4 Best American Restaurants near Kilauea

“Good service! Friendly and excellent food!“

“I love this place ! The food is mostly plate lunches tasty sandwiches/burgers, and fried stuff, but the quality is good and the prices are very reasonable. Bowling is fun but I’d recommend reserving lanes before going as they can get full fast. Also there’s a video game and billiards area. You don’t have to be Military to go here to enjoy either. My only dissatisfaction is that they are sometimes very understaffed to the point the workers look worn out and get temperamental from basic requests. But I do love this place and will continue to take my chances ?

Parking: Some parking lot areas, plus parallel parking options by the cabins.

Kid-friendliness: Bowling, video games, board games lounge area, nice restrooms.“

“I recently stayed at Kilauea Lodge and Restaurant and absolutely loved it! The rooms were charming and cozy, perfectly capturing the lodge’s unique atmosphere. Dining at the restaurant was a delight, with delicious food and a warm ambiance. Its proximity to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park made exploring easy, while the surrounding ferns, forests, and native bird songs added a magical touch. The well-managed, welcoming staff truly made it a memorable stay!“

“Not sure what all the bad reviews about staff and food quality were all about, this place was great! The Kalua pork was a good portion size and very flavorful. The view is amazing and the staff were very attentive.

I think many of these reviews are over critical for small things because of the high price point but don't factor in you are eating in a historic location with a view that you rarely find anywhere else in the world for a restaurant.“
