I was in Kauai last September. These are my favorites:
Josslens in Poipu. You have got to go here. 
Island Taco. If your driving to Wiameia canyon, stop at island taco. YUM
Roys, always outstanding
Uncles shave ice which is in the same shopping center as Josslens.
DO NOT go to the taco truck in Kaluia(near poipu). Awful.
 Also the beach house is very good with some of the best views on the island, BUT it is way over priced. You pay a lot for that view and Josslens was far far better food.
One more tip, The Hyatt charges like $30 for two normal size cocktails, so buyer beware.
I just remembered another very good restaurant. Be sure to try Merrimans, also in the same shopping center as Josslens. Merrimans was featured on the food network recently because they were looking for an executive chef and they found one.
