Delicious, delicious and inexpensive. We ate here on our first night in Kauai. Wonderful Hawaiian Plate. Their motto is gourmet on paper plates. The Polynesia Café is in Hanlei although there is one in Kappa. This particular café is outdoor seating which means bring BYOB. NO corkage charge. Don't you just love Hawaii? They also make delicious carrot cake and other delectable desserts. I highly recommend this place it is wonderful.

AWESOME FOOD, a must-go. Go there knowing that the food is served on paper plates and seating outside this small, open-air place is limited and the tables not so clean. You can have take-out if this bothers you. It's a totally casual place, and the food is outstanding! The meals are heartily portioned, but better than the meals are the desserts. I was full from dinner, so my husband ordered one dessert, and I planned on sampling only. After devouring his dessert with him, we ordered another to test! Go for anything chocolate - if they have their chocolate terrine, definitely try that - IT'S THE BEST DESSERT WE HAVE EVER HAD!

This place is billed as gourmet food on a paper plate and the definition fits. This is where I had the raw ahi (even though I had expressed that I would really need my fish cooked). I maintain that if I was blind and didn't know what I was eating I would have really enjoyed it. Very generous portions. Consider sharing an entree.
