As we strolled into town to try another restaurant, we could smell, and visibly see the sheer amount of people waiting to be sat down, or get their order from the side window. This place was POPPIN'. I ordered online as I sat in the restaurant next door, knowing it could take some time. You can BYO pizza, but I went with custom pizza that spoke to me from the menu. The Garlicky White Devil. This pizza did not disappoint. Even after having a meal next door, I still ate 2 slices. It was light, thin, crispy, and the flavor smacked you upside the head. Why does arugula go so well with pizza? I Don't know, it just does. This is a must next time we come in. I would love to actually sit down, order some 'Za and get some brews to experience the sit down service.

We ordered a Supreme but without all the meat. The pizza was cooked perfectly- the veggies were not scratched or over done. This is traditional crust! Very delicious and in good time. I do consider myself as a pizza person, as I have plenty of Puzza Hut years under my belt. We did ask for extra sauce- it did not seem like that happened- but the comprehensive pizza was a win.

Toppings with Onion, green pepper, red pepper, pepperoni and black olives.

Very popular spot in Koloa for pizza. Pizza was very good. Being from NY, most pizzas I try on Kauai are disappointing. Their crust was crispy and topping very good. I would return again. Koloa Pizza Kitchen and Portofinos were the 2 best pizzas on Kauai.

We did pick up from this location super cute spot in the middle of Kaloa. The indoor was also super cute. I would come back here to dine in as well. The entire building smell just phenomenal. We did pick up for two pizzas. We did a white pizza and pepperoni with hot honey. The side dressing like ranch do cost $1.50 but this pizza was fantastic. Amazing pizza there's a reason there is usually a line waiting to pick up. Super cute spot would definitely come back. Fantastic food very delicious.

Amazing pie

Absolutely the BEST pizza ever!! We actually had it two nights in a row it was so fabulous can't wait to go back to Kauai to have it aga

Easily the best service we have around here. They were fast, attentive, and to the point. Calamari was a good opener (I like that they have a hint of spiciness too). We did half supreme and half margarita pizza...as a heavy meat eater, I hate to say that the Margherita part was so much better...but it was. Would come back any day! Maybe we'll do a full Margherita next time.

Fabulous pizza. We built our own and it was a great size so not even upset with it being 31 bucks. Got the mixed greens salad which was fine, nothing special. Great service! Great casual place to go.

This is a great option for lunch or dinner. Not the best pizza I've ever had, but definitely some of the best food on the island. The service was phenomenal and it's a cute place to eat lunch.

I feel like this hot spot is so popular because of the location and all the pizza lovers who want to change it up from the delish seafood options. We came for dinner and hospitality was above par, we were seated immediately, and food came out very fast. The kids were provided coloring pages to keep them busy while we waited. We love pineapple on our pizza so adding that was a nice touch, the dough was soft and chewy. Everything we ordered didn't disappoint and even though they do get busy with telephone orders coming through, walk-in's they do not make you feel rushed at all. Thank you for making it a memorable time for our family.

Ordered pizza to go and it was such an easy and snooty process. The pizza was ready right when they said and it was fresh and delicious. It's a perfect little location and definitely will be back!

This place is great! Pizza is on point!! Great thin crust and perfect toppings. Highly recommend! Atmosphere is good too!

I was walking around Koloa looking for a place to eat when the smell from Koloa Pizza pulled me in -- and I'm glad it did. The place has a relaxed, laid-back vibe that fits perfectly with the town. They have a rotating craft beer menu (and honestly, beer and pizza just belong together). Our upbeat, friendly server helped me pick one, and she definitely steered me in the right direction. We started with a Caesar salad and then shared the Southside Supreme Pizza. The salad was fresh, though a little heavy on the lemon juice for my taste. When the pizza arrived, I figured we'd be taking some home -- but that didn't happen. We finished the whole thing. The pizza was delicious. The crust was thin and light, perfect for two people to share. The sauce-to-topping ratio was spot on, and nothing slid off when you picked up a slice -- always a good sign. When our server came to clear the empty pan, I joked, "We didn't like that at all," and she laughed, "Do you want to try again?" I did find the place a little pricey but Kauai is touristy and prices tend to be higher than what I am accustomed to. As we left, I noticed people waiting for tables -- and it was easy to see why. Great pizza, cold beer, and friendly service make this spot a winner.

If I had to do things differently on my vacation to Kauai it would have been to eat here more than once. Koloa pizza is easy and casual and the perfect place to dine after a long day of exploring. The pizza and salads are really good too. Pizza, salad, tables for 5+

Sensational food and service to match. You almost feel like you're eating in someone's home. We…read moretend to dine later in the evening which was good in that it wasn't crowded in the restaurant but bad in that they'd already sold out in a couple items. I ended up choosing the vongole e gamberetti which was a nice blend of fresh seafood and spaghetti in a zesty broth. However, m'lady got the spaghetti bolognese and I'm telling you: this is the best, most flavorful, freshest bolognese I've ever tasted. I only got 2 bites and had to play it cool because, well, I made the choice I did. I was effusive in my praise afterwards and everyone who worked there concurred and said I was just the latest to discover this incredible dish! If you enjoy this dish, trust me: it's better than any other kind you've had in the past. After the meal, we met another waiter and chatted with him about the restaurant, recipes, and this neighborhood. Just as friendly as everyone else. Make it a point to stop here and get that bolognese!

Come early, leave full…read more After many friends recommended Puka dogs, we couldn't wait to come here! We arrived around 1 to get in line, and waited about 45 minutes. Luckily the line was shaded so it wasn't terrible. We finally got our turn to go inside and wait in line. The ambiance was super welcoming and relaxing. When we got to the front of the line, we ordered 3 hot dogs to share between the 2 of us (definitely could have just had 2) and each got a lemonade. The lemonade was tasty and refreshing and the Puka dogs were AMAZING. We got the mild, spicy and lava spice level sauces. Honestly the lava spice wasn't super spicy, the server described it as hot Cheetos. The different relish's were amazing. I loved the coconut and pineapple best. If I lived here I'd be in trouble because I'd come back many times!

Puka Dog is one of those "only in Hawaii" experiences that you simply have to try!…read moreYes, it's more expensive than a regular hot dog (around $12), but this is so much more than just grabbing lunch--it's part of the Kauai experience. The concept is unique and fun. Instead of a traditional bun, the bread is toasted from the inside, creating a warm pocket that is filled with your choice of tropical fruit relish, Hawaiian-style mustard, and sauces before the sausage is inserted. We chose the Polish sausage, and it was delicious--juicy, flavorful, and paired perfectly with the sweet and savory toppings. They also make an excellent fresh lemonade, which was the perfect complement on a warm Kauai morning. Inside, you'll also find coffee, banana bread, and a selection of other drinks and snacks. We arrived around 10:30 a.m., and the line was very manageable. I'm sure it gets much longer around lunchtime, but the staff has the process down to a science. Everything moves quickly, and it's obvious they're very efficient. Is it a gourmet meal? No. Is it a fun, uniquely Kauai experience that's worth trying at least once? Absolutely! If you're visiting Poʻipū Beach, don't miss Puka Dog. It's a fun local tradition, the food is tasty, the service is fast, and it's one of those places you'll remember long after your vacation is over. Highly recommended!

We've been coming to Kauai for years and have dined at many of the island's best restaurants, but…read moreMerriman's is still our absolute favorite. In our opinion, it has the best food on the island. Every meal is beautifully prepared, incredibly fresh, and consistently outstanding, which is why it's a must-visit every time we're here...actually we come multiple times.  One of the biggest reasons we return is Mandy. She is, without question, the best bartender on Kauai. Her cocktails are exceptional and, more importantly, remarkably consistent. Whether it's our first visit of the trip or our last, every drink is perfectly crafted and tastes exactly the way it should. That level of consistency is rare and speaks to the pride she takes in her work. Beyond making amazing drinks, Mandy has a genuine warmth and aloha spirit that makes every guest feel welcome. She's friendly, attentive, knowledgeable, and somehow always seems to know exactly what you need before you have to ask. She remembers her guests, offers wonderful recommendations, and makes every visit feel special. Outstanding food is what first brought us to Merriman's, but Mandy is one of the biggest reasons we come back year after year. She is an incredible ambassador for Merriman's and a true asset to the team. Mahalo, Mandy! We can't wait to see you again on our next trip to Kauai. Simon and Heather

Best meal of the trip. That seared ahi with jasmine garlic rice is something I'll go back home…read moredreaming about. It was a perfect sear (didn't taste wasabi but the shoyu flavor sear is to die for), complementary flavors of the rice and perfectly seasoned wok bok slaw. The wagyu tenderloin and Mac nut crusted fish were also so, so delicious. Honestly, I'd be happy to eat any of these three entrees. The tako escargot was beyond over cooked, however the flavors were exceptional. I'd order it again and give it another try. Tastes just like authentic French escargot, and make sure to dip the provided bread into all that delicious butter. We ended the night with the chocolate purse and it was so light, but still so fulfilling. This location kicks mauis locations butt in food! Server was great and knew lots of fun facts about the Merriman restaurants. They were very accommodating with my baby. Thanks for the best meal of our trip, Merrimans!

=== THE CUTEST. Funnest market we went to. Say hi to G and have lunch there on their front porch!…read more=== We had seen Warehouse 3540 in Lawai on our trips to West Kauai, and after stopping there (also a really great stop but that's another review) walked back to Lawai Market. Super glad we did! Lawai Market has tons of house-made baked goods, a kicking deli section, incredible bread, smoothies, local goods (mostly food kinds), interesting alcohol/spirits, just tons of fun stuff. Counter folks were super friendly, G was especially friendly and helpful, offering recommendations, helping us out, talking story with us, and making us feel at home. Specific thoughts: ++ House-made s'mores bar. Huge portion. Five of us shared one. Topped with toasted marshmallow, then fudge-y brownie, then this incredible crust which seemed like graham cracker shortbread - never had a crust like that. Almost impossible to cut through because it's so wonderfully thick. It literally stays on the knife you use to saw through it. But oh so good. Each bite lasts a long time as you make your way through the layers. + They had more than a dozen other pastries, again, all house-made fresh every day. G says the tres leches cake (beautiful and floating in the cream mixture) and the brownie parfaits are crowd favs. ++ Curried chicken salad. Supreme comfort food but with strong flavors of curry (they don't mess around), raisins, and all sorts of other textures. FILLING - our group of five couldn't eat more than half of the small container and we loved it. ++ Egg salad. Punchier than most egg salads with lots of strong dill. Tended to like the chicken salad more but dug into this when I needed a break from the curry. + Spicy poke. Good and fresh. Personally like the spicy poke from The Musubi Truck better, but this was still solid. Always love the creaminess if the aioli. + Purple power smoothie. You can tell there's something healthy in there - not like your normal straight up sweet smoothie. (I think it's kale.) But this really grew on me. ++ Focaccia. Oh man. Salt crystals on top, great texture to the bread. Our group are bread connoisseurs and they loved this. We went back for a second loaf because we devoured the first one. ++ They have small sizes of everything in their deli which makes getting a selection of a bunch of things for your group easy. We literally sat out there and walked back into the store three or four times to browse and get more items. And walked out with more and more each time. Sitting on their front porch is great too. Yes, the main road goes right by there but lush trees and Kauai greenery abounds on the other side of the road which makes the whole space awesome to hang in. Make this stop - you won't regret it.

Love this little market!…read more They have a small grocery selection as well as hot food and baked goods. Also açaí bowls, smoothies, and coffee. I ordered soft serve with their chocolate haupia flavor and it was amazing. So fresh and creamy and flavorful!
