Althought the setting is a bit strange when you first walk in dont be scared. In a pool tennis club. We went for happy hour and dinner . Happy hour had 3 dollor pint drafts/local/nice and 4 drink specials. Dinner reasonable and good food. Service great with a nice atmosphere after dark. More

We had eaten here twice two years ago and enjoyed it very much. This time our food was bland. Even worse our server was very annoying. Won't go back. More

We recently spent a week on Kauai with our extended family - grandparents, parents, and kids - and found ourselves eating at Casablanca twice. It is our favorite restaurant in Poipu - the food is wonderful, the atmosphere relaxed and inviting, and (for Poipu) the prices are reasonable. In particular, the tapas are the way to go here. The lamb... More

Great food, but the atmosphere lacked. We also went on a windy day and they had all the curtains drawn. The food was amazing. Probably the best we had on the island, and we went to a lot of upscale restaurnats. The price was right as well. More

We had sunday brunch here. The breakfast burrito was average. I did really like my marscapone french toast. The service was okay. We expected more based on the reviews. More

We dined at Casablanca on Valentine's Day and had a most pleasant experience. We had reservations and were glad we did - it was a busy evening. We both had the 'catch of the day' and enjoyed a bottle of wine with dinner. The view is not as nice as other local restaurants (Beach House, Brennecke's) and looks over tennis... More
