Our stunning ocean-front location with spectacular sunsets makes the Beach House an iconic destination on Kauai's south shore that has won the Hale 'Aina Award for "Best Restaurant - Kauai" for 20+ years. Our philosophy at the Beach House is simple - take aloha, blend it with fresh and high-quality ingredients, and add an ocean view to deliver a handcrafted, Hawaiian experience. Executive Chef Marshall Blanchard makes the most of local ingredients by sourcing our fish directly from island fisherman and our beef from neighboring ranches. We incorporate fresh and local produce throughout our menu, highlighting Hawai'i farms and the resources that surround Kauai. Reservations are highly recommended for a dining room table in our open-air restaurant. We also offer lounge seating on our lawn, where the full menu and full service are available on a first-come-first-serve basis. Please check in with the bar host for lawn seating.

We really enjoyed our evening at Keoki's Paradise. The ambiance is warm and inviting. Our server was attentive and the food was great. I had the seafood risotto which was cooked perfectly, and my husband had the prime rib which was also delicious. Our dining experience was topped with the unexpected bonus of live entertainment from the Tahitian dance performers (Tumoana) who perform every other week at the establishment. Would definitely recommend checking this place out....Save room for dessert!

We had a great night at the Beach House! We got seated in just a couple of minutes. Our waitress was really great! She explained the menu and answered all our questions. We had a drink to start and order the pot stickers for an appetizer. I ordered the sear tuna and my wife order the filet. Both were excellent. we decided to get a creme brûlée for dessert and it was great too. I didn't even mention the fantastic sunset view we had too! As we were eating, we got to watch the sun set and it was beautiful to eat and watch.

From the moment the valet took our vehicle, we were taken care of immediately and attentively, not only with their service but with their smiles as well. at every point of our evening here we were greeting with welcoming smiles. our seating hostess was quick and attentive and our waitress was top notch! She was so helpful with the menu and took care of our every need. From the drinks and appetizers to the dessert, every dish was not only delicious, but beautiful! This was a simple date night for my wife and I while on the island, but the service and quality of the staff, food, and atmosphere at Red Salt elevated this to a truly memorable experience!
