    Dukes of Kauai was absolutely wonderful. Unlike the lovely Dukes of Oahu and Maui this Dukes is situated on a lovely bay looking out at the lighthouse. Very light and airy. The food was delicious as were their drinks. There were three of us dinning and we all enjoyed a different fresh fish meal and the famous Hula Pie. Mark was our waiter, and he was just an added bonus. We will love going back there again.

    Service was molasses drip slow for everything. Server couldn't even take the hint when asking for the bill at the same time as ordering dessert. Even holding the credit card folio standing on the table did not clue them in we had to leave. Some people don't want to sit around forever, would not come back.

    Found out this was the original Duke’s. Beautiful setting. Kind of tucked into a cliff, right on the water. Valet parking was really helpful. The food was delicious and the service was friendly and efficient. Would highly recommended for a nice casual evening.

    My wife and I had a fantastic brunch today. The Prime Rib and Eggs Benedict were my favorites. Multiple choices for any taste….salads, shrimp, macadamia nut pancakes, bacon, sausage, rice, potatoes and multiple pastries.

    The Sunday brunch ($50/person) food was really so so. The prime rib was quite plain and not flavorful. Couldn’t sit outside to enjoy the ocean view due to strong winds. Live music was decent.
