Reviews for Kona Grill - Denver in Meridian, ID
The service and food was amazing! Went to celebrate our grandchild's graduation! We were a large group of 9, so we definitely... had reservations and would recommend even for two as it was very busy. Our server was very attentive and accommodating! The Surfn Turf was delicious with a perfect med rare ribeye and 4 kinds of tuna sushi! Husband had the SeaBass and loved it. Everyoneenjoyed their dishes and when we come back to Idaho to visit we will definitely return here! Read more
Have often wondered how good this place is as we've walked by, and now we know! We ate here tonight on our 25th anniversary.... Our wait time wasn't bad to get a table (did not have a reservation). It did seem a bit long to get waited on once at the table,but considering it seemed very busy and slightly understaffed, it wasn't beyond reason. Our server (and trainee) were excellent,knowledgeable, and friendly. We ordered the coconut shrimp from the sushi menu (asked for it to come early like an appetizer andit did) and it was so very delicious! For our entrees we split the macadamia nut chicken and the French dip. The French dip wason this delightful, almost fluffy, yet full, bread. I was not prepared for horse radish to be mixed in with the meat but it wasin just the right amount to compliment the melt in your mouth delight of a sandwich with the au jus. We asked for fries insteadof chips and the fries were good (could have been a bit warmer). All of that was worth returning for, but the macadamia nutchicken (which we almost didn't get because we are always eating chicken) was five star fantastic. The chicken was moist, soft,yet crispy and all the aspects of the plate and potatoes knocked it out of the park. Seeing a $70 check (we only drank water)felt very reasonable for the amount and taste of our meal. The staff and manager talked with us and rejoiced on our anniversarydate as well. We will be back!

This place is getting busier every time we visit! Staff is always happy and professional, despite of having all these entitied... guests . Our server Christian was great . He knew the menu very well . We had a checkerboard sushi as our appetizer, it can outquickly , the runner was super apologetic as she could only find one soy sauce dish ( the restaurant was beyond busy ) but sheimmediately came back to drop off another one., super nice girl ! We had the sweet chili salmon ; KG burger ; sweet Bleu salad ,and the grilled veggies for dinner . The salmon was fantastic ( with pork fried rice n green beans, top notch ; the burger wasfantastic , perfect temperature, fries were fresh , the dipping sauce , however , is a bit strong , we stick to ketchup , thesalad was very fresh ; the veggies with jasmine rice was prolly one of our favorite dishes . Another great experience for sure .Be nice to the serving staff please , you can tell they are working extra hard. Keep up the good work guys . Read more
We went in on a Friday night, and even though it was pretty busy the wait wasn’t long at all. We sat at the sushi bar and our... server Markus was super fast and attentive. We had sushi and drinks and everything was SO good!!! Ali was the sushi chef workingby us and he was super funny and made our time even better. The manager Garrett stopped by and checked on us too and was superfun to talk to. Overall the staff and the service made the night exceptional which was so awesome because we were celebratingour friend moving back into town. We will definitely going back!! Read more
Happy Holidays everyone! So this experience was average. The presentation of our meal was beautiful, colorful, and... eye-catching. I ordered a holiday beverage that included Grey Goose, cranberry, lime, a sugar rim coating. Although it looksdelicious, it actually tasted as if I had a straight 2 shots of pure vodka (so definitely can improve in flavor). The sushirolls that we ordered was "Coconut Shrimp" and the "Checkerboard" I would say it crumbled a bit to easily. It did have a mildtaste of the raw fish, maybe if the sushi rice had a better stick to it the flavors can enhance. I can say we enjoyed the salmonsalad and lemon garlic penne with chicken. It tasted delightful ???? Overall, the wait was as expected for the holiday season.I can say about a good 30 minutes before our food was presented. So pack a snack or order an appetizer if you are planning yournext trip there for the holidays! Read more
This place just beat the pants off ANYWHERE in Oregon to include Portland City Grill and Rudy’s in Salem. Ryan was an AMAZING... server and the food was exquisite, even with the kitchen running behind given it was Christmas. The dj was lit. That was thebest steak I’ve EVER had. I’m a small business owner in Oregon and date my wife a lot. This is our favorite place sofar!!! Read more
We enjoyed the ambience! The music was a little loud at first but when customers started coming in more they adjusted the... volume. Our server was fantastic, courteous and gave good suggestions. The food was really good and so was coffee. Iappreciated the cleanliness, contact tracing for Covid, and the staff wearing masks and not complaining about it. They also hadone time use disposable menus too. Although the food was pricey, I think overall it was worth it. I'll definitely be back here. Read more
It used to be so much better. We ordered off the happy hour menu last night, and I have to say quality wasn't what it once was.... We waited about 20 min for our Kona sliders, but it was over 40 min for our poke bowl and sushi roll. The crab roll used to beawesome, but now it has so little crab it's quite disappointing. Our server required prompting for basic items like utensils andcondiments, even after we asked with our order. Just telling it like it is... Read more
