“Hands down the best fish and chips. They were steaks of fish, lightly beer battered and stuffed with fish steak.
We live in SoCal with English taverns that swear they’ve got the best fish and chips. They’re wrong, Sunset Terrace has the best.

The guitar solo was outstanding, soothing and easy to listen while conversation with those around us.

Friendly pool for the kids to play in while we watched the sunset of sunsets.

So glad we spent our last night relaxing after a week jammed full of mantas, beaches, star gazing and volcanoes.

Don’t let your to do list ruin your sanity of enjoying the moment with your family.

Put the camera down and enjoy your family. The next blink might be the last.“

“Huge shout out to bartender Ryan. Great service, super friendly. If I am back on the island I will definitely come back for the great food/drinks (Ryan makes a great mai tai) and great service. The place is great for a chill, relaxed evening.“

“Kanaka Kava is one of my favorite spots on the island! They have the best kava by far! 'Awa is grown and harvested fresh by local their Hawaiian Kanaka Maoli farm, they are a truly local native family business. They have the best Hawaiian food I've found for purchase on Hawai'i. It's so good I have to go every time I'm in Kona! Connect to the native culture and eat of the best Island food. They have vegan options too. Aloha e Kanaka Kava!“

“We had great, speedy service, and the food was great! We had the poke bowl, chicken dipper basket, wings, and a chicken-cheese quesadilla. Everything was about the size you'd expect except for the wings. There are only 5 but the texture was good! The prices are about what you'd expect at an oceanfront resort- about $14-18 per appetizer and $18-30 for entrees. For those with kids, the chicken dipper basket at $18 comes with fries and is big enough to split. The quesadilla at $14 is also huge. Oh, the Mai Tai was good, but the Lava Flow Mai Tai was absolutely better!!!“

“Our family of 11 dined here on July 28th. We chose this restaurant as it was close to where we would be doing the Manta Ray Swim and where others that were golfing at Kona Country Club were close as well. The food was delicious. I think we had a little of everything at our table. Sweet chili wings, fries, Chicken Teriyaki, Seafood Pasta, Fish Tacos, are just a few of the items our crew enjoyed! Oh, and the Chocolate cake was amazing! Our sever, Cherlynn (I hoped I spelled it right) was absolutely outstanding! While we were at dinner our swim was canceled. We were a little bummed but her attitude, personality, and spirit was just what we needed! She truly has the kindest soul and a great resprentation of Aloha. Thank you for a wonderful experience. The Forbes Family Greenville, NC“

“We had a quick lunch. Service was pretty quick and the view of the bay was nice.“

“Our second visit this vacation and by far our favorite foods and drinks of all the island. Great staff to top off the experience.“

“This bar is the perfect mix of laid-back charm and quality. The drinks are excellent—well-made, flavorful, and served just right. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting, with great ocean view that adds to the overall experience without feeling over the top. The staff are friendly and attentive, making you feel genuinely welcome, and the food is surprisingly good for a place that focuses on drinks. It’s the kind of spot where you can unwind, enjoy good company, and have a great time without any pretension.“

“Great restaurant. Food, service and atmosphere... a trifecta!“

“Staff was excellent and friendly. Fast service and on top of everything when it came to our food and drinks. Decor is cool and the food was excellent, plus the night we were there, there was live music which made us stay longer and get more drinks. Also a great spot for the sunset too!“

“We just enjoyed a beautiful sunset while we sipped a Maitai. Followed by a delicious Caprese appetzer and the entrees which included Egg plant parmigiana and Aloha Chicken and Build your own pasta. Our server, Emily, was very attentive and extremely professional. all in all we had an excellent experience hope you try it.“

“Rolled up randomly a Monday night, we were the only ones but that made it even more fun. They had 3 HUGE books of songs to choose from. Staff was friendly and pricing wasn't bad. When I swing through Kona again I will definitely stop by.“

“Came for the happy hour and it didn't disappoint!! I had the $12 shrimp bucket and a cup of clam chowder. The clam chowder is possibly the best I've ever had. I'm always on the hunt for a clam chowder without bacon and I finally found it on island. The shrimp were deveined and very easy to peel. House made cocktail sauce with horseradish. Oceanfront views!! I will definitely be back 🤙💖 mahalo“
