Delicious food, super prompt service, nice and friendly servers, affordable dinner- excellent spot!
The teriyaki chicken is now my daughters’ favorite! The Portuguese soup was delicious. The linguine bolognese super well portioned.
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 cara
I've been eating at Don's Grill since it opened and it's one of my personal favorites in Hilo for local style comfort food. The restaurant itself can get a little cramped during busy times but the food has been consistently good for so many years, it doesn't matter once you're served your meal. They
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 focus
Great, little local place. Still pretty worried about Covid stuff (March 2023) so lots of people waiting outside to be seated or to pickup to-go food.
Very attentive and friendly people working here. Fried shrimp and fries was pretty good. Other food was just ok. Rounding my 4 up to a 5 because it’
This is a great Diner style of eating. Very clean and wonderfully fresh food. You wait outside the door to be seated and sanitizer is provided to sanitize your hands upon entry. The waiter/waitress are all friendly and efficient. The food came out quickly and the drinks were constantly refilled. The
Don’s reminded me of where all the locals go to. Like a diner, they had a good menu that covered all types of meals. They are definitely still skeptical social distancing, as they only allow groups to wait outside. Our waitress was super sweet and service was speedy. I went with the loco moco, a Haw
Excellent main items okay sides. Friendly staff. This is a place worth returning to. The Teri Chicken was great. Lasagna was delicious. Mixed veggies and mashed potatoes on the side nothing special. There are many more things that we want to try on the menu. Look at the menu and photos and you can p
A family friendly homestyle diner with classics and local items on the menu. Plenty of variety to choose from. Good service and straightforward pricing.
We were in Volcano on a Sunday night but the dining choices are extremely limited. So we decided to drive into Hilo for dinner. Don's Grill is really a diner experience. It has basic, solid food with a Hawaiian flair I ordered the mixed plate (grilled mahi mahi, chicken teriyaki, and a fried pork c
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'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%
Great service with great food!
Reuben sandwich was delicious and the coleslaw on the side was so good(sweeter than other coleslaw i had before). The chicken caesar salad was so fresh and nice with the piece of garlic bread.
Very friendly wait staff, good size portions, fast service.
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.
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
Simple and classic diner experience.
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!
Amazing pork cutlet and ribs. Big portions, bit pricey but not too much
