Great spot to sit by the ocean and sip on the best Mai Tai in Kauai. They have a farm-to-table approach for both lunch and dinner (closed 2-4).

My go to stop after a long flight. Their signature pressed local pineapple juice margarita is over the top amazing. Now 75% local and organic. Ahi tacos & the Carnitas enchilada stack are so good!

This place is always packed and it is quite large. A bar, a couple sushi counters, Teppanyaki tables. A local and tourist favorite... so good.
