Our stunning ocean-front location with spectacular sunsets makes the Beach House an iconic destination on Kauai's south shore that has won the Hale 'Aina Award for "Best Restaurant - Kauai" for 20+ years. Our philosophy at the Beach House is simple - take aloha, blend it with fresh and high-quality ingredients, and add an ocean view to deliver a handcrafted, Hawaiian experience. Executive Chef Marshall Blanchard makes the most of local ingredients by sourcing our fish directly from island fisherman and our beef from neighboring ranches. We incorporate fresh and local produce throughout our menu, highlighting Hawai'i farms and the resources that surround Kauai. Reservations are highly recommended for a dining room table in our open-air restaurant. We also offer lounge seating on our lawn, where the full menu and full service are available on a first-come-first-serve basis. Please check in with the bar host for lawn seating.

    Our meal and service was exceptional. We tried to purchase your keoki coasters in merchandise and could not get anyone to come over and sell them to us. This was unfortunate because we loved out meal and dining experience. Our waitress was excellent!

    Our waiter, Keenan, provided excellent service and was delightful and gracious. We loved everything we ordered, from pupus, to salad bar, entrées and Hula Pie! Yummo! The view of Kalapaki Bay is always beautiful and the live music was the chef’s kiss, topping off the ambiance to our lovely evening. Highly recommend! Mahalo nui loa!

    Absolutely delicious from start to finish! The before dinner cocktails were fantastic highly recommend anything made with their mezcal! The appetizers featured some of the most delicious ravioli I’ve ever tasted and the filet was just an absolute chefs kiss which was a relief for me because of my fish allergy. The deserts were good but not the highlight however the desert drinks were on point !! This is definitely an instant family classic and we can’t wait to come back !
