I stopped by today on the recommendation of a friend. Being I have L&L right next to my office and love their offerings I figured I would give Kauai a chance. My only regret is not finding/trying this place sooner. L&L is good but Kauai was out of this world.
I ordered the Kauai chicken and their homemade waffle fries to go. On the drive home my car smelled so amazing that I had to open up the bag and at least try a fry or two. I was excited to find that they are cut thin (the way I like my fries) and crispy. On my first bite the flavor exploded and I was immediately hooked. I must have had about half the order by time I pulled up in front of my house.
I grabbed the food and walked inside and instead of my normal ritual of changing out of work clothes getting comfortable, I immediately opened up the chicken and took a bite. The meat fell off the bone and just like their fries the flavors were going crazy in my mouth.
The portions were huge, which I have hard all hawaiian restaurants serve huge portions. I am excited to have the other halves as leftovers as soon as possible.
The service was great and the food was spectacular. It is definitely worth a trip if you are looking for great homestyle cooked hawaiian food.
