One of the favorites of Big Island locals, this is the best-known restaurant in the sleepy town of Hawi. It has won local awards, which immediately sets it apart from the many over-hyped, overly glamorous, over-priced restaurants in the resorts. The signature menu item here is not in the food section; rather it's the delicious passionfruit margarita. If you are in the mood to eat, any of the fish dishes are recommended. Live entertainment is featured on the weekends, and live karaoke provides dubious listening pleasure on weekday evenings. A gallery of local art is onsite.
