    Side of broth and grilling fun! So good
    Brooke W.

    We stumbled into this gem after seeing the holiday lights at the town hall and lucky us!! It was Sunday night and not super busy. The service was excellent! There was only two of us so we didn't order the hot pot but we asked for a side of the broth, which she brought and we ordered the dish that you grill the meats and shrimp with the veggie option OMG everything was awesome and we got a bunch of sauces (see pics). We were in Kauai for five nights and this was our favorite meal!! They have a really lounge-y bar connected also which looked fun but we were tired from traveling so left with full stomachs and happy hearts. Thank you for everything!

    This whole experience was enjoyable. We started out with the salt and pepper buttered wings. These wings were so ono!!!! Crispy perfection! Then followed with the beef hot pot. The broth was rich and deep flavored compared to other places that offer pho on the island. All of the ingredients tasted fresh and clean. We did order an extra side of beef and pork for the hot pot, but for more reserved appetites the included quantity should suffice.

    The first hot pot ever on Kauai. This place has been open for a couple of months and it got taken over by a wonderful lady Named Wilma B last week. It's original name was The Lihue Cafe and then it later became many other things and cuisines in the past. I think for now this new owner has brought new and fresh ideas to Kauai and hope it'll stay. She plans to have more hot pots and tabletop barbecue which will start by June of this year. She will be featuring Friday night buffets which will consist of local style and Filipino foods. Tonight's hot pot consisted pork, beef, shrimp, squid, a array of vegetables, and phó noodles. The broth was very flavorful. We had half beef and half chicken, only cause we couldn't decide. The beef broth by far was our favorite. This could feed 3-4 people and it costs $29.00. There's other things you can choose from the menu. Rice plates to soup bowls to vermicelli bowls & stir fry. It's very clean and neat. The interior is very pretty and makes you feel comfortable. They might be a little slow on service, but just be patient because they just started. Give it a try, it's worth it. Congratulations Wilma and good luck!

    An example of the hot pot dish.  We ordered an extra helping of noodles (since there were 4 adults) and that was enough for us.

    For the first hot pot place on Kauai, it's really good if you are a fan of Vietnamese dishes (e.g. pho) as the broth is really tasty (we had the beef broth). It is not your typical hot pot, as it based off of Vietnamese dishes. The vegetables were really fresh and the shrimp are rather large. They recommend that the hot pot be ordered for a minimum of 3 people, there were 4 of us, so we ordered an extra helping of noodles and that was enough for all of us. The menu choices are simple and fairly priced so you won't break the bank when you go here or walk away hungry. I recommend that you give this place a try when you are on the island.

    After.

    We came to this place with high hopes because so far Kauai has very little to offer in terms of Pho. The broth at both Pho locations are watery and if the broth isn't flavorful, the Pho is awful. This place is clean, friendly, and offers great food. We ordered the beef broth hot pot with the chicken wings. I can easily say their broth is better than anything I've tried yet on the island. Their chicken wings were delicious as well. Created a yelp account so I could give them a review! Very happy customer.

    Excellent service with classy breakfast and lunch with a Philippino twist on most dishes. Food served in less the 5 minutes with a exquisite look. Restaurant it's self is very very clean with ancient statues from multiple different cultures. The owner her self gave me a tour of there wonderful bar with open and 50s theme . Great place thru and thru.

    The hotpot experience is something you must try for yourself. Delicious is an understatement!

Unless FIFA introduces a salary cap for Brie consumption, I'll be back hopefully before the next tournament. One clutch tip before you try your own championship run: reserve a table. This place stays packed harder than a World Cup final because it sits in the middle of a gorgeous Lihue plantation where you can ride trains, sample rum, and wander around pretending you're the captain of your own national squad. If your afternoon turns into a highlight reel after a couple rum tastings, sub in your phone and lock down that reservation before you're left watching from the sidelines. The Macadamia Nut Crusted Brie and grape salad deserves its own Golden Boot. The warm, crispy bread delivers perfect assists while the sweet grapes and creamy cheese play tiki-taka so beautifully they'd make defenders dizzy. Then comes the creamy portabella mushroom pasta, which doesn't need chicken, shrimp, or any superstar signing--it carries the entire squad by itself and wins the game in extra time. The staff treats every guest like they just scored the winning penalty, and if you really want the championship experience, request the patio garden. Dining out there feels less like lunch and more like lifting the World Cup trophy in paradise... minus the confetti, plus way better food. Oh BTW there bar and cocktails are to die for!!

My wife ordered the ahi tuna tacos. I ordered the coconut ginger braised seafood. It has multiple types of fresh fish of the day with lobster. The sauce is just perfect. Filling and flavorful. In the end they gave the hula pie for free for our anniversary. So kind! The twisted version was a mango sorbet. We missed the twisted version with the cookie dough. We ordered the original.

You may only walk with one drink in hand, so getting a round for the table takes 8 trips. The good bartender made them all at once so I just had to pick them up, one at a time. No line standing for drinks 2 through 8. I got my steps in. The really aren't any bad seats. We paid a little extra for "premium" seating. That got us "ringside". Well worth it. Only negative was the heat. Fans didn't come on until after the fire dancer. Maybe that was a safety thing for the performers, but the fans could have been on before the fire act (I think). Some of the older customers from cold states were having heat issues. Being from Florida, we were fine. Would we do this again, yeah I think so.

I was impressed. I thought the performers were awesome, especially the fire dancers. Just really awesome and the dancers were enthusiastic which made for a better performance. I thought the audio was a bit off. The volume was crazy loud to fill the huge tent but it was hard to hear the individual voices of the narrators. So maybe something to boost the midrange a bit in the balance of the sound system or whatever. I'm not a sound engineer. So if you're visiting Kauai and are looking for a lu'au, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kalamaku. I think you'll have a good time.
