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.

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.

We had a fantastic dining experience at RumFire in Poipu. The standout dish of the night was the butterfish — perfectly cooked and full of rich, savory flavor. Our server, “World Traveler Greg,” elevated the evening with great recommendations, fun stories, and impeccable service. Be sure to save room for dessert — the pineapple sorbet with its chocolate surprise is the perfect way to finish the meal. A must-visit if you’re in the area.

Three of us had a light dinner at Bangkok Happy Bowl Bistro. We all had the spring rolls and two had the hot and sour soup. The foo was very good although the hot and sour soup lacked some of the intense flavor I have experienced in Thai restaurants in Northeast Florida where I live. Service was attentive and professional. Overall, an enjoyable experience.
