The moment my husband and I landed, we wanted to get the vacay going by looking up where to eat…read more Based on the time we landed we noticed alot of places closes by 8pm.The Fish Express was close to where we were at and they were closing at 4. We were there around noon and it is amazing to see that most of their fish were gone, I knew that was a sign that this spot was gonna be good! The fish express offers ready to go foods, hot food, and also fresh fish like a fish market! My husband and I always just get the poke and this time we tried ahi shoyu poke, ahi maui onion poke, ahi spicy poke with crab, and sliced tako. They don't have a seating place everyone either ate it outside the store or in their car. The poke... cuts like butter! When it cuts like you know you picked a good spot! There's something about getting the first bite at the start of your vacation that kick starts the day, time, and the vacation. Getting the right eats makes a person remember that special place and since it was our first time in Kauai, finding The Fish Express and eating one of the best pokes really set the mood to our vacation and I can't wait to go back!

It was pretty high waves after a nearby tropical storm so that was fun to watch. The photo ops are incredible here. They have wonderful seating overlooking the water. Would be great to come here just for drinks. We started with an ahi sashimi appetizer. We pretty much get ahi sashimi at every restaurant in Hawaii. It was good. The hawaiian painkiller drink was nice. Not too strong. For entrees, I picked Kampachi which came with bok choy. Although the portion looked small, it was a good size. Very flavorful. I had a hard time picking between 3 fish entrees. This one worked out well. My wife had a shrimp farfalle pasta. She enjoyed it. When we went to order dessert, they brought us out a lava cake like dessert with happy anniversary written in chocolate on the plate. Complimentary and such a nice touch! It seems like they do pay attention on the reservation. The place was semi-busy but not packed. Bar looked huge. Great service as well.

An unforgettable dining experience in Kauai Hualani's was,…read morewithout a doubt, one of the finest dining experiences we had on the island of Kauai. From the moment you arrive, you know you're in for something special. Complimentary valet parking, breathtaking views of the ocean, beautifully manicured golf course, infinity pools, and even a distant lighthouse create an unforgettable setting before you even sit down. We started with the Lobster Tempura and the Grilled Octopus, and both were excellent. The cocktails were beautifully crafted and the perfect way to begin the evening. For our entrées, we ordered the Kampachi (the first fish on the menu) and the Filet Mignon. After sharing both dishes, my husband and I completely agreed--the fish was the clear winner. It was absolutely outstanding. Every element on the plate complemented the others perfectly, creating one of those dishes you remember long after dinner is over. The filet mignon was very good--perfectly cooked and flavorful--but if we returned, we would order fish again without hesitation. In fact, we'd probably try the other fresh fish option as well (I believe it was Opah). Dessert was the perfect ending to the meal. We enjoyed the warm chocolate cake and the Hawaiian-inspired banana split, both beautifully prepared and delicious. This is the kind of restaurant you choose when you want to celebrate a special occasion or simply treat yourself to an exceptional meal. The combination of stunning scenery, attentive service, creative cocktails, and outstanding cuisine makes it well worth the visit. It's easy to understand why Hualani's has earned such an outstanding reputation. This was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Kauai, and we can't wait to return. Highly recommended!

Didn't see Mrs. Oki, but a male and a female (latter is the cook I believe?) when I arrived. Pretty nice and soft spoken. Very hot inside. We ordered and stepped outside. We ordered 3 mini plates, and it was $60+. I know this is HI, but wow, that is costly! I thought portions for prices like that would be decent, but portions are pretty small. Local owner, so wanted to support, but I don't think it's worth the $$$. The chicken katsu was overly fried and dry. The mac salad was made of spaghetti noodles and not too bad. I'm not about over-indulgence, but this was a pretty expensive meal for what I got. The katsu comes with a side of ketchup, no katsu sauce. I'm OK with that since I don't use the sauce anyway.

My family had chicken katsu plate, chicken teriyaki plate and a grilled cheese. This is a totally family and kid friendly spot. Staff feels family run and very high quality service.

Several years ago we would buy HuliHuli chicken from a man who had built a large grill on the side of the road. It was really good, and we were disappointed when he retired. We heard about Richie, but the last two years could not find him. This year, success! Our first visit to the truck we got 2 Hull Huli chicken halves, so we could have it 2 nights, with leftovers for lunch. At first bite we almost lost our minds! Smoky, tasty, juicy chicken, even the breast was fabulous! Then we came up with a plan - to buy another 1/2 and freeze it and take it home so we have a good dinner the first night. It's ready to go!
