Had the mushroom & Swiss burger w/ fries, was delish! Plus they let me order right at 2pm (at closing)... Thanks so much!! (0:
Got myself the special today, lobster salad with ranch dressing & a red cream soda. Fast service, always with a smile & a thank you. Lobster salad was delicious with fresh greens, tomatoes, shredded carrots & purple cabbage. Gotta try it as a melt the next time it's on the menu.

Blame it on "Shrinkflation?"
I believe the portion size was small for the price. $12 for one Mahi burger with cheap buns, and not a whole lot of fries... didn't have to skimp on the fries... a bit dissapointing. No coleslaw either... 😭
Mahi patties were small and thin. Maybe it was an off day... maybe other items are a better deal? I will try other plates and will see if it changes my opinion.
Pete's Belly Bustaz serves the BEST KOREAN CHICKEN I have ever eaten! You can tell, a lot of their food is made with so much love. You absolutely godda go try it!
Delicious local food and friendly staff! Encouraging messages everywhere too♥️! Take-out meals & desserts + party platters. Look for the food pictures on the front door on the side of a small medical plaza that's next to a rehab center. Mohouli park near by has restrooms and a covered eating area if you want a close place to eat a few minutes drive away. This is not too far from Rainbow Falls*
It's not a dine-in business, take-out only. But, the food is great and the service is great and the people are friendly and courteous. Prices are reasonable and they give a good amount. A little out of the way, located in a medical center but worth it.
I love Pete's Belly Bustazs ❣ The owners are very nice. I recently had the Hawaiian plate, which had the biggest laulau I've ever seen sold at a retail establishment. It had lots of lu'au and even fish 🐟. Also, anytime I need to fast before doing labs, I use the small Clinical Labs on the 2nd floor ( little to no wait time ). For anyone having to fast for 12 hours prior to testing, this is the best way. Food is waiting downstairs
got the korean fried chicken lunch plate and it was soooo good
Great little hole in the wall. A small lunch shop that serves both local and Mexican dishes. Opens for takeout only from breakfast to lunchtime.
Very friendly staff. Food is outstanding and stays consistent between each visit.
My favorite spot and eat here between 4-6 times per month when in town 😋
A little mom & pop store where the people are super-friendly and there's a nice variety of food to choose from: everything from burgers, fries, and sandwiches, to tacos, quesadillas, and chili, to various local and Asian foods (there's also a nice selection of breakfast choices). You'd have to be pretty seriously picky to not find something to like here. They aren't open for dinner, but are a great place for breakfast and lunch.
Update: so I moved away from Hilo for four years, moved back, and the first time I showed up again they recognized me through the mask and hat I was wearing. Felt amazing. 😄 It's a little different now physically as you stay outside to order, but the service is still the same level of quality.
Been coming to Pete's Belly Bustaz for a while now. Love the atmosphere. Its only take out. But they are husband and wife own franchise. Friendly people with a homely attitude. Food are all home made very good. There chicken salad is my favorite its only a special made on a certain day but worth the wait. All in all food is excellent. But never go on lunch time they are slammed with customers.
