“Loved this place! Yummy food and great environment. Affordable prices. Long waits and staff doesn’t really acknowledge you because they’re so busy. But everyone was nice and good is good. Highly recommend making reservations so you can skip the wait.“

“Cool, laid back spot. Plenty of space and lots of nice people (and fish and a dog). Nice and non touristy, and amazing prices! Make sure you get the pizza here and add a dash of salt. Best pizza I've had in a long time and I'm from NYC! They have a pinball machine, darts, and multiple pool tables as well. The people seemed really friendly too.Vegetarian options: They have a cheese quesadilla, pizza, and snacks like popcorn and chips.Parking: Lot was pretty full“

Honokōhau Harbor Deli and Sea Store Deli • $$
74-425 Kealakehe Pkwy, Kailua-Kona

“We have literally made this place a must-stop since our honeymoon in 1995. Great local spot, not touristy, just good food and drinks. Open air seating on the marina to chill and get a burger or other 'basic' pub fare. Is the food great? Honestly probably no, but the service is also mid. But who cares, you're in Kona at a local bar having a beer in a frosted goblet the size of a volleyball!“

Dolphin Spit Saloon Bar • $
75-5629 Kuakini Hwy, Kailua-Kona

“As a local, this is my favorite bar in town. Roomy and open, plenty of seating for a place its size, and friendly, cheerful employees. The patronage is a diverse collection of mostly local people, and I absolutely LOVE that people can bring their dogs with them! While they have no food services, the Chinese food place next door will deliver right to your bar stool, as will the Thai place behind it.“

Bahn MI Pho Dip

“The Bahn Mi Pho Dip is really good, and not something I’ve seen before. The sweet potato fries are good, and come with a ginger dipping sauce that was unexpectedly complementary, enhancing the fries. The ocean view is excellent, and while we were there after sunset, I expect it would be a nice place to enjoy a sunset.Unknown to me, they’ll validate 3 hours of parking across the street. Good for me to know next time.“

“Happy hour 2pm-5pm! Great menu with steak options. Didn’t grab a photo of the volcanic fries they were too bomb to not devour right away. Service was very aloha. Beautiful ocean view or you can watch 1 of the many tvs that offer the sports games. Kid friendly with mocktail options. I’m surprised that there are so many reviews that state the food is flavorless! The food was very satisfying, totally recommend. Just a walk away from the Kona coast resort ?“

“This is a hidden gem! It’s hidden behind other restaurants and bars and so not very easy to spot but if you do find it, you will not regret it. We tried the $6 all day every day Mai Tai’s and they did not disappoint! At that price, they did not skimp out on the alcohol and it tasted amazing!We also tried the grilled mahi mahi and grilled shrimp tacos and both of those items were awesome! Their Chipotle Aioli on those tacos totally blew them out of the water!The staff was very friendly & attentive and was very patient with our million questions and also gave some tips and tricks that we found very helpful!Unfortunately we discovered this gem towards the end of our trip and won’t be able to make another stop on this trip but this is definitely on our list anytime we return to the big island.“
