- Casey AndersonNovember 1, 2018Hard to beat the ocean views from this bar and restaurant on the sand at Anaehoomalu Bay. Come for lunch or dinner, and enjoy specialties like pineapple fried rice. Live entertainment in the evening.
Olivia SlutskyJanuary 26, 2016Great vibes = live music by the water. The poke and edamame are a must, skip the shrimp it was dry...I ended up giving the local resident cat, lava lava, some and she really enjoyed them.

Michael DunNovember 3, 2015Happy Hour starts at 3pm, and two drinks have $6 prices, the Mai Tai and Gilligan's Girl. The rest are all regular price. Both are definitely worth it!!

Noah WeissDecember 27, 2020Sunset views with long but worth it waits for the tasty tiki cocktails. The food was good too, like the ahi “nachos” and the pineapple chicken fried rice.
- DoubleDeuceJanuary 21, 2019The top place to view the sunset, is what everyone will tell you. And they are probably right. Amazing views, music and dancing.
Diya S.January 21, 2017One if the best place I have been to. Ahi Poke was delicious, pineapple rice was great. We also tried the FOB fish sandwich, highly recommend it. Gilligan's girl drink is a must!
Cara LauSeptember 19, 2016Great food on a great beach. You're so close to water, you can walk right in if you wanted. Although, if you're afraid of birds, check it out before you get a table.
- Krista MartinNovember 10, 2019Drinks were delicious! Food delicious and view was amazing! Sweet potato fries were cold but other than that it was great! I’d come back!
Great place for lunch! Not only did we love the location, but the food was good and the service was extremely friendly! The barbecue sauce is tasty and so is the fresh fish of the day sandwich.
Melissa RosenfieldApril 21, 2013Everything is delicious at this hidden gem. Get the sizzling shrimp and stand-up nachos. Happy hour has live music which makes this beach even more magical. Love love love!
RCJanuary 8, 2017Great drinks and great dessert (get the goodie jar)! Breezy with live music. The main dishes were not notable.
- Mackenzie P.July 7, 2016Great food and amazing sunset view. Only downside is always very crowded and no chance without reservation.
Don’t miss this gem of a place! Great food, great drinks, and one of the best locations you could ever imagine!
Matt Ta-MinJune 2, 2015Great place to drink and watch the sun go down. Tables go right out onto the beach, but there are no reservations on these. Food is not too bad, but a little pricey. Service is good.
Melinda McCulloughSeptember 10, 2016Happy hour Mai Tie's were great! Sunset views are amazing! Live music was really good!
Cerebro PinkyOctober 13, 2017Drinks and the view!!! Cool place, music, good food and great beach next door
Colin WhiteJune 24, 2019Chicken pineapple fried rice is amazing to look at... just needs some extra guava bbq sauce to taste just as amazing.
Mika JainJanuary 13, 2013The drink "Lotsa Booze" is excellent for a group of people ready to drink! They light a shot on fire and provide 4 straws, so you're definitely getting a bang for your buck.
Robert MealeyDecember 3, 2012The ahi poke was very good., maybe the best I've had. We also loved the crusted fish, the pork nachos and even the hamburger was good.
Jenny GibbAugust 24, 2013Got the pineapple rice bowl and it was awesome! However, a little cold so make sure to ask for the meal to be hot.
Food is excellent but exorbitantly priced even by Waikoloa standards. Go for lunch or their reasonable happy hour, and avoid dinner here.
- Remember parking here is limited and on their 2nd ever Friday night the parking lot was full! We loved the community table and my husband made new friends at the bar.
V DMay 27, 2013Food - pork nachos- great; fish sandwich -shitomi?? Awful- raw in parts and fishy tasting ;. Tea- great; quinoa salad- ok; pound of fries- good Price- pricey but to be expected due to location
Natalie RayMarch 1, 2015Came here for a wedding and all the food was great. Spectacular sunset as well!
Jonny DubowskyAugust 10, 2014Amazing take on eggs Benedict with ono pork, get sriracha on side. Bloody Marie's for days.
Robert LePageMarch 29, 2018Perfect location for sunsets. Great service. Prices not so bad. Definitely recommend.
Monica DesaiDecember 27, 2020Come for poké nachos and the rum cocktails at sunset, be prepared to wait
JB StringerJanuary 5, 2013Tasty pork nachos! Very friendly & gracious staff. Good place to come an unwind directly on the beach!
Markus SchomerSeptember 30, 2013It's all about the sunset. Come early and grab a first-come-first-serve lounge chairs- Michael DunNovember 3, 2015Kid's pineapple fried rice is very tasty, but a bit steep at $10 for a plate of fried rice and a small side of white rice.
Polina AstrozFebruary 23, 2019waiting time very long (whereas a lot of tables are available) the service is not very good and the quality of drinks/ menu is bad. Very nice place in front of the beach.
Ray RayApril 26, 2013The view is beautiful! Turtles just down the beach! K is a great waitress! Life is good here!
Craig VillamorAugust 14, 2013Great place to watch the sunset. Get here early and snag the beach chairs.
chrisSeptember 13, 2017Both of us had "issues" the next morning after eating 3 dishes at happy hour here. Disappointed to find out it's the same as Huggo's in Kona. Good drinks and view, but other than that a bit overrated.

"Must see - few miles north of Waikoloa ... a real nice sandy beach with some basic snorkeling. Lots of shade for us mainlanders. Recently improved with rinse off showers. Road is narrow and good."
