We had a very nice experience here, it feels like you are driving into another world. Would’ve been nice to come for lunch and see the full dramatic cliffside. Feels like the setting of White Lotus, had live music near the bar, very nice extensive menu. really good service, all around, very freshly prepared and very well executed high-end meal experience.

Postcard worthy View!! Enjoy an amazing menu against a picturesque backdrop of paradise is how we best can describe this restaurant. We had an amazing server named Kui who just made the off and on rainy day more pleasant. The Ribeye, Lobster Mac&Cheese, Filet, Chowder and Poke were mouthwatering from start to finish. Oh and the cocktails were an added bonus. 😋😋😋

This place lived up to my expectations of a resort-style restaurant. Nice, open-air ambiance overlooking the ocean and distant decommissioned light house. Our server was kind but did at times seem distracted by a table next to us. Not sure if they were regulars or just talkative, but we did have to wait on things we needed a few times because of it! But not terribly. The meal started off great with the ox tail dumplings! The honeycomb salad dish, while not outstanding, was good and a unique addition. My wife and I split the 14oz ribeye. It was miso marinated, I believe. It seemed to be of decent quality, but wasn't the most tender and flavorful steak I've ever tried. Also, not sure why they are marinating a dry-aged steak. You miss out on those beefy nuances when they're covered up with another flavor. Dessert was a pretty big let down. The warm peanut butter cup and the lilikoi cheesecake tasted more like desserts from the refrigerated section at Costco. Okay, but not great-especially for $16 a piece. Again, decent but not great. I would go back again with certain dishes in mind, but I would look at other local options first.

Beautiful location, food was delicious and staff friendly. Pricey but worth the experience. Difficult to get a taxi as most don't come, resorted to Uber to leave.

The food and service were excellent! The staff made it such a lovely experience. The sea bass was tender and perfect, and the sauce was so delicious. The sticky ribs were also incredible. I could not recommend this place more! Absolutely worth it.

Best Steak I’ve ever had! They serve you your steak on a hot stone and you cook it to your desired liking. Pictures and words don’t do it Justice! You should eat here when you visit Kauai !!

Hands down the best dinner we've had on the island so far. The oxtail dumplings had incredible flavor. The ribeye was served with the most delicious sauce and was by far the best steak we've had on the island. Even the espresso was the best we've had. Our server, Matt, gave us the best recommendations. Everything was perfect!

Beautiful location, fabulous food. On arrival we struggled to find any parking, an attendant then advised the only option is valet parking and to just pull up outside the restaurant. My only request to the establishment would be that next time you print your menus could you please note dairy free dishes? It helps me in deciding what I can eat, without my inclusion of guessing in the decision. A dairy free desert option would be super too without asking too much! :)

Everyone from the hostess to the waiters to the manager was very pleasant and made this a memorable evening for my wife and I. You'll probably want to dress up for this place- they deserve it, and you'll feel a bit silly if you show up in jeans and a tank top. The cocktails were delicious, the dumplings were to die for, the entrees were buttery and delectable. We were so moved that they gave us a free dessert for our anniversary. We would absolutely dine here again, everybody made us feel so welcome.
