Kamana Kitchen Reviews
Delicious, authentic vegan options. Chana masala and mixed veg curry were excellent. Veggies and chickpeas tasted ‘fresh’ (not canned or frozen).
Very yummy. A good break from all the Thai restaurants around here.
Don’t do the hot hot dish it’s beyond what one would consider indie or Thai hot it’s super spicy . In the Mainland Thai hot Indie hot you can still enjoy taste of food . It’s my only suggestion . Would go back great authentic ambience beautiful authentic service good food .

Kamana Kitchen offers delicious Indian cuisine with generous portions. The menu includes dishes like Paneer Pakora, lamb curry, garlic Naan, chicken Tandoori, Vegetarian Thali, and Lamb Tikka Masala. The chicken Tandoori is a popular choice, and the mango lassi is highly recommended. The Pakora and samosas are known for being perfect, while the flavors of the chana, daal, and eggplant are also praised. The naan bread is particularly well-liked for being crispy on the bottom and soft on top, making it a favorite among diners. Guests often enjoy fresh and clean food, with the onion kulcha being one of the freshest and most perfect kulchas they've had. The plain yogurt is homemade and delicious, adding to the authentic experience. Diners also find the tikka masala rich and creamy, and the chai tea and Indo-Chinese dishes are praised as some of the best on the east side of the Big Island.
The service is friendly and efficient, and there is plenty of seating available. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible and kid-friendly, with adjustable spice levels to suit different tastes. Customers have noted that the food is flavorful, well prepared, and served hot. Guests are advised that the hot hot dish is extremely spicy, so they may want to choose a milder level. Although some customers have mentioned that staff may not always check back at the table, overall, the experience is highly recommended as a great, authentic place in Hilo town. There may be a wait for food and dessert during busy times, but the good value for the money makes it worth it. Some guests have found the signage limited, making the restaurant a hidden gem, and have enjoyed reheating the meals at home to relive the flavors.
