  • One thing I highly recommend is to acquire a Kaua'i guidebook of some sort before you go on vacation. There are some very expensive restaurants on Kaua'i. Some earn their weight in gold...but, others aren't that great for the price. My best suggestion is to read reviews online and check out guidebooks if you want a special dining experience. If you want to stay cost-effective, check out the many local grinds that the island has to offer. Refer to my restaurants page for good info on some of these.

    At Least Do This: If you do want the higher end restaurant experience, one thing you MUST do is make reservations ahead of time....and this usually means 2-3 weeks ahead of time...not 2-3 hours ahead of time...especially if you want special, romantic seating.
    Alternative: Try the local eats for a great experience that won't blast your wallet!
