When you just want to enjoy beachfront views while dining on the most delicious food and drinks around, you cannot go wrong with a trip over to Brennecke’s Beach Broiler. At this popular South Shore Kauai eatery, you can grub on fine-dining quality fare in a truly chill setting. Their second-floor, open-air eatery sets the stage for a fantastic meal, while their decadent food and drinks come through in a big way.
Their menus change often to suit the day and time you come in, although they’re all filled with the best flavors around. If you come through on Thursday through Sunday from 9am to 1pm, for example, then brunch it is. Want to zip by on a Friday night? Well, get ready to see their menu full of sushi specials. When you’re browsing their lunch and dinner menus, keep a close eye on the listed times to ensure you can still order your favorites. If not, no worries. No matter what you pick, you’re bound to end up wholly impressed.
As you make your appetizer and entrée selections, keep dessert and after-dinner drinks in mind all along the way. Their desserts are well worth saving a bit of room in your belly, especially if you absolutely love chocolate. People come in from far and wide just for a taste of their Lava Cake, after all. This delightful dessert features flourless chocolate cake filled to the brim with warm chocolate ganache plus Lappert’s Vanilla Bean ice cream and a rich raspberry sauce.
If you’d like something a little different, consider their after-dinner cocktails instead. Made with bright local flavors, their cocktails promise to settle your belly in style while giving you a taste of sugary goodness. As it’s essentially cinnamon-macadamia nut coffee with a kick, the CinneMac Liquor Cappuccino is a definite fan favorite.

Ceviche Wonton Tacos

Blackened Ahi Sandwich
You haven’t truly enjoyed a fish sandwich until you’ve tried the Blackened Ahi Sandwich. To kick off this lunch and dinner favorite, they prepare the blackened ahi using the freshest fish around. Then, they put it on a bun with cabbage, namasu, and wasabi aioli to finish it off right.
Beyond Burger
When you simply want to keep meat out of the equation, you can go with the Beyond Burger to enjoy bold flavors in every bite.
