“Tom is a stand up guy. Personable, and informative. I walked in with a Bostonian "Hey, ahh, what's the deal with this that and the other thing?" Kind of questioning and he gave me the answers I was looking for. Gave me a big fat bowl of pulled pork and rice to boot. It was worth every penny and I'll likely make it a regular stop. Good people, good food, no complaints.“

“Best Chinese Restaurant on entire Big Island! And I'm Chinese American from NYC! I don't do Buffet because it's not fresh, might cost less but full of MSG. I recommend ordering fresh cooked, directly from Kitchen. Specify your dietary peculiarities. For ex. I have Diabeties Melitus 2 thus I ask for less sugar, and no Monosodium Glutomate which causes me to feel ill. When you specify, and dining there, the staff and Proprietors appreciate generous amount of Tips! Thank you!“

“The food that we had, was everything that was expected! Fantastic service with decent pricing! I will come back next time OM here!“

“This was a great place to eat. The food tasted amazing (definitely certified ono aka delicious) and very filling. The staff was friendly and the service was relatively quick. All of the ingredients were fresh. It was very close to the ocean and local shops, and there was a bathroom inside (which was an extra bonus if you've been out and about). I would definitely recommend it to others!“

“Seiji’s is the place you go if you know what it means to have really good sushi. His contacts for amazingly flavorful and deliciously fresh fish are among the best I have tasted. Seiji and his wife, Chie are truly delightful. Conversation that boasts an intimate family feel in their restaurant. Highly worth finding the time for a reservation!“

“Visiting Teshimas from O'ahu in Mei, one of the highlights of my trip was the beautiful hospitality from Teshima's ohana member serving us. She was beautiful inside and out. Ono food too!“

“Good ambience outdoor seating with a great view. Service is also quick and folks behind the counter are friendly and helpful.Vegetarian options: Able to customize oatmeal by using vegan milk (oat or almond) and add blueberries and strawberries to the hot oatmeal. Same for latte.“

“Outstanding service and food. I appreciate the staggered reservations for the one-on-one service and recommendations! The food was amazing and I wish I could try the whole menu! Dessert was definitely the best part- the lilikoi mousse- phenom!“

“We love coming to the Fish Hopper. Affordable and yummy food with a great view. Every time we come to Kona, we love to stop in. Breakfast Benedict’s are our favorite. Don’t skip on their hearty dessert menu! Can’t beat the view, watching whales jump in the distance as we speak.“

“Had Valentine’s Day dinner there tonight ….. Scallops with beet risotto BEST THING I HAVE EVER EATEN. ❣️ BRAVO“

“Super friendly staff! Everything was so fresh and the wraps were huge. Very quick and convenient. The flavors were great! Chipotle ranch had a great little kick. Love this place!!“

“The croissant is like in France, no kidding. I also loved the sourdough seed bread. My banana bread is better, but I liked that they used spelt in theirs. They open to the public 1 day a week, Wednesday at 2:00. Be late and you go hungry! Now I have to keep track of the day of week…“

“WORTH PULLING OVER FOR. Absolutely out of this world, flavorful, seemingly endless menu combinations of authentic Jamaican food straight from the heart. Had curry potatoes, pumpkin corn bread, and fried plantains. All three were moist, and consistency was THERE. wish I was hungry enough to try everything. 12 out of 10Parking: Gas station lot, find a spot, park right outside the pop up.“

“Good pizza easy to get to with parking available. We normally go to the Black Rock Pizza in Captain Cook, and it is some of the best pizza I have found on the island. I saw that they opened up in Kailua-Kona right off Ali'i, so we gave it a try. The pizza is very good, not at all disappointing. I do favor the Captain Cook location maybe because of the ambiance and the view. I am not a big beer drinker but Captain Cook offers beer,wine and hard liquor whole currently the Kailua'Koba location does not offer alcohol. But the pizza is very good. The staff and service is great. They are on top of your need while there.“

“The food is awesome the owner is friendly the view is amazing ❤️“

“Love the variety of curries here (most Thai restaurants have only green, yellow and red.) My husband and I enjoy the Masssaman curry- a deep and sweet flavor with potatoes and onions and peanuts. We tried the Panang Curry today, reminds of Thom Kha soup because of those fragrant lime leaves (see pic). Will try local fruit curries next time.Thom Kha soup here is okay (the Royal Thai in Keauhou Shopping mall is much more flavorful and more generous with meat portion. Also, the Thom Kha in Waimea at Parker Ranch mall best overall on island in our opinion on soup, just FYI.)The atmosphere is clean, sweet staff, nice decor. Would recommend curries here for sure. Oh, and the "wingers" (little chicken wings fried perfectly and seasoned tastefully) were excellent here. We tried the chicken satay last time, also good, but we are best connoisseurs of Thom Kha, heh.Expect to pay around $20 per curry (unless lunch weekday special ) We appreciate ability to upgrade to sticky rice instead of jasmine here at Krua, also. Bit of an upcharge ($2) but worth it for the texture- almost like dessert for us. (Yah, yah we know it ain't as nutritious but desserts rarely are.) Overall, great restaurant to try, within easy walking distance to Kailua Pier.Wheelchair accessibility: Kinda accessible, stairs to front entrance, and another entrance ramp (minimum incline) on other side which is good, but! There is always somebody parked in ramp exit path to parking area north side and the parking stop curbs on west ramp area are tight, some wheelchairs too wide for east access, just FYI. See photos to judge for yourself and your own needs.“

“Absolutely yummy first stop on our trip so glad we stopped“

“Perfectly located next to the ocean with crashing waves, good food and friendly staff! I enjoyed the Poke pie bowl (delicious) and my spouse ordered the trio sliders with spicy fries. The atmosphere alone encourages us to go back (there doesn't seem to be many restaurants ON the water) but we'll definitely be back for more great eats also.“

“Best Asian ribs and sushi ever!“

“Delicious food and friendly staff, the scenery is beautiful too“

“Every time my husband and I fly out from Seattle, we have to stop here immediately after landing. This is the ONLY place that has effective kava, let alone authentic Hawiian food. But the kava here really does deliver, unlike some kavas I have tried (they might taste like kava, but they don't work like kava). And I am obsessed with poi. I love poi. Sometimes I walk here just for that. Unless you go to some luau, I haven't found any other eatery that actually keeps poi on the menu. Anyway, if someone asks me if I have a favorite place to eat, I tell them Kanaka Kava. I have been to Paris. I have been to England. I have been to India, Netherlands, all over the USA, etc, etc. This is the only place that has truly left an impression on me. I hope they never leave!!!“
