“The staff was friendly and nice. We got Thai beef basil, coconut chicken, spring rolls, and mango sticky rice. Thai beef basil was pretty spicy and good but lacked acid flavor. Coconut chicken was good but as we eat more, the flavor felt a bit bland. Overall the entrees was pretty good“

“Scenic view of Hanapepe side.“

“super good food! Very courteous staff. Highly recommend.“

“Great vegan food. No frills and outside dining“

“Tidepools is a very romantic open air bungalow style restaurant sitting over various Koi ponds aglow with fire from the tikis. Our server was very nice, knowledgeable and available. We enjoyed the vegetable summer roll and lamb chops as appetizers. Both were very tasty and the lamb chops more than ample as a meal if you ordered sides. We were so pleased with our center cut and filet steak as our entree. The center cut sirloin was smothered in a rum compound butter and seasoned to perfection. The ambiance made for a wonderful island experience. I would highly recommend dining here, then walking the beautiful grounds. Tidepools is great for family and dinner with friends. We had a wonderful time.“

“My wife and I had a wonderful dining experience here. We both ordered delicious dishes—my pork belly with noodles and my wife’s salmon. The portions were generous, and the food was absolutely delicious. If you’re in the area, I highly recommend giving this place a try.“

“I told my wife we were going to a food truck that I had read about for lunch. She was a little skeptical, but said sure, let’s go. So glad we did. The food was so delicious! And the portion size was so generous. When you are on the south shore of Kauai, please don’t miss this gem.“

“This food truck is the best place for poké on Kauai! Charming relaxed atmosphere, DELICIOUS food at affordable prices, all next to an open building with great shops. Corn hole game for the kiddos set up near the covered seating area. All 8 in our group agreed that this was the place to eat! Visited 2-3 times during our stay. Highly recommend!“

“We ordered the samosa chaat, palak paneer, garlic naan, and lamb biryani. Service was efficient, fast, and friendly. We came on vacation, not expecting such good quality Indian food but the taste was above expected - excellent! A must visit.“

“After a long morning at Waimea State Park, I picked Da Booze Shop because the name made me laugh. Well the jokes on me because the food, service, and atmosphere were stellar! I have always loved eating in Mom and Pop places because they always have the best food. I got the Mahi Katsu and had enough leftover for a snack. If you are traveling with kids this is a great place to eat. You can eat across the street at the park and let the kids play and expend some energy.“

“Great place to stop for a quick breakfast in Poipu. Love this place.“

“Absolutely amazing. This is a must when de ending from waimea canyon state park. Unbelievably delicious and filling.“

“Make sure to come visit this place if you love filipino food it is the best“

“Best Loco Moco, we stop here every time we visit the island.“

“Food at La Spezia is outstanding! This was the first time dining at La Spezia (party of three), and we couldn't have been more pleased. Service was prompt, friendly, and attentive. The food was the most delicious any of of us has ever had. I ordered the gnocchi, my friend ordered the short rib ravioli (and couldn't stop raving about it!), and my husband devoured the wagyu hanger steak (he said it was amazing!). The wine we drank was terrific as well (a red zinfandel)! Even though all of us were full, we ordered dessert the salted caramel panna cotta, which was outstanding! All in all a meal we will never forget! We highly recommend La Spezia for a very enjoyable night, to anyone looking for a great restaurant in Koloa.“

“The variety in menu, courteous service fairly reasonable Prices.“

“one of the best meals of my life and I ate here twice!! traveled all over the world so that says alot“

“Local spot for great plate lunches. Got the #11 and #5. #11 with Korean Fried Chicken, Teriyaki Steak and Fried Saimin and Rice and #5 chicken katsu, hamburger steak, pulled pork, mac salad and rice. Both were crazy tasty and portions are massive. Small little counter ordering place but the food is bomb.“

“We had fish( mahi-mahi) 🌮 tacos It was so tasty. Stuff were funny and nice . Excellent !!!“

“Very good breakfast and the friendliest servers like Javere!“

“This place is so much fun for adults and kids. The slide, pool, and activity area is so much fun and they welcome you with open arms. The food and drinks are amazing but…our service was why we kept coming back. Justyna has the best vibe and is so attentive. We recommend this place to everyone that comes to the Poipou area. ?“

“This place was highly recommended by my patient that was part of a Facebook Group that posted about this place a lot and they were featured on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. It was good and the service was fantastic, but not so good that we made a second stop on our trip. Their service was quick too, so it's a good stop if you only have a short time to eat! Their menu includes: Truffle Burger, Veggie Burger, Chicken Katsu Sandwich, Kenji Burger (teriyaki, ponzu aioli, caramelized onions, cheddar cheese, tomato & arugula), Misoyaki Fish Sandwich, Salads, Sushi Burritos & Bowls (loco moco, chicken katsu, misoyaki fish, and poke). There are 2 locations on the island“

“Wonderful staff! Our waitress and others we spoke with were very friendly and genuinely cared about ensuring everyone enjoyed dinner and had a good time.“

“I’m a big fan of taro chips and they pretty much make them fresh here. We ended up complimenting this with fresh poke we had made from a fishing charter trip with Go Fish Kauai. I got a few bags so plan on snacking on these at the beach. $7 a bag but worth it given the quality and freshness. Support local“

“The best tarp chip I’ve ever had.,, period!Hard to find entrance to this stack and one wonder if he is even open, but well worth the trip.$7 fit a small bag of freshly fried tarp chips. Still hot and salty. Unlike the mass produced flavorless ones co packer makes.“

“An Unforgettable Thai Dining Experience!

Craving Thai absolutely blew me away! From the moment we walked towards the food truck, the atmosphere was cozy and quaint. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, offering great recommendations without being pushy.

We started with the crispy spring rolls and it had fresh flavors and perfectly balanced spices. For the main course, I had the pad see ew and crispy chicken, and it was hands down one of the best experiences I've ever tasted with it being rich, tasty, and just the right level of heat.
Portions were generous, and the prices were more than reasonable for the quality.

Craving Thai has easily become my new go to spot for Thai food. Highly recommend!“

“Portion sizes! These guys kill it. Buddy behind the bar is phenomenal and the vibes of the place is a perfect combo of Italian restaurant vibes with relaxed Hawaii atmosphere. Reasonably priced for the island too.

Food times are ever so slightly longer but hey, it’s worth it! They’re a busy place!

We will be coming back when we return to Kauai.“

“A cute little taco stand advertising “authentic Mexican food” located just off the main highway in Hanapepe (although I think there are other locations elsewhere on the island).

On a Monday at 11:45 we were the only customers and each ordered two tacos, fish and carnitas. You order at the window and they call you when the food is ready. There are a handful of picnic tables scattered around the taco shack or get the food to go.

The fish taco was good, but the pork with big chunks of tender pork was fantastic-highly recommended. They were pretty quick and reasonably priced with tacos around $7 each.“

“It was an impromptu stop and surprisingly good. We tried 3 different items and all excellent“

“Amazing service, our waitress was so courteous, and she explained everything! And the food was delicious! I would Highly recommend!! Beautiful ocean front views“

“The best place I’ve had food in Kauai. The service was amazing, I didn’t have to ask for a refill one time. The waiter/waitress were very attentive. The food was delicious and wasn’t expensive and bland like most things on the island. Definitely a good spot to eat!“

“Dominos pizza Kauai is the best! The food is always great and the service is always beyond exceptional. My daughter just had her first ever party with friends! She had it at Dominos. She loves the food and the team there! She and her friends had a blast! They got a VIP tour and some Dominos swag! Thank you sooooo much to the team at our Lihue Dominos We love you guys! ❤️❤️❤️❤️😎😎“

“Beautiful views of the garden and delicious food.“

“Love the food here. You gotta be there really early for the full spread of rolls, I love the spicy crab, portuguese sausage, or flying saucers. They’re prepared food is great too, I love the kim chee fried rice omelet or the brisket bomb. Been coming here for years, owners are really kind hardworking people. My favorite breakfast spot in lihue!“

“Long stay at the Hyatt and look forward to breakfast each day here. What a creative, professional, diverse breakfast buffet! Too much to note here but there is NOTHING missing for breakfast or brunch options! The staff is so friendly and personable.“

“I ordered the blackened fish tacos and my husband ordered the AlPastor tacos. Both were incredible. We could really taste the pineapple in the Al Pastor. There are two sauces that he keeps outside and we added the red/spicy sauce on top and they gave the tacos a great kick! Food was made to order and very fresh!“

“Everything was delicious, I would love to try everything on the menu, I think it’s all equally good!! The noodles are amazing and so are the people! I couldn’t decide between two of the dishes so they let us have a small sample of the plate I didn’t order (even though they were so busy!) so we could try it. Thank you!!“

“Went here our first day on the island for drinks and ended up getting dinner, too. The service was pretty slow, but the server was super friendly and attentive once she finally made it to the table. My wife had the mahi mahi tacos and I had the mahi sandwich and they were fantastic. We also had two drinks each, the last two were the lava flow (delicious) and mudslide (not bad, but not great). The views are gorgeous overlooking the ocean and the prices aren’t awful. For 4 cocktails and two entrees it was about $120 which is honestly one of the cheaper places near the beach.“

“Ahi tacos are amazing and big!“

“Well we tried it. I will say it was the least expensive meal we ate. But the burgers are McDonalds size. They were ok, good I guess, but nothing special. The onion rings were good, but we only got 2 with our order of Frings. I would say if you are craving a small, cheap burger and there's no line, it's worth it. Otherwise, you can probably find better.“

“Great food. Great service.“

“Came for happy hour! Food is simple but cooked well and tasty! 2 drink minimum if you come for happy hour. We got the tacos for taco Tuesday. Some teriyaki wings (breaded). Coconut shrimp and pork belly appetizer. Beers are served in frosty mugs! Definitely recommend stopping here for a casual dining experience. They also have a ton of tvs for any sporting event! Great views and the open air kept it at a great temperature inside.“
