We saved this for our last night b/c we are diehards for BBQ. It didn't meet our expectations. The combo plate was puny, the chix was 1/3 of a 1/2 of a breast.... and the corn bread was a small muffin. the bbq was moist, just not generous portions. She was nice to allow me to order a pulled pork... more

Group of three. One got the 1/2 rack of ribs and the other two split the chicken breast entree. It was literally 2 grilled chicken breasts with little to no seasoning and it was really quite dry. It was also one of the two options that weren't pork. I'm from the south and we have lots of BBQ joints here...... more

We've only been here for lunch - 2 or 3 times. The pulled pork barbecue sandwich is excellent, very big, my wife and I split one and get enough for lunch. Service is very friendly. Best of all, it has a wonderful, open-air, oceanfront setting, just a narrow grassy park separating the restaurant from the ocean. Just a gorgeous view... more

Having read the glowing reviews in Ultimate Kauai we went here with great expectations and were very disappointed. The food is awful. I had the mahi, mahi , my husband the pulled pork. They have a long way to go before they can call this barbecue. The mahi mahi was a tiny portion , the pork was all dried up... more

May 2009, my wife and I had lunch there. She ordered the pulled pork sandwich and I ordered the smoked chicken sandwich. We then traded half of our sandwiches. She liked my chicken better, and I liked her pork sandwich better. I have to say that both were great with all three choices of BBQ sauce; sweet, mild, and spicy.... more

Sorry I missed this place on our first 4 visits to Kauai. The food was very tasteful. Our waiter (Josh) was very friendly, but non-existent on refills. However, another waiter and a waitress was observant and offered. We weren't very hungry and 4 of us dined on 2 separate menu items. They offered additional plates without being asked to. I'm... more

We love Scotty's! We go here every time we're on Kauai. Delicious BBQ and amazing view! They get really busy at night. So go early or expect a wait. It's worth it, though. more
