Hawaii Regional Cuisine
Our stunning ocean-front location with spectacular sunsets makes the Beach House an iconic destination on Kauai's south shore that has won the Hale 'Aina Award for "Best Restaurant - Kauai" for 18 years running!

Our philosophy at the Beach House is simple - take some good old-fashioned Hawaiian hospitality, blend it with a Pacific Rim food experience and add an outstanding view to deliver an experience that delights all the senses. Executive Chef Marshall Blanchard makes the most of local ingredients by sourcing our fish directly from island fisherman and our beef from neighboring ranches. We incorporate fresh and local produce throughout our menu, highlighting Hawai'i farms and the resources that surround Kauai.

Reservations are highly recommended for a dining room table in our open-air restaurant. We also offer lounge seating on our lawn, where the full menu and full service are available on a first-come-first-serve basis. Please check in with the bar host for lawn seating.

    The view was amazing the noise was horrible we had a table in the bar area. The furniture was very dated and my view had a lot of junk on the ground nice ocean view. Food was good my steak was not cooked and the waiter gave us 2 desserts . I am a concierge at a major hotel and would not recommend. Nice for on island if you want lots of noise . The staff was excellent!

    When we first arrived, our table wasn’t ready for the first 15 minutes, so we were left waiting. Then we finally got sat down, but after another 30 minutes, our order still hadn’t been taken, so we decided to walk out. Definitely not the ‘fine dining’ experience promised..

    This place was recommended to us once we got to the island and it was phenomenal. We were told the Mai Tais were some of the best on the island and they did not disappoint. Our server, Seth was also incredible. He was able to give amazing recommendations and made the overall evening unforgettable. Come for the food, stay for the views.

    Very good restaurant, but the menu needs more descriptions of what is in the food. For instance I got pasta, and luckily the waiter asked if I like spicy food, so he knew to get it for me without chili flakes when I said no, but chili flakes wasn’t even in the description on the menu.

    Pass. Buy a cocktail. Sit on the lawn. Head to a food truck. SAVE YOUR MONEY! Food was average and skimped on some key ingredients (raviolis were the exception). There was a light shining directly on our table and therefore there were about 15-20 little black bugs on the wall, in our beverages and a mayfly looking bug on my plate. I just needed to finish and get out of the place and left my husband there to meet me at the car. I typically would say something but I was so agitated that I had to leave. We called after our meal and asked to talk to the “manager”. When he came on the line he was very unprofessional and said, HELLO, HELLO… to which we asked if he was the manager and he said yes. We explained the situation to the “manager” Tom who listened and said, thanks for the feedback. And then got off the phone quickly as he got on. There was not an apology, nor an offer of how to make it better, gift card or anything. Having worked in the service industry for years, this is beyond terrible service. We were so excited to celebrate our 5yr anniversary at the beach house since we are big fans of monkey pod on Maui. They not only ruined that dinner but have lost a customer and one who will make it known how the team “values” their guests.

    The menu has shrunk over the years. The dishes however have quiet ingenuity in the flavors. The taro ravioli was to die for. The Wasabi fish was excellent. The seared ahi was delicious. The service was excellent. It was 20% more than last year.

    Food was really good. Our server, Ana, was great! The views are stunning. However, there was a wedding during our dinner that really slowed down the bar. Took a long time to get the drinks. No parking and valet was understaffed with the wedding. Great place to go but the place needs to separate wedding and dining service.

    I thought that their prices were very high and the variety of the menu was quite limited. Food was served unexpectedly fast - almost as if the dish had been prepared in advance like a fast food restaurant - waiting for an order for it. Felt a bit rushed.

    Service was very good, waiter attentive and let us take our time . Watching the surfers out the windowI was the best. Food was good but not over the top. We came early as that was the only time available and upon leaving we saw people sitting outside on the grassy area watching the sunset with appetizers and drinks. I would much rather have done that than eat at 4:45!

    We had a 3:30 reservation. It was perfect we got to pick the best seat with a view of the surfers. The afternoon sun wasn't beating on us. It was quite and private. Staff and service were of the highest quality. Very friendly and helpful. The lobster bisk was $23 and worth every penny! Next time I will add on a half of lobster tail and make a feast of it! Everything was amazing, and I love the updates to the interior of the restaurant. I can't wait to go back.
