We were thankfully accommodated since we were tired from travel. The atmosphere was welcoming! On a nicer day, would have sat on their open porch to eat. The restaurant itself is located in a second floor of a plaza. Apps we got: Gyoza (comes with 4), Papaya Salad, Poke Nachos. Kids enjoyed them! Papaya salad- we chose to get non spicy for the kids. Adults also enjoyed it, dressing was light and a good balance of sweet and sour. Poke Nachos- also good balance as the fish was fresh! The "Nachos" are just Salt and Vinegar chips you would buy at a store. I would reorder just for the fish and the marinade! Entrees: Beef Noodle soup, Curry Pork Belly, Thai Basil Pork Belly, Pad Thai, Kids Chicken Katsu Everything was delicious! The Pork Bellies were crispy ! Pad Thai was definitely the best dish as it had authentic flavors. Food Allergy Note: there are peanuts in many of their dishes. We will try to come back again before we leave Kauai.

(Dined 04/27/26 MO @ 5:30pm): Thai food and sushi always made me happy!…read more I decided to explore the nearby shopping center and came upon Bangkok Happy Bowl Thai Bistro And Sushi Bar. It was happy hour and dinner time, the happy hour menu https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=120&select=sU3aNqKNoeIXrrigGqvftQ caught my attention, and the overall frumpy decor and look captivated me to give them a shot. Founded in 2012 in Aspen, Colorado by Chef Paula Rungsawang and her partner Kirk Coult, they've visited the community several times and thought this would be a great opportunity to share their award-winning cuisine where there was little to no traditional Thai food presence. Would I be bowled over by some banging Thai food and sushi resulting in a very happy tummy!? PURCHASE(S) Blue Hawaiian Cocktail ($12.00 HH): A sweet elixir which the bartender made somewhat strong (thank you!), this drink always made me happy simply because of the color. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=120&select=Mj1qbpJwcyYJUdNDr_4S9w 3pc Bangkok Pork Sliders ($12.95 HH): Simple nibblers to work up the appetite, I found these an odd menu choice, that I just had to order them (nothing special). https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=120&select=wyB2_9x_jxvaNufqZw5L-g Maui Brewing Co.

SERVICE I was immediately greeted by a gentleman as I headed towards the bar where I was then warmly greeted by the female bartender/server. She helped me work the happy hour menu, recommended the sushi roll, quickly delivered everything, and we shared some casual chatter. It was a relaxing dinner with good company - mahalo! PARKING (FREE; N/A this instance): Located within the outdoor Poipu Shopping Village, there were plenty of spots although I took the 10-minute easy walk from the Sheraton Kaua'i Resort Villas - 'nuff said. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE A weathered-looking eatery with both indoor and outdoor dining that had competing decor ideas and a club feel, there was a short bar https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=120&select=fLb8Xkq9JnzJYFeJAY48ZQ to your left once you entered, the main dining area to your right, and then patio seating out front where there was live entertainment on a small stage. A decent amount of natural lighting came through the wide front opening while an assortment of electric ceiling light fixtures covered the rest. There were several muted TVs throughout, while pop music played in the background. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=96&select=teGtMAhYedc3smx8Yh8UDQ ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL Bangkok Happy Bowl Thai Bistro And Sushi Bar was a chill time, and I would consider another visit to actually eat Thai cuisine from their sizable menu. The happy hour was really good, the food was tasty, the prices were a bit elevated, and the service was efficient and friendly. I found very good value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $95.00 BEFORE any discounts, points usage, and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 4.0 STARS

Red curry: very coconutty, lot of veggies, good flavor, not too spicy Papaya salad: too sweet for my taste. if you want it spicy, you must ask for it.
