“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!“

“Worth the wait!!!! Thank you to the lovely host team who got us a seat at the bar every night, we visited four times during our week long vacation! Louie & Dylan were incredibly welcoming, every cocktail they made tasted like tropical paradise. You can tell that Chef Kenny pours so much love and care into the daily specials, highly recommend ordering all the pastas before they sell out! Our favorite meal on the entire island was the Ono crudo special with avocado, salsa matcha & pickled pineapple… wow, we will be thinking about this bite for years to come!
Do not skip dessert, it’s a must! Especially the lemon crumble ice cream. Thanks again to the whole team front & back for making my birthday trip feel so special, you made us feel like family & we can’t wait to visit again ❤️
Without a doubt it will be our first stop on our next kauai vacation!“

That was the plates. No bread basket to fill.We won't be back here again. Plus horribly expensive and we have dined all over our country.“

The outside seating with the view of the mountains was great for a picnic feeling. Wish the place had an air conditioned indoor seating though for the afternoon sun of lunch hours.“

“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.“

“I have been coming to Pat's Taqueria for over 10 years now, we make it a point to stop in every time. Highly convenient location at the Hanalei pier, its also a quick drive or walk down from Pine Trees, He'e street, or the pavilion if you choose to go there. Its a popular spot and the food truck is only so big so you have to wait and enjoy the surrounding views for a few moments, but that's not big deal as the anticipation of a fantastic taco makes it that much more delicious. I've had all of their tacos, you cant go wrong they are equally as phenomenal as the next. Any one that complains about price is nit picking because its 100% worth every penny.\n\nKeep on keeping on!“
