Experience one of the best restaurants on Kaua'i and enjoy farm-to-table oceanfront dining from the elegant yet relaxed setting at Hualani's. Here, oceanfront dining is influenced by the seasons. What's fresh at The Farm at Hōkūala inspires the farm-to-table menu, while our bar serves up well-balanced craft cocktails that complement the seasonality of the kitchen. Our culinary experience is inspired by a sense of place and driven by local farmers, as well as fresh-picked ingredients from our on-site organic farm. From the morning harvest and the daily catch, Hualani's shines a hyper-local spotlight on the bounty of the Garden Isle.

Our fifth meal at Hualani’s, 7 for dinner this time. As all our previous visits, excellent by every measure. From the superior wine list to the incredible birthday lava cake, flawless. Service was attentive and accommodating but not hovering. Very friendly. Shared appetizers of watermelon, goat cheese and beets, blackened scallops, arugula, goat cheese and honey comb, braised short-rib gyoza. All were excellent. Main courses were spectacular. Ribeye, filet, mahi, pasta, glazed pork ribs, sea bass. All perfectly executed. The Trefethen Cab was wonderful. Thank you for yet another great experience.

Gorgeous location for a romantic dinner or out for any special evening. The food was excellent along with a fine wine list. The farm to table freshness was well evident! The service was spot on and made us feel like it was a special day. We will definitely visit again!

Dinner was fabulous. Our waitress Daniell N. Was great. Made excellent alcohol free drink suggestions and provided friendly, professional service. Attentive but not intrusive or overbearing. Mahi mahi and duck dishes were phenomenal. Birthday dessert and cheesecake were delicious. Views were extraordinary. Can’t say enough about our dining experience but we look forward to returning soon!!!

Fabulous meal we had. Service was excellent and very attentive. Only downside was non-spectacular ambience and noise was so so loud - unfortunately just one group of six or so who dominated the restaurant. We had to ask to be seated in a back room and could still hear them but at least could have a nice evening.

Everything was fine EXCEPT the noise level was extremely loud. The chairs were wry from the rain ,we started exchanging them, and the hostess did nothing to help.
