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.

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.

Gorgeous location for a romantic dinner or out for any special evening. The food was excellent along with a fine wine list. The farm to table freshness was well evident! The service was spot on and made us feel like it was a special day. We will definitely visit again!

We really enjoyed our evening at Keoki's Paradise. The ambiance is warm and inviting. Our server was attentive and the food was great. I had the seafood risotto which was cooked perfectly, and my husband had the prime rib which was also delicious. Our dining experience was topped with the unexpected bonus of live entertainment from the Tahitian dance performers (Tumoana) who perform every other week at the establishment. Would definitely recommend checking this place out....Save room for dessert!

We had a great night at the Beach House! We got seated in just a couple of minutes. Our waitress was really great! She explained the menu and answered all our questions. We had a drink to start and order the pot stickers for an appetizer. I ordered the sear tuna and my wife order the filet. Both were excellent. we decided to get a creme brûlée for dessert and it was great too. I didn't even mention the fantastic sunset view we had too! As we were eating, we got to watch the sun set and it was beautiful to eat and watch.
