    We were on vacation in Kauai. We came here for my wife's birthday. It did not disappoint. It may of been the best meal we have had. We both had fish that we incredible. The service was fantastic. The food and desserts were awesome. We set on the Lanai and it was great. We will absolutely come here again if we are able to get back to the island. This place is great for a romantic dinner!

    Hukilau is one of my favorite restaurants in Kauai. I eat there every summer when I visit the islands - it's always great.

    The tasting menu served during the first 45 minutes after opening was some of the best food we have had on Hawaii. It was a bit slow to come out but worth the wait.

    Fabulous restaurant with great food and service. Our waiter was perfect except he stood too close to us or the table (in our personal space) where it was awkward as we were either looking at his waist line or craning our necks to look upward at him.

    This is one of our favorite restaurants on Kauai. The view is pleasant but it is the food and service that are exceptional. We always reserve ahead of our vacation for outside patio dining. We've never been disappointed.
