   The seats in the booth we sat in were old and torn up. The glass I received my water in was cracked all over. The waiter forgot our drink orders several times. Will not be returning.

   Food was drowned in sauce and just so so. Service was great and the ambiance was quiet and relaxed,

   This was our first time dining at Kona and will definitely be our last. We were seated by someone who seemed like they hated their job, no smile no customer service strictly just a seater. It took over 5 minutes for our server to greet us but he gave great service once greeted. Started with the calamari it was mid at best but definitely not worth $21. It was chewy and a few pieces were under cooked. The Asian salad with macadamia nut chicken was no better than a drive thru salad. Chicken was probably frozen before prepared it was missing a few of the ingredients listed on the menu. The poke bowl was decent but nothing to brag over. The total bill was close to $100 and absolutely NOT worth that. A huge disappointment to say the least. The bar area even smelt like septic.

   Terrible experience. We dined in on a Saturday, and the restaurant was relatively empty (should’ve been a red flag to dine elsewhere). Despite this, it took approx 30-45 mins for our appetizers and drinks to come out. The waitress never came back to check on us until we finished our meals. We never even received any silverware or napkins, I had to flag another waitress down to request them and she seemed annoyed by that. Made a slick comment under her breath where I couldn’t hear her and another waitress laughed. My bill was $150 excluding a very undeserving tip, I’ve had better service and food elsewhere. It’s no wonder this company filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy and closed all of its Houston locations. I will NOT be returning.

   I’m a fan of Kona Grill for its sizable menu and convenience within the mall. Food /drinks tend to be consistent. When unsatisfied, I've communicated such with the server and it has been made right. Please bare in mind, they could be training new hires, be slammed, and out of stock of items all of which affect overall service. Cool aesthetic. Reminds me of the Cheesecake Factory. Outdoor seating had ample umbrellas. The happy hour rocks! Sometimes things change. Be sure and call ahead to ensure of operating hours for the day.
