We were pleasantly surprised with the shopping opportunity at their cute little shop, Minnie's Mercantile, and bought homemade beef tallow lotion, ranch style shirts and earrings, hat, and a cute cowhide wallet. For this being a small family-ran store there were lots of gifts and souvenirs to choose from, the more we looked around the more we added to our purchases! The owner was very friendly and shared their 5 generations of family history raising cattle with us. The handmade products they sell reflect their proud cattle ranching heritage by using beef tallow as an important ingredient in their skincare products and one of their hats had the various family cattle brands incorporated into the design. Although this was a quick stop to grab steaks we really enjoyed talking to the owner and the shopping experience. I highly recommend stopping by! Looking forward to cooking up our steaks, I know they will be delicious!

The day we went they were running out of beef and didn't really have anything for the grill. However, she went to see if there was something in the freezer and brought out two nice New York Strip steaks. We purchased those and grilled them the next night. Delicious! Great flavor and very tender. So accommodating! Their other sewn and leather products appeared to be locally made. A lot of lotions that smelled wonderful but I didn't really take the time to look at those. Worth the stop!

Grab some food like spam musubi which was our fave to eat for your hikes or the beach. They have bentos and a variety of sweet and salty items but don't go too late as they do run out.

They also carry everything else like souvenirs, water shoes, etc.

They have a good amount of local products, I picked up some local Kauai honey from Free to Bee and local Sol Remedies tea leaves to bring back home to California.

The acai bowl place as poppin', I'll definitely have to come back and try it. They also sold juice shots from Kauai Juice Co and mason jars with overnight oats in all different flavors. We opted to get the PB and banana one, excited to give it a try. They sell tons of local products and meats. Unfortunately no local Kaua'i eggs sold here, go to Hoku market for that. They also sell Gina's banana bread for $8.50 near the register, they are huge portions and she doesn't skimp on the nuts, very tasty!! Next to the poke, they also have a food warmer stocked with to-go hot breakfast bentos as well as musubi. Wish I knew that earlier during my trip!

We got there at a good time line was minimal and we brought the crowd with us once again lol. Honestly didnt know what to get because I was overwhelmed by all the different choices available everything looked so good but I always have a default 2choice poke bowl with anything spicy ahi, and got there gingah spread ahi. You can also choose different toppings for your bowl and of course why not get all of them to compliment the fresh poke even more. The ahi was super fresh and ONO (delicious) melt in your mouth kine action so soft. This is one of those stops when you first land "next stop lawai'a" lol iykyk. 300

There was a small line when we arrived, but it moved very quickly. Decided to get their 2 choice poke bowl - with all rice, poke choices I got were da ginger one & spicy ahi.. and of course I got all the toppings (which are included). My poke bowl was super good. Da ginger one poke was by far my favorite!! Can tell the fish is super fresh since it has that melt in your mouth texture that every local craves. This is definitely gonna be my first stop on my next visit back to Kauai!

My burger was just okay. It was advertised as a smash burger, but the patty didn't really have the crispy edges or texture I'd expect from one. On the other hand, my wife absolutely loved her fried chicken bowl and said it was packed with flavor. One of the highlights of our visit was the hospitality. We mentioned we were celebrating our honeymoon, and the owner (or who I believe was the owner) was incredibly friendly and even let us pick out a pastry to celebrate. That thoughtful gesture really made our visit memorable. Great service, good drinks, and a welcoming atmosphere made for an enjoyable experience overall.

Costco is the place to go to reduce the overwhelming costs of inflation. Granted- it is still…read moreexpensive and I have notice my purchased went from $250 a week to $400 plus. Still it is obviously the best place to get the most for your buck. Our location has some distinct qualities that you may want to know before you go. 1) this is a local gathering place, if your expecting a Costco-RAT-Race, like the mainland, think again. People often stop to give hugs and aloha to friends they see, staying to chat in inconvenient areas to tourist (I am totally guilty of this, and I love seeing my friends, students and their families- you just got to send them your "ALOHA") This may be annoying to some people, but it is a way of life here- so just be happy to have a little slice of aloha. 2) they don't always have stock- Tuesdays are a great day to go. Lastly, 3) checking out. If you choose to self-check out... you may be confused. As it stands now, and for a really long time, there is one line to stand in for 3 lanes of check out. Is it logical: no. Does it confuse visitors and even people like me: yes. For some reason, Costco wants all self-checkout folks to stand in one line and then go calmly and orderly to whichever of the 3 checkout lane openings is free. This really confuses visitors, and sometimes even leaves them with stink eye or scoldings from the locals. After all, those who live on Kauai have been trained to the 1 line system. About 1/2 the time, there is a staff that alerts the next person to go to the available self-check out, but where they are not there, or need to assist someone with self-checkout or review and ID for alcohol: they are not there. I am really not sure why they have kept this single line system, rather than having 3 lines, but I guess there must be some reason for this. Does anyone know? 4) Please be kind to the staff, offer some aloha to them- Q, Carry and Deb are some of my favorite folks. Costco always tolerates me coming in costume as Darth Vadar and Princess Leia. This Costco is part of the aloha experience- please treat it with love. ***** If you are an executive member- this Costco is opening earlier for you! Make sure you check the times, this Saturday they opened at 8:45am and weekdays they open at 9am for the Executive Members. Enjoy and alooooha!

It was our last day in Kauai, and didn't want to spend our time at the airport, waiting for our…read moreredeye flight. So decided to go to Costco to see if their optical department could tighten my Costco glasses before heading back to the mainland. The optical department closes earlier than the store itself, so we ended up wandering around. We intentionally went there on the last day after our luggage had been packed, thinking it would prevent us from buying things to bring back. But there were two things that we don't see on the mainland, that were of good price: 1.5 Coffee beans from Molokai Estate Coffee (100% from Molokai, and which my wife confirmed later was very good) and a Ube cream Liquor from the Philippines, that went great with the said coffee. Both fit in our checked bags and made it home safe. It wasn't too crowded because it was close to closing and was of large size, including self checkout lanes. Another good visit to Costco.

This is a great spot to get a poki plate. Everything tasted fresh…read more Parking is very limited. We had to wait for someone to leave so that we can park. They have a stand only counter space out front. It's a nice view of the street. I really like that they had a sink outside to wash your hand before and after eating. They have to go snacks and jerky as well Merch. Their macaroni was ok. It's portioned for about four spoonfuls. It had potatoes in it which I wasn't expecting. I bought a masubi as a to go snack. It was pretty good. I had the best fish plate. I chose the spicy Aji and shrimp. I got it with the edamame and cucumbers. I really enjoyed the crunch and the freshness of the cucumbers. The only thing I would suggest is that the plates could use a little more rice.
