45 Best Vegan Restaurants in Hilo

“So yummy and realistic vegan Vietnamese food 🤤🤤🤤“

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

“Best shaved ice so far that I have had on the island �. Creamy and smooth.“

“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!!!“

“Antics ROCKS! Artwork throughout. Scrumptious pizza. My favorites are the slices, which are perfect for solitary diners stopping in for lunch or dinner but unable to take a whole pizza home for later. But they also offer carryout and dine-in for whole pizzas. And birthday-party/graduation/ho'olaulea (celebrations) accommodations. Staff are superb, checking to make sure you're doing okay. And kids adore the games (free, with purchase). Amazing Antics opened DURING the pandemic & has succeeded so well! One of my favorite places to eat, especially because slices are quick & fit within my limited budget. Well-done, Antics ownership, staff, leaders and lenders! 💚“

“This place is AMAZING WITH AN AMAZING ATMOSPHERE!! A MUST!❤️❤️“

“Best Kalua Nachos ~ Friendly customer service ~ Tasty food“

“Matcha made in heaven! So enjoying the newly expanded beverage menu. Love love love.“

“Cute location! Love their dishes! Desserts are also ono! Would eat here as often as I can…“

“SO ONO!!! Everything I've tried so far has been Fantastic 😋“

“Absolutely the most delicious Mochi and other Japanese confections. These ladies have been a mainstay in Hilo and whenever we are in Hawaii, (even Kona) we will make the drive to Hilo just for their desserts.“

“Mahalo nui au i nā wāhine o ka Papa'a Palaoa Bakery ma Hilo, Hawai'i. They assisted me in providing a whole lilikoi pie to bring home to San Francisco. They fully wrapped the box in plastic to keep the pie protected, so I could then place it in an insulated bag and surround the box with frozen ice packs. The pie (as well as a cinnamon roll) made it back home just as "hou" (fresh) as when I purchased it, me ka pilikia ole (with no problems), and the pie tastes 'ono loa. I am very grateful for their assistance, and especially their kindness. I highly recommend this bakery to everyone who wants fresh baked goods, but most of all, I am very grateful to the Aloha given by their employees. Mahalo nui loa!!“

“This place is an absolute gem. We stumbled in with two hangry kids after figuring out that the place we intended to go wasn’t going to work. What a win! The food was fabulous, prices were unexpectedly reasonable, but best of all, the two gentlemen working there were so kind, completely chill, and made it a great experience for adults and keiki. We’ve been traveling in the islands for about a week, and this place is our favorite find. 10/10. Highly recommend.“

“ピーナッツバター入りのアサイボウルが美味しい“

“Great vibe, great variety!“

“Their food is amazing!Great price and great portions! Definitely the best!!!“

“Super patient staff, answered questions and gave samples as 8 of us tried to order for the first time. The portions were huge as stated. A keiki is plenty for an adult. The sno cap is coconut cream topping. All so reasonable. It is worth the drive from Kona just to come here for the experience...but there is a half mile waterfall hike close by to start your day. I tried tons of flavors off all the orders...all good. But I couldn't resist the coconut and chocolate macadamia ice cream.“

“They were extra accommodating to my weird dietary restrictions. The food was great! The presentations with plates and bowels they had the food in was very nice too. Will definitely come back.“

“Great selection of fresh fruit, juices and muffins.“

“Such good food!
We tried their combo salad, Penang curry and basil fried rice (fried rice was off the menu but the owner was very nice and friendly to accommodate our request). Large portion size and such fresh, hearty food! Highly recommend if you are in Hilo area!“

“This is the best sushi I have ever had in my life. The staff was so nice. they recommended me squid to try which i never had before, but it was awesome. Atmosphere is so nice because you get to go out and joy the fresh air. If you are in Hilo, I recommend stopping here.“

“Great people! And amazing poke n sides!! Mouthwatering 🤤“

“Food was amazing. Even after I was stuffed I still kept eating! I ordered a Chicken Katsu and it was the best Katsu I've ever had. Better than all those other fancy restaurants! Small restaurant but it deserves way more. Such a hidden gem.“

“The seafood: FRESH. The fried fish crunch factor: PERFECT. The sauces: DELICIOUS. Service was amazing and personal. Enjoy the Oahu scallops, the jumbo shrimp and Mahi Mahi fish. Sauces are made in the kitchen. My favorite was the garlic fill tartar sauce. They have TVs and chill setup. Even the fries were on point.“

“The staff is incredible. Sebastian’s tikka masala soup was soooo delicious. We definitely made the right choice.“

“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. Sascha is one of the best around, cocktails were, again, among the best that I found on the island, including Kona. Service was top notch, no matter how busy he got, and he took extra time to modify one of the house cocktails so that an elderly gal with sensitive teeth sitting nearby could enjoy it. I would honestly make the drive from Waikoloa just for this, but Hilo has plenty of outdoor activities to offer as well.“

“5 stars. Amazing food, great service, and unforgettable taste that keeps you coming back. Mahalo Tabaraka!“

“Good food.. perfect noodle soup..“

“Nice authentic Thai food. Good service. Can go again. Could have given 4.5 stars. Pictures show Papaya salad, Coconut soup, Red curry and Panang curry, all with Tofu and vegetables. Every dish had lots of vegetables. They were light on Tofu though.“

“I love all there different goodies and a good selection as well. They just opened at their new location and it’s now very easy and convenient to satisfy your sweet tooth😉“

“Really tasty dinner. Got the curry, brown rice, and cashew chicken. Felt like they were really watered down which also kept the flavors from being as strong which was disappointing because I did appreciated the spice.
Also asked for hot and felt it was more of a mild. Worth going to nonetheless“

“Delicious 😋 & generous portions of entre, salad & rice served. Friendly, patient, & helpful waitress. Short wait time for food & waitress checks, & replenishs water without requesting.
Prices above average, would recommend to family & friends.“

“Friendly customer service.“

“Love it Cafe 100 having my usual Loco Moco sloppy & Sunnyside eggs and even if didn’t have Mac salad this morning, I will always return especially for the Chicken Hekka and daily specials #hukaonorono“

“I had an amazing Iced Caramel Macchiato there! It was delicious & the vibe in the café was super chill. Nice art a well. 💜“

“This place is amazing! The buns are fresh and handmade, the burgers are made from extremely good meat, and the on tap beer selection is vast. If it's a nice day, don't miss out on the outside seating. The place has a lot of character but everything is well cleaned and maintained.“

“Pamela was our waitress. She was such a pleasant person and gave absolutely perfect service! She is an asset to IHOP. Thank you, Pam!!“

“They only have a few vegan options. I got the veggie sandwich and substituted vegan mayo. It is pretty simple, but it is done very well. I thought it was delicious. The staff is incredibly friendly and are happy to give recommendations for other places to visit.“

“My teenage daughter is a very picky eater, but when she tried Kamana's chicken Tikka Masala she fell in love. My ohana always comes for the Meat Samosa's, it is very delicious. The spices in each dish is so amazing. The employees are nice as well. Please go to the Hilo restaurant. Just note that they have a break between 3-5.“

“The food is always excellent - the ceviche is amazing! Reservations are a must - staff is friendly and knowledgeable.“

“We went here for breakfast & lunch on different days and ordered acai smoothies,.strawberry banana smoothie, chipotle wrap, falafel wrap. Everything tasted really good and highly recommend for smoothies and quick lunch. They have vegan options.“

“I went here one time while I was on vacation in Hawaii in 2021. I still have dreams about the amazing pineapple treat I got here. It's all good. Stop scrolling through reviews. This is the only review you need to read. Come here and make an unforgettable memory. Dream about it for years. Decide to move to Hawaii just so you can enjoy the magic pineapple every day.“

“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!“

“We enjoyed this for a quick lunch. Sushi was decent for the price. Order using a digital menu and your food comes on a boat conveyor belt right to you.
Atmosphere is where this place gets lower points as it had a cafeteria feel to it- something the location in Kona does feel like.“
