Okay, I'm a coconut shrimp LOVER! I'm always on the hunt for the best out there and so far in all my travels this is THE place that I day dream about. I've tried a lot of their dishes and have never had a bad foodie experience there. Prices are fantastic, you get good fresh quality food and the sunset... More

we enjoyed several meals here and were fortunate to have beach-view tables each time. Almost all the seating is outside, but on a lanai, so covered. Friendly staff. Had to wait a little long for meals to arrive. we had great salads, burgers, and fish. We would eat there again. Happy hour prices are best!

5 Yummy coconut shrimp for $10, great nachos for $9 w/ beer & drink specials 3pm-5pm and after 8:30 pm too. View of beach & sunset. Book adventures in the shop downstairs and get 10% off food - See Sherrie, Director of Fun.

We ate here the first night we arrived because it was convenient and the beach view was great. Was pleasantly surprised based on reviews we had read. The food was fabulous, atmosphere was great, our server Falcon was wonderful. We hit happy hour so cocktails and appetizers were available at reduced rates. Loved this restaurant! Two days later, we asked... More

It seems Brennecke's is rated high only because it has a convenient location across from one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Aside from this, the food is sub-par with mediocre service & ambiance. We tried the $12.95 cheeseburger (which was really just a dry, grocery-store patty) and the $17.95 kalua pork tacos (2 tacos). Overpriced and unimpressive.... More

Although my shrimp dinner was great I had buyers' remorse after I tried my wife's fish and chip meal. When we went a second time we both had the fish and chips and everyone left happy! Apparently the fish is fresh local ono and it is delicious.

Definitely book a table looking out at the body surfers. We had great service and great food. The fish and chips are sooooo good. We will definitely return next time we are in Kauai!

Good sandwiches and appetizers. Little expensive but reasonable during happy hour. Nice location across from Poipu beach. Upstairs and most of the tables front the ocean.

Our first afternoon in Poipu Beach we stopped by for appetizers / happy hour. Food was very good as were the drinks. Pricey even during happy hour, but you might try it at least once if in the area.
