    This comprehensive guide to the "special" restaurants and dining spots on the Island of Kauai is an essential for food enthusiasts, travel adventurers, and culinary vagabonds. Inside the authors take us on a tour of over 75 establishments ranging from posh formal dining venues to hole-in-the-walls. Each member of this personal A list gets a full page write-up loaded with information designed to empower the reader. Rounding things out enhancements appear covering interests like "Family Friendly" and "Old Haunts" with cultural background provided by "Island Cuisines" and "Hawaii Glossaries". Together this data rich collection covers the Kauai dining scene like nothing has ever done before.

    April 27, 2008: This is the most thoughtfully written restaurant review book I've seen in a long time, and it serves the Kauai visitor well. It's written in an unprentious, fun, and knowledgeable manner, making it a joy to read and utilize on the trip. We truly enjoyed using it as our sole dining guide, and if we spotted a place that wasn't reviewed in the book, we didn't bother with it, because the authors included only those restaurants that they felt from their research were worth including. Of the restaurants we visited, the reviews were spot-on - as a result, if we skipped a place that looked appealing but wasn't in the book, we didn't feel like we'd missed out on anything. The reviews cover several price ranges and food types, and the extras, like 'He Said, She Said, We Said', 'Island Cuisine,' and the glossary are delightful --as well as useful-- additions. This is the only restaurant guide you'll need for your trip to Kauai!

    April 18, 2008: These authors have done an excellent job of sorting the dining needs for you. They have written many guides for several years and they constantly keep you updated on the information. Every time I read one of their books I get the feeling that they are truly enjoying the dining themselves so I KNOW I would definitely have a pleasurable experience! I think they should be 'top-of-the-list' for travelers to the islands.
