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.

    Excellent lunch & a fantastic view. I had the macadamia nut crusted mahi mahi and it was delicious. My husband had the fresh fish blackened sandwich and enjoyed it. The service was good, the food was great but the view was amazing. We would definitely recommend going there for lunch. The valet parking was easy and convenient.

    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.
