I love making a stop at the Driftwood Bar and Grille when staying at the Kauai Beach Resort.  This pool and oceanside bar is the perfect place to enjoy lunch, a cocktail or Happy Hour.  The bar looks out over a salt water pool with a white sand beach and the coast of Kauai.  Not a bad little beach shack in my book and the kind of place where you just want to order a cold beverage and kick back for awhile.  On this visit I ordered the Island Fish Sandwich ($13.50).  I asked the waitress what the Fresh Fish was and she said Mahi Mahi.  The sandwich comes with your choice of salad, chips or fries.  I went for the salad.  The Fish Sandwich and all of the other dishes arrived in bamboo baskets that are usually used to steam fish or Dim Sum.  I looked at the Fish Sandwich and said yum when I saw the fresh lettuce, tomato and onion.  Took one bite and my eyes rolled with pleasure.  The Mahi Mahi and vegetables were all so fresh.  Tasted like a fish version of an In n' Out Burger.  Hands down one of the best Fish Sandwiches ever on this blog.  My Wife went for the Fresh Island Fish Wrap ($13) and said it was more like a Lettuce Wrap.  All lettuce and no fish she said.  She took a bite of my Fish Sandwich and wished she had ordered it instead of the Wrap.  My Daughter ordered the Big Kahuna Burger ($14.25).  She ordered it Medium but the beef was pretty well cooked and dry.  This is a big burger at a big price.  Don't think it is worth any where near $14.
