The food was excellent! Our server was horrible .. we were there celebrating a Birthday for our dear friend.. needless to say our visit was a disappointment..
Long time customer!. I love Kona Grill! Nothing beats coming here on the weekends to enjoy an amazing bloody mary and sushi!
Great goat cheese and margarita flat bread as well as the chicken satay appetizers. Select appetizers are half off during happy hours!
Excellent Food!. Kona Grill is definitely one of my favorite places to dine. We usually order sushi as our appetizer. Our favorites are definitely the Las Vegas roll, and the Volcano roll, and would highly recommend you give them a try. Our entrees usually consist of the Macadamia Chicken, which is very good, and the Pork Loin. The pork is my personal favorite! You get about five medallions of pork loin laid on top of bok choy, which is perfectly cooked. One thing I’ve noticed is how flavorful their vegetables are. I love them. I would also highly recommend the bloody mary with your meal. The best I’ve had in a long time.
Happy Hour. Absolutely love this restaurant. Although i can honestly say I have never had thier suishi. The rest of their menu is delish. Their happy hours specials are some of the best in the city. Some of them regular priced can be a bit over priced though.

Happy at Happy Hour. Its true, its all about the HH. We arrived at around 330p on a Fri afternoon and only had to "stalk" out a table for a few minutes before we pounced on it. There is no 1st come 1st served in the bar area. If you get to sit out on the patio, it makes for good people watching. They have a great drink selection from beer to wine to cocktails. I had a couple of pomegranate cosmos, not too sweet & definitely w some vodka-nice. We ordered some calamari, it could have used some more fry time but was still good. The dumplings filled w ground chicken 'n veggies, very tasty & kinda fat. Then we had some spicy tuna & crab rolls, they were both fresh but the tuna seemed to be missing the spicy, the crab had a crabby flavor, both decent for the price for sure. Just wish they didn't have such an awkward seating system, people scoping out tables of patrons finishing their meal while they hover nearby watching as you sip your last drink, chew your last bite hoping your going to get your check and not another round.
LOVE this place!. Happy Hour is where it is at! You won't regret trying everything on the menu during happy hour. The drinks are especially cheap here. All in all, GREAT place!
Great. We had my girlfriends birthday party there 2 weeks ago, had a party of 12 and we all enjoyed the food and drinks. Some recommendations, try the angry edamame( if you like edamame and spicy food, you'll love it!), the bloody Mary(best I ever had). Our party had everything from the burgers to the pizza and of course the sushi, which was good, can't say the best, but it was still very good. The servers were very helpful, and friendly.
Awesome food! Great place on a date. Get reservations if they have any. The wait might be long.
What a nice suprise! The food was awsome, the atmosphere was nice. Price is very resonable for the shopping center. Service was great, highly recommend!
This restaurant is added to my husband and I's list of going-to-visit-again restaurants in San Antonio! Yay!
This is one of my favorite restaurants when I visit San Antonio. Everything I've had is delicious. The waiter was kinda enough to ask if I had any allergies or dietary restrictions before he put in my order. I had the avocado egg rolls and the shrimp tacos. The egg rolls are a personal favorite of mine. They are amazing. Pretty pricey though at $20 for 2 egg rolls. The waiter let me the know the tacos were a little spicy. They were but they were delicious. They had about 3-4 shrimp per taco so I was able to taste the shrimp in every bite. I can't wait until I'm in town again to try some more dishes.
Nice place in La Cantera to stop and grab food, but prices are outrageous for portions and quality. I expect my sushi to be a little pricy, but if a dish costs $30, I expect the portion to be reasonable. Everything was tasty, but when we needed a refill or any assistance, it took forever for us to find our server. Would strongly recommend going during happy hour between 2-6 on weekdays if planning to eat here, tons of reasonably priced options for happy hour. Restaurant is pretty and modern, but music gets a bit loud for conversation at times. Would recommend the patio if at all available.
Great service from our server, Lexx. She was attentive and pleasant. I had the macadamia French toast from the brunch menu and it was fantastic! I also had the Avocado rolls which were good. Great presentation of food, however the prices seemed a bit high for the portions served. All-in-all, it was a good experience.
The food here was amazing! I have to say this is some of the best sushi I had in Texas and San Antonio (I’m from the east coast here with the military so I know good sushi) since I’ve been to Texas (over a year) I have had mediocre food to say the least. Everything we had today was great. I had the prime rib which was good (didn’t love the mash potato’s but I’m not a big potato person) and my boyfriend had the ribeye and he said it was amazing and loved the fingerling potato’s. Prices are a bit high but since this was some great food it was worth it. 10/10 would recommend
Tasty, Crowded, Loud 🍽️
Service could have been more attentive; but the Cilantro-Lime Chicken Skewers were extremely flavorful, and more than made up for it. ☺️
Unfortunately, The Happy Hour Menu doesn't apply on holidays; so if you're coming in with friends during a holiday week, be aware appetizers and drinks are full price. 😬
I can always rely on Kona Grill to deliver a consistent and great service. The food never disappoints and always has me leaving satisfied. The KG Cheeseburger is to die for. Have to cherish restaurants who can always deliver what they offer.
Mattie is a great waitress. She was attentive, easy going, and nice. She made sure to keep our drinks refilled and had all the accommodations we asked for. She even asked about allergies, which no worker had ever asked up until that point and I have been to Kona grill on numerous occasions.
This review is not about the amazing food this review is about the amazing server named Mattie. I was having a rough day until I decided to grab something to eat & was greeted by a bubbly personality. She was attentive & always had a smile. Her calm & pleasant demeanor made the atmosphere & experience that much more enjoyable. Needless to say I will definitely be requesting her next time I pop in. Kona Grill has a good one on their hands!

When you first enter you're automatically greeted by a loud but upbeat style hangout location. There's lots of beautiful decoratives and interior designing that gives it a cozy and well-lit tone where you'd want to celebrate or enjoy time with family and friends. Although it doesn't necessarily scream "family oriented" it is kid-friendly and they are just as welcome so please feel free to bring all ages with you!
Mind that all of these events took place during Mother's Day so it was very busy and crowded during this time and the staff were in a rush.
• Inside was very crowded upon arrival as everyone, like ourselves, were there to celebrate Mother's Day. The wait time was short, but it's highly advised to book a reservation so that you get priority placing
• The inside was fairly clean although we did have some utensils that were dirty and the bathroom floor was messy (the toilets were spotless from what I found though).
• a lot of the dishes come in big portions and will be filling even if you are sharing the meals. They offer to-go trays so you can take leftovers with you!
In terms of the food, everything tasted amazing and came out while still hot so we enjoyed the meal. I'd say out of all the foods the rolls and penne were among my favorites!
• The Las Vegas Roll was savory with a slight sweetness and had a nice, light crunchy texture from the fried exterior. The sauce and noodles paired well together and offered an interesting new taste.
• The rainbow roll had a fresh and cooling umami flavor that wasn't fishy at all and featured beautiful presentation. It's the perfect size to share if you're trying sushi for the first time or ordering multiple entrees.
• For the Ribeye Meatballs I didn't eat the macadamia nuts (I'm not a fan of raw nuts) but the meatballs themselves were well seasoned and the mashed potatoes were soft with a sweet sauce. The savoury aroma and the firm but tender nature of the dish was a nice pairing.
• The Lemon Garlic Penne had a fresh citrus smell that felt perfect as a summer dish. The flavor felt open with the earthy feel of the tomato and arugula and the small spice of the chili flakes that would dance in the back of the throat. The garlic bread was pleasantly crunchy, seasoned, and also included cheese (it makes for a great dipping into the remaining sauce). It was a very vibrant experience in looks and taste.
• The NY Strip Steak was probably one our least favorites, but it wasn't bad. It was a bit difficult to cut through as it was partially dry and tough and slightly unserseasoned, but it was still a nice taste with a lovely grilled aroma and a small kick of spice. The potatoes paired with it were crispy and soft and well seasoned (a great compliment to the steak) and the offered sauce was decent (but we preferred the food without the sauce so we didnt use it much).
My favorite experience besides the food was the friendliness of the staff and how attentive they were despite being overwhelmed by so many customers. They greeted everyone at the door, made effort to check-in with tables, were kind when we had requests for services (asking for new utensils, extra plates, etc.) and even handed out flowers to the mothers as a gift. I appreciated this little detail the most as it wasn't something the restaurant had to do, but chose to include just to make the experience all the better. Kona Grill pairs great service with an energetic atmosphere and flavorful food that I'm sure anyone would love to experience and is why I highly recommend for anyone especially for hosting celebrations!
We were out shopping and decided to stop here. Mid-lunch time and we didn’t have to wait very long at all. Honestly, my only complaint is how FILTHY the outside patio floors are. I was wearing brand new white shoes and when we left, they were caked on the bottom with black slime. Definitely needs a power wash.
Other than that, food came out quick and hot. I can’t remember our servers name, but he was very attentive and kind.
Our waitress Mattie was wonderful! She served us right away, the food came out super fast and she was super kind and helpful throughout the entire meal. It was our first time eating at Kona Grill, and we’ll definitely come back and ask for Mattie!
