Some of our favorite comments from customers:

“We were blown away.”

“The interior is clean contemporary, the menu is magnificent, and the wine list is broad.”

“…appeals to the carnivore in him and the whatever-itarian in me.”

“Not your ordinary waitress, but intelligent and professional.”

“We’re thinking of going back for lunch tomorrow, if that’s any indication.”

“…the food was outstanding and the service was even better than that, which is saying something. You can rest assured that I will always recommend your place to any I know who is planning on visiting Hilo.”

Consistently crowded, Hilo Bay Café fast became a local favorite with a large and loyal following of regulars, special occasion guests, and many visitors to the Big Island. Already the restaurant has generated national media attention in magazines such as Food and Wine, Gourmet, and Sunset, and it has won awards, including the prestigious Hale ‘Aina award several years running.
