    We were the first people in the restaurant and somehow many other tables got their food long before we did. We had edamame, sea bass sliders and a basic salad and a cup of coffee. The food was decent but nothing outstanding.

    Sat at the bar by myself. Another party sat after me and was served first, I wasn’t in a hurry so I didn’t mind but as the meal progressed and the service lacked further and further, it became problematic. My steak and salad came out at the same time- the server offers to hold the steak for me but told me it would become overcooked under heat, so I took both. The steak was ordered medium rare and arrived a medium well- I was not checked on or asked how it was at any point. Overall, the bartender was nice but neglected every other aspect of his job, not even having a wine tool to open a bottle for me so another variety was offered. I will not be returning.

    This review is based on visiting Valentine's Day. The noise level was very high and it was difficult to hear any conversations. The menu selection was limited and they did not have bread. The wine list was limited as well. Service was OK but not stellar. I probably will not go back to this restaurant.

    Good was great, a little put off as I asked for appetizers to come first. Ordered drinks. But my main entree came out before my appetizer and drink. A little bizarre. Food was great, server was good. Just didn’t live up to expectations of what I thought Kona Grill was going to be. Table was wobbly. A lot of minor details that shouldn’t be minor details from such establishment

    We went to Kona Grill to celebrate a Galentine's lunch! Everything was great, from the appetizers, to the entrees, to the dessert. The filet and seafood pasta did not disappoint! There was also a good selection of mocktails to enjoy. Our server was great too and I highly recommend enjoying a meal or happy hour here!
