Best Brunch Restaurants in Kawaihae

We were very pleasantly surprised by Hawai’i Calls in the Waikoloa Marriott. Great food, wonderful setting and life music when we were there on a Saturday evening.

The ambiance and setting could not be more picturesque. The food was incredible with flavor. Mediterranean inspired, selections are intended to be shared family style. We had the bread balloon, with a side order of the spicy aioli (pretty mild spice), zucchini chips w tzatziki, ahi steak with orzo, ali’i mushrooms and the broccolini which were grilled and made with lemon juice, garlic and crushed red peppers. Zucchini chips are a must if you’re trying to satisfy your savory palate and the seared ahi steak will melt in your mouth. Service and hospitality were outstanding from the valet to the host stand to the servers. My water glass was never empty! Also, there is live music every Monday! The artist was incredibly musically gifted, his acoustic talent was evident. The open air/face restaurant allows the stunning view of Hawaii and the sunset is a short walk from the restaurant to the beach shore front. Looking for romance and delectable food choices? Look no further

Had a nice meal but the environment is much more bar’ish than fine dining. Nice staff, great local artist for live music, food was delicious and perfectly prepared. They charge a fee for Credit cards which I don’t agree with personally so that knocks them down a bit even though it’s only a few bucks… it adds up in the overall experience.

A large brunch buffet with many options. Recommend an early reservation as certain were not replenished shortly after arriving for 1:45 reservation.

Absolutely amazing experience! Fabulous food, pizazz, great service, wonderful patrons, and idyllic atmosphere. We will be back! My only complaint is it is impossible to sample a half of bite of everything they offer. By 5pm I regretted not sampling more items. I missed out on so many incredible foods.
