Best Fun Restaurants in Kawaihae

We absolutely love this restaurant every time! Today we had the warm goat cheese appetizer, a crab avocado salad and a Mac nut crusted mahi mahi. Everything was absolute perfection, and we ended the birthday fun with a table sized piña colada cake. The cake is moist and delicious, and the pineapple just tumbles out of it when you eat it. Another fabulous birthday meal! Mahalo Nui Loa to Jason and his always attentive team of servers and talented chefs.

Dining at Copper Bar may have been our favorite dining experience on the Big Island! The setting was outstanding with the sunsetting and snorkeled heading out to see the manta rays. The service was outstanding. Our server was warm, knowledgeable, attentive. We loved the music and the beautiful, talented hula dancer made it extra special.

We’ve traveled all over the world to eat. This place could compete with any of the best places. The sake was extraordinary. Even the rice - the rice was the most delicate and silky rice I’ve ever had. If you miss this place, it’s on you. You’re not really living and you’re missing out on something very special. You owe it to your palette. The service was impeccable as well. Just go.

Hotel is under construction, but don't let that stop you from having a fabulous meal with a great view. The entire staff is impeccable, from check in person to bartender to server to the bus boy. If you are in the area or want to take a drive north from Kona, we highly recommend this establishment. First Class Award goes to this great property.

Great place for dinner while enjoying amazing sunset views.
