Best meal we had so far on the island. Service was exceptional. Food quality and taste was 1st class. We loved everything.

One of the best restaurants I have ever eaten at, and I've eaten at many restaurants in 34 years. First off, the customer service is excellent! The servers are very nice and knowledgeable about each dish. The ambiance is perfect, with light music, soft lighting, and unique restaurant style. The food is absolutely incredible. 10/10. My favorite was the cucumber salad. 2nd was the filet mignon. 3rd is the Papas Ajo! Food is excellent. I would like to come back tomorrow and try 3 more dishes.

Great food, great service. We went with a group of 6 so tried most of the menu, splitting all dishes, which was a great way to do it. Higher price point than most dinners we'll have on the island but unique dishes in a beautiful atmosphere made the splurge worth it for us.

Excellent choice for a nice dinner on Kauai. Reservations get booked out in advance pretty far, but you can sign up to be notified if anything opens up. Another option is to arrive and queue up prior to opening (@5:30 currently) for space available seating. A little pricey, but worth it.

What a wonderful experience! We had a really special night at Bar Acuda. From the service to the cocktails, food and atmosphere it was a great evening. Be aware that you'll need to order 2-3 items per person, and it's a bit pricey, but worth it, in my opinion. It's also a romantic spot for couples.

This was our favorite meal after 10 days in Kauai! The food was incredible. Each dish had the perfect mix of sauce, flavor, and texture. We ordered 5 menu items and 2 desserts. The honeycomb was delicious. Our favorite dish were the scallops. They were cooked perfectly and super interesting on top of garlic mashed potatoes. The server was fun and knew the menu well, and provided helpful information on the offerings. We got there at 5pm to try and get in as a walk-in when they open at 5:30 and had no problems. I'd highly suggest!

We love Bar Acuda! Enjoyed our second meal there tonight after a visit back in 2019. We were not able to secure a reservation - they were all gone within hours of the day I was able to reserve a table. So, we waited 1 hour and 30 minutes - but so worth it! Great service, food, drinks, and ambience! They always seem to serve the honeycomb, so be sure to give that a try! Thank you, Bar Acuda team, for a great experience!

I recommend the Hawaiian fish, scallops, lamb riblettes and lilikoi cheesecake. Unfortunately their braised short rib disappointed - husband says it was cooked too long (B's kitchen does it much better). They had yummy cheese pizzas for my kids which was nice.

We waited for a table at the chefs counter. It was fun to order a cocktail, see meals being prepared here, and talk to the chefs. We LOVED the scallops and the cucumber salad. We also got the pizza which was pretty good. The honeycomb goat cheese plate was okay- bread was a bit stale and cold and the apples were bland, honeycomb and cheese were good. We’d love to come back and try other dishes. We sat at the bar and bartenders were friendly and provided excellent service!

One of our favorite meals in Kauai!!! We didn't have a reservation and got to the restaurant at 5:20pm to try to snag bar seating. By 5:30pm there was a long line behind us. In the bar area, they have about 3 high tops for 2 people each and space for about 8 people at the bar. Our waitress was lovely. We loved every single dish. Totally lived up to the hype. Highlights were the scallops, lamb ribs, and fish. Passion fruit cheesecake was to die for.
