Table 53: You Dine, We Donate
RumFire Poipu Beach is proud to give back to the community that inspires us every day. For us, being a restaurant in Poipu Beach is as much about community as it is about the island we call home. Through our Table 53 program, all net food and beverage proceeds from the table are donated to a local charity each month. Guests who wish to participate are encouraged to make reservations in advance by calling 808-742-4786 and requesting Table 53. Gratuity is paid to the server, and taxes are remitted to the State of Hawaii. Since its launch in October 2012, Table 53 has raised over $620,000 for local charities. Mahalo for helping us make a difference, one meal at a time.
