    Savage Shrimp Hit the Spot! After some much-needed walking and shopping therapy, hunger kicked in--and Savage Shrimp caught my eye. Spotted garlic shrimp on the menu and immediately thought, "Oooh, like Giovanni's!" Waited a quick 10 minutes, and bam--served hot and ready. Not exactly the same as Giovanni's, but still totally delicious. Packed with flavor and definitely worth the stop. Hit the spot!

    Savage Plate

    In Hawaii one must order a shrimp plate and this was a solid place to visit. It is situated on the side of shopping center with limited seating and a walk up counter. The garlic shrimp was pretty good. Not as flavorful as others I have tried. The Cole slaw was solid. Portions were a little smaller but kept me going till dinner.

    Mid experience, wondering if I just ordered the wrong thing. A small hole in the wall place in the shopping plaza that I was excited to try. I ordered the garlic shrimp plate which was labeled as a fan favorite, but honestly, there was nothing really to write home about as I barely tasted anything. The rice mightve been the best part. Also, paying like two dollars extra for them to peel the shrimp seems kind of crazy too. Friendly service though which was nice. Was just kind of dissapointed in my selection, would recommend trying something else.

    Ordered the Favorite garlic shrimps and were very disappointed. We didn't taste garlic at all. The salad was the best. Would not recommend that dish.

    This is the KALUA PORK w/ salad and rice. I'll let the pictures do the speaking. Is that bbq sauce in there?

    BBQ sauce kalua pork with shredded ice berg lettuce. Why is there a lemon? Safer eateries down the road. EDIT: I have diarrhea now eating here.

    This looks like an absolute hole in the wall, but it's delicious! You order right at the door and sit at one of the few tables out front. Everything comes out quickly, and so good. Each plate has quite a few shrimp that you will need to peel yourself unless you request they come already peeled, rice and this delicious and tangy slaw. We were starving and ate everything up very quickly. We got two orders of the fire rock plate, one no ka oi plate, and one aloha plate. We also ordered a cheese quesadilla for our 5 year old which wasn't anything special but was eaten up.

    Small portion and mushy shrimp

    I was excited to see a spot that had garlic butter shrimp near our hotel. I was a little skeptical when I read the bad reviews but passed by one afternoon and saw the food looked good. So, we came here one night for dinner and we were do disappointed! We all got some form of non fried shrimp and all the shrimp was clearly from frozen. They were small and mushy. The flavor also didn't permeate the shrimp so you had a bland shrimp swimming in butter. I gave 2 stars because the staff was super friendly.

    They are located in the nearby mall nearest to our hotel. I loved their garlic shrimp dishes. We ordered everything above and below the moon on their menu. We got their garlic shrimp dish, curry shrimp, but our favortite was our garlic shrimp tacos! That is a top notch eats.

    Pork Tacos

    2.5 stars. Flavor wise the food is actually decent but it was a rip off for the price. The portions are so small and the pineapple curry was slightly disappointing - it just didn't feel like there was that much passion in the cooking.

    Food was unoriginal, not enough flavor in the garlic shrimp. Portion size also was not enough for $18. In my opinion overhyped and overpriced. Would not recommend

    Garlic Scampi Plate

    Stopped by on a Saturday just before 5pm for take out. They charge an extra $0.50 per item for to go. There was no wait to order. I ordered a garlic shrimp plate - $16.95 and Bahia tacos - $13.95. Shrimps were of standard size. It tastes alright for what it is.

    Bario Brazilian Shrimp. So good!!!!

    Savage Shrimp was convenient, affordable, and a solid lunch while shopping. Husband says his fire rock shrimp wasn't that spicy.

    Best meal of the trip. That seared ahi with jasmine garlic rice is something I'll go back home…read moredreaming about. It was a perfect sear (didn't taste wasabi but the shoyu flavor sear is to die for), complementary flavors of the rice and perfectly seasoned wok bok slaw. The wagyu tenderloin and Mac nut crusted fish were also so, so delicious. Honestly, I'd be happy to eat any of these three entrees. The tako escargot was beyond over cooked, however the flavors were exceptional. I'd order it again and give it another try. Tastes just like authentic French escargot, and make sure to dip the provided bread into all that delicious butter. We ended the night with the chocolate purse and it was so light, but still so fulfilling. This location kicks mauis locations butt in food! Server was great and knew lots of fun facts about the Merriman restaurants. They were very accommodating with my baby. Thanks for the best meal of our trip, Merrimans!

It was Mother's Day and there were specials we ordered for entrees. My husband had the Venison and I had the catch of the day. Definitely check this place out. I would make it a point to go every time I visit Kauai

    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!

    It was great to know that there was an elevator to bring us up to the level of the restaurant…read more After a terrible experience at another restaurant, it gave me the idea to call and see if they had an elevator near by. 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.

There is a section of the menu where you can pick two entrées and are then served a half portion of each. Three of the guests at our table had the duo. They all enjoyed them and the lamp rack was the clear stand out. I had the filet. It was perfectly cooked. The potatoes, mushrooms and asparagus served with it were delicious. I would highly recommend dinner at Rum Fire ask for Jonny to serve you.
