About this restaurant

  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Great for scenic views
  • Good for special occasions
Experience one of the best restaurants on Kaua'i and enjoy farm-to-table oceanfront dining from the elegant yet relaxed setting at Hualani's. Here, oceanfront dining is influenced by the seasons. What's fresh at The Farm at Hōkūala inspires the farm-to-table menu, while our bar serves up well-balanced craft cocktails that complement the seasonality of the kitchen. Our culinary experience is inspired by a sense of place and driven by local farmers, as well as fresh-picked ingredients from our on-site organic farm. From the morning harvest and the daily catch, Hualani's shines a hyper-local spotlight on the bounty of the Garden Isle.

    The deep fried whole fish is an experience in itself. I loved the crunchy poke bowl and the seared scallops are absolutely to die for.

    Beautiful location, wonderful service. The only down was that a few of the ribs were overdone and “chewy”. The remaining and sauce were excellent though. The Kampachi was incredible. I appreciated that the gluten free options were clearly marked and the were plenty of choices. Planning to return each time we’re on Kauai!

    Need more variety of food. We went for the chicken dish on the online menu but they don’t even offer it so I had a $15 bread appetizer. The live music and view were great.
