We were a long way from Kountry Kitchen in Kapaa (best breakfast on Kauai, btw) and needed a place for breakfast. A lifeguard recommended Joe's On The Green - and it IS on the green at one of Poipu's golf courses. REALLY GOOD! We started with "Joemosas" (a Mimosa using guava juice instead of OJ with a decent champagne) then... More

Enjoyed sitting on the patio having a Corona and Cheeseburger; very pretty golf course and nice atmosphere. They have live Hawaiian music in the late afternoon, but we were not able to stay for that.

I don't golf, but enjoyed eating here with beautiful view of course, open-air dining. Recommend the early-bird breakfast. The pancake was fluffy and huge- delicious. The eggs were good. My husband had the loco moco, which he liked. They are generous with the coffee and water refills. Service a bit slow, and we had to ask our server for the... More

Looks out over the putting green and tee box. Open air restaurant with a great lunch menu. We enjoyed our meal at our pace without feeling rushed by the staff. They were pleasant, attentive and friendly.

The time to go to Joe's is either breakfast or lunch. I prefer lunch on a day when the wind isn't too brisk so I can enjoy the ocean view from beneath an umbrella on the patio. This is essentially a golfers spot and reflects the relaxed style of post game eating and drinking. I like the Reuben with coleslaw... More

Okay so you are traveling to Hawaii and with the time change are up super early. It is hard to find a breakfast joint open and especially in Poipu. We were staying 13 miles away and trying to escape the high prices at the Marriott by finding a place in Poipu. We could or find anything open so we finally... More

I asked several locals where to eat a good yet fairly inexpensive breakfast in Poipu and each one said Joe's on the Green. We finally made it over and were really happy. It's not a fancy restaurant - more like an outdoor café overlooking the golf course. The Loco Moco was delicious - two fried eggs over a ground beef... More

It has been one of our favorite breakfast spots but this time every one of the staff members we encountered seemed like they were tired of dealing with tourists. Then the breakfast arrived and the rice and meat were barely luke warm. We probably won't return.

This was a good place for breakfast. Very friendly. Good service. I really enjoyed the banana macadamia nut pancakes! Generous portions and affordable. The ambiance was 'Okay' Metal tables outside with a view of the putting green. We would go back for breakfast or lunch.

The restaurant needs a refreshing. Compared to other restaurants, it is a bit dated and run down. We had the mac and banana pancakes. Given that we only eat pancakes once a year we were really hoping for greatness. They were good but not great. Butter was frozen and syrup was room temp. No lilikoi syrup offered as advertised in...
