    Ordered the Dynamite Carb Cakes appetizer. They were excellent. For the entree we both ordered the Hawaiian Catch+. It was swordfish and it was very good. It comes with one scallop, one shrimp, and a lobster tail. Vegetables were mashed Molokai sweet potatoes, and broccolini. We thoroughly enjoyed the meal. For dessert we recommend the chocolate lava cake.

    So fun watching the Koi from our open window / outside table. Lovely setting. Food was very good- crusted Mahi Mahi with Macadamia sauce was delicious.

    Great experience at Tidepools last night. It can be difficult to get a reservation here if you’re not staying at the Hyatt so book early. Excellent food- steaks cooked to perfection and tasty ceasar salads. The malasadas for dessert were outstanding. Our server Rob made the evening even better! Thanks Rob and we’ll be back on our next visit to Kauai

    The ambiance was wonderful and the restaurant was very well laid out so as not to feel crowded. Service was just right - not intrusive but carefully solicitous. Having the koi in the pool next to the table was a delight! They willingly split our salads so we would not be overstuffed, and the rolls were an example of delicious Hawaiian sweet bread. All 4 of us agreed our entrees were excellent with the fish fresh and succulent. This was our best dinner on the island in at least 5 years!

    Our favorite restaurant on the south shore. Always classy and outstanding food. The people watching is half the fun, from the well off, to the party scene, to date nights, it's always fun! But not a cheap date!
