8 ONO-LICIOUS | SEPTEMBER 22, 2017 Word on the Str(eat)! A-Bays Island Grill There’s nothing to complain about this restaurant. We went here at least 2x during our Waikoloa visit and every time we came, we received excellent customer service. One particular staff, Suzanne was terrific. She was attentive, friendly and answered all of our questions. She even gave us tips on where to go exploring in Kona. I would definitely come back here again. Joanne C. Kauai, HI Sansei Seafood Restaurant & Sushi Bar Ate here twice during our 4 day stay at the Marriott Waikoloa resort. They have Asian and Hawaiian dishes and of course sushi. The poke was fabulous. Despite the crowds, the service was good. There is a wide selection of seafood and drinks. Try the fried ice cream, it’s delicious. It’s located in a plaza with many retail stores and other restaurants. Not far from the hotels. Parking is abundant. Very reasonable prices for paradise. If you like sushi go there! Lmarquardt Rochester, NY CanoeHouse This is one of those wonderful restaurants you go to, fall in love with, and want to go back. In our case, we couldn’t extend our vacation. Having a glass of wine (nice to have the option of a half carafe on the wine menu; wish more restaurants offered that as one glass of wine is sometimes not enough, and ordering a second gets expensive). My ahi was superb, the dessert decadent, the lamplighter ceremony was unique and unexpected, AND the house singer was GREAT — he did James Taylor (sounded very much like him), John Denver, and the Eagles songs. Ahhhh, I miss this place. (And a special shout out to our special server — Aleke — hope I spelled her name correctly.) A joy from start to finish! Bob C. Petaluma Sam Choy’s If you want to get out of Kona town and have a great meal with an awesome view go here. The cocktails are unique and well crafted (I recommend a hurricane) and the entrees well presented and tasty. We had a chicken dish in peanut sauce, which was excellent. Our friends shared a huge calamari salad and loved it. The waitress was accommodating and efficient. I would go here to just hang out and watch the sunset if I lived here. creuther Escondido, CA Ippy’s Hawaiian Barbeque Located in the Queens’ MarketPlace Food Court, Ippy’s Hawaiian Barbeque offers a diverse menu with inexpensive tasty dishes. There are sandwich options, Up Country entrees like Loco Moco, Teriyaki, Kalua Pig or ribs and Hawaii Style mixed plates. The Mahi seared with ginger sauce, the grilled Ono and the Kalua pig accompanied by rice or fries, Mac salad or Cole slaw were excellent. You place your order at the counter, get a number and grab a table in the large open indoor dining area as you wait for meal to be cooked to order. KLE2013 Centreville, VA The Bay Terrace at Mauna Lani Every morning we headed down to the Bay Terrace for breakfast. Our plan included the daily buffet, so we had quite a choice daily. The buffet was wonderful! It had everything from freshly made (in front of you) omelets, to other eggs, hash browns, breads, fruit, meats, cereals and sweets. They even have a section for ethnic foods, if that is what you prefer. The seating was mostly outside, where the morning view was wonderful. Almost every morning we were there, we had Pina taking good care of us. Everyone there was very nice and helpful. We were even greeted every morning by the birds that just wait for handouts. If it takes a little too long for a table to be cleared. The birds jumped in to clear. :) If you are planning on staying there at the hotel, get on the plan that includes the buffet. You will not be disappointed. gldnpupper27 Knoxville, TN Haleo Luau This was an amazing show. The MC Aunty Tutu was funny, sweet and very engaging. The music was great and the dancing and talent was amazing. The food was buffet style and the host was accommodating with our dietary needs. We even got to go on stage and dance for our anniversary.
