Puakea Grill
About
Set on Kauai, Puakea Grill is a restaurant at 4150 Nuhou St in Lihue, HI 96766. The address places it in Lihue, the island's main town on the east coast, with Kapaa, Poipu, Princeville, Hanalei, Kilauea, Koloa and Waimea reachable on a day's drive.
The kitchen turns out grill plates in the style of a golf-course eatery, and the venue's own site at https://www.puakeagolf.com/puakea-grill/ carries its details. Diners have given Puakea Grill 4.4 out of 5 across 159 reviews, a solid figure from a steady stream of guests. Spam, rice and macaroni salad appear widely in Hawaiian home cooking and lunch plates, so expect those island staples alongside the grill.
Opening hours are not published, so the sensible approach is to plan around the standard lunch and dinner windows rather than a fixed timetable. English and Hawaiian are both official languages of Hawaii, and Hawaiian words appear widely in place names, so a few local terms help when asking for directions.
Hawaiian culture includes hula dance, oli chants and the voyaging traditions of Polynesian navigators, and some of that heritage is on show at island festivals. Hawaii was an independent kingdom before annexation by the United States in 1898, and became a state in 1959, a history that shapes how locals talk about the islands today.
