Restaurants near Puako

“The food court has many empty spots. The bbq plate is awesome. The chicken and beef are very flavorful. The saimen soup lacks flavor. Overall good experience.”

“World-traveling foodie here. Been to Italy and Peru and live in LA where excellent Italian and Peruvian cuisine is prevalent. So hear me when I say that Claudia and Gino’s Italian-Peruvian cuisine at Cipriano’s vies in my experience for the best I’ve had. Incredibly fresh local ingredients, superb bread and pasta made on-site with Italian flour, innovative recipes made with love. Very casual little yellow bungalow where we eat on a shady porch fringed with tropical foliage and from the kitchen comes your moan-worthy meal…”

“i had the ribs... delicious”

Drinks were also great. The service was wonderful and one of the best parts of our experience. Thank you CanoeHouse!”

“delicious calamari and curry mussels appetizers, rib eye entries a must and for dessert brownies with ice cream and fried banana”

“Oh My! This hidden gem 💎 is just what we needed to kick off our July 4th celebration. The line was moving quickly. They took our order with care. We had just enough time to take photos and our order arrived. YUM!!! ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!! 🍧”

“Forget the the Food Trucks in Oahu , the Garlic Shrimp here is unreal , eat with your bare hands,it melts in your mouth.”

“Totally awesome authentic burger place. My only regret was not ordering another burger. My sister had the Surf Burger and I had the Hi-Heat. On the drive back to our hotel, we just randomly kept saying what a great burger those were. Honestly surprised we didn’t turn around and go back for more.”

“Halani has consistently great service, food & ambience. We're told they are shifting to a more Mediterranean type of cuisine and I anticipate the quality level will remain high. As residents of the Big Island (and though we love the ocean-front Four Seasons Beach Tree), Halani is our favorite dining spot.”

“Chef Soto’s every dish tonight was fabulous! From the salads to the entrees to the dessert, we loved every bite. Oftentimes eating out at resorts can be expensive and mediocre at best. But that was not the case at Meridia and we were absolutely pleasantly surprised. Thank you Meridia, for a wonderful night out.”

“So-so food that was pretty expensive. Don’t go out of your way to come here but the atmosphere is solid if you’re looking for a nice dinner. You get the beach breeze and, when we were there, there was a live band playing which was great — perfect ambiance without being overly loud.”

“Ann and Khan were absolutely amazing! The food was delicious, the service was perfect, and the whole experience couldn't have been better. Highly recommend!”

“Amazing selection! Incredible service! Best ice cream on the island!🍧🌴🌞💜”

“Such a fantastic dining venue. The menu is great and everything was so fresh and well-prepared. Service was outstanding and so very friendly. Music, hula, what's not to like? We love coming here. The seared ahi with coconut couscous was amazing as was the daily catch.”

“Great wine, atmosphere, our waiter/bartender was amazing!”

“Wow oh ? wow!!!! ? My husband is HUGE donut fan and we are very well aware of malasadas back in my hula days...but we've not experienced it filled with "your choice" jelly filling! And so warm and yummy ? with guava and lilikoi ....blows any jelly donut out of the park! It's right off the highway and it is a MUST stop!
Our daughter-in-law is the biggest jelly donut fan I've met so I'm excited to have her experience Manuela when we come back ....or find them in South Carolina. They have many locations outside of Hawaii...not sure if that's good or bad. My waistline says 'no' ...ha!”

“All the food I've tried here has been very good and probably the best value for prepared food in Hawaii. The market is a little on the small side but has a good variety of products.”

“Totally awesome authentic burger place. My only regret was not ordering another burger. My sister had the Surf Burger and I had the Hi-Heat. On the drive back to our hotel, we just randomly kept saying what a great burger those were. Honestly surprised we didn’t turn around and go back for more.”

“Best Shave Ice. Anywhere.”

“Great gelato excellent service.”

“Reliably tasty food. Watch out for price and content deviation from what is quoted on the menu. I was charged nearly 20% higher and had to pay for rice, which was supposed to be included in the meal.”

“Wow! Loved the tasting and the information that Ricardo shared. So much fun! Go and enjoy!”

“Great to see Raphael and Yani !!! Miss you guys. It was so good to see you :)”

Every employee was pleasant and we got help from bri, Kelly and elana. We will be back soon, thanks ladies for making us feel so much aloha and attention. Keep up the good work Johnny’s!”

“Absolutely gorgeous spot to dine at, located inside the four seasons resort. All dishes were super fresh and delicious, some of the best on the island (as expected from four seasons). The staff are very professional and courteous and quick to notice if you need anything at all. Their dessert offerings were also quite delicious, so tempting and good in fact that I forgot to take a picture of the dessert before digging in. Come enjoy the great food and views at this “casual” dining establishment. Their fresh catch of the day was amazing.”

“I wanted to Thank you for the amazing time dining at your establishment. The highlight of all was our Server Rose, she went above and beyond both nights we dined there. Rose is a exceptional Server and I hope you appreciate her as much as we did. Hopefully it will get back to Rose that we feel like she's a great person...”
