Kuleana Rum Shack

We had an early dinner with some pupus and two mains last night. Our server Colin was great. The drinks were very tasty and we had a very relaxing time overall. The place is very casual and has a good vibe.

Once again the Kuleana Rum Shack did not disappoint. The lumpia is amazing! Our service was also top notch!

There was a total of 8 in our party. It was a last minute reservation for a group of agents that I was hosting. It was a perfect spot to host weary travelers on their first day on the island and to break bread w/them. We had the following food: - Kalua Pork Nachos (SOOOOO GOOD!) - Lumpia, not traditional Filipino lumpia, but what a great interpretation. Entrees: - Vegan Coconut Curry, I had this and it was EXCELLENT - Seared Ahi - Burger - Wedge Salad w/a side of Fries - Poke Bowl Desert: Malasadas - the overall consensus was that they were even better than Leonards! All of the food was fantastic, great quality and super tasty. Service was awesome! Our Server was wonderful and support staff too. Everyone was warm, welcoming and friendly. Mahalo Plenty for helping me to make quite an impression!

This is beyond delicious. Absolutely the best food I have tasted on island. My tastebuds are dancing with joy!

Always have had great food here, this time had the moco loco short rib, it was delicious, wife had the curry, also delicious, wasn't packed like other times we have been here so it was pretty quiet compared to other times.

A little culinary surprise in Kona's Queens shopping mall area.

Wow! What a great tasting experience! Jackie was so cool and rums are great. If you're around here do a tasting or Mai Tai class!

Or just pop in for an amazing cocktail!

Had mochiko jerk chicken appetizer and flight of rum. The chicken was good and had a Tabasco taste. The rum flight was interesting, ranging from floral tastes to bourbon tastes.

Collin at Kuleana Rum Shack was delightful. The food was delicious & we stopped in with our boarding passes and got free Mai Tais! Happy hour pupus are really good.

We went for a light bite so we shared a wedge salad and fish tacos. The lettuce had some brown and dead tissue and was barely room temp, like it had been sitting out. I brought the wilted and rotten salad leaves to her attention and she said she would let them know and didn’t even apologize. The tacos were not very hot and shells were hard but appeared to be a soft shell . I am not a complainer but I will never go there again. Their prices were also very high.
