We had a great experience at Kuhio Grille. Fried rice was delicious. Mushroom bacon cheeseburger was also really good. Definitely enjoyed the laulau, delicious Hawaiian food. The peach bread pudding was really good with hot melted butter. Definitely worth visiting this restaurant when staying in Hilo.
This was my 2nd option because the other place had a 30 min wait. The loco moco was more jelly than I’d like. But my gf burger was spot on she said.
Great..overall had a great meal.
The food here is delicious. The staff was helpful with meal suggestions. I enjoyed reading about the history of this place and the Waiepoi Valley.
Great local food!!

I ordered a piece of fried tempura udon. The udon looked like it came from a supermarket. The fried vegetable skin was very soft, and the fried shrimp was all made of dough.

Some food was good, some food was not good. this place is extremely busy! I think because the sleepy town doesn’t have much else.
In fact, we called for pick up and several times got a busy signal. You just have to be persistent. They do have reserved parking for pick up so that’s nice.
Supposedly they’re famous for laulau. But I didn’t like it. It was dry. However, there saimin was excellent. And their tempura was pretty good as well. nothing inside; just a normal restaurant.
