We also loved the flavored teas drinks ( Thai Ice Tea, Iced Sweet Matcha Green Tea, and a iced raspberry lemonade). Service is an excellent one-man show. Food was prepared perfectly and we left no crumbs. Ambiance are outdoor picnic tables.

Amazing amazing amazing!…read more Wished we could have come back to this place. Very fresh poke and lots of flavors. Great side options.

The acai bowl place as poppin', I'll definitely have to come back and try it. They also sold juice shots from Kauai Juice Co and mason jars with overnight oats in all different flavors. We opted to get the PB and banana one, excited to give it a try. They sell tons of local products and meats. Unfortunately no local Kaua'i eggs sold here, go to Hoku market for that. They also sell Gina's banana bread for $8.50 near the register, they are huge portions and she doesn't skimp on the nuts, very tasty!! Next to the poke, they also have a food warmer stocked with to-go hot breakfast bentos as well as musubi. Wish I knew that earlier during my trip!

It's always the unassuming places that have the best stuff. I got the da dragon bowl this time and it was delicious, everything you want in an acai bowl.

Picnic tables in grassy area across the street but lots of flying insects. Bathrooms are a block away in a park. There are definitely better places to grab a bite.

I can't believe this was the first time I've had food from this place. I would definitely come back…read moreagain, but WiFi's beat the crowd. Ordered a grilled fish plate with a green salad, instead of the potato mac salad. Food was very tasty, except for the rice. Frankly that the only reason why I wouldn't rate it 5 stars. Hopefully, the next time, the rice will be better. Other than that, I would recommend this place for sure. I'm looking forward to going back.

Overloaded Fish Tacos, buried in an avalanche of slaw and heavy, cold, salsa-like(?) tomato chunks…read more One of the few disappointments of our trip. Heard this spot was great. Probably is? Next time, I'll get the poke, which is supposed to be good. Fish Tacos just seemed like a thing to get on Kauai. The 'well done' ahi was spicy & flavorful. A blackened taste, which I love. Had to scoop off a ton of toppings to find it, but once I did, it was yummy. The other fish, was pretty bland. We did nearly screw-up our order, so I appreciate the frantic girl in charge, not getting mad at us and adjusting things for a last-minute fix.

*** Great store to grab food *** *** Part of ABC Store…read moreFamily *** Sueoka Market has all your small market needs. Grab some food like spam musubi which was our fave to eat for your hikes or the beach. They have bentos and a variety of sweet and salty items but don't go too late as they do run out. Since they are part of the ABC Store family, you save your receipts to get a free gift when you spend a certain amount of money. We went to several markets but this one was our go to. They also carry everything else like souvenirs, water shoes, etc.

Didn't realize how many Asian food options available (spices, sauce, noodles, cookies ) etc…read more We went for some specific items, most we found, and then found some other taste treats too. ABC stores bought them out about 7 yrs ago, so save your receipts for "gifts". We did check out the "shack" outside the entrance to the market to partake in their lunch options. We both bought their beef and broccoli lunch specials ($12). I requested to have double rice instead of the dreaded Mac salad. After waiting almost 30 minutes for our lunch- I received Mac salad instead of my double rice. Although overall a decent deal- the beef was tough, it had ok flavors- but to be honest, I've had better B&B a home (Dallas). Oh well- will try something else another time for a 2nd chance.

Wow. What a gem of a place we spontaneously stumbled into. We must have arrived at a great (and…read morelucky) time because there was only one person ahead of us, and we got our food relatively fast. We ordered the beer battered shrimp, garlic shrimp, and cajun shrimp, and all three exceeded expectations. For the price, I was genuinely shocked by the quantity given. I came in expecting to order more, but it was very plentiful and well-priced. My only feedback is that I wished the cajun shrimp had a bit more of a kick. The extra heat was there, but I found myself wanting just a little more. Medium spice would have probably been my sweet spot. No notes on the garlic shrimp though, as it delivered exactly as described. That garlic and olive oil combination? Yum. The beer battered shrimp, however, was surprisingly good. I didn't expect to like it as much as I did. It was simple, yet perfect. Think Long John Silver's fried shrimp, but better, done right, and insanely good. Here's a fun fact: we actually only ordered two plates the first time, loved it so much that we went back and ordered another. Yes, it was that good. As I'm typing this review back at home, I'm already salivating thinking about going back for another bite. Overall, this place was phenomenal and we'd return in a heartbeat. I'm aware it tends to get busy, and we definitely got lucky with our timing. Note: the food is great, but I personally wouldn't wait in a long line for it. That said, if there are only one or two people ahead of you, absolutely swing by. And beyond the food, the staff, from the cashier to everyone in the back, were a total delight and made the whole experience feel warm and homey.

It was our last day in Kauai, and didn't want to spend our time at the airport, waiting for our…read moreredeye flight. So decided to go to Costco to see if their optical department could tighten my Costco glasses before heading back to the mainland. The optical department closes earlier than the store itself, so we ended up wandering around. We intentionally went there on the last day after our luggage had been packed, thinking it would prevent us from buying things to bring back. But there were two things that we don't see on the mainland, that were of good price: 1.5 Coffee beans from Molokai Estate Coffee (100% from Molokai, and which my wife confirmed later was very good) and a Ube cream Liquor from the Philippines, that went great with the said coffee. Both fit in our checked bags and made it home safe. It wasn't too crowded because it was close to closing and was of large size, including self checkout lanes. Another good visit to Costco.
