Ben and I have been blessed to visit Kauai 5 times since our 2004 honeymoon PacCup.
In 2012 I emailed a list of my favorite restaurants and sights to a few of the waiting friends. I'm reporting them here. Maybe other frequent visitors will add to this list!
Bar Acuda (Old School Market, end closest to the bay): http://www.restaurantbaracuda.com
Dark, quiet lanai featuring really tasty tapas, fresh unusual cocktails. Kinda pricey, but it's so tasty that we share a couple of plates and leave very happy. Reserve for a group. We're in. Open daily at 5:30. Owned by a former Bay Area sailor.
kilauea fish market, 4270 Kilauea Rd Ste F, Kilauea (on the way to the Lighthouse): around the back of this little "mall," with outside seating and poke to go. Very fresh fish, fish tacos, other wonders. Open M-Sat 11-8.
Kilauea Bakery & Pau Hana Pizza, 2484 Keneke St Kilauea ((in the Kong Lung Center across from the Fish Market): Come for the gluten-free Danish, stay for the great pizza. Yum. You can order a pizza to go and enjoy it while your racer finishes. Just like I did when George Lythcott's ENTIRE family surprised him at the beach in 2010. http://kilaueabakery.wordpress.com
CJ's Steak & Fish House, Princeville Shopping Center: You'll love it or hate it. It's got a salad bar, great cocktails, kinda standard fish and steak. And prime rib. And baked potatoes. We typically order prime rib and take rolls home to make sandwiches for several days. I always buy a souvenir glass, too. http://www.cjssteak.com/mobile/
