But the best part is the view. You're looking right out over the waters of King Kamehameha. If you time it right, you can even watch the luau happening while you're sitting there with your drink. Friendly service, great vibe, and exactly the kind of relaxed place you hope to find in Kona.

It was surprisingly quiet. I got the impression that during busy season you may want to consider a reservation. Cheeky Tiki is a super cute (of course) tiki theme, on the second floor, the front open to the ocean. We sat in the cage chairs in the lounge. The service was excellent. We asked for fun glasses, and theirs were the best! Good drinks, service, and atmosphere! Stop by if you are in Kona.

It was our last day in Hawaii, and we only had a couple of hours before heading to the airport. We…read moredecided to end our trip with two classic Big Island cocktails. They were good, and the bartender was nice. She honestly made the whole atmosphere of the place! Unfortunately, the tacos we ordered were really disappointing. Maybe tacos just aren't their strongest dish, since I noticed other table had chicken wings, and those actually looked much better. One small note about the piña colada: it was made with ice cream. It was refreshing in the heat and definitely tasty, but it also made the drink much sweeter and heavier. Personally, I would have preferred a more classic piña colada without ice cream. Overall, the cocktails and the bartender were great. Just maybe skip the tacos.

Probably the best fish sandwich of my life and the poke was perfect. The waitress was true to the name of the place and had kind Aloha vibes.

Lots of true Aloha here, Aloha vibes throughout this small restaurant. Hope you get to visit. Soo cool.

Be sure to request inside seating if you prefer not to be too toasty on the patio at sunset. However, the view is stunning! Props for stocking Lanikai's shave ice seltzer (although it's not part of the happy hour offerings). It's so delicious! Food is always plated beautifully, from the dynamite fries (which lived up to their name although they're not spicy) to the kalua pork plate. The lilikoi bbq sauce did not taste like lilikoi, but the wings were crisp and not greasy. We did take out for entrees - they didn't have potato salad (on a Friday night?! ) and I was promised some cucumber salad instead but didn't get it. A mixed experience.

Right, so here's a little slice of the absurd. As a woman who walked into what I thought was a…read moresafe, welcoming LGBTQ bar, I was met with a bizarre exclusion. The servers barely acknowledged me until I realized the unspoken dress code: apparently, tank tops were the golden ticket to decent service. If you dare to wear something else... well, don't expect much. So if you're not a tank-top person or good looking male, brace yourself for invisibility. And as if the universe hadn't already made its point, the nachos I ordered were a soggy disaster. They stumbled out late like they were still figuring out if they even wanted to exist and somehow managed to be flavorless puddles of disappointment. And, of course, even as I sat there with my sad plate, they still couldn't bring me a drink. Top-tier hospitality, if you're into being ignored.

The place was very busy and quite loud, so we had to sit at a high top in the bar. No big deal! Our server was incredibly attentive and made some great recommendations. We decided to start with quest and chips, which was brought out very quickly and nice and hot. As we inhaled the quest and chips, we decided on fish tacos for me and a veggie burger for my husband. The fish tacos were wonderfully seasoned and cooked very well. The tortillas were a bit greasy, however, and I was very happy there were two tortillas to each taco since there was also a bit more drip than I expected from the pico. I also had fries, and the fries were excellent! The veggie burger was epic. This was the second veggie burger from this group of restaurants he has had, and I'm pretty sure it's his favorite in the area. Perfectly cooked and seasoned well, with great fries. It was very busy here, which is always a good sign. Just wish the music wasn't as loud because it's hard to have any sort of conversation. I did enjoy how involved the singer was with the other patrons, so it was amusing!
