15 Best Seafood Restaurants in Hilo

“Visiting the big Island, stopped at this restaurant because the recommendations on line. I must say it was the absolute best dinner we have had in Honolulu and here in the big island. Food is superb, service fabulous. If you like well executed dishes, fresh, exquisite and plated beautifully, this is the place!!!“

“Wow! Loved this! Beautiful atmosphere, excellent service and really delicious food!“

“Unique experience of local fish market. Checked it out because my husband like poke . We got a few 1/2 lb of different kinds and got some rice separatedly since we brought them home to eat later. My husband said he thinks if we got the poke bow with fish and rice all together would be better since the sauce would soak in the rice. We brought it home while the fish was good, he felt it wasn't enough sauce for his rice.“

“Drinks and everything we got were soo delicious!! Husband got the chinese fish which is the snapper as of right now and I got the pan seared duck. Also got the soup of the day which is the potato soup and got a sushi roll. Will definitely be back here if we ever come back to The Big Island!“

“We ordered fish and chips and everything was sooo crispy and fresh. Also more of an affordable place to get fresh fish and chips. The coleslaw on the side was something new I hadn’t tried and it made the whole meal just refreshing. I also ordered a strawberry matcha and a vanilla iced coffee. My matcha didn’t have much strawberry it was more so just matcha and milk but still good. I would come here again. Good quick lunch spot.“

“Our Sunday multi-table extended family banquet for college grad grand son was outstanding!!! Our 10menu items were delicious, hot, generously plated, and a great value. Service attention was excellent, allowing prompt transition to family provided deserts.
Plenty of room at and between tables for conversation, visiting, and keiki sharing! Mahlo nui loa!!!!“

Hawaii's BBQ Deli
111 E Puainako St Unit 570
Hilo, HI 96720

It's a stall in the Puainako Shopping Center. Aside from that I had a good bowl of vegetable saimin there. There is a menu board above the order counter where I placed my order with the attendant. She later brought it to me at my table. The setup is a cozy fast food style table and chair arrangement.

There was a large quantity of al dente vegetables with authentic tasting noodles in a lightly salted broth, not like the instant noodle sodium bombs.

Very satisfying and a repeat.“

“On June 16, 2021, my mom, husband, and I decided to treat ourselves to dinner at Izakaya Miyo after a long, stressful year. It's a prix fixe menu ($99 per person at the time). I highly recommend this restaurant to celebrate a special occasion or just to treat yourself. Chef Louis Pauole is very warm and friendly and explains each dish to you. This is not just a meal, but it is a memorable experience for the senses. Every dish is both beautiful and delicious! Standing ovation!“

“Food comes out on a little service train. We had a larger party and split between 2 tables. Prices were reasonable. Plates are small with reasonable portions. Food was tasty and well done. Other options are available aside from sushi such as eggs, chicken and beef. There was a selection of things unavailable when we went but it could've been timing for us. Service was kind. Restrooms were clean.“

“Beautiful atmosphere, friendly service with great food… highly recommend this place“
