The restaurant is located near Kona Airport, and the front desk is run by a pair of twin brothers. It serves typical Hawaiian-style American Chinese food with very generous portions. Everything is served with disposable tableware, which I find convenient. The taste leans toward the local Hawaiian flavor and is quite good. Next time I come to the Big Island, I’ll definitely stop by here after landing—have a meal and then head to the Costco next door for shopping.

Simple little hidden gem. It’s bare necessities, but finally a meal that doesn’t break the bank and was actually pretty darn good. Lots of choices, very sweet people. Definitely not a fancy place but with the prices on the island elsewhere being so muck, I highly recommend it if you want to save a little and still be full with a smile on your face. The mango smoothie was delicious and refreshing after a day in the water. would go back!

The food was delicious, and the serving size was huge. Clean restaurant and fast service. When ordering, the young gentleman explained what other choices there are. And you aren't rushed when ordering. Since first posted, my family has been to Rainbow Cafe 2 other times, and I will be adding more pictures as my family and I try out more new dishes.
