Amazing sunset with the absolute best butterfish accompanied by the cutest cats on the island! Service was pretty good with consistent water refills. Would have been an easy 5-star but the ribeye was full of tendon and lacking flavor; I ended up not eating a quarter of it. For the $120 price tag, this is a bit of a slap to the face. read more

This restaurant is surviving on the ambiance of being by the ocean at sunset. We had a 7:30 reservation on 7/2/26. They were out of 2 of the 9 entrees (catch of the day and lobster tail). Wife got the special. Seafood on a bed of udon noodles, which somehow included a lobster tail they were supposedly out of. It appeared the seafood was forgotten in the steamer yesterday and plated today. Lobster tail was so overcooked she couldn't even get it out of the shell. The noodles were by far the best part of the dish. I got the ribeye. They claimed it was an excellent cut of steak, but you could have gotten the 1/2" thick ribeye at any grocery store in the Midwest for $25. They covered it in so much sauce I could barely taste the meat, which may have been their objective. If I was the chef I'd be embarrassed to put out that food anywhere, much less at a restaurant like this with these prices. We will definitely not be going back. I've never left a restaurant review before, but this was such a poor attempt for a restaurant of this supposed quality I had to. read more

I would come back and dine here just to see the cats again. While we came here at night, this restaurant is perched right along the shore and I'm sure would offer a fantastic view for a super romantic sunset dinner. Our server was very friendly and recommended a lot of great dishes, and every dish that came out was amazing. Highly recommend ordering the butterfish with a side of rice, my boyfriend and I both ordered it, shared a side of rice, and it was perfect. Oh, and the cats. Super cute, keep their distance for the most part, and just simply wander the outdoor patio of the restaurant. read more

Located at the very edge of the Hilton Waikoloa by the beach follow the signs towards "KPC" (or take the tram) past the luau. Make a reservation (either via the hotel or on Open Table) so you can sit outside or inside (which is kind of inside but the entire restaurant is open). If you don't have a reservation you can sit at the bar or outside at the lounge. I recommend checking what time sunset is and making your reservation a little before then because the ocean views here are gorgeous! The food here was outstanding! I highly recommend for the starters: -Passion Fruit Mango Shrimp Ceviche -Island Crab Salad -Scallops "Shaka"-feller" All 3 were 10/10 outstanding! For the main, the best dish was the: Misoyaki Butterfish (Request a spoon since you're going to want to eat every bite of the truffle cream sauce!) The KPC Breads Basket was also delicious with its Ube roll and Sweet Furikake roll complete with honey butter (although the Ube bread at Brown's Beach House is way better) My kids got the macaroni and cheese which was fine but nothing special although it was presented beautifully in a wooden pineapple plate. For dessert the chocolate lava cake was delicious! read more

Our reservation was for 8pm for 4 people. We were just arriving from Oahu and was tired and excited for our dinner reservation. After getting dressed and making our way to dinner, a sign was posted at the front informing us that dinner service was cancelled. No call, no message prior, no opportunity to plan alternative reservations for dinner. We ended up going restaurant to restaurant looking for open tables but nothing was available and ended up eating food from a convenience store. Very disappointed as our anticipation to try this highly recommended spot was spoiled by lack of communication read more

Last night we went for the sunset dinner. The hostess sat us outside at a lovely table overlooking the Pacific Ocean. The view is spectacular! Once we took pictures and began to enjoy the looming sunset, we settled in with drinks and appetizers! I had the old fashioned and she had the strawberry mocktail turned cocktail! Again they were very accommodating! The food was good and service and view were excellent! As an appetizer I had soft shelled crab. It came with two crabs and they tasted scrumptious! We also had the bread bowl . Which reminds me I going to eat the last of it now! Delicious! For our main courses we had the seafood Duo (local fish and prawns with rice and broccolini as well as the tumeric chicken breast with rice and carrots! We both thoroughly enjoyed our dinner! I would recommend this restaurant KPC it's definitely worth the money and it's not too expensive at all! My server, Victor was a beast and really looked out for my wife and I. I also added a photo of he and our server from the previous night at Nui, Resty! read more

Very expensive but a) it's part of a resort and b) you're paying for the incredible view, especially at sunset. Food was terrific! 3 of us had the NY strip and all were very pleased. Our other guest had the braised short rib with nothing but compliments. Service was amazingly fast and very good. No complaints whatsoever. Be prepared to pay top dollar but as long as you know what to expect you should have no complaints. read more

This restaurant is located in the Hilton Waikoloa along the beach. It has the perfect view of the sunset every day. The food here is usually good, but for some reason during this visit the ever changing menu falls a little flat. As of this writing April 2024, the appetizers are just OK. I've been coming here twice a year to utilize my AMEX Aspire Hotel Credit Benefit and I'm hoping next bi-yearly appetizer menu is improved. We got a few dishes. The house salad was OK. Nothing special. The seared scallops were a little bland. The New York Strip was very tasty and the Gochujang Pork Chop was good after we realized how to eat it (a lot of different flavors on the plate). The Banana Foster Ala Mode and the Dark Chocolate Triffle were excellent and made for the perfect end of meal closer. The staff was very friendly. They checked on us often, cleared our plates in a timely manner and food came out fast without feeling rushed. This place is on the expensive side. With the my AMEX $200 credit and the daily $36 hotel food credit, my wallet wasn't dented at all. But if you're local, ask about the Kamaaina Discount to save 20%. Overall, if you're on the Big Island, give this place a try. read more

The zombie apocalypse is here.... at least the wait staff we had might as well be zombies devoid of any enthusiasm. The manager, Denise, although had more personality, didn't seem to care and certainly didn't do anything about it. Finally forced the issue after repeated issues (having to ask for things, bringing out burnt food, etc.). Second server, Linda, was so much better. Request her if you go. Ambiance is great overlooking ocean and great view of sunset. Make reservation and request closest table to beach. Food is mixed... bread service is tasty, salad good, entrees very mixed... lobster great, but burnt shrimp were hard pass, and steak was decent. But you don't exactly come for the food. Price not surprisingly too high. read more

Kamuela Provision Company (KPC) at Hilton Waikoloa Resort is a restaurant where breathtaking sunset views and excellent hosting outshine the overall dining experience. The prime oceanfront location and open-air design create a serene and romantic ambiance, perfect for a special evening. We had a reservation for later in the evening but were pleasantly surprised when they accommodated us earlier. This allowed us to snag what was arguably the best seat in the house, offering an unobstructed view of the stunning Hawaiian sunset--a memory to cherish. Service: The service was a highlight of the evening. Ariel, our host, was exceptional--knowledgeable, attentive, and personable. He patiently answered our questions about the menu and offered thoughtful recommendations. His warm hospitality elevated our experience despite the mixed quality of the food. Food: While the setting and service were outstanding, the food quality didn't quite match the ambiance. Here's what we ordered: - Chard Salad: Unfortunately, this dish was a letdown, lacking the freshness one would expect at a fine-dining establishment. - Fresh Catch (Hamachi):Ordered twice, the hamachi was overcooked, resulting in a texture that was hard rather than tender and flaky as anticipated. - Sashimi Duo: The star of the evening. This dish, featuring Ahi and Kanpachi paired with radish, ginger, and a good squeeze of finger lime ( caviar like consistency of the lime pearls/pulp), was a true delight. Its thoughtful flavors and presentation highlighted the potential of the kitchen. Final Thoughts: Kamuela Provision Company offers unparalleled views and exceptional service, with Ariel's hosting as a standout feature of our visit. However, the food quality fell short of expectations, particularly given the restaurant's premium pricing. Would we return? The ambiance and service might tempt us for another visit, but we'd hope for an improved culinary experience to truly make it worth the splurge. PS: This review is for a visit from earlier in the year and it somehow slipped out of my reviews that i had to post. read more

Eat here for the ambiance and service, not the food. The location is great, seating you basically right on the water for a sunset dinner and the service is top notch friendly and attentive. The food is just ok and over priced. You are paying for the location. I ordered the tomahawk steak since the chef would not let me substitute the sides on the porterhouse, and I have to say I was disappointed in the $280 meal. Steak was overcooked, salty, and just not a great quality meat. I would have rather paid that price at a real steakhouse for a dry aged steak. Have 4 stars for the location and service. Food is more like 3 stars. read more

Stunning ocean views and beautiful ambience which is the reason I gave 3 stars and not 2. Service was OK. Super mediocre food & drinks, particularly for the price. The menu is also a tad limited. The best thing we got was the wedge salad. The fish was overcooked, the chicken was rubbery, and the cocktail I ordered tasted nothing like a mojito. While I am glad we got a few nice photos - overall not a great fine dining experience. read more

Tremendous Ocean Front location. Prepare to be underwhelmed by both the food and service. Restaurant is part of the Hilton Waikoloa Beach Resort complex, dining here is the "easy" choice if you're staying here. read more

First the good: The view... completely unobstructed sunset fading into the ocean waves if you time your reservation right. Our server was lovely and attentive to our requests. We enjoyed our Mai Tais and the bartender was even willing to make one Trader Vic's style (the "original" Mai Tai - less sweet without the extra fruit juices). Mahalo to our server Linda and the bartender! The rest: The food was just alright. My husband ordered a steak which was slightly overcooked. I order the lamb which looked amazing and perfectly cooked. But the flavor was just absent despite the grapefruit anglaise enhancement. Unfortunately, to enjoy an unobstructed view, the tables are along the walking path. So our romantic dinner also included 40 of our closest tourist friends watching us eat as they walked by. It is what it is. Overall, we wouldn't go back. But if you're staying at the Hilton without a rental car and want a fancy-ish spot, here you go. read more

If you're on the Big Island and want to feel like you're dining inside a postcard, Kamuela Provision Company is your go-to. That sunset view? Absolutely breathtaking. The kind that makes you forget your phone password because your brain short-circuited from the beauty. Honestly, if they just sold the view and a cold drink, I'd might come back. But alas, they also sell food. Let's just say it was a bit like watching a hula show on mute--fine, but lacking the magic. Service? Our waiter was very relaxed. So relaxed he forgot one of our dishes entirely, needed nudging on bread and drinks, and delivered the bad news about a missing dessert like we were being broken up with gently. And then charged us for the missing dessert. If my friend Michael were here, he'd declare this a 3.1 for food. Ambience? 5 stars. Prices? 5 stars... like the kind you see flashing before your eyes when you get the bill. Food? Could try harder. Come for the view and maybe lower your culinary expectations just enough to keep the evening golden. read more

KPC is a magnificent high end Hawaiian restaurant that possesses one of the great locals of all time in the Waikoloa Beach Resort area. Set right on oceans edge, KPC offers great food and great views along with top notch service. If you're lucky enough to score a sunset reservation you get to see half naked, tanned and buff loin clothed employees run the parameter and light tiki torches as they blow the conch shell! Exciting times!! Imagine local seafood and beautifully plated dishes executed well. We scored a great table at the edge of outdoor seating with a great view. We had a large party and were well taken care of. We all left very happy and feel like we got a show with dinner. There is plenty of indoor seating as well but I can't imagine ever choosing to sit inside. I highly recommend this place. A read more

Great atmosphere, location can't be beat. Staff are top notch. Will be going back again. Food was awesome also.

A beautiful setting. We hit sunset perfectly. Our server was amazing. The food was so delicious. We tried the rack of lamb, the filet mignon, the Kona Duo and the pork chop. All were prepared perfectly. The standout to me was the Kona Duo which comes with a Carmel fish sauce that you could literally drink. Dessert was the Ube ice cream cake and bananas Foster. read more

Kamuela Provision Company is one of the most scenic dining experiences to be found on the island. In the evenings you can watch the sun set on the horizon, followed by gorgeous skies. With our reservation, seating was immediate and the service was pleasant and friendly. The servers were happy to help us with our menu questions and guide us with our choices. We received our drinks quickly. The servers were very attentive. Our dinner was served in a short amount of time. The dinner had the perfect amount of portions and everything was cooked to perfection. The lobster with the asparagus and mashed potatoes was delicious. I highly recommend Kamuela for that special night out on the Big Island. read more

We ate at this restaurant on our last night in Hawaii. The food was delicious and the ambiance was great. I gave it four stars out of five because you do not get complimentary bread. You have to pay for it. Additionally, I ordered the bread for the table and they ran out. Our waiter Cornelius was great! He was polite and very attentive. The pricing is about $100 per plate not including drinks. I recommend this place. read more

The view was everything that is described here - beyond great. The customer service from Denise, via Open Table messaging, was also exemplary. Unfortunately the good ends there. Besides the astronomical prices, which I realize is commensurate with the view. the food, other than the dinner rolls, was simply awful. Two of six entrees were inedible, the other four mediocre at best. Beware. Watch a slightly-less-perfect sunset elsewhere! read more

Location is amazing and the views are spectacular. Unfortunately the food is average and the prices are astronomical. We shared a wedge salad $24 (which was good), had the daily catch fish $65 (which was dry and boring, and the rack of lamb (which was ok but seriously overprices at $78). I know it's Hawaii, but you can get much better for for less money at Napua at the Mauna Lani Beach Club. Staff was ok but not great. read more

Located at the Hilton Waikoloa, the view from KPC is so beautiful. Great spot for dinner and a sunset. The food is mediocre. We were surprised by some items when they were served to us, as there were things on them not described in the menu. The wedge salad came with onions. And the butterfish came with truffle. Those are both strong flavors that not everyone cares for and should be noted on the menu. Skip dessert. We ordered the cheesecake and it was terrible. It was definitely frozen and defrosted to be served. Not fresh. read more

I have to leave a review for this lovely restaurant in the Waikaloa Hilton for an unusual reason. I came for two nights to celebrate my friends 79th birthday. However, I had not been well a couple days prior and had not been able to eat solid foods for about three days prior to coming. I had hoped that it would've cleared by then and when it hadn't cleared, and I had been eating only saltine crackers, white rice, chicken broth, and applesauce for three days and had lost 10 pounds. I still did not want to give up my precious time with my friend at the wonderful Waikoloa Hilton. Well, by the time this particular night came, I was very weak and starving and also extremely afraid to eat anything because my stomach was so bad. The night before I ate at Nui Italian and asked them for suggestions for a limited diet which they did not have and my stomach did not do so well that night. So when I came to this restaurant, I was thinking I might just end up with white rice and some broth, When I told the waitress about my situation, she immediately went to get the chef who came out and greeted me and discussed my dietary restrictions and my situation, I explained to him all the things that I could eat and all the things that I knew I couldn't eat and he ended up bringing me a wonderful meal that I was so happy to eat after having eaten very little for so many days. (And my stomach was good that night!) My friend who was celebrating his birthday, got the pork chops and an amazing looking apple tart like an apple pie, but baked all around!! both of which he seemed to thoroughly enjoy. I would highly recommend this place, if not for the service alone. Mahalo! read more

Back again this year to KPC- Executive Chef Robert Love has certainty made great changes to the menu. We had the lamb chops, coconut clam miso, huli-Huli chicken, red curry scallops, Chinese style Mahi Mahi. Nice of sides for 2- chose the broccolini and olive oil mashed potatoes. Desert the vanilla cheesecake, chocolate royal cake, sorbet and vanilla ice cream. Oh drinks and Baileys, lilikoi margarita, Akaka Falls Martini & red wine- Murrietas I will write more to update this .... Everything was simply amazing, very tasty, and well worth every bite Hats off to the chef!! Thank you, thank you Merry Christmas you're amazing thank you for the reservation and for your creations with local veggies and fruits. . I would add... totally appreciate that. They changed the outdoor seating to be indoors. Since it was raining. Still a beautiful view. I just wish the person who is seeing us was a little more people friendly. She had no eye contact... we thanked her for the last minute changes... she mumbled something under her breath. Maybe she is not the person to be seating people. Today she did not like her job and it showed. On the top side... Linda was so cheerful & friendly. She helped us to make good choices. She made the experience a positive one!

Food was excellent, ambiance is great, table service leaves MUCH to be desired. Our waiter was not very helpful or friendly and seemed annoyed we were even here. Half our party didn't get their food until the rest of us had finished our meal. While trying to call to book the reservation we had to jump through half a million hoops (not being able to add people to our party online, no one answering our calls within business hours for DAYS of trying, hard to locate with a strict late policy, etc.) Bar staff is friendly and helpful, fresh catch is some of the best fish I've ever had and drinks are 10/10, but if you're looking for a friendly, organized, helpful, welcoming staff and environment this might not be the place. read more

We recently dined at Kamuila Provision Company during our stay at the Hilton Waikulu Resort, and while our experience had a rocky start, it ended on a much better note. We arrived at the restaurant to enjoy the sunset, which was absolutely stunning--definitely a highlight of our evening. However, our initial experience with the seating was frustrating. The staff informed us that the tables with the best views were reserved, but it seemed like they didn't actually check. This was disappointing and felt like we were given the runaround. Thankfully, our server, Bradley, really turned things around. He was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had a great dining experience despite the rough start. We began with the charred salad as a starter, which was very good. For the main course, we had the Pepper Crust Seared Ahi Tuna and the Mahi and Turf, both of which were absolutely delicious. The flavors were spot on, and the dishes were prepared perfectly. For dessert, we had ice cream scoops, which were just okay--nothing special compared to the rest of the meal. Overall, while the seating issue was disappointing, Bradley's excellent service and the quality of the food made up for it. I'd recommend giving this place a try, especially if you're looking for a good meal with a beautiful sunset view. read more

KPC has a gorgeous view on the back corner of the Hilton Village complex. We were expecting a fine dining experience but felt very let down by the food. The bread in the bread basket looked great but tasted like nothing. It's like they just added food coloring and seads to a very simple bread recipe. The shrimp in my appetizer were very good but the chips that came with them had no flavor and didn't make any sense with the rest of the dish. The lamb chops were fine but the potatoes had no seasoning and the greens were inedible. I know island prices are high but this place was beyond expensive, which was totally okay with us. But when you a premium you expect a lot more from the experience. read more

It's literally a $$$$ place - just for the views alone. Arrived at our reservation time- we were seated promptly with a beautiful ocean view outside on the patio. They serve a pre-fixe 3 course meal - salad, main, and dessert. 1st course, I had the Jalapeño Ceaser slSalad. Was good, but underdressed. (A lot of places seem to be doing this recently. An undersressed Ceasar is literally just romaine lettuce and croutons.) The bites I had with dressing were great. My wife liked her salad. I didn't try it. Main course I had the Mahi Mahi- amazing. Perfectly cooked, great sauce. Loved it. My wife liked the children gnocchi-i didn't try it. The desserts were unreal. The lillikoi cheesecake was the best I've ever had. Perfection! My wife raved about the mousse and ice cream. She said top 1 or 2 desserts all time. The only downside was that our server seemed a little distracted and seemed to forget about us. If we weren't outside in Hawaii, I might have been irritated. Other than that it was an amazing night. I'd say a little overpriced, but you're not getting the view anywhere else. read more

One of the best dining experiences I've ever had! (And you can see from my reviews- I've had quite a few!) imagine yourself at a table for two directly overlooking the calm peaceful ocean and dining at a pace so graceful, the setting sun is actually waiting on you to get to desert! The service is outstanding and again, allows for a SUPURB dining at your pace. I had the Huli Huli chicken which, with the mashed breadfruit was delicious!! Every mouthful just reminded me of how I feel at my momma's thanksgiving dinner! THAT GOOD! Husband's steak was cooked to perfection and super tender and juicy. We were only going to have a few bites of the chocolate decadence desert- and momments later, it was all gone!! A perfect setting and a very perfect meal. Our dear friends who travel to the island for conference each year highly recommended "KPC" and we are so very glad they did. Helpful hint: Dine here on your second night on the island. After you've rested up from your flight and before you have any other dinner meal. TWEVLE STARS IF YELP WOULD LET ME! Our Server Cornelius -extremely wonderful. I think all my other reviews should be a four, well nearly all, as this place exceeds all expectations with both atmosphere, oceanfront beautiful, sunset views, absolutely amazing food. read more
