Coast Grille & Oyster Bar
(Restaurants - Seafood)
62-100 Kauna'oa Dr Hapuna Beach Prince Hotel, Kohala  96743 • 808-880-1111 • 808-880-3192
Distance: ~3.88 mi *
        Description: KOHALA. The signature restaurant of the Hapuna Beach Prince Hotel is known far and wide for its superb Hawaiian and Pacific Rim cuisine. While serious diners charge forth in pursuit of fresh seafood (Kona-by-way-of-New England lobster, farm-raised moi, and pistachio-crusted opah, to name but a few), the restaurant's oyster bar offers a more casual setting for folks looking to eat light and enjoy a few cocktails. From bluffside seating areas, diners take in enchanting sunsets in the early evening, not to mention sweeping views of waves crashing on Hapuna Beach far below.

Look no further, because Harbor House is where you need to go. Relaxed, casual, and friendly, it's the ideal spot to appreciate the island aloha that everyone talks about so much. It's all good, man. If you head there for dinner, make sure it's an early one you're planning.

Quinn's Almost By the Sea
(Restaurants - Seafood)
75-5655A Palani Rd, Kailua-Kona  96740 • 808 329 3822
Distance: ~23.15 mi *
        Description: KONA COAST. One of the only places on the Big Island that serves food after 9pm, Quinn's enjoys a roaring trade of hungry locals and tourists. If the weather's fine, sit outside on the lanai and enjoy traditional, well-prepared American fare. Alternatively, the nautical-themed, air-conditioned interior is pleasant if you want to kick back indoors. Either way, prepare to be fully sated when you leave. Seafood is reliably good and plentiful, although steaks, burgers, and sandwiches are available too.

Huggo's
(Restaurants - Seafood)
75-5828 Kahakai Rd, Kailua-Kona  96740-1331 • 808-329-1493 • 808-329-8711
Distance: ~23.50 mi *
        Description: KONA COAST. Quite literally "over the edge," Huggo's allows patrons to enjoy both oceanside dining and premiere seafood dishes. While taking in the view of spectacular Kailua Bay, be sure to sample one of the house specialties – steamed clams and flavorful garlic chicken earn particular nods. After dinner, make your way to thatch-roofed Huggo's on the Rocks, a popular outdoor bar and dance club whose specialty drinks and beautiful clientele always ensure a great time.

Bubba Gump Shrimp Company
(Restaurants - Seafood)
75-5776 Alii Dr, Kailua-Kona  96740 • 808-331-8442
Distance: ~23.97 mi *
        Description: KONA COAST. With a nod to the movie "Forrest Gump," this fun place serves casual American fare, much of it seafood. The menu makes constant reference to Forrest and his friends. Shrimp dishes, for example, include Dumb Luck Coconut Shrimp and Lt. Dan's Drunken Shrimp. You'll also find a rib-eye, baby back ribs, salmon, mahi mahi, crab legs, and a veggie plate, not to mention a variety of sandwiches and salads. Available too are cocktails and smoothies, which are fruity and refreshing in quite different ways! Bring friends or family, munch on an order of peel 'n' eat shrimp, and enjoy the views. Forrest would want it that way.

Jameson's By The Sea - Kona
(Restaurants - Seafood)
77-6452 Alii Dr, Kailua Kona  96740 • 808-329-3195
Distance: ~26.15 mi *
        Description: KONA COAST. Boasting an idyllic view of the ocean, Jameson's is equally great for a romantic dinner or a big family gathering – just make reservations ahead of time, and ask for a table on the lanai. The food is good, and there are enough options to satisfy everyone. Relying primarily on fresh seafood, the menu offers five or six nightly specials in addition to the regular fare, and steaks and lamb satisfy folks who prefer land-based food. If you visit at lunch, the panko-crusted calamari steak sandwich comes highly recommended.

Hwy 11 between mile marker 112-113, Kainaliu  • 808-322-9992
Distance: ~32.03 mi *
        Description: KAINALIU. Ask a local or a frequent visitor where to go for the island's best seafood, and you'll likely hear this treasure named among the top suggestions. Nestled between the highway and the coastline, Keei Cafe serves spectacular American-Hawaiian fusion dishes. Savor the flavorful likes of an herb-rubbed rib-eye, pork chops smothered in peppercorn gravy, tofu fajitas, Thai-style curries, or even Brazilian seafood chowder. Although the decor will not knock your socks off, the food very likely will.
