Best Fine Dining Restaurants in Kohala Coast

Due to the ongoing remodeling of the hotel, there were areas blocked off and the toilet was a trailer. The menu was not what we hoped for on Valentine’s Day… It was more of a lunch menu. Not the relaxed atmosphere or food we’re used to from the Hau Tree. Would not have booked that night had I known.

We had a 5-star experience at Meredia! We were celebrating both Valentine’s Day and our wedding anniversary. Amazing view of the sunset made for the perfect romantic backdrop. Indiana was our server and her upbeat personality definitely delivered the aloha. We followed her food recommendations, which were tailored to our gluten-free dietary needs, and enjoyed a wonderful meal featuring scallops for my wife and paella for me. Afterwards we shared an absolutely fantastic cheesecake for dessert. Five stars across the board- highly recommended!

This kitchen prepares amazing and unique dishes. We have been diners here since Alan Wong was the chef and the current menu meet that standard.The lobster tempura is reminiscent of Allan, prepared slightly differently, but just as delicious. The radish salad is an absolute must. We also feel that the garlic fried rice is the perfect compliment, to your protein of choice. It is definitely hard to beat the setting and the entire staff is absolutely outstanding and they work perfectly in unison to provide amazing service. He will definitely feel the Aloha Spirit at the Canoe House.

My wife and I had a very nice dinner at The Copper Bar. Her Mahi was better than my Butterfish. The view is dramatic because of the high ceilings. The waitress did a good job, but had a lot of tables to manage. The singer and hula dancer were excellent. Although we think Meridian and Manta are superior, we certainly had a nice time.

Beautiful open aired covered and uncovered dining areas with beautiful ocean and sunset views. My sweet curry shrimp appetizer and macadamia nut crusted mahi mahi were excellent. Service was courteous and attentive. Live entertainment (piano and saxaphone) was very nice background music. Expensive--$190 for one person.
