Our group was very satisfied with the menu options. There was an excellent variety of fresh local fish, sushi, sashimi, and local prime ribeye, not to mention the delicious dessert selections. The staff was exceptionally friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive, and each meal was beautifully presented. I would highly recommend The Ocean House to anyone visiting Kauai. The atmosphere was open-air, clean, and inviting, creating the perfect setting for a memorable dining experience.

Dinner was Fantastic! The chefs menu was amazing. All courses were fresh and the flavors complex. We did the sake pairing that went perfectly with each course. The chef was very friendly and created a good atmosphere; you could tell he was dedicated to his craft.

The view of Poipu Beach as we walked in at sunset was incredible, and we were lucky enough to get a table by a window. Our server was very friendly and super good at her job. All the service was good - food and drinks were delivered, water was refilled, and dishes were whisked away, all without our even noticing most of the time. And the food was to die for. The seared scallop appetizer was perfect, and the catch of the day (mahimahi) was incredible: firm yet silky and soft, and done just right. Dessert was passionfruit creme brûlée, which again was amazing. What a lovely experience. Can’t wait to come back to Kauai so we can eat there again!

We made reservations earlier that day but was not required for a weekday. We were seated quickly and our order was taken within minutes. Food was delicious. I ordered my noodle dish (Pad Kee Mao) extra spicy and was up to my standard. Highly recommend this restaurant.
