We were blown away by the ambience, and the amazing food that was served. It was the best meal we have had since being on Kauai for the last week. We decided to share the caprese salad, Firecracker Shrimp appetizer and the filet mignon. They were all so delicious and cooked to perfection! Can’t forget to mention the special Old Fashioneds. Best ever!!

We had a pleasant experience at the restaurant when we were warmly greeted by hostess Evelyn who sat us earlier than our reservation time. She was patient and informative about the other dinner events there. The food was good with affordable prices. We enjoyed the open-air atmosphere, and the entertainment. We’ll be back!

Despite being a post-hurricane menu, the food was terrific. Service from Chelsea was top-notch. Drinks were amazing as always. We make it our goal to eat here as often as possible.

Best dinner we had in Kauai this trip! The mac crusted fish and the pork shank were incredible!!! They also made me a coconut martini that I couldn’t find anywhere else and had been craving. Loved the live music, the view, and the great service by Eric. I will definitely recommend this spot and come back next time.

Great service by very pleasant Cherine (sp?) She advised chicken Quesada and Potstickers and suggested that a salad would be too much. She was right on all counts. Cool, breezy, got table we wanted. Really cannot add anything but "we enjoyed."

We had drinks at the Sandbox bar the first night we stayed at 1 Hotel. The drinks were made perfecting we sat at the high top we had a great view of the sunset and the fire dancer that performed. Our server Zach from Nashville was very nice and accommodating he had good recommendations for drinks. The next day we sat on the beach at a cabana our server was Zach again he checked in on us frequently and worked hard throughout the day making sure all the guest were taken care of while he was training another server. We had seltzers and beers I also ordered fresh coconut water right out of the coconut. For dinner we ate at the Sandbox and Zach was our waiter I ordered the local fish with fresh asparagus and beans that were grown right on the premises and my husband ordered the pizza which they specialty made since it wasn’t on the menu. Everything tasted fresh and delicious. Our server Zack was wonderful courteous and attentive.

We were there for lunch and the sandwich I had was awesome! The meat was tender and I loved their waffle fries. It was our anniversary and they provided a wonderful cheesecake for dessert! Will definitely return!!
