Reviews for PAPAJACS in Hilo, HI
Fantastic food and welcoming service. Definitely check out Papajac's! We tried the sauteed mushrooms, meatball sub, roasted... chicken salad, chicken spinach pasta and the shrimp scampi and they were all delicious!!! It was the perfect portion after awonderful day of snorkeling. Truly a gem! Read more
Today, we checked out a new classy (Damask table cloths, heavy silverware, cloth napkins) upscale, yet affordable Italian... Restaurant, located next to Pacific Tsunami Museum called Papajacs! It was a dream come true! So clean, and such beautifulinterior! The dishes were mouth-watering and filling! Tom had a Meatball Sandwich????, & I had a Chicken Spinach Pasta????. (Ihad to ask for a "Take-Out" tray). Their music track included greats like Frank Sinatra, Nina Simone, & Al Jerome...the servicewas impeccable! We met Papajacs in person????! The view of our incredible Hilo Bay was the bonus! Finally, an Excellent ItalianRestaurant, in our precious Hilo...????????????And..."Big Island East Hawaii side people, really Deserve it"????????Mahalo nuiloa, Papajac & staff???? Read more
Atmosphere is 5 star. Beef Stew and Minestrone Soup were amazing. Salad and dessert could have been better. Waitstaff could... have been more helpful, but was very nice. Will definitely be back Read more
Good food , nice ambiance, good service! Can?t wait till they start opening for dinner! We?ll definitely be back!
This place is VERY AFFORDABLE!! All entrees around $15, but the quality of a $30 entree. Sandwiches w/ Salad in pic where $12... each & added soup $4. Place has an upscale vibe: cloth table clothes, cloth napkins, pepper grinder, etc. Very nice place onthe Oceanfront in downtown Hilo. We live here and our office is 2 blocks away?so given we know and visited most restaurantshere, the is one of the more refined restaurants and super affordable. Read more
WOW! This place is GREAT. Such a nice addition to the downtown Hilo list of restaurants and such a wide variety of foods. We... both love it and take it to go all the time. That roasted chicken salad is my favorite but so far, everything I've tried I'vereally loved. HIGHLY recommended! Read more
