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.

The sushi was out of this world, highly recommend the dynamite roll it was 10000/10. One of the best meals my wife and I had while visiting Kauai. We also enjoyed the 14 oz ribeye, some truffle fries, and delciois cocktails (expresso martini and island breeze). Everything was FANTASTIC!!

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!

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 !

Good food with a robust selection of menu items. We went with a group of 5, each with different food preferences (including teens and a 10 year old) and everyone found something they liked. Quality of ingredients was solid and presentation was nice. It was a bit odd that we had a reservation, there were several open tables available and yet when we checked in for the reservation (2 minutes early) they told us to wait so they could set a table for us. Our waiter was friendly and was definitely hustling. We'd happily eat here again.
