I have been here dozens of times with many people. It is timeless and a place to build classic hawaiian memories!

Superb location, but the dishes are becoming and unrefined compared to the price, especially the Ahi/Tuna. Service just ok, table not cleaned further when arriving and the waitress put the bill on the food she had dropped while clearing…

This restaurant is worth visiting and has potential to be awesome. The views are spectacular and the ambiance tends towards pretentious. They have large rattan chairs that poked me in the back, but others seemed unaffected. I ordered clam chowder and the "world famous" cheeseburger. Chowder was excellent. Burger major disappointment. Wimpy tomato and no onions or mustard. The iced tea was so weak adding lemon turned it into weak lemonade. My wife had a salad and martini that she enjoyed. Kona Inn can be an awesome place but needs some helpParking: Large lot nearby

The best place to see the seaFish dishes, steaks, shrimp cocktails, salads, Hawaii Island is a little cheaper than Honolulu, the taste was great, I could see the sunset, and it was great.

A bit disappointed by the food. The shrimp tasted like it had just been frozen and then thrown in the microwave. Not good. Lobster was decent. The restaurant itself was nice and the service was good.

You can't beat the view .....we missed sunset but still beautiful on the ocean. Food was good......we ordered the nachos as an app and they were so so big we were all pretty full when our entrees came. One thing that stood out for us was our server.......my husband had a headache, we asked where can we get ibuprofen.....she said hold on a minute and came back w 2 ibuprofen. She was so friendly and took care of our family. Sorry I don't remember her name......loved her.
