Disappointed I had only spent one night in Monterey and only had one chance to eat here.. I totally loved this place and so did my wife. Great value and fantastic food and cocktails. Jawaiian Jerk Chicken melted in my mouth and the flavours hit my in the face like a big left hook. Duke's Luau Pork was the jab... More

We had dinner here one night during out visit....the place was packed! Granted it was a sat. night so understandable....we waited about 30 minutes for a table and enjoyed a few drinks while we waited....they were yummy. It was very noisy and crowded so if thats not your thing...maybe try someplace else. We both enjoyed our meals and service was... More

Had an early dinner with my husband and two little boys in tow (3 yrs and 1 yr) around 5:30p. Atmosphere was great - Hawaiian and festive. Happy hour pricing great on selected drinks and apps ($5 ea). Kid-friendly menu - kids ate quesadilla and rice & beans...I had pork luau plate (delicious) and husband had seared tuna (he enjoyed)....

I've had the pleasure of dining at many of Monterey's Cannery Row institutions over the years but I must agree with many here that dining out at Hula's Island Grill is "special".

However's Hula's was an absolute delight.... More

The food is faultless, the service is great and it has a lively atmosphere - a great dinner out! If you're in a group, get the big drinks!

Really great range of unique and tasty foods. I especially love that they have a gluten free menu as well. Also fantastic that they cook using rice bran oil! Every meal that our table had was delicious, with each dish as lively and colourful as the hawaiian decor. The service was also refreshingly genuine, helpful and friendly. I'm looking forward...

Hula's has so much atmosphere! We enjoyed sitting at the bar while waiting on a table & got to interact some with the local crowd. Everyone was very friendly. Our meal was excellent, large portions and reasonably priced. I had teriyaki steak, husband had coconut crusted mahi & we shared a huge piece of coconut layer cake for dessert-yum!! Meal... More

Doesn't look much from the outside but there is a good choice on the menu if you eat meat or fish. with massive cakes for after! plenty of locals came in for dinner whilst we were there
