Reviews for Papa Kona Restaurant & Bar in Kailua-Kona, HI

Good place good staff. The scenery is incredible and it?s a good place to visit. You can walk to souvenir shops or other bars... around. This is a good location. Food I might have had a bad experience but I don?t think that?s ground to rate any lower as Imight have gotten a bad batch of food. My burger was a little burnt but my wife liked her food. Read more

Stopped in for late lunch on a September Monday and had a great meal with very minimal number of guests. We were quickly... seated, outside, with an amazing view of the surf. Ordered the pulled pork Eggs Benedict and Chef Burger which was prepared asordered with a side of fries, salted to perfection. The only thing preventing five stars was the pace of service was a littlerushed, which seemed odd given how empty the place was at the time. However there was no push for us to leave after we payedthe check, so we stayed and enjoyed the view for another 15-20 min. Certainly would recommend to anyone looking for a bite toeat with a great view. Plenty of indoor seating too if a quick shower moves into the area. Read more

Wonderful views and good food. The staff was very friendly. We got the the avocado fries and they were delicious! We also got... the grilled catch of the day and the chicken. Ask we delicious. The atmosphere was great. Did was served very fast. Drinks arequite expensive so plan on paying 15 per drink. Most importantly, they serve Tito's! Read more

If you want to seek a restaurant with a great Hawaiian ocean view, this restaurant could be one of your options. I have beed... visited this restaurant before the pandemic, and I enjoyed this because of the great and beautiful ocean view. However, duringthe pandemic, the restaurant name is changed (and I think that the owner is also changed), and their service and food also ischanged. I actually also enjoyed the food here before they are changed, but I now do not like much of their food and service.It's okay. They are not friendly and their food is fine by me. You may want to park your car by the public parking place next tothe farmers market or Coconut grove. Read more

Stunning location right on the water with views of waves crashing onshore. Fish-n-chips are tasty and so are the blue Hawaiians.... Went twice and service wasn't very good 2nd time. The BBQ pork rice ball appetizer is yummy. Read more

My friend group and I came here with a group of 12 for breakfast on two occasions. The wait was fairly quick both times. We got... sat ocean side with amazing views. The food is so good. We got many different dishes but my favorite was the Firecracker Shrimpwith macaroni salad. The cocktails were all so good too. We tried probably 8 of them and they were all top tier. Read more

Papa Kona offers a casual spot for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It also has some great night views of the sunset and the ocean!... The food was amazing and the prices were reasonable.

Absolutely remarkable! We did schedule our wedding here last yr. But due to the "C" word, the state was only allowing 10 people... gathered outside and inside. We weren't expecting to get the deposit back, but alas, the amazing people at Papa Kona gave usgift cards! We just celebrated our honeymoon and ate primarily at Papa Kona. Everything was fantastic! Plus the service isoutstanding!???? Read more
