Got there when they opened. No wait and only two people ahead of us in line. I like how toasty the Puka bun is and the polish dog was cooked to perfection. We got the half sweet lemonade and it didn’t disappoint either. We walked across the street and had our Puka dogs at the beach park. If you buy one of their shirts and wear it on your next visits, you get a free lemonade EVERY time. The service was friendly and efficient, which is appreciated for a busy spot like this one. It’s a must try when in Kaua’i!

Went to find a diet coke and beer and ended up coming out with Delicious hot dogs with good sausage, really nice banana chutney. To my surprise my big idol Bourdain had been there. We enjoyed in front of the turtles. Highly advice tp realize that you dont need the hot dog line for the drinks like diet coke and beer, water, snacks, Sushi and Poke they have inside.

We waited a little over an hour in line, the dogs were good but if I’m being honest, I don’t think it was worth the wait time. The contrast of flavor between the savory dog and fruit relish is nice- a bit too wet and saucy for my preference, the bun gets soggy and the sauce pools to the bottom.

YOU HAVE TO EAT HERE! I dream of these dang hot dogs, and this is coming from someone who doesn’t really like hot dogs at all!! I have forever been changed by this place because it’s just that good. I was scared to try out the relishes and whatnot because I’m not usually a very adventurous eater, but let me say to you: DO NOT BE BASIC! Try something new and exciting!! I got papaya relish and the lilikoi mustard–I know it sounds crazy but it was so good we had to go back a second time on our week long trip on Kauai!

Again – I’m not usually adventurous, I typically have 2 hot dogs all year, and I hate mustard. But the combo is JUST SO GOOD! You have to try it.

While you’re there, you need to get yourself a lilikoi lemonade!!! It’s so delicious!!

There isn’t any seating available and the wait can get a lil long, but it is so so very worth it. You can just take your food across the street and eat it on the beach. Can you imagine a more perfect moment?!

Small place to pick up great hot dogs. Coconut relish is delightful
Crowded
Hard to find parking. Plenty of employee parking though.
Awesome location, grab your hot dog & lemonade & head on over to the beach! You may see some turtles too!

We had to try the famous puka dog on our trip to Hawaii! Be prepared to wait in line. The dog was called a Polish sausage but I would call it a hot dog.
Great concept, awesome sauces, but way too much bread (the meat to bun ratio is off), and the actual dog was not very tasty. We didn’t hate them but were a tad disappointed after all the hype. I had the original mild lemon garlic sauce and coconut relish which was excellent. No mustard. My husband did the jalapeno sauce, mango relish, and a mustard. Check them out if you are in the area, but don’t expect too much.
A few tweaks like a thinner bun & a better tasting sausage and these puka dogs could be phenomenal! The fresh squeezed lemonade was lovely, we chose the 1/2 sugar option. So good!

At the time of this review, a 4.4-star is insane. This is definitely a 5-star! I mean come on, it’s probably the most anticipated food in Kauai.

It gets very busy, and that’s an understatement. I stood in line for an hour until I got the precious doggy-dogs, but it was worth it.

I’d recommend the Polish Sausage, Hot or Lava sauce, Pineapple Fried relish, and the Hawaiian mustard. Slap that sweet and spicy glizzy in the mouth, then chill on the beach, and you’re golden. Imagine In-N-Out, but with hot dogs, same experience in terms of busyness and quality.

Highly recommend.

Went here twice during the 2 visits we made to the beach. Awesome small shop with some delicious food. Love the variety of options to customize for dogs. Lemonade was nice and sweet and even offer lower sugar options. First tried shaved ice with ice cream here and have to say I will always go with that option whenever available.

Depending on the time of day and if weekend or weekday, I’d say plan to wait in a line. Our weekday visit wasn’t too bad but the day after Christmas, the line was past the building. Still, worth the wait and was out of the sun around lunch time. That also goes for parking. With it being by the beach, good chance there might not be much available.

Unique and so freakin good. The hot dogs are inserted into Hawaiian sweet bread. The sauces add to the flavor. We had to wait in line but it was worth it. This is a must if visiting Kauai. Added bonus: in the same space they also have Shaved Ice. We had the Poipu Sunset with macadamia nut ice cream.

This Hawaiian dog experience delivers on every promise. It makes. Completely customizable hot dogs, veggie dogs, sweet and regular relishes, and everything purely Hawaiian available for a hot dog eating experience. I highly recommend this
