Cozy restaurant. Make friends. My eggs, bacon, and rice, so yummy. Everyone was happy with their meal. Water cooler and cups available. Reasonably priced. Good portions.

I enjoy Hawaiian food but don't get a ton of it where I live so this was a welcome treat. From the outside this spot is very unassuming but the inside was bustling with people, a good sign of what's to come. The service was great, prices were low, and the food itself was fantastic. I had the ginger chicken with spam fried rice and a salad. Absolutely delicious!

Loved trying this spot out as I was in the area. They have good portions, and nice prices. The flavor was decently good. Wouldn’t travel “just to come” but would maybe eat again if I was nearby. Food was nice and hot I’ll admit! And came out promptly! Areas they could improve: keep napkins on table, QR code to scan for menu wasn’t working.

I've gotten catering from Kauai Family Restaurant twice and I can't recommend it enough. Generous portions, great quality, and the team always makes help suggestions and modifications to the orders when it's appropriate. Our event guests rave about the Spam Musubi especially, but you can't go wrong with anything on the menu.

Side quest for Hawaiian food is always comforting, and Kauai Family Restaurant is the spot for it. They’ve got all your Hawaiian favorites on the menu. I ordered a couple of the combos and some katsu—everything was solid. Some items were a bit on the salty side for my taste, but still enjoyable. It wasn’t too busy when I went, so the food came out pretty quick. The vibes inside really made you feel like you were in Hawaii. Definitely check their hours before you go, since they’re mostly open just for lunch and early afternoon.

Very nice little Hawaiian restaurant in the industrial area of South Seattle. The service is great. I had the Loco Moco and it was good. Big portions so choose wisely. Everything was good. The place is cosy but was packed, and people kept coming in. Luckily I showed up a little before noon so I did not wait too much, but a little still for the food. Looks like it's a local gem. Prices are really cool. I was happy to try Hawaiian food for the first time.

Their food and people are so great. It was nice and relaxing environment. I would say the stark difference between there and the pastry side is fresh and clean. Please take a deep clean paint and refill because the walls are dirty and frames broke and dusty. There was no soap in bathroom and so i hope you have a sanitation station in kitchen for germs
