Overall, 5 stars but the late night parking situation was inconvenient. There’s a TINY lot in the back (go under the restaurant), and the lot across the street says no parking after 6pm. Thankfully, found a street spot not too far, but still far from a cross walk (if jaywalking isn’t your thing). STRONGLY recommend making recommendations because it was packed. Service was really great, and the food was REALLY good. Wagyu steak was so good, and the nachos were delicious too. Drink selection was solid as well. Can only imagine what the view is like during the day.

The positive reviews are not misplaced, this was one of my favorite places I ate for my entire stay in Hawaii. The view and fantastic food make for a really special combo. My large family tried a wide variety of dishes and we all loved it!

Really enjoyed our meal here. Drinks were yummy and super strong. Like really strong. Parking can be a drag but the food was delicious and our server Abby was a great. Ahi nachos a must and the boar sausage was such a great dish. Would definitely come again when I’m back on the island

Torn with this rating. The food was great but the service was abysmal. We were seated at the ledge, which is considered the bar area? Took forever to get any type of acknowledgement from our waiter. We saw at least 4-5 other tables that sat down after us and get their food before we did.
Restaurant had great views of the ocean, albeit we were there at 8:15. Luckily the moon was out and lit up the ocean.

This came highly recommended from our Airbnb hostess and she did not steer us wrong! The restaurant is smaller and parking can be difficult so reservations may be required, we were able to get in as a couple on a Saturday night.
The ocean front view is really spectacular. If it’s windy you may want to bring a light jacket because it can get a bit chilly. We ordered the fried cauliflower appetizer on the recommendation of our server and it was phenomenal! They add capers and Parmesan with lemon to really make a great app.
My boyfriend ordered the fish and chips and really liked it, especially the fries. I had the special (I wish I could remember the name of the fish) and it was phenomenal. Seriously some of the best fish I’ve ever had in my life. It was cooked just right and was so buttery it melted in my mouth! The service was excellent and even the table water tasted good! Definitely will be back again during our time in Kauai!

The decor and the ocean view are enough to get you in the door, but the quality of the food will keep you coming back. The ahi nachos are off the hook, and the wild boar app is so tasty and hearty. The cocktails are some of our favorite creations we tried while on our trip. Definitely worth a visit. Might want reservations.

We made reservations earlier in the week for 430pm on a Saturday for 2 people. Arrived and were seated right away. We ordered a Mai Tai and strawberry margarita for drinks and they brought water and foccacia bread right away. The foccacia was so soft and still warm. We ordered the waygu beef sliders and sea salt fries for Appetizers. The sliders were delicious and fries were hot, crispy, and salty! We both ordered the parmsan crusted island fish. That night the fish was ono. It was delicious..my first time having ono. The asparagus was cooked perfectly and the mashed potatoes were great. We didn’t have room for dessert. There isn’t much parking..only a few spots. We parked in the lot across the street. The view is amazing. Would definitely come back but recommend making reservations. It was quite full even a half hour after opening. When I made my reservation earlier in the week, there were only a few days/times available.

Ate here this week to celebrate our 25 year wedding anniversary and service and food were awesome! Jami, our sever, was great and gave us some awesome recommendations. Ate Ono fish and chips (first time ever eating Ono) and LOVED it! I would have gave this place 5 stars had my fries been cooked in fresh oil, unfortunately they cooked it in old oil and didn’t taste fresh. Outside of that, everything else was great!

We got perfect seats with ocean views. The menu had Waygu sliders,loaded Belgium fries, and they were OK. You’re paying for views and great wait staff. Parking is best across the street. Be careful when crossing the street.

Beautiful beachfront location. Great service! Food is fresh, locally sourced, and delicious. Definitely try the Parmesan Crusted Cauliflower Appetizer. Be sure you make reservations to get a table on the edge of the balcony for a better view. Parking is crowded and challenging – park on the street out front or in the back.
