Restaurants near Kumulani at Mauna Kea Resort by South Kohala Management

Overall, we enjoyed our dinner at Canoe House. We started with the Shokupan Pull-Apart Bread. It was unique and tasty, obviously fresh from the oven. The seaweed butter was too "seaweedy" for my taste. The bread alone was great. We also had the Fresh Catch, which was Snapper that day. It was flavorful and not-at-all fishy. It was served with tatsoi kimchi, which we did not like at all -- maybe it's an acquired taste. We also ordered the Warayaki Tuna. When it is served, you get a bit of a show! They "cook" it right in front of you -- it's hay smoked and seared. The pieces were much small than on the website, but still filling. I can't decide if I prefer my tuna sashimi completely raw or fully cooked -- this was something in-between. I would not order it again however. Dessert was okay (I can't remember what it was called). But, honestly, it had too many tastes competing -- coffee, sesame crumble, cookie, banana and cream. What do they say about creating a dish then remove one ingredient to make it perfect? Service. It was impeccable. The hostesses were friendly and engaging. We had Ian as our waiter and he was a marvel. He never hovered; he explained the menu well, offered opinion when asked, and was overall attentive. HE gets FIVE STARS!

Well done. It’s our 7th time coming here. Over a decade and Brown’s continues to be a lovely spot. . The setting wins always. The food is consistently delicious and interesting. The service is comfortable Hawaiian hospitality. The music was perfect. Mother Nature obliged with a breathtaking sunset with the moon and Venus as highlights. Mahalo Browns.

Lovely ambiance and delicious food. Server was very friendly and patient.

My experience at Meridia was awesome. The server was so sweet to me. She. Checked about all my likes dislikes for everything I ordered. It was our anniversary and she made us feel very special. Loved all her recommendations and we ended up trying a few things recommended by her and loved it !! Will definitely come again !!

We had sushi which was excellent. They have a more limited but everything we had was delicious. We had a white Spanish alberino wine and Malasada for dessert. Our server was excellent and very personable
