makes it worth the stop. Sitting there, hanging out, and just watching the flow of people through town is part of the experience.

If you’re specifically looking for the full L&L menu, you’d probably be better off heading back to Kapaa where there are a couple of locations. But if you’re in Hanalei and want good barbecue in the middle of one of the best little towns on the island, it’s a great place to grab a bite.“

“Excellent Chinese food, and some nice authentic dishes that are hard to find in the States. I had the sea bass and eggplant dishes. Best eggplant since I lived in Shanghai.“
