Food is amazing, drinks are good, and we loved sitting by the bar couches & listening to the locals play music. Romantic, peaceful. And service was great!!! Gluten free bread and other great options!!

Ate here the first night we arrived at Kauai Coast Beachboy and the food was very fresh. The Manhattan clam chowder was outstanding. Try the mixed grill and Ahi tuna. Very friendly service.

the pupu (appetizer) selection is excellent. We loved the artisan cheeses, barbecue ribs and sweet potato ravioli with lemon grass cream sauce.

Very nice place! The Ahi Tuna Candy and Sweet potato ravioli are amazing!! The prices are high, and the tasty and flavor matches. Try to sit in the lounge!

The wait is out of this world so reservations are a must. The service is prompt and friendly. The food arrives quickly but is unimaginative for the price. Three stars overall.

Try the Candied Ahi - I ate my first flower tonight!! It came with the Candied Ahi, featuring a cajun coffee spiced, coconut chipotle sauce (via @Foodspotting)

Best Calamari appetizer I've ever had!! And they also serve Mac Nut piña Colada (with Traders Vic Macademia Nut liquor) which just a handful of restaurants/bars have.

The tasting menu is wonderful! If you have allergies (gluten, etc.), they seem very knowledgable and the GF bread is amazing!!! Best food I've had on Kauai.

I had the vegetable lasagna and it was amazing!!!!!

Honestly I wasn't too crazy about the lobster curry bisque. It was really sweet. Too sweet for a bisque. But the Swiss chard and mushroom tart was good.
