    This is our fourth trip to Kauai and the first time visiting this restaurant and the plantation grounds. By far after a week here on the island, this was our best meal hands-down. The Crudo appetizer is absolutely phenomenal and the best we've ever had anywhere.  The fresh catch of the day entrée was equally phenomenal as were the craft cocktails we had. We sat at an outside table looking out to the plantation grounds, which are beautiful and I recommend outside seating if you can get it. This restaurant was a complete surprise to us so I am hoping this review will entice some of you to put this on your list as this will be a definite stop for us going forward every time we visit the island.
