A relaxed location with a beautiful view. Service was great. Portions were more than I could eat. The calamari with slaw and fries were delicious. The chili garlic shrimp with fried rice was the best shrimp we've ever had. The Blue Hawaiis were great too! Overall this was a great place to enjoy our
Very nice place to get a drink and watch the sunset. The staff was nice and helpful. Got the poke bowl and the poke wrap. Both were very flavorful and fresh. Lots of good choices on the menu.
This is a good place to go when nearby restaurants have no openings for dinner (not an insult). The panoramic ocean view is great (although ours was obstructed by rain). Tons of seating, and friendly service. The food was pretty good, and reasonably priced for Hawaii. The vibe was low energy and qui
Excellent view. Very relaxed, expect to spend some time just watching the water. Great place to see the sunset or watch the horizon when it's cloudy. We did happy hour. Edamame, spring rolls, shrimp wontons were all excellent, as was the gecko cocktail!
We ordered the Grilled Mahi Mahi plate which my friend really enjoyed with fried rice option. The fish and chips was another option we picked and that was good also. The coffee was good and so was the Dr. pepper. We got there just before sunset and the sun was strong so we sat inside the covered sea
A hidden gem a little south of Kona to watch the sunset. We had the special of the day, bacon wrapped filet, and teriyaki chicken. Beautiful view of the ocean and we were there at sunset. Sam Choy’s has a local vibe and laid back atmosphere. Service was friendly, efficient, and responsive. They did
The food was great and happy hour prices were more than reasonable. The drinks were just okay and we weren't a fan of the paper plates and plastic forks. The sunset view was amazing!
Amazing views! The food was decent. We got the luau burger. Ask for crispy fries.
Really pretty view and almost never busy when we go! I'm sure it's because we are there around lunch time or early dinner so there is never a wait and we get happy hour prices! I think happy hour goes until 6pm and includes cocktails and appetizers. We always enjoy our experience and the food it gre
Sam Choy’s has a wonderful scenic view of the ocean and the sunset, the highlight of this restaurant. Lovely fireplace tables and torches on the lanai. The food was good; I tried the Hawaiian style ribs and the egg rolls, and they were quite good. The sauces were a bit sweet/unbalanced, but still qu
Love the sunset view and happy hour at this restaurant which has both a great view and fire tables. We were also there twice for lunch as well and its perfect for that time of day too. Lunch had a more chill vibe and our pick of places to sit with no wait. The food is very affordable and very tasty
VERY deceiving. At first I thought this place hoity toity restaurant. Then when we walked in, there were barely any customers so I thought the staff were just slacking off. We sat down to where ever we wanted to since there were not too many customers. Hubby ordered the fish and chips and I had the
Stopped in for our last night in Hawaii. We lucked out and were treated to a spectacular view of the sunset. Our server, Phil was very personable and hustled to get our beverage order submitted before the end of happy hour. He also offered opinions on the menu. To top it off, he offered to snap a fa
It was a great happy hour, great drinks & the fish & chips were delicious 😋 We also tried the Ono taco & blackened shrimp 🌮- 👌 fabulous 😋❤️
Soooooooo I want to give 5 stars but I can't- solely for the reason that all food is served with disposable cutlery and plates. The happy hour was decent - great $7 cocktails and beer and wine options. Also decent pupus on offer for around $10 each. And - a sunset to die for if you're lucky :) Ho
Service is Excellent! Food is great!! I love the half rack ribs. Moist, and tender. I also love their location, because you can see the ocean from your table. The bar is nice, which gives points to the ambience of the restaurant.
