- CchrisvipNew York City •21 reviews5.0Dined on Nov 12, 2024The property is beautiful and so expensive. The Restaurant vibe couldn’t be more beautiful. You walk down the path and see the manta rays feeding. The staff is relaxed, but still attentive and very friendly. The menu was more innovative than other restaurants I’ve seen on the island.More infoManta at Mauna KeaPrice: Very Expensive• Pacific Rim• Kohala Coast•4.6
