Kokee Lodge Restaurant
What the experts agree on
Kokee Lodge is Kauai's only dining option at 4,000 feet, serving hearty local specialties like Portuguese bean soup and homemade tropical pies—a must-stop for canyon hikers seeking warming comfort food.
“The hearty Portuguese bean soup, a house specialty, is a delicious way to warm up. The luscious lilikoi (passionfruit), guava chiffon, and coconut pies are home-made.”

"It would be inexcusable to drive all the way up to Waimea Canyon or Kokee State Park and not schedule a meal here—at least if you order one of its hearty, local-fave specialties." Full review
