The chicken katsu was perfectly crispy and super crunchy, and it was even better dipped in the sauce. The kalbi was incredibly tender and juicy with an amazing flavor that had me wanting more. The pasta was also delicious and honestly the perfect side to complete the combo. Definitely one of the best meals we've had while in Kauai! Highly recommend giving Smiley's a try!

We got the chicken and shrimp combo plate both with chili sauce. It was incredible. The chicken was crunchy and moist. The shrimp was smothered in garlic sauce.

My husband ordered the Kenji Burger, which was juicy, flavorful, and piled high with toppings - caramelized onions, cheddar cheese, tomato and arugula. I chose the Misoyako Fish Bowl.

Bead & Deli is one of those places you'll want to come back to again and again. From the moment you…read morewalk in, the atmosphere is welcoming, the staff is genuinely friendly, and everything feels fresh and thoughtfully prepared. The lobster roll is hands down the star of the menu. The lobster is incredibly fresh, tender, and generously portioned without being overpowered by mayo or unnecessary fillers. Every bite lets the quality of the seafood shine, and it's served on a perfectly toasted, buttery roll that adds just the right amount of crunch and flavor. It's easily one of the best lobster rolls I've had. If you're anywhere nearby, do yourself a favor and order the lobster roll--you won't be disappointed. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu, but the lobster roll will always be hard to pass up! The only downfall is that it did take a really long time.

Less "wet" from mayo, more on a thicker side-- superb! The braised short rib was melt in your mouth with a great semi glaze and fantastic crust on the meat. It is a sports bar- so the atmosphere is quite lively and loud. Do not expect a quiet dinner. But the patio is less loud.

We started with the Furikake Fries, which were packed with flavor and the perfect way to kick off the meal. For burgers, we ordered the Hapa Burger and the Kenji Burger, and both were outstanding.

The food was so good that we ended up ordering a Lobster Burrito as a second round just so we could try more of the menu. It was a great decision and did not disappoint.
