   Sat there for an hour ordered two drinks, no appetizers had arrived yet. Asked the server how much longer and she told us it would be a lot longer because they were backed up. We had a reservation… We asked for the manager and told him that we were leaving, he did end up covering our drinks which was good of him. Not sure if they were having a bad night as we over heard two other groups who were sat in our immediate vicinity having similar experiences and also talking with the manager. We left and went to Chik-Fil-A, a bit over dressed! lol

   Was very excited about this location and the food sounded good. We had a party of 12 and were seated for our reservation right away, but we waited almost 2 hours for the food that then came out cold. The waiter was nice and said he would give us all dessert since our wait was so long. He took all our orders for dessert, then only brought out 4 and basically sent us on our way. He said the kitchen is failing. The whole experience was a fail, especially with 4 kids under 4.

   Tamara did not disappoint. Food came fast, warm and delicious! Loved our seating (by the huge fish tank) definitely will be back.

   Kona Grill is overpriced for mediocre food. Save your money and your taste buds.

   Kona Grill is awesome and has a lot to offer. During the evening the vibe is awesome and honestly the starters (we had the meatballs and calamari) were so good! I had fish and chips the first time and it wasn’t my favorite (mostly due to the price/portions, it was still really good), but it’s comparable with prices you would see at any steak house and all of their food is delicious. Service is also fantastic, we will be coming back.

   The only thing negative in our experience so it's the food took forever to come out

   Took over 40 min for our server to bring out miso soup and a salad… it came minutes before food. I think he forgot us, and cared more about cleaning the finished table he had served. In regards to meals…The chicken in the stirfry was so dry and hard it was hard to chew. The tacos were good but that is all that came with the meal for the price- three small tacos! No rice or chips or sides. Prices were high for taste and service! It was our second visit but will probably be the last! Not sure why servers can’t figure out how to manage time and check in on tables. Even if you have a large group… it’s easy to add smaller tables orders in here and there, AND refill drinks. Don’t be a server if you can’t organize thoughts and duties. And don’t keep apologizing, and passing blame on the kitchen or another table. Kona Grill won’t make it long!
