Pagoda Restaurant & Catering

Delicious breakfast. Very nice people. Fast service. 5 dollars discount for two people, from Pagoda hotel

The servers are somewhat responsive, but they even apologize for how short staffed they are, and they have such a limited menu.
We waited for 30 minutes before the server took our orders, and then another 25 minutes for our food to arrive. I had the Loco Moco, but it was really dry and salty. It tasted more like the 7-Eleven Loco Moco. Not impressive. Their coffee is also not very good at all, and it’s weak. It might be okay for tea drinkers though.
There is no atmosphere whatsoever. The general feeling is of a hospital cafeteria, and even that is a stretch. I wouldn’t call this place “clean” either, as the carpet was badly stained and had an odor coming up from the floor.
They also offer a small menu of breakfast items for hotel guests, but the visual on that menu is pretty pathetic, and doesn’t look worthwhile, unless you’re a super light eater. Again, it’s for hotel guests, so it appears to be an appetizer menu, and not a complete meal.
I wouldn’t recommend going here if you’re interested in having a good breakfast. It’s a skeleton crew serving skeleton breakfasts.
I would have given it 1-Star, but the servers were apologetic, and also the food didn’t make me sick, at least.
There is extremely limited parking for the restaurant, and when the 5 spaces are full, then you have to pay for parking across the street at parking meters or Ross and pay hourly.

The Pagoda Floating Restaurant, situated next to the Pagoda hotel, earns my 4-star rating primarily for its attractions, service, and specials. I was drawn here by the koi pond attraction, which didn't disappoint. The fact that they offer breakfast, available on weekdays until 11 am and weekends until 12 pm, was a definite plus. The outstanding service truly made my day, with the attentive staff offering water and tea multiple times and assisting with all my needs. Guests staying at the hotel receive a voucher for a special waffle dish, and there's also a unique ox tail soup on the menu. While I enjoyed the distinctive coconut pancakes, I wasn't a fan of the pineapple papaya jam. I appreciated that it was served on the side. The omelet had good flavor but was slightly overcooked, and the different style of potatoes was a nice touch. We were even able to get cups of brown pebbles to feed the fish, adding to the overall experience. The ambiance was quiet, with a comfortable number of diners present.

Overall, I had a positive experience and I would consider returning in the future.

We ate breakfast there, and it was a simple country feel with waffles. Definitely be back again. We had to catch our taxi to the airport for our returning flight to Hilo.

The place has changed a lot in the 7 years since I've been here. First, it's no longer in the pagoda (that's now a Russian/Korean restaurant)! So, no more views of the koi pond as you eat. The food was good, and the portions large, but still a bit salty for my taste. The service, I must say, was outstanding. All the staff were attentive and friendly.
