Our first time at Kona. It’s decorated tastefully with a bit of an island vibe. We received a friendly greeting from the front of staff and were seated in a nice big, private booth. We started with the crab Rangoon which was excellent. We shared a house salad - it was fresh and delicious with a yummy house made dressing. We had the ribeye steak accompanied by potatoes gratin and some crisp veggies. The steak was tender and delicious. We also ordered the sea bass tacos which were also excellent- a very generous portion of perfectly cooked fish and some fresh tangy salsa, guacamole and coleslaw. Everything was perfect.

Best Loco Moco ever. Started with the tempura artichoke hearts which were cooked to perfection with a very light tempura coating and served with an excellent sauce. Enjoyed a couple of Elvis Presley cocktails that were incredible. Definitely would recommend this place. The service is always a balance of friendly and professional and the kitchen is always “on point”. Thank you Billy Quon, another awesome evening at one of your restaurants.
