   Vreemde kaart maar het eten is prima. Bediening is erg gehaast maar dat is standaard bij bijna alle Amerikaans restaurants.

   Made a reservation but table not ready - they ended up putting us outside where there were heat lamps but it was still cold. Food took really long time and one or two entries at a time at 5 minutes apart. One of the pad Thai orders had no noodles in it. It was explained they ran out and a “substitute” was used. Two shrimp dinners contained the smallest shrimp I have ever seen. Not a good night for Kona Grill

   Well, Kona on a weekend is quite different then it used to be. If you're okay spending $22 per sushi roll while listening to the cupid shuffle, guest singing sweet Caroline, and numerous cheesy wedding songs during your time - then you will love it here. There were children behind us playing the drums on our head rest with chopsticks, and lots of trash under the tables. Service was the best thing about the evening. Arrived at 6:45, we were sat and then greeted immediately by Jada who kept our drinks full and made great suggestions. Ordered pretty quickly and food arrived long after, right before 8:30 - which wouldn't have bothered us one bit if it were executed correctly. But of course, 2 of 4 entrees were ice cold and the other 2 seemed like they may have been sitting under a hot lamp as the top was extra crispy and the bottom was cold. Hottest thing on the table was the side of fries. We were really bummed that we spend our Friday evening and money here, our out of town guests said they felt like we were at an adult chuck e cheese. Kinda embarrassed we suggested it. Maybe a good place to take a family, but not so much if your trying to have a nice evening out and adult conversations

   We had a reservation but when we got there they said they were overbooked and they did seat us at a dirty table near the kitchen . Service very slow. Food mediocre. Won’t go back!

   The staff was friendly and attentive. Excellent happy hour menu with a variety of cocktails and small shareable appetizers. The drinks and food came out as ordered and within a reasonable time. Always a plus on a busy weekend night. The only thing we noticed was the carpet smelled dirty and wet.

   Had a birthday celebration and waited forever for drinks… to order appetizer… kept coming back to tell us they were out of items, no sea bass, no wagyu, no steak sauce… first calamari was delicious, second order was salty and no one could eat it, kids rice was dry and hard… overall bad experience especially for birthday celebration.

    First things first, I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE. Here's why... We went last night (Saturday, January 21, 2023) and it was way too loud for dinner service inside because of the DJ. Service was skewed but good. Now for the food - the worst. The cocktails could have been from a mix, the calamari, although crispy and flavorful, was tough and chewy on every bite, and mostly all tentacles. I ordered the ribeye and asked for it to be done the way Chef would have it and it was completely raw and tasteless, I mean it was not seasoned whatsoever. I doubt very much any Chef would have approved of it. Additionally, I ordered the lobster butter for the steak and it came hard and was torched tableside - NOT worth the upcharge. It never fully melted so there was this half-melted, hard in places, cold in others, mess. As a side, I ordered the Pineapple ($4.00 upcharge on top of the $9.00 side fee) Fried Rice and it had maybe 4, or 5 small pieces of pineapple cuts - again, NOT worth the upcharge. My husband's prime rib was overdone and came with mashed potatoes that were not only cold but could have come out of a box. We spent close to $200.00, including tip (Server Julie was so nice) but will never, ever recommend Kona Grill to anyone. This place is too expensive for its quality, and the atmosphere is not on par with the other fine dining options in the Westshore/Boy Scout Road area. The experience was regretful because we had been so looking forward to trying it out. 👉 If you are any kind of food or drink aficionado, stay clear. 👈

    Date night at Kona Grill was a win! The sea bass was perfection and my boyfriend couldn’t stop raving about his steak. The service was wonderful and there was definitely music and noise, but nothing prevented you from having a conversation at your table. Awesome experience.

    Mediocre might be too nice for our visit. We were quickly seated at the rear of the restaurant that seemed quite dark. Soon we realized that most of the lighting above us was completely out and someone brought a small table light for us. Our server Julie left a lot to be desired. My soup, came out lukewarm and needed to be sent back while my second appetizer that I asked to be delivered later was delivered at the same time. My second appetizer was brought out later and was also lukewarm. Not a great experience for our first time to Kona.

    We had a great lunch. They offer a brunch and everyday menu and both options were great. The portions were a nice size and service was fantastic! We got a visit from the manager Kelvin who was very nice. Kelvin got my granddaughter free dessert. What was brought out was a shareable size in which all four of us ate from. Would definitely go back. Thanks Fernando and Kelvin!

    Service was great, but the restaurant just felt like an overpriced chain. Appetizer and 2 main dishes were all over $20 for really no reason. Shrimp is tiny and obviously from a frozen bag. I dont think we will be back.

    I booked this reservation with Open Table and the hostess seated us. No one came. After 15 minutes we asked for help and were accused of "just sitting down" without a reservation. I explained I had one. 10 minutes later we asked another person for help who again said we didnt' have a reservation. We did and decided to just leave since they were so aggressive with us on being there. I would never go back after being treated so poorly. Couldn't you just check my reservation if you weren't sure? I'm not writing a review from that reservation. Please, don't go here. There are so many good restaurants in the same parking lot who actually care about your business. I called to share my concerns and they hung up on me after waiting 20 minutes on the phone. They could care less and were thrilled that we walked out. The restaurant was empty which is their goal

    Kona managed to ruin our celebration. Even with reservations, it took a long time to sit us, there were no cups, napkins, or anything. Total disorganization, the server keep saying how busy they'd been and that we just need to have patience, the food took about an hour to come out, the meat was overdone, the fish was underdone, and with the exception of the appetizers, it was mediocre at best. None of our drinks made it to the table and managers were nonexistent. We had 3 assistant Managers come to the table and explain why everything was so bad - All excuses, no apologies. Will not trust this restaurant again.

    The back patio was closed. The host asked us to wait 30minutes for a table that was not available. We asked to be seated by the bar. After waiting another 30 minutes, my wife had to walk and chase for a server. Server never came and we decided to leave.
