The food is always amazing & the staff is like family. It's a definite must dine when you're on the Westside of Kauai.

Don't go unless you have reservations!!! Me and my girl walked in asked the hostess if there was room for 2 she asked if we had reservations I told her no and all she told me was "Oh hold on!" She didn't give me even a wait time nothing! And mind you we went maybe 30min after they opened so they only had a table for 6 and 2 tables for 2 outside that was occupied. Easily counted 10+ empty tables so we waited politely on the side for 10-15min seen a couple servers smile at us looked at the hostess she still staring at her iPad so we left. Food could be good I wouldn't know out of all the empty tables we could've been seated on we got none of them. I would understand if the place was busy but to only have 3 tables occupied and so many tables available it sounds to me more like a joke than anything! Honestly if anyone goes make sure you make a reservation even if it's only for yourself cause from are experience this is a RESERVATION ONLY!!! restaurant. Pretty sad! I live here on Kauai and I wouldn't recommend it to my family my friends or any visitors!!! read more

Good food -great ribs Poor table service except for bus boy We gave him a good tip After delivering our food We Never our female server We told her that. Her response "  she laughed and said sorry ". ?? Sorry, but I don't tip for bad service! read more

FIRST UP: DO NOT BE FOOLED THIS IS THE EXACT SAME BUSINESS AS THE SADDLE ROOM. Confusing, perplexing service. Most of the menu they are out of. Really low-rent sides. (veggies out of a microwave bag) Steak was A-OK. If you want a steak, and maybe a water to dump all over it (sloppy steaks!)...this place is great. Everyone else should probably go elsewhere. Oh yeah: there was also a person playing live music. And by playing live music, I mean singing and holding a guitar and not actually playing it while guitar notes came out of a speaker. read more

THE BEST bread pudding. Seriously, go try it and thank me later. The mud pie is good, too, but we will be dreaming of that bread pudding. Super friendly server who made sure we were well taken care of when they were out of a few menu items (hey, it happens on an island in the Pacific!). The sizzling ahi platter is easily made a meal and the steaks are perfectly cooked. The Saddle Room is right next door, so don't be confused when you look up the menu and it's the same as Wrangler's. read more

This was a fantastic restaurant we stumbled upon after a visit to Waimea Cyn. Such a cool Wild West appeal at a steakhouse in Kauai! The place was busy and a house full of locals! We were definitely in the right place! We sat at the long picnic table in the bar and had excellent service! The drinks were great and so were our dinners! There were 6 of us and everyone was very happy with their food! My NY steak was a bit tough for such a high end cut of meat but tasted really good! If you're looking for a steakhouse in the Waimea area? Highly recommend coming here! read more

Amazing food, drinks, atmosphere! Also really loved the bartender Alicia! Very attentive, nice and knowledgeable about the area! Will definitely be back! read more

Loved the food and the service! Steaks were grilled to the doneness of our liking and staff were authentic and polite. Prices are reasonable considering it's Kauai. I'm thinking we'll return once more before leaving. We ordered: calamari, peppered steak, another ribeye and the tempura plate. Yummy all around! read more

This is such a cute restaurant. It's got that western feel vibe. They sell cowboy hats and other various western paraphernalia. We ordered Mai Tai's and Old Fashions. I'll attach a video of the Old Fashion presentation. The drinks were wonderful. We actually ordered another round after dinner so that we could stay and listen to the musician. He was amazing as well. Our party ordered shrimp scampi, steak and shrimp scampi, and the rib eye. All of the plates were wonderful. The meat was juicy and cooked to perfection. The shrimp had an amazing garlic flavor. We did not wait long for our food after ordering. The service was fantastic. Our waitress was on top of our every need. She constantly checked back with us to make sure we were not lacking a thing. This was an absolutely top notch experience. I highly recommend this restaurant to you. read more

Place is located at the mouth of the canyon. Great after hike location with outdoor seating. Went there in the summer and winter. Summer is a little hot with flies in outdoor.. winter was perfect. They serve local grass fed beef so farm to table as you can get.. steak was awesome.. I left no fat scraps as the total steak was trimmed perfectly before cooking. read more

Dinner in Waimea, Kaua'i.... I love coming to this restaurant when visiting the island of Kaua'i. This time, we had 6 of us on our table. Since my sister mentioned they make a fabulous chimoy martini, I needed to give it a try. She was absolutely spot on. I love the li hing mui rim making it sweet and salty. For dinner, I was hungry for a burger, and my niece suggested the Wrangler burger that came with bacon, cheese and mushrooms. For a little $ more, I ordered the garlic fries instead of regular. I did enjoy the burger. Even though the patty tasted like it needed more salt by itself, the other things on the burger balanced it out well. I tried rack of lamb leg from my husband's plate and it was very tender without any gamey taste. Our waitress, Shara, had us in stitches! She was so funny. The rest of the staff were also very friendly. We all left very satisfied with our meal. Definitely will come back here again. read more

The food was very good and the service was excellent. The Pinapple Ice tea was fabulous. Over all it was a good dining experience.

Our server Katrina F was awesome! She definitely a keeper! The food we ordered was very satisfying! However the soup of the day was a bit salty! We sat out on the front porch & we experienced some flies issue but Katrina quickly brought us a fly fan to help with it! read more

Reservations are a must here as it gets crowded. I love to reserve the back porch as it's outside and covered and they do not have a ton of tables there. The steaks are delicious and definitely the best on Kauai. The mixed vegetables were fresh and properly cooked not mushy and had nice seasoning on it. The portions were good I did not leave hungry. Wines were basic here and the call drinks were good but basic. Prices point was very good for Kauai. read more

Wow !!!! If I could give it more stars I would. First off, I missed my reservation by 45 minutes which was totally my fault, I got the times wrong. The girls were so sweet and it worked out that we ended up eating down by the bar, by the AC and we had the BEST time!!!! The service was superb, they made us feel like ohana. We absolutely LOVED it !!!!!!! Food was amazing, Wranglers is known for their lamb and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. My husband had the Elk and he really liked it. The bread pudding was to die for. We will definitely be back !!!! read more

The price was more than fair! $14 for a bacon cheeseburger with fries in 2024 is unheard of at a real restaurant. Damn good burger too. Asked for medium rare got a medium rare crispy bacon nice bun not over soggy. A second piece of bacon on there would have been nice, but otherwise otherwise good read more

One of the worst dining experiences I've had in a long time. 5 adults and two children squeezed into two small table tops. No we did not have reservations so I can appreciate being accommodated but the attitude the staff showed was boarding on rude. Our waitress seemed boarded, uninterested and seemingly in a daze. The food quality was just OK. I had pork ribs that were small and under cooked. Overall, very unimpressed and you'd do better to stay home and BBQ yourself. read more

when I called to book a reservation I was told the tables were booked then I asked if we could just walk in and wait for a a table I was Told no they wouldn't be able to seat us because all the tables are booked. I have walked in on Valentine's Day before and got a table. This is Bull! We used to go every year for our anniversary but no more I will find somewhere else to celebrate my anniversary at from now on!!! read more

We got our food to go. Took longer than expected but the food was delicious. I got the shrimp scampi pasta it was excellent the shrimp was super fresh and the sauce was really tasty. My husband got the ribeye, he really enjoyed it and the garlic mash was really good. Overall it was a solid good meal and we definitely will be back when in Kauai. read more

AMAZINGLY delicious steaks cooked over kiawe wood. Husband had rib eye and I had pulehu steak (filet with garlic butter sauce). Both were excellent and cooked exactly as ordered. Smooth tasty "crust" on the steaks was so yummy. Sautéed mushrooms with garlic were yummy. Dessert was mud pie (my fave) and a peach cobbler made to order. Service was excellent. Great birthday dinner for my husband. We will definitely be back. Worth the drive from Lihue ! read more

Steak was cooked perfectly. Service good. Nice spot with parking. I had issue with the additional UNMENTIONED charges..... $2 for "bartenders pour" for the $12 Jameson. $5 extra for a baked potato. And $.50 for garlic fries. No mentions of these charges on the menu nor from server. The menu mentions credit card surcharge which I understand. But to add these fees without mention wasn't cool. read more

This is an awesome spot for some good old fashion meat or chicken when you're at Kauai. Very tasty! So delicious!...A must ... especially if you are heading towards or back from Napali! read more

Great steakhouse with fun cowboy aesthetic throughout the restaurant. The cocktails are amazing! But the real showstopper is their steaks. We drinks we had the chamoi martini and passionate mai tai. Both were sweet but enjoyed the tropical sweetness. For the appetizer we ordered the ahi sizzle (seared ahi with onion, asparagus, and tomatoes). For my entree, I ordered the pulehu steak, filet mignon with garlic butter sauce. Opted for the garlic mashed potatoes which was the perfect complement to the garlic butter sauce from the steak. Ordered a draft beer to go along with my steak. Highly recommend getting a reservation if you plan to come in the evening as the restaurant fills up fast. Or go early when they first open to avoid the dinner rush. We went after hiking in Waimea canyon. read more

We ordered "medium" Filets and the waitress served us "well done" Filets. We told our waitress and she said she will inform the chef. When meal was done, the hostess came over and asked how was our meal? We politely told her our meal was not what we ordered as we ordered medium filets. She responded she will tell the chef. It was very frustrating as the chef never came out to talk to us and nothing ever became of two employees allegedly talking to the chef. it was a very expensive meal when you consider we were served well done steaks. By the way, the shrimp that we had with our salad were not deveined. I will not go back nor ever recommend this Restaurant to anybody else. read more

Was recommended by our first mate on our Napoli Coast boat tour. Shout out to Raquel (Rocky). She said to get the local Kauai burgers. We all 4 got one and they were great. Garlic fries were awesome as well. Drinks were really good also. I had the margarita and a couple others had the Moscow Mule. Brother really liked the Mango Mule. Would definitely recommend. Service was excellent and waiter was extremely nice and helpful. read more

Amazing food and even better service!! I'm in town for a week and stopped by here on my second night only to come back a few days later and plan on going once more before I leave!! Have had the Wrangler burger, Tinono, garlic Parmesan wings, and the mango cobbler (twice) and literally every bite has exceeded expectations! The burger has a smokey taste to it which I wasn't expecting but was pleasantly surprised by! Keenan at the bar let me know that it has been voted best burger in Hawaii before and I can see why! First time having tinono and I'm upset I haven't had it before. A different taste than I'm used to with the garlic and soy sauce but mixed with the tomatoes, onion, and pork belly it has a great balance and flavor profile. I've never had garlic parmesan wings like this before as they were almost smothered in sauce but really worth a try for something flavorful and different! I'm a big fan of wings and these are some of the better ones I've had! And the mango cobbler is literally what brought me back for my second visit!! So simple and so good!! The crust is light and crispy and the mango is perfectly sweet! The ice cream on top brings a change in texture and brings it all together! Seriously a must try!! Had the pleasure of sharing some beers and great conversation with Alicia, Keenan, and Marissa (owner) at the bar and the hospitality was world class!! I would come back for the inviting conversations alone! Great restaurant and bar with even better people!! Do yourself a favor and stop by if you're in Waimea to try food cooked with love and a side of Ohana!! read more

We've been meaning to try this steak house, and we finally made it there last night. This is a true steakhouse, ambiance and all. Super cute western gear gift shop!!!!!!! My husband had the rib eye and my sister and I had shrimp scampi....ALL OF IT SO DELICIOUS. The service was top notch, probably the best service experience on island. No kidding. We'll be back read more

This was a spur of the moment stop for dinner on our last day driving around. The place itself was pretty cool with a western theme. It was pretty early but the entire bar area was packed so we were lucky enough to have the only booth. I got a ribeye and mashed potatoes. It really hit the spot, so much so that there was Nothing left - absolutely nothing read more

Service was great. So friendly. Wasn't a fan of how the Buffalo wings were breaded. My medium rare sizzling steak was kind of over cooked and tough. Tasted under seasoned as well. The steak & scampi. The scampi pasta was delicious and that alone was a 5/5. My husband didn't like his wrangler burger because there was way too much char flavor on the patty. The peach cobbler arrived looked more like a peach pie. It was pretty tasty though. Overall 3.5 read more

We stopped in on a whim. Lots of good options. Super friendly staff. They've been there for years. The Pupu (starter for you mainlanders) platter with calamari, crab cake and a small NY steak with mushrooms. THE best crabcake we've ever had! Calamari was perfect, tender with a super light coating (panko?) . Hubby had the large NY strip served on a hot platter. For dessert, we tried their bread pudding and OMG again the best I've ever had. read more

Great low key restaurant. We went on a saturday night and it was very busy. I would definitely recommend reservations. They had live music which was really good. The service was the best we have had on the whole island. The steaks were cooked good as was the sea food. They also had a custom hat shop attached to the restaurant , which the kids loved. I think everything was priced well for the quailty! read more

Had reservations for 6:30pm and we arrived 1/2hr early, so we hung out till our table was ready even tho had a lot of other tables open, but not sure the system the use for seating people. Drink order was taken had some issues with that but got it figured out! Then our order was taken but waitress seemed flustered and a bit short with us. Understood everyone got things going on we know nothing about. Food was ok. And I guess we all felt let down because we read soooooooooo many great reviews and even or friend that lives on island said she heard good things. But it was a great night wrapping up our trip here!
