Went to Java Kai twice during our visit to Kauai because we enjoyed it that much. Their bagel…read moresandwiches were delicious and easily one of our favorite breakfast spots on the island. The hot mochas were also on point every time. There was always a long line whenever we went, which says a lot about how popular the place is. The sandwiches did take a little while to come out, but honestly they were worth the wait. Great food, great coffee, and a really good vibe overall. Highly recommended if you're in Kauai.

Perfect for a romantic sunset dinner!…read more The food was okay, but what keeps this rating at five stars were the views and the staff.

The site of day 4's lunch, Kauai Island Brewing in the Port Allen area of Eleele is the original…read morelocation of the popular microbrewery based in the island of Kauai. My wife and I specifically came to the area to sample their beers and try their food, and found the beer to good/great while the food was OK. It opens at 11 on weekdays, and we arrived soon after, so found street parking easily. We were some of the first customers, and our choice of inside seating. The building is two stories, with the upstairs being used as an arcade (classic 80's pinball machines). The large bar is the center of the downstairs, and they sell shop memorabilia as well. Tried a 4 sampler flight (no discount for flight, just sum of the 5 oz beers chosen). Their most popular is the Lilikoi, which we had just tried at a restaurant a couple days before, so we skipped that. Instead we got: Chupa lager (Mexican cerveza which was refreshing), Wheat (which was my least favorite...kinda flat/limp with little flavor), Alaka'I Stout (my favorite, creamy and almost chocolatey), and a Sour with calamansi (which my wife liked the best, I thought it tasted like a shandy). As for food, we got two entrees. My wife got the Kalua Pork Sandwich ($22): pretty much all pulled pork sandwiches are called Kalua in Hawaii, no matter how it is made. That being said, this version was OK with the fries being very good (similar to Five Guys fries, fried in peanut oil maybe). I had my favorite: Loco Moco ($22) which was well prepared, and the white rice was good. But the beef patty was mediocre (tasted like a standard preformed food service patty from frozen...it wouldn't have stood out in a burger). The one egg was cooked well and I really liked the homemade gravy. There is a 3% credit card surcharge, and Toast is the payment processor.

But man, for a lil' spot, Nourish Hanalei can get those orders out QUICK! How many employees they got in there???? I was impressed! My take: come here for the view first, and food second. But the food was lovely. Had the freshest toppings of any bowl we had on our 2-island trip. And the fruit isn't lathered in a sauce, to hide less-than-fresh taste. These felt like someone went into the jungle, sliced it up, and tossed it on our bowl. The ACai itself was suuuuper frozen, which logistically makes sense, for such a remote operation. But less tasty than other spots. Great stop. 100% worth a visit.
