Sample These Five-Star Reviews from TripAdvisor

I loved them all, from the Kalua pork at a food truck, an amazing gourmet pizza and hamburger, a dried fruit stand, and the finale at Tiki Aniki with a Mai Tai & Ribs. Thank you Susan & the wonderful folks at Tasting Kaua'i!

My husband and I did the North Shore tour with Susan, and had a fantastic time. This food tour is great for visitors, but learning about responsible practices and how our island can sustain itself is vital for Kauai's future.

If you are really into food and want to find the hidden gems, Tasting Kauai is the place to go. We made 6 stops and all were great. Baked goods, juice, saimin, Japanese American fusion, poke, appetizers, and deserts were all tasted.

Worth doing for sure! We learned so much about the food and history of the island and went away feeling like this was one of the best things we did on Kauai. The food was so delicious we will go back for more!

This was a lovely afternoon in the Poipu area, and the food was excellent. Our final stop at the Farmer's Market was very crowded, but the visit with Judy the pastry chef made it worthwhile.

It was really cool to meet the owners of the food stops and learn about their history and the place. The food itself was really good at each place. Also, it's fun to try these unexpectedly good spots.
