This is a lovely restaurant on the ocean. Close in-town location so easy to walk to. Great bar and outdoor waiting area with live music while you wait for a table. We had the seared ahi and the mixed grill and everything was fresh and...delicious. A very lovely, romantic outdoor setting with ocean views everywhere. This is one of the best restaurants in Kona. Not to be missed!More

We have been vacationing in Kona over 41 years now. Huggo's is in the top 3 restaurants for fine dining here. They also offer free parking IF you snap a picture of your license plate and share it with the hostess. Great ocean views with...tiki torches, great bar (Female "Alex" is a wonderful bartender, as is her other female bartender too.) However, be aware that they don't take reservations, which I think is a big mistake. Get there when they open. As for their menu....Excellent fish but only two steak selections after the pandemic. They are their signature teriyaki sliced steak and another (NY?) steak. I would prefer they bring back prime rib and/or fillet mignon on their menu. The wait staff is beyond friendly, efficient, and professional. Superb service!More

This restaurant is within walking distance from our hotel in a beautiful location on the shoreline. It was a lovely evening until the meal came. We ordered skillet shrimp and it was the toughest most chewy shrimp we’ve ever had. At about $25.00 you’d expect...better. It was so bad we couldn’t finish it. I’d go back for a cocktail and the entertainment but will never eat here again.More

This is probably the best place for near fine dining on the big island. The views are incredible and the service is amazing. The food is the best part of the experience with excellent options for everyone including vegans and vegetarians. I really appreciated the...effort that the proprietors took in creating an excellent, all inclusive menu. They also offer vegan and vegetarian variants of their most popular menu items with lower prices! I’ll definitely go back.More

We went here on our last night in Hawaii, after visiting their next-door "On the Rocks" bar for happy hour. Our server was great & the location is really nice. We enjoyed the complimentary bread & crackers. We both had the Kahaki fish dinner which...was a bit underwhelming. Very buttery and not a lot of flavor. The rice was mushy and flavorless. The portion of fish was small for the $45 price tag.More

We wanted to have a few drinks after the 4th of July fireworks and chose to sit at the fireplace outside. The female, brunette bartender was extremely rude in her behavior and her choice of words. “Do you need something?” was the first thing she...said to us. If you want to be treated like you are a nuisance to the bar staff then this is the place for you. We left after this.More

Outstanding - Must Visit! We had a wonderful meal ocean side. Hubby ordered NY Prime steak and I had salad with shrimp. Delicious food. Our server Victor was outstanding. He was personable, professional and efficient. AND we watched the sunset!

We celebrated our 50th anniversary with our sons and their families (party of nine) at Huggo’s. My wife wanted to dine by the ocean, we had a table next to the water with a beautiful view of the ocean and stunning sunset. Everyone was well...pleased with the pupus and entrees. Service was great, too. The complementary lime pie was delicious.More

Wonderful dinner we had the special seafood dish it was delicious. The cocktail was special as well. The Service was fantastic especially Jenna who had great knowledge of the food and drink menu her lovely happy nature added to our wonderful dinner. We will return

Cool place to watch the sunset, live music-but they have a 2 hour limit so if you plan on having a few drinks and relaxing this isn’t the place. The waitress we had was very nice and quick with drink orders and food. The food...was average-I had the pulled pork.More

This was our first visit to Huggo's. We arrived before 5:30 as they don't take reservations. We had a great table with a good ocean view. The food was excellent. The Caesar salad was the best either of us had ever had. The coffee cheesecake...was also amazing. Service was +/- but I think our server was just overworked. The place was hopping.More

My son and his family were to meet us at 5:30pm in front of Huggo's restaurant. We needed everyone present before we could be seated. My son called and said there was a car accident, and they would be delayed. We did have a reservation....I spoke with the manager about our situation. She came to the rescue. Not only did she save our table, but also gave us a quiet table in a preferred location. When My son and his family arrived we dined along with viewing a fabulous sunset and beach. The meals were terrific and so was the Hula dancing. We returned for dinner another evening. The staff and food were exceptional. It's one place you should try.
