    The restaurant ambience was so welcoming, with small rooms so every area felt intimate. Our server was very knowledgeable and explained the different menu items thoroughly so we knew what we would be getting. We both had the mixed seafood grill, which included fish, shrimp, scallop, and lobster - just amazing. Desserts were wonderful as well. Service was impeccable and unobtrusive. We will definitely come back the next time we’re in Kauai.

    The view of Poipu Beach as we walked in at sunset was incredible, and we were lucky enough to get a table by a window. Our server was very friendly and super good at her job. All the service was good - food and drinks were delivered, water was refilled, and dishes were whisked away, all without our even noticing most of the time. And the food was to die for. The seared scallop appetizer was perfect, and the catch of the day (mahimahi) was incredible: firm yet silky and soft, and done just right. Dessert was passionfruit creme brûlée, which again was amazing. What a lovely experience. Can’t wait to come back to Kauai so we can eat there again!
