Hamura's is famous for serving lip-smacking saimin for a long time now. The U-shaped counters attract tourists to the specialty and no holiday in Kauai is complete without sampling something at Hamura. Take your pick from skewers of chicken or beef, wholesome noodles with eggs, vegetables, or seafood, and enjoy whilst sitting on wooden stools. Hamura's was recently awarded the James Beard Award for authentic, ethnic food; so don't think twice.

“Should experience at least once”

“Delicious food, but ambivalent service and very weak facilities.”

 by  appreciategoodfood  on  2009-02-19

This little place is somewhat tough to rate. If I were to base my rating solely upon the taste of the food, which was awesome, I'd give it a 5....

“Favorite Meal in Kauai”
