    Food was okay, drinks tasted watered down and food wasn’t as flavorful as it should be with the fresh ingredients listed.

    So my wife ordered the bbq guava chicken. The chicken was a leg/thigh piece and was the driest piece of chicken we have ever tried. It was so dry, she practically choked on it. We immediately sent it back. I ordered the barbecue ribs. They were not bad. Of course the best part was when our server delivered our food. Some of the ribs fell off the plate and right into her hand.. 🤦🏻‍♂️ For appetizer, we had the coconut shrimp, which was very good, and the poke, which also was good. Sad to say we will not be returning, you’re paying more for the ambience. I probably should have realized when my friend who lives on the island said they went there for lunch a couple months back, and halfway through their chicken sandwich it was raw.

    Good ambience, average food. My panko crusted fish was not a "crust," rather it appeared it'd been dredged hours earlier and cooked on low heat, creating a wet crust. The sauce, rice, and carrots were good though. My children loved their keiki chicken fingers, though I found the portion to be small. My husband's ribs were fine, but nothing to write home about. Would I go again? Maybe for drinks and appetizers, but overall nah. Brennicke's was better.

    We had a fantastic experience all the way around!! We try to visit every year when we come to Kauai. We brought our granddaughter’s this time to share this experience with them and Keoki’s did not disappoint. 🥰

    Service was super slow. I understand things move a little slower on the Islands, but it took just over an hour to finally get our burger and fish and chips. Otherwise, the food and drinks were tasty.

    Highly recommend this as one of the best restaurants in Kauai! The risotto and ravioli were absolutely amazing, especially in such a perfect Hawaiian atmosphere. The hula pie for dessert was delicious too. I was so satisfied—I’ll definitely be coming back next time!

    This was our second visit to Keoki's and another really nice experience. A reservation makes for no wait. Our server Marcus was very social and attentive. The filet and BBQ chicken were cooked perfectly 👌 The hula pie is a shareable delight.
