This place was POPPIN'. I ordered online as I sat in the restaurant next door, knowing it could take some time. You can BYO pizza, but I went with custom pizza that spoke to me from the menu. The Garlicky White Devil. This pizza did not disappoint. Even after having a meal next door, I still ate 2 slices. It was light, thin, crispy, and the flavor smacked you upside the head. Why does arugula go so well with pizza? I Don't know, it just does. This is a must next time we come in. I would love to actually sit down, order some 'Za and get some brews to experience the sit down service.

As of this moment, there is construction fencing around the grounds, so it was hard to find this place from the road if you're not staying at this hotel, but parking seemed plentiful. And then you have to walk towards the pool and past the snack shop to find it. The host stand is also outdoors away from the patio. Avocado Toast was yummy, but a little slippery: the sliced tomatoes that sat on top of the sliced avocados slid right off and onto the table, so a fork and knife is recommended.

Everything was delicious. Service was welcoming and fast! We were in and out in about an hour. We sat in the shaded area with a view of the pool which was lovely. There is dedicated parking for people eating at Holoholo which is always appreciated. Thanks for yet another great breakfast!

However, there was not a vegetarian option for us to try so we simply went with the dessert. We got their Ube Haupia. This is a traditional Hawaiian dessert made out of coconut milk and starch. It looks like a jelly and has a very creamy texture. Tasted yummy as well! Must try! Ambience and service was good as well.

My first dining experience on this short trip was at Kaua'i Island Brewing Co. The oldest cumulative brewery on Kaua'i at 23 years, it held the distinction as the world's westernmost brewery on the island of Kaua'i based on where the International Dateline crossed American Samoa. It's been years since I last visited Kaua'i when the now departed Kaua'i Beer Co. was my watering hole. Would their own brews keep me in good company with local islanders!?

OVERALL I had an awesome time at Kaua'i Island Brewing Co. and would visit again. They had 12 beers on tap, the food was wonderful, the prices were a tad high, and the service was great. Unsure if furry family members were allowed. Daily happy hour specials and almost certain nightly entertainment such as trivia, music, and more was available. I found complete value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $87.00 BEFORE any discounts, points usage, and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 5.0 STARS

I ordered the Calamari and it was delicious. Great appetizers. All the beers we ordered were great, and Chris will explain to you everything you need to know about them. If you're a sour guy, the Calamansi Sour was tops. Sooooooo amazing! To top it off...best Mai Tai's I've had... and yes, I'm taking into account the famous ones from this Island. Pizzas were good, on-par with decent pub pizza. My only reservation with this place is the nickel and diming of sauces etc. $1 for Tartar sauce and ranch to me sounds a bit nit-picky when you consider the sheer size of our bill. Loved that they kept the place going for us a little past closing. We immediately knew they were waiting for us when the music shut off for closing when we stepped outside. BTW, plenty of outdoor seating. Only a few seats inside. You may wait a bit if you want to stay inside. Will 10000% be back.

Every time we're in Kauai, always dine at Eating once or twice. Fantastic food, service and views…read more We had reservations which are highly recommended. Request a table near the windows for a sunset view. We arrived and were greeted and seated immediately. Shortly afterwards we were served complementary spicy edamame. We ordered three appetizers to share. Brussel Sprouts & Cauliflower, Black Garlic & Yuzu Ahi Tartar and Vietnamese Style Sashimi. The Brussel Sprouts & Cauliflower was excellent, golden raisins and pine nuts add sweetness and texture, balsamic vinegar counters with wonderful acid contrast. The Black Garlic & Yuzu Ahi Tartar is simply fabulous, one of the best bites I have ever had. I first had this dish two years ago when it was introduced as a new dish in a prefix meal. On that trip we returned to enjoy the dish once again. Had it again last year as I travel to Kauai each year. I'm happy to see it is still on the menu! Our third dish was the Vietnamese Style Sashimi and it was okay, although a bit underwhelming for Eating House standards. It was fresh but lack the complexity that I have grown to expect from this restaurant. We requested some wasabi and it helped with the flavors. My thinking is the jalapeño oil should have been more concentrated or pronounced. To be clear I did not complain, regardless the dish was removed from our bill. Very nice. Thank you. The server was friendly and knowledgeable. The view at sunset was amazing. Looking forward to returning. Highly recommended!

The front desk staff guided me to the elevator. This trip was for my birthday. In every reservation when asked about a special occasion, I put birthday. This was the first restaurant to acknowledge my special day. The check-in staff wished me well as did the server. We had been to several restaurants prior to Eating House that didn't say a word. Kudos to the staff for its kindness. The restaurant is open air and very comfortable. It has a rustic feel. We were seated by the window on a cool, rainy night but were perfectly dry the whole evening. On top of that, our server was very helpful in guiding us to order the right amount of food. He brought us a serving of edamame which is always on the house. The shrimp & pork potstickers were very good. I had the ramen which was tasty, filling and a great choice. Our server was terrific to put the spicy oil on the side which made it easier for me to eat. My husband had the butterfish which is the best I have ever tasted. It is a signature dish and always a pleaser. The only real downside is the limited menu. We were told that because of a staff shortage, it wasn't the typical menu. This was disappointing. But they did have the best of the Roy's dishes. So far, it has been the best experience that we have had in Poipu.
