- JJoyceSacramento / Sacramento Valley •8 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoWe love Eating House. We had our usual pot stickers appetizer, butter fish entree and chocolate soufflé for desert. They were all delicious as usual. Make sure to make reservations.More infoEating House 1849 - KauaiPrice: Expensive• Hawaii Regional Cuisine• Koloa•4.6
- KKevinVIPCincinnati / Dayton •94 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoThis is the best place to view the sunset so get there early for a drink and a spot on the lawn. It attracts a crowd so be prepared for the hunt for a parking spot! We came to this restaurant 40 years ago and now I remember why I remember! The drinks, service, and food were outstanding. The menu is somewhat limited but I suppose that’s why everything is expertly prepared and delivered piping hot to the table! Our server was so helpful and friendly in describing the dishes. To top it off we shared a coconut crème brûlée. A must. There is a respectable wine list both by the glass and bottle. If we lived here, it would be a favorite spot!More infoBeach House Restaurant- KauaiPrice: Very Expensive• Hawaii Regional Cuisine• Poipu•4.6
- JJimVancouver / British Columbia •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoBeach front table waiting for us as requested. Welcome birthday glass of champagne when we were seated. Very relaxed ambience. We weren't rushed at all. Food was great - Taro chips to start, then salad with beef short rib for mains. All very delicious, beef melted in your mouth. We have eaten here every time we come to Kauai for over 10 years and this restaurant never disappoints. A bonus was an incredible whale show just offshore right in front of the restaurant.More infoOasis on the BeachPrice: Expensive• Farm-to-table• Kapaa•4.7
