Kalapaki Joe's

We had dinner here at the end of a 7 night stay in Lihue, and the food was surprisingly good.  We both had the fresh fish of the day - broiled Walu (escolar) - which was pretty tasty.  Our slightly different dishes both came with a nice big fresh green salad.  Mine came with onion rings and deep fried shrimp, hers came with rice.

Service was reasonably good. My first drink (ginger ale) came out a bit watery - I think they were out of syrup - and they replaced it no problem.  

As far as atmosphere - we were there on a Friday night - they had a local guy playing guitar and singing a mix of pop songs (steve miller, america, etc.) and some hawaiian favorites.  Multiple TVs featuring MMA and ESPN, so all in all a decent time.  I'd go there again.

Great Happy Hour prices.. wings only 25 cents ea??  Though the wings were a great deal, they  were just average.

Average food. Fries with everything unless you want to up charge to salad or something else.  

So unremarkable in fact, I left this review to fill out when I log in on my PC to fill out later that I can't recall anything about this place.  Guess that is good and bad.
