'Ono Hawaiian Foods: Delicious Hawaiian Food

by hamamatsujoe

Affectionately known simply as 'Onos to the local people, this place serves some very good Hawaiian food. The word "'ono" is Hawaiian, meaning "delicious", which best describes the food here.There's *always* a line of customers (both locals and tourists) waiting to get in. It's a small restaurant, but the wait is well worth it.If you want to try some authentic Hawaiian food, I recommend Ono's. Among the dishes they serve are homemade laulau (ti-leaf wrapped meats, vegetables and fish), kalua pig (steamed pork), lomi salmon (a mixture of salmon, tomato, onions, and green onions), beef stew and pipikaula (Hawaiian-style beef jerky). You can also eat haupia, which is a Hawaiian coconut dessert. If you eat here, I suggest getting either the Combination Plate or the Kalua Pig Plate. The Combo Plate is *very* large and filling and can easily be shared by two people.

Sansei: Ahi Sashimi

by Gypsywmn71

The best sushi I had on the island. Thursdays & Friday's they offer 1/2 price sushi after 9pm. Great to go with a group, drink sake and sing karaoke. Laid back atmosphere and I think the best sushi on the island. . Panko crusted Ahi sashimi!

Tiki's Grill and Bar: Fun family restaurant with a great view

by laramcc2001

This restaurant's atmosphere is very polynesian and a good place for kids. There is an open dining area with a great beach view...perfect at sunset! Macadamia Encrusted Mahi Mahi is amazing! I could have eaten it every day!

Kona Brewing Company: Beer and Pizza that is out of this World

by Slapshot1

It was by sheer luck that I found out about the Kona Brewing Company. Upon my wife and I arriving in Kona, we went shopping at Walmart to stock up on necessary supplies for our ten day stay in Hawaii. It was there I found Kona Beer from the local brewery. I purchaced a six pack of Pipeline Porter made with 100% Kona Coffee. This was a limited release and it was an exceptional tasting brew. I went back and purchaced a six pack of thier Fire Rock Pale Ale two days later to tantalize my taste buds. Wow, I really enjoyed this one too. A couple days later my wife and I were at the local laundermat doing a load of laundry when I noticed that The Kona Brewing Company was right behind us. It was as if God pointed me in the right direction. I found out that they did tours and had a restaurant and made it a point to have a visit. Although we were not able to take a tour of the facilities due to...

PONDS, HILO...DINING ON THE EDGE: Enjoy you Steak and Seafood in a beautiful setting

by Slapshot1

The Ponds Dining on the Edge was suggested to my wife and I by a local resident of Hilo and we were very happy to be introduced to this wonderful restaurant to dine in. Ponds was a very tranquil dining experience. The restaurant is on stilts above a very large koi pond that is at least an acre in size. It was absolutely gorgeous. While enjoying drinks and dinner you can slide open your window at yout table and enjoy the peaceful scenery of the pond and beautiful koi. It was an elegant but yet very relaxing place to dine at. All in all it was a great experience both in food, service and atmoshpere. I enjoyed my 10oz. Rib Eye Steak that was cooked to perfection just as I ordered it. It was served with fresh vegatables, smooth and creamy garlic mashed potatoes, pumpkin soup, salad and fresh hot rolls. This just seemed to make the atmosphere that much better. My wife enjoyed a prime rib...

Eggs n' Things: Unique

by flatland

We both ordered the house special, pancakes with fresh strawberries and whipped cream. We had to wait for about half an hour to get in. It was worth the wait. We each got 5 pancakes. My wife could not finish hers. It would be a good idea to ask if the have a half order.

Koiso Sushi Bar: The Best Sushi in all of Hawaii

by monsterjay

So your on the island of Maui and your looking for that one stop sushi experience that will have you bragging to your friends, family, and co-workers back home? Look no further as I have found your answer.If you want get away from your typical fast paced sushi bar with a menu designed for your elementary sushi lover please seek elsewhere. If however you appreciate a small scale sushi bar with extra personal attention and probably the freshest fish in all of Hawaii, please read on. What makes it so special is the sheer relaxation you will feel upon entering this place. I took advice from tripadvisor.com on this place and I am glad I did so. There are less than 10 seats. The small menu is written on a dry erase board. Your seated right at the base of where your sushi is made. Instead of picking items off the menu however, I highly suggest that you just leave your meal up to the sushi chef....

Gordon Biersch Brewery & Restaurant: Great atmosphere

by SurfingLuvr

Gordon Biersch is a great place to go if you want to try the different beers and listen to live music. The ambiance is great with their live music and view of the Honolulu Harbor. If you love garlic, have some of the garlic fries, but be warned: they are LOADED with garlic, much like everything else on the island!

Hana Ranch Restaurant: End of the Road to Hana

by apbeaches

We drove for 3 hours on the Road to Hana in Maui. It was a beautiful ride & we were hungry once we got to Hana. We wanted fish but were amazed to find so many heifers & stopped at this Hotel & Ranch for lunch. Waitress was knowledgeable, efficient & helpful. After a wonderful lunch we headed down the road to swim in a beautiful volcanic black beach. The buffalo burgers were the popular item on the menu & were huge & wonderful.

Cafe Oriente: Chinatown

by apbeaches

We walked through Chinatown and found a restaurant filled with Chinese. We found it to be clean, service excellent, and everything we ordered was extraordinary. We enjoyed Cafe Oriente so much we went back again the following day. We left beyond filled with a bill around $20.00. Around the corner & North of this restaurant was a small & wonderful Hawaiian shirt shop. They had tons of authentic batics in beautiful prints. This wasn't the cheesy bright rayon's but beautiful cotton batiks. My husband was hungry so we went through quickly purchasing only a few $5.00 shirts. The owner was very personable & said she was leaving for New York tomorrow. When my husband realized this find & we went back she was closed for vacation. Clams, shrimp, chicken, rice dishes were incredible. We looked at filled tables around us and everything looked wonderful & seemed to be enjoyed.
