    We got burger with the plant based patty. One with fries the other with the salad. Both were really good and hit the spot. Tried both signature Mai tais. Both were good. Our server was great. We sat to the water. Was a very nice evening out.

    Absolutely spectacular sunset, food was great and high quality. VERY large portions, so consider sharing unless you’ve got a huge appetite. We got the fish tacos which were a super generous portion of fish, almost too large so they were tough to eat. Next time I’d get the grilled fish tacos instead. Our server was really really great, kept our waters full and checked in on us. Five stars!

    On Ali i Drive just a few minutes south of town…Right on the ocean and able to watch the waves and Magic Sands Beach. Doesn’t get any better..beautiful spot…nice restaurant and bar are done in a very nice yet casual style. Beautiful surf mural as you enter. Staff friendly and professional. Our brunch entrees were delicious: Eggs Benedict Hawaiian style with eggs atop slices of rare fresh ahi and a bed of perfect sushi rice…topped with perfect hollandaise with tasty a bit of lilikoi. Avocado toast also excellent, and we topped it with a couple extra eggs. The plate was then finished with fresh pineapple and orange slices, grapes and strawberries. Mimosas too! Magics will be a regular Sunday thing for us!

    Our server, Zekr was attentive, thoughtful and efficient. . Compliments to him. Sunset cruise cocktail was perfect, flavourful , decorative .Dirty Ulu was fantastic , fish tacos were delicious . The Famers salad was massive but there was too much balsamic dressing, the lettuce, blueberries etc was quite saturated with balsamic dressing !

    The food tasted great! The only thing that would be better is to have the appetizer served before the salad and main course. All the food was brought at once. Our main entree was only warm by the time we were able to consume it.

    This place is a hidden gem on Ali'i Dr. No need to go to Kona Village for dinner. Great service (Michael was awesome), great food and the ocean pounding right below on Magic Sands beach. You can't get much better than that. The Ono is Ono, Mai Tai's fantastic and pupu's superb!
