★★★★★ 5/5
Loved it!! We had the half chicken & ribs, and the special s&s ribs. Both meals were fantastic, really couldn't fault the food, even the bread was beautiful that came with it. If you want just simple, but super tasty food this is the place to go! They haven't tried to make it fancy or posh but focused on flavour and food quality. I left a very happy human and hope to make it back again before my time in hilo is up

Looking for a little slice of the past. Don's Grill, this hidden gem right in Hilo is that place. A simple diner with diner food and desserts, it's a nice place to bring the family and not break the bank. We're so glad we found out about this little restaurant. I've lived here for over 20 years and never knew it was there until last year. Local spot for sure.

Had the Reuben since I can't go to a state and not try their Reuben. Food was fresh and the portions were more than enough.

We found this local diner-type restaurant from searching google reviews and they weren’t wrong! After a long day of hiking it was great to grab quick “comfort” food from an extensive menu. The service was excellent, the place was clean and bright, and the food hit the spot!

We've had a lot of bad food on the island the past 3 days. It was really nice for all three of us to get a really great hot meal that we all loved. Very affordable. We had a chicken parmesan sandwich, a Philly cheese steak sandwich and spaghetti. Our server was super nice. We tipped 20%

Attentive service, food hit the spot, good dessert too. If you get steak, prepare for it to taste lightly seasoned like how it says on the menu. Good for those who are watching sodium. I personally added a lot of salt and pepper on top.

The server was very kind and helpful! The tri dish was great to split. Mengo cheese cake didn't really have a strong mango flavor, but was a really good cheese cake. Mud pie was an amazing ice cream pie! The top layer is creamy chocolate with a fudge layer then the bottom layer is a wonderful caramel ice cream with chocolate cookie crumb. Would definitely come here again if I was not going back to MN.
