Hilo Bay Cafe Reviews
Had lunch here 2/3 days that we were in Hilo, everything was amazing. The Misoyaki Butterfish Salad was fresh and extremely flavorful without being heavy, and the fish melts like butter in your mouth. We also had a cold water scallop special, an eggplant /marinara/pesto/ricotta appetizer (forgot what it's called, oops!) and crab cakes. Everything was great, honestly one of the best places I've eaten at on the entire island. I like to sit at the bar, as I'm a former long time bartender....read full review

Hilo Bay Cafe is a restaurant that offers a variety of delicious and reasonably priced dishes, with a focus on fresh, high-quality ingredients. The cheeseburger is a standout menu item, and the house-made pickles are a must-try side. The atmosphere is pleasant, with a great view of the water, especially if you reserve a table on the patio. The staff is friendly and attentive, providing excellent service. Customers often mention that the food is very tasty, and the ocean view makes the experience even better. The restaurant has an elegant feel, and the service is consistently good. While some reviews mention occasional issues with food temperature and doneness, overall, it remains a highly recommended dining destination in Hilo.
