This casual poolside restaurant in the Westin Hapuna Hotel was a lovely choice with a nice view of the ocean. The menu was pupus, salads and sandwiches, all nicely prepared, great quality ingredients, and flavorful. Notable is that the salads had locally grown baby romaine, usually only available at farmers' markets. The price point for drinks is ~$24 dollars and sandwiches and salads are about $30.
Great varied menu, should be enough for May people to find something to their liking. They only have one lager on the menu, but they were out with no suitable replacement. That was disappointing considering they are a beachside bar and grill. The sunset view is top notch.
Libby, our waitress was amazing! She went above and beyond for us and made us feel so welcomed even though we showed up at 8:45pm she even got me a blanket to cover my shoulders because it was a chilly night. She was so sweet and wonderful!!!
Service was great at first and lessened after a large party group arrived in our section (expected, and still good just not great). Food was good and consistent with other visits. Noise level was perfect when we arrived, super loud after the large group arrived. Will continue to visit as we do still enjoy!!
Naupaka is the informal beachside/poolside restaurant at the Westin. It is a wonderful place to watch the Hawaiian sunset. My wife and I have eaten there twice. She raves about the salad. I had a great catch of the day and a very good cheeseburger. This is a fun, convenient alternative to the fancier restaurants at Westin and Mauna Kea.
Can't get a much better place to sit and watch the sun go down over the ocean. Perfect casual and comfortable place with good food and drinks.
Food choices are okay - basic beach fare. Prices are reasonable. Family friendly. Service was a bit slow
Everything was beyond expectations. Local caught fish, tuna starter, 0 proof drinks, we got a dessert to go as well. 5/5

Off the chart menu and service! The menu had something for everyone! We had the burger, which was juicy and ample, and sweet potato fries, which were a great addition. Koa was our waitstaff and he was simply the best…knowledgeable and helpful. This is definitely a repeat!

I was not expecting much due to the rating the place has on Google Maps.
However the restaurant is actually very good.
The food is tasty and the service is great. Will definitely visit more.

We were mildly surprised that they had a separate little vegan and vegetarian menu. The food was very fresh and well prepared.
The service was absolutely unacceptable, especially for a resort of this supposed standard. Our server was nowhere to be found for most of the meal. The burger was the worst I ever had. The lack of teamwork and attention to detail was shocking. The manager was there to give us a better table but the other than that the rest was full of disappointment.

What a surprise. We came for a casual meal, but didn't expect much other than a nice atmosphere. However, the food was really good and the service was excellent. Sat outside near the pool and the evening was really nice. We will definitely be back.
We especially enjoyed the warm, friendly, professional, and accommodating service at this casual poolside restaurant. The “Eat Well Menu” offers additional healthy selections, including the delicious hearts of palm, avocado, cherry tomato, and butter leaf lettuce salad, and seared Ahi Takaki. The petite half roast chicken with locally grown vegetables over mashed potatoes was attractively plated and excellent. Ice cream desserts are made with locally made Tropical Dreams ice cream. The ganache chocolate shell covered ice cream “Tartuffo” is huge - easily large enough for two to share. We enjoyed dining at this comfortable restaurant very much.
