We didn't expect pool side, lounging food to be both this delicious and healthy overall. Since pork is a Hawaiian speciality we had to get some pork dishes. The pork nachos and quesadilla were both tender and flavorful with hearty portions. I also enjoyed their Chinese chicken salad, but was surprised by the notable lack of wontons (would've been perfect with more). Service was pleasant and our food came out promptly.

They're more on the casual side, and they're on the first floor, so no ocean view. But they have a great covered patio area that is fun and VERY protected. My sister in law and I each tried the macadamia crusted mahi mahi and we really loved it. We got the mashed potatoes with it which was definitely the right call. Unfortunately the broccoli was pretty bland. But my family loved their lilikoi foam-topped Mai Tais. I want to thank the staff because I called and left a message asking to be seated inside since we were worried about rain. Our party was too big for the inside seating (it's very limited), but they made sure to put us in a very protected area on the patio. Our waitress was welcoming and patient. There is plenty of parking in the shopping center which is always helpful. We would definitely come back!

The hidden gem of Kauai!…read more We thought the warehouse looked cool from the front with no expectations of whet may be hidden behind the facade. Drift is now our mandatory revisit when in Kauai. Star 1- clean. Every visible surface, glass, seat and table were clean Star 2- the food was spectacular. I had the Cali Reuben sandwich. It was fantastic. My wife had the Cobb Salad. It was perfect! Star 3- we are not typically "specialty drink" drinkers. The list was introduced to us by the owner who explained every drink was made with top shelf spirits, fresh juices and fruit, and was something they had found, enjoyed, and recreated to serve. Their love for balance and presentation shown through. We tried 4 of their creations and LOVED all of them. Star 4- Environment, the back area is relaxing, beautiful, is on island time. Very enjoyable. Don't rush, just enjoy. Star 5- Owners, kind, warm, and they care about the items brought to the table. Star 6- the whole package. Great value, this is now added as a top stop when in Kauai for us

I wish I had the chance for a proper review.

The grill also provides pool service for food and drinks, which elevates the whole experience when you're using the pool. I swear this is a hidden gem in Poipu, where prices at most restaurants are through the roof for mediocre food and service. Our favorite dish on the menu here is the seared ahi tacos, and the kids love their teriyaki chicken and rice bowls--it is so nice to finally see something besides chicken tenders or fries on a kid's menu! Service is quick and friendly, and the vibes are chill with popular Hawaiian music playing throughout the bar. It has a laid-back atmosphere and is the perfect spot to unwind. Looking forward to going back here when we are back in Kaui

A very inconsistent meal here. Our table ordered the Brussel sprouts and the mussels as…read more appetizers. Brussel sprouts were very good. After we placed our order for the steamed mussels the server informed us that it would be a mixture of mussels and clams. When the dish came out, it was all clams, no mussels at all. They were very good and the curry sauce they were steamed in was yummy, but it just wasn't what we initially ordered. I ordered the fresh catch fish, which was very disappointing. The fish itself was very fresh tasting, but it was overcooked to the point of being dry. It was also bland and seemed to be unseasoned. It sat on a bed of purple sweet potato with a fresh succotash mixture on the side. The vegetables must have been plated long before the fish was ready because the potatoes and vegetables were no longer even warm, which was an unpleasant combo with the overcooked, bland fish. There was a sauce on the side, but not nearly enough considering the dry slab of tasteless fish sitting on top of cold potatoes. Others at the table ordered the lamb chops and steaks. The lamb chops were delicious and those at our table with steaks seemed very happy with them. Our server forgot to bring the drinks to 2 of the 6 people in our party. She did offer to remove the mussels from the bill due to the error in preparing this dish. Atmosphere was extremely loud, there was a singer in the bar area with the volume turned up high. That combined with the large bar area open to the restaurant made it so loud that it was nearly impossible to carry on a conversation in the dining area. It is a fairly pricey restaurant. For the price, I'd expect better service and a better prepared meal. There are far better choices elsewhere on the island.
