12 Best American Restaurants near Kapaa

“Best Loco Moco at Kauaii!!!“

“Went to hukilau for 37th wedding anniversary. Oct 15. Was dying for prime rib. Didn’t care about price I wanted Prime rib so so bad. All we get here on Kauai is choice. There is no fat in the meat no marbling and you can’t cut it with a fork. You have to slice every bite. That is choice. And if you’re good with that. Then the rib is great. It was cooked perfectly. But I wanted the prime rib. Prime has fat all thru it and so tender the meat falls apart. Little pieces of fat around the edges and you can see the marbling in the center. I actually asked the waitress what was on my plate (which I have never ever done before) and she said it was prime she even went to the chef to check. He too said it was prime. I have cooked a lot of prime rib in my lifetime so I feel like I know what talking about but I felt like I was being blown off like an unknowing tourist. All I know is that my meat did not look anything like what is in the photo of their prime rib on the website with photos of their menu. Love this place otherwise. Been going there for 30 years. Incredibly nice waithelp and an incredible view for a romantic evening.“

“A very romantic restaurant with delicious food and the best service you could ask for. I highly recommend Oasis On The Beach“

“Randomly ran into this place and it was total worth it. Great chat with the staff. Got the Sampler Plate and Mac salad. Shared it with my husband and it was more than enough.
Shredded beef and pork was tasty and I loved it in the BBQ sauce. The chicken was the juiciest, most tender I have ever had in my life! Could have at just a plate of the chicken. Ribs were also on point.
If you are in the area, go!
Also, I thought it was fun to have the little water guns for the chickens... You will understand once you go.
I did not try the self serve bar wall but definitely something to do next time.“

“Big Wave Dave's is the best place in Kapa'a to have a drink or two and to eat fantastic food! Lots of local atmosphere and friendly service.“

“Had the swordfish special. My wife had a fancy burger. We each had a different cocktail. Everything was really delicious!!! We also had the best server in our lives, her name was Kay. I know we will never have a server as great as her ever. We wish her the best!“

“I tried SO many poke bowls across the island of Kauai, the best one is here! The perfect balance of everything for me. If you love Poke you better try one at the crooked surf. Drinks were meh. But staff and live music were great and 5 stars for the poke“
