Sam Choy’s Kai Lanai was renamed to Sunset Kai Lanai after Sam Choy sold his stake in the restaurant in Fall 2023. They offer a variety of typical Hawaiian dishes such as Poke Bowls, Teriyaki Beef and Chicken, Garlic Shrimp, Beef and Duck Stew… Their lanai offers unparalleled views of the ocean in the Keauhou Bay area.
The food we had wasn’t bad, but lacked the punch of flavors to land a four or five star rating. Slim pickens for vegetarian diners: the only vegetarian options on the menu are edamame and dessert. Our recommendation: go there to enjoy a cocktail during sunset and then go somewhere else for dinner.
