Insider Tip of the Week: Eats: Kohala Coast

Below is a list of our personal recommendations for good eats along the Kohala Coast of the Big Island. See the map at the bottom of the page for directions.

Budget ($5-$15):
* Picnic at the beach! Quality provisions can be purchased at Island Gourmet in the Queen's Marketplace or Foodland Farms Mauna Lani
*Yummy ramen at the Noodle House
*Surprisingly good deals for a golf course restaurant, especially breakfast, at Kings' Grille
*On the go? This convenience store has great grinds: Kawaihae Market & Deli

Moderate ($15-25):
*Fresh Mediterranean fare, great for a sit-down dinner, Merriman's Market Cafe
*Awesome Japanese at reasonable prices at Monstera
*Friendly and low-key, BYOB to Charley's Thai Cuisine
*Consistently good, very high ratings online at Cafe Pesto in Kawaihae

Splurge ($25+):
*The original Roy's! A Hawaii landmark.
*Unexpectedly good and nice ambiance at the Tommy Bahama Cafe
*Any of the wonderful lu'aus, I made a list of my favorites here: Lu'au Options
