What a wonderful Yelp find! Lots of locals, so you know it's good and worth the price!…read more We had the Braise Short Rib special with Garlic Mashed potatoes. And the Hawaiian plate: Kaluah pork, lomi salmon, ahi poke, mac salad, and poi. I'm not a huge poi fan- so I won't comment. But I do love mac salad and theirs is special! Less "wet" from mayo, more on a thicker side-- superb! The braised short rib was melt in your mouth with a great semi glaze and fantastic crust on the meat. It is a sports bar- so the atmosphere is quite lively and loud. Do not expect a quiet dinner. But the patio is less loud.

We got the chicken and shrimp combo plate both with chili sauce. It was incredible. The chicken was crunchy and moist. The shrimp was smothered in garlic sauce.

Surprisingly delicious!!! Got the truffle burger which is a MUST for any mushroom lovers out there…read more It was ordered medium rare and they did exactly that!!

My husband ordered the Kenji Burger, which was juicy, flavorful, and piled high with toppings - caramelized onions, cheddar cheese, tomato and arugula. I chose the Misoyako Fish Bowl. Miso glazed cod was fresh and tender, served over rice with a light salad. It was even better than I expected, and I enjoyed every bite.

They had free valet parking , just leave a tip. Friendly and helpful staff. Great views. We were seated at the area closest to the beach so fantastic view and lovely outside breeze. Our server was really nice and fast service. I got the prime rib and it was a perfect size and cooked to what I asked. I loved it. Great food and location. Always a great place to come for lunch or dinner. I totally recommend this place for good food and service.

We came here as we're staying at the nearby resort (we thought our food credit could be used here,…read morebut that was not an option when we received the bill). There's 2 sections to the restaurant: upstairs is more prime rib and lobster and downstairs is more tacos and burgers (we opted for the latter). We shared the calamari- the shape was unexpected, but it had a great flavor and texture. I ordered the Mac nut fish, which was swordfish at the time, and the sauce it came with was so good. My husband ordered the kalbi ribs and chicken, which he enjoyed.

This is the spot! The portions are diner style for sure. My wife and one daughter could have shared…read morethe chicken katsu plate. The food was authentic, local and fulfilling. I had the pineapple chicken which came with two scoops rice and scoop of macaroni salad. I couldn't finish the last half scoop of rice but crushed the rest. The pineapple chicken wasn't overly sweet and chicken was tender. I'd eat here once a week if we had a spot like this in San Diego. My family had chicken katsu plate, chicken teriyaki plate and a grilled cheese. This is a totally family and kid friendly spot. Staff feels family run and very high quality service. When we visit Kauai again - this spot will be on the list.

Everyone was friendly, welcoming, and attentive, making us feel right at home each time we visited.

The broth is light, clean, flavorful, and not overly fatty, which I really appreciate. Everything tastes fresh and delicious. The service has also gotten so much better. They're always accommodating, friendly, and I never feel rushed--even when I come in closer to closing time. And considering how expensive everything has gotten on Kauai, I still think you get a really good meal for the price. Definitely one of my go-to spots when I'm craving pho!

We started with the Furikake Fries, which were packed with flavor and the perfect way to kick off the meal. For burgers, we ordered the Hapa Burger and the Kenji Burger, and both were outstanding.

The food was so good that we ended up ordering a Lobster Burrito as a second round just so we could try more of the menu. It was a great decision and did not disappoint.

Fried were pushed on me, I don't even know what my other options were. Probably mashed potatoes maybe. Which is what I would have liked. Ordered 5 piece tender meal.

We kind of joked about coming here but my oldest said it's the only KFC on the island of Kauai. Okay, let's do it! The dining room was closed, so our only option was the drive thru.

We thoroughly enjoyed our meals, and we all got to avoid a hangry episode for the day, which is always a plus! Try a bit of history at this location and enjoy!

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.
