Best Live Music Restaurants in Kawaihae

Even with having made reservations months in advance, notating that we were celebrating a birthday and being Marriott Ambassador level guests, we were given a table that was tucked back a bit from a view . What made this a little more disappointing is that full view tables remained open/unused for the duration our meal. Food was good but the pacing was off. We ordered 6-7 dishes and we a bit surprised to have them ALL on our table within 5 minutes of ordering with two being lukewarm (gambas and piquillos). If we hadn’t ordered a second round of crudo and kebabs, we would have been done with our meal faster than a McDonalds visit.

Dining at Copper Bar may have been our favorite dining experience on the Big Island! The setting was outstanding with the sunsetting and snorkeled heading out to see the manta rays. The service was outstanding. Our server was warm, knowledgeable, attentive. We loved the music and the beautiful, talented hula dancer made it extra special.

Hotel is under construction, but don't let that stop you from having a fabulous meal with a great view. The entire staff is impeccable, from check in person to bartender to server to the bus boy. If you are in the area or want to take a drive north from Kona, we highly recommend this establishment. First Class Award goes to this great property.

Great elevated bar type food, great service, great location, that’s all I need to say.

Great place for dinner while enjoying amazing sunset views.
