   Great service and food yummy but pricepoint to high. But to pay $37 for fish and chips? No thank you.

   This was the worst experience we have ever had. Our drinks came timely, appetizers too but our potstickers were not cooked, drinks tasted soapy. Then we waited 1.5hrs for our main food and it was cold. My husbands fish was dry, tiny and over a small amount of poorly cooked bok choy. My chicken was horrible. Cold, gummy, and the wrong side dishes. Our server barely spoke to us, never checked in at all. Overall it was absolutely awful. Would never go back.

   The food was great. The service was below average, and I didn't feel the waitress was pleasant or tenative. It wasn't busy, and the server seemed put out to do her job. I have had wonderful experiences at Kona, and she may have had off day, but I would leave before i let her serve me again.

   Limited menu for Mother’s Day Service was extremely bad Food was cold when it arrived Seating was uncomfortable, had to slide your butt between the tables to get to the booth, disrupting the people beside you Overpriced for very small portions 2/3 times I’ve been here it’s been bad, I don’t think I will try again

   My wife and I had been to Kona Grill once prior and the food was excellent. My wife specifically asked we go back for her Mother’s Day dinner because the pasta she had the initial visit was so good. Upon this second visit, and initially looking at the menu, we quickly realized it was much more limited and did not have the pasta she was hoping to have again. We asked our waitress and she noted that on major holidays they purposely limit the menu to make things easier on the kitchen; I’m assuming because they anticipate many more customers. While a bit disappointed, we aren’t high maintenance people, so we decided to just have some pot stickers and we each ordered a burger. This is where it went bad. The pot stickers came out almost immediately, and tasted like they had been sitting under a warmer for a very long time/not fresh. The burger, for both of us, might have been the worst burger I have ever had in my life. The bun was extremely dry, meet tasted low quality. Zero flavor. For all of this, a beer, and the tip, it was over $100. I have never felt so cheated after a meal in my life.

   First off, they tried to seat us (a party of five that included an infant in a car seat) at their half bench booth, half chair tables. The hostess said they usually seat three on the booth side. Keep in mind, we have an infant and this was not going to work. We had to beg for a different table. They had a Mother's Day menu, and it was very limited. No kids menu on Mother's Day either. Had to ask for drink refills every time and it seemed as if they had their "B" team wait staff. I've been here many times, and for the price, I expect more. I'm not sure if I will ever come back based off this one experience.

   5 people = $300.00! 5 drinks, and 5 average meals. Extremely loud - had to yell at each other just hear ourselves. Slow service, sticky table. Not trying this place again - done with the Kona Grill.

   My family has been here several times over the years and we're always happy to be there. Great food, drinks, and service with good atmosphere and seeing everyone around us also having a good time.
