Don the Beachcomber in Kona is a tropical paradise that offers a blend of Hawaiian and Asian dishes. The signature Mai Tais are a must-try, made with fresh juices and premium spirits. The ocean view enhances the ambiance, making it perfect for sunset views. Visitors appreciate the great service and friendly staff, reflecting Hawaii’s warmth. The restaurant has a lively atmosphere with a circular bar set against the ocean and a small stage for bands, creating a fun and relaxed vibe. The food is superb, with popular items like the avocado bacon burger, which features three patties plus fries, and breakfast options such as the breakfast burrito and acai bowl, both highly recommended. The PHO prime rib french dip sandwich has received glowing reviews, described as a unique blend of flavors that is a must-try. The place is very kid-friendly, making it ideal for families. Despite occasional wait times and parking challenges, the overall experience, history, and flavors make Don the Beachcomber a unique dining destination worth returning to. Don’t miss the nachos, tuna sashimi, or the classic 1947 Mai Tai for an authentic taste. The attentive staff, including Lacy and Lucy, ensures a memorable dining experience.
