Guests of the Island Breeze Luau will be amazed with a display of authentic Polynesian activities, cuisine, and performances. Island Breeze Luau, located in right on the edge of the ocean of the King Kamehameha Hotel is rated the best lu'au on the Big Isl
The Luau is not worth the cost of admission. The food was mediocre and the show was average at best. It rained on us the whole time and although they couldn't do anything about the weather they didn't even attempt to cover the food with canopy's or anything so the food was wet when we served ourselves. This was the first Luau that I have been to that makes you buy the Lei, for the cost of the luau that should be included as they do at other places.Aloha ybarraness,Thank you for taking the time to review our Luau on Trip Advisor. We do greatly appreciate your review as it does let us know how we stand in comparison to other Luaus. We sincerely apologize for your disappointment and inconvenience. We try and provide our guests with the best experience that we can. We take the feedback of our guests very seriously as it helps us to improve, and we thank you for your time and we hope you will consider joining us again on your future trips to the Big Island.

My husband had read about Kava bars and wanted to stop by and try it out. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We heard good things about the food, but didn't try it. It was a fun experience and if you are in the area, it was a good addition to our trip.

A former Wendy's restaurant completely redone.
Sam Choy is a legend in Hawaii. But he is not in the kitchen of this restaurant. The description of the food was tempting, but it just did not quite deliver. We had the fresh fish, and it was dry.My suggestion. Go for Sunset. The view is the BEST. They do great cocktails. The pupu menu is standard but well done ( calamari was great!)And as other reviews note, the staff is great. Friendly and professional

We stopped in for an after dinner cocktail, the ocean view and sound of the surf was fantastic. Her Mai Tai was decent, nothing special. My Mojito was forgettable. Not really impressed with the drinks, although they were quite generous with the alcohol. Service was good, but we left kind of disappointed.

We asked for a opened clean table and were told unavailable they sat us in the sun. Then right after we got seated they sat golf attired people at table we asked for we placed our order first yet mentioned table received food and superior service 1st. Great deserts reason I gave a 3. Below average customer appreciation

âUMEKEâ is the Hawaiian word for âbowl.â At any Umekeâs eating establishment, a majority of menu items are designed to be served in bowls. Owner and Head Chef Nakoa Pabre is a seasoned professional who takes pride in giving customers the freshest, most ex
Firstly, I wasn't expecting this place to be a sports bar so that was kind of disappointing. Secondly, we were SO looking forward to this poke - but the poke we'd bought at the local supermarket (Foodland in Waikoloa) was way better than Umeke's. The fish tacos were also good but nothing special. Pretty disappointed as we were expecting this place to be really good! The staff was, on the other hand, amazing! Very friendly and helpful.Aloha,Thank you for your honest review. We feel sorry that you did not enjoy your meal with us. This is not the normal experience one should have at our restaurants. What makes our poke and seafood dishes so special is that we only serve the freshest fish from Hawaiian waters, with each batch of poke made in small portions to ensure the highest quality and freshness. We incorporate both traditional Hawaiian recipes and also infuse popular local dishes with modern twists. Umekes has received numerous awards for our poke and seafood dishes, and have even been featured on a few Food Network TV shows.If you have any suggestions on how we can improve or if you could provide further details about your negative experience, we would love to hear your thoughts as we are always looking to improve. If you could please email [email protected] we would sincerely appreciate your input.We hope you will give us another chance someday soon,Umekes Management Team

First of all, the address given here is wrong. The recent new address, a much larger location, is 75-5864 Walua Road, Kailua-Kona, HI. 'll try to get that corrected in the listing. Second, it is every bit as good as people are saying in the reviews. Friendly, helpful staff, excellent food and drinks. We tried the "nacho" appetizer, which replaces corn chips with crispy chicken skin and some unique toppings; it was delicious, and split that and the Mento Bento, a dish featuring chicken, beef ribs and Spam (!) with eggs, which was also great. The two different margaritas we ordered were also excellent. We plan to eat there several more times during our stay.

This was a surprise find. Though the locals were well acquainted!! :) The price is definitely right here, so was the service and it was a pretty standard but well executed breakfast. Lots of options and some really good local favourite varieties of loco moco. No view, not fancy, but good breakfast for decent price served by nice staff.

Umekes prides itself in serving dishes using local ingredients that are of the highest quality. We source as many ingredients as possible from local fisherman, farmers, and ranchers. Our poke is always created with only the freshest fish from Hawaiian wat
We stopped here for lunch while visiting the area. Parking can be tricky but itâs worth the effort for good, fresh local food at non-tourist prices. We ate at the benches outdoors. It was a more authentic, and probably tastier, lunch than we would have gotten at a nearby tourist stop. Aloha,Mahalo for your comments. We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed your meal with us! We hope to have you join us again someday soon to try out more favorites. Have a wonderful day,Umekes Management Team

Our "take-out" style shop specializes in poke bowls and plates, featuring a variety of locally caught ahi tuna. Our poke is always fresh, never frozen...guaranteed! We also serve shrimp, tako and taegu poke. For those in your ohana who do not eat fish we
Ate her in 2013, last time we were on the Big Island. The poke here is fantastic! Added feather in their cap, they are serving in compostable take away containers. Prices have gone up (almost doubled) about 30% in last 6 years...but still competitive with other places and I think BEST poke in the area for sure.
