A-Bay's Island Grill

Kid-friendliness: Kids will definitely love the pancakes. However, get the kids' plate. The regular plate is too much for the kids to finish so they went to waste.

The place is conveniently located by the lagoon since the restaurant by the pool was closed. But the food was not very good for the high prices. $80 for 2 burgers and one cocktail.

Worst dining experience we had on the big island. I was excited to try the corned beef hash loco moco. We got there at noon and were seated immediately with lots of open tables. There was a section on the lunch menu that said “breakfast for lunch” and included corned beef hash skillet which was corned beef hash over fried rice with 2 eggs any way. On the side menu there was extra gravy so I assumed that I could turn that into a loco moco. However when we got there we were informed that they were out of corned beef hash from the breakfast rush & that we should have just come earlier. My husband ordered the loco moco & it was so bland it had to be heavily salted and peppered to make it palatable. I got the strawberry cucumber cooler which suggests a refreshing beverage but was so sour & dry that it was unpalatable. The banana dessert had a massive scoop of vanilla ice cream with only the slightest hint of the flavors in the description. We ordered everything at once and dessert arrived just after our drinks. It was the single largest waste of money we spent on this island. Disappointment doesn’t begin to cover it.

We had dinner here while on vacation and it was all very good! We sat outside with the live music and it was a very nice atmosphere. The pork ribs were delicious as was the mud pie dessert!

Incredible shrimp lumpia and amazing fish tacos. The corn tortilla is made fresh in house. The service was spot on, and it's a convenient place to eat in the kings shopping center.

Apparently, this is the closest place to get breakfast at a reasonable price is Waikoloa. The food was very good and plentiful. Great flavor. Corned beef hash was highly recommended and did not dissapoint. French toast was nice and thick, and luingisa sausage savory. Service a bit slow, probably due to lack of help

Service from our waitress was phenomenal, but it took quite some time for the kitchen to prepare our breakfast.

Great food paired with a beautiful outdoor patio and live music, nestled in Kings Shops.

The Ahi was cooked perfectly rare and tasted fantastic. The Shrimp Lumpia definitely was leaning more towards a fried spring roll, but still delicious nonetheless.

Great way to end a day of shopping in Waikoloa.

Parking: Located in a shopping center, plenty of surrounding parking.

Wheelchair accessibility: The entire restaurant is on ground level, can easily accommodate a wheelchair.

My regular go-to for drinks at night and breakfast in the morning. Burgers are great too. A-bays stays open later than any other restaurant or bar around.

You can eat at both indoor and outdoor tables, so we ate outside. It was a bit windy, but it's Hawaii. Some people say it's stressful to order without being able to imagine what kind of food it is even when you look at the menu, and some people say it's interesting because it looks like a dark hot pot, but I was fine with it. However, I am sorry that I ended up not remembering what I ate or the name of the item. I gave it a score of 3, which is considered "average" as I think it's pretty good when eating out at a tourist spot. Just because it's not a 4 or 5 point doesn't mean it's bad, it just means you can put it in normally and please use it.
