About this restaurant

  • Great for scenic views
  • Great for outdoor dining
  • 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.

    Loved Hualani's! Server was great - energetic, friendly and seemed to really enjoy what he's doing which I found refreshing. Food was REALLY good. My wife had the fish and chips (fish was ono) and I had the ahi / avocado poke and it was both beautiful (presentation wise) and delicious. Oh and by the way the view from Hualani's is crazy pretty as it looks out over Nawiliwili Bay and the Ninini Point Lighthouse.

    What an amazing place! 10/10 on everything. My wife and I went on our anniversary. My wife said it was the best steak she's ever had, and we go to expensive steak houses. The seafood i had in the captains combo was cooked to perfection. Simply put, the experience was amazing.

    This place is hard to beat. The views are amazing to start, looking out over the ocean. The grounds are also beautiful with an infinity pool. Happy hour is great, you can make a whole meal with the wonderful menu. The bartenders and waitstaff are fun and attentive. The food was delicious and wine list is amazing. I highly recommend Hualani’s.

    We came here for dinner our last night on the island and it was absolutely amazing. Beautiful view and ambience. I had the Captains combo and my girlfriend had the mahi mahi and they were absolutely spectacular. Had the pain killer mixed drink which was perfect as well. Finished the meal off with the passion fruit cheese cake which was also amazing. Our server was spectacular and so were the other gentleman helping out. Amazing and super friendly Valet as well. Will definitely have to come back on our next trip.
