Where to Eat on Kauai

Part fish market, part plate-lunch counter on the way to the Kilauea Lighthouse. The legend is the ahi wrap — sautéed ahi in a spinach tortilla with brown rice, greens, and sesame island dressing — plus fresh poke, seared ahi plates, and fish tacos. Outdoor picnic tables.

Mediterranean food truck tucked into Ching Young Village in the heart of Hanalei. Gyros built your way (lamb, beef, chicken, falafel, or jackfruit) with organic feta and house tzatziki, Greek salads, and papas arrugadas. Cash only — and the truck can sell out, so check their Yelp before the drive.
