Excellent food and truly above-and-beyond service!…read more I had the beef short rib with kimchi fried rice, and both were fantastic. The short rib is slow-cooked for 12 hours, and you can absolutely tell--the meat practically fell off the bone without any effort. The portions were very generous, which was exactly what we needed the night before a big paddling race! Everyone in our group really enjoyed their food. What impressed me even more was the service. I accidentally left my retainer on the table wrapped in a napkin and didn't realize it until about 30 minutes after we left. I called the restaurant, and the team was kind enough to actually search through the trash for it--and they found it! Anyone who has a retainer knows how expensive and difficult they can be to replace, so I was incredibly grateful that they were willing to go that far to help me. That level of care says a lot about the people here. Great food, generous portions, and a team that genuinely takes care of their guests. Thank you for an excellent meal and especially for going so far above and beyond for me!

The food was fantastic -- Roy's is consistently one of those restaurants where you can expect an amazing meal. The wine was great as well, and we were lucky enough to be seated by a window overlooking the water. The view was breathtaking and really added to the entire dinner. It is definitely expensive, so be prepared for a higher-end dinner bill, but the food and experience were worth it for me. The only minor downside was that the group next to us was fairly loud, but that's certainly not something I would hold against the restaurant. Overall, another amazing experience at Roy's. Great food, great wine, gorgeous views, and a restaurant I would absolutely return to. I just really, really hope Roy's decides to come back to LA someday!

I usually avoid writing reviews for heavily reviewed businesses, but I'm making an exception for…read morethis one as it was the best eatery my wife and I visited during our nearly week long honeymoon on the Big Island split between Hilo and Kona. We ordered the risotto, fresh catch (marlin), crispy rice, gnocchi, and finished off with the mac nut ganache mascarpone pots de crème. We did share a Lemon peel lemonade cocktail. The Lemon peel lemonade was basically spiked lemonade. Well balanced for being a tart oriented drink, but I didn't care for the floating bits. The risotto which comes in full and half order, was very rich and had chunks of mushrooms for flavor. We're glad we got the half as this was a heavy, rich, and cheesy entrée on its own. If you love risotto, you will love this dish. The marlin was perfectly cooked and balanced out with a locally inspired vegetable succotash. Fried bits of kalo were also added in for added texture. The special and new item, the gnocchi was the star of the show. This is by far the fluffiest gnocchi we've ever had. Crispy on the outside, little potato clouds of fluff on the inside. The gnocchi came over a tasty sauce with bits of fried onion for absolute perfection. The crisp rice was recommended by Yelpers and it was alright, crispy rice with a spoon of poke. Not bad, but did not live up to the hype. Get another order of the gnocchi instead. It's fairly rare to see pots de crème on restaurant menus, specials or not, so we had to get this. It came in a cute little glass jar, with rich chocolate and mascarpone flavor with a hint of mac nut. This desert was an absolutely delicious perfect end to the meal. You can make reservations online, street parking is quite limited, and it can get busy as the night goes on, so recommended to get an earlier dinning time. Staffs regularly checked in on us and were polite and efficient.

My wife has been raving about this "pho" place in Hilo for a while now. I finally got a chance to…read moretry it and it did not disappoint. First off, any place my wife wants to go to several times means it must be at the top of the food chain! Pho Viet is located in back of Garden Exchange. Apparently there are two pho places so look for Pho Viet - on the right side. Be careful when walking from Haili street as there are sketchy people hanging out on both sides of the road. (What happened Hilo??). Unfortunately there is hardly any parking so you probably have to walk to the restaurant from away. When you go inside the place is pretty small like 6-8 tables but it's constantly filled with people. They all look like they are enjoying their meal. The lady that runs the place is super nice and lets my wife bring her own "additions" to the pho. The pho is really good and you can choose from the usual choices - flank, beef round, tendon, meatball. The broth is delicious and you can order extra noodles which I did. The chili pepper sauce is really really good but make sure you taste and taste. I made mine a little too spicy and had to add more broth - which they made and gave to me. Excellent!!!!!! After eating the bowl, I felt good. I was stuffed but in a good way. The feeling lasted all night and I never had to eat again for the rest of the day and I slept great ! There was a constant flow of people. I guess everyone knows how good this place is. My brother in law says this place is the best in Hilo. I believe it.
