Restaurants near Villages at Mauna Lani

Amazing service . Alfred took such great care of us and made sure we got a picture of us with the sunset. Food was delicious . Magical night

We were tired from touristing and arrived early for our reservation but they were able to seat us right away. Not on the patio sadly. I have no idea how you get a table there. Server was very good and attentive, and the food was great. We shared the spring rolls I had the ribs. Given it’s $32 for 6 and only $39 for 12, I went for the full rack so to have leftovers for tomorrow’s dinner (eating out in Hawaii is NOT cheap. We only go out ever 2-3 nights) My wife had the prawn spaghetti squash dish which also is a generous portion and had some leftovers No room for dessert. Fairly efficient, I think we were out of there in an hour.

Service was attentive and wonderful. The ambience is unbearable at sunset made better by the innovative menu. We will certainly come back for more celebrations on the Big Island!

Canoe House has been one of our favorites on the Island for several years. It is a perfect location for sunset dinners and an outstanding dining experience. Again, they did not disappoint. Highlights were perfectly done filet, swordfish and kampachi with garlic fried rice as a side. Wonderful flavors, well balanced, and perfect portions. Starters were corn ribs (a favorite ) and snap peas with goat cheese. Prices are at the higher end, but the value is spot on. We always try and eat here once during our trips to the island.

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?
