    Clam chowder - delicious
    Victoria S.

    The food, atmosphere, and waiter are all top notch. The restroom however... When you go, ask for "Lance" to be your server. He is absolutely amazing and very attentive to food allergy challenges.if you have food allergies this is absolutely the place to eat. Everything is custom cooked.

    I'm watching how much I eat and I decided to just stick with an appetizer. I ordered the calamari and it was completely scorched, dry and it felt like it's been frozen in a bag for a year. One comes to expect somewhat fresh seafood on an island and we've always had really great experience in this restaurant. So it's a shame that this wasn't freshly sliced and prepared but even frozen ones can be prepared correctly. These definitely tasted like they've been frozen for a long time and they definitely overcooked it whether it was frozen or not. Even after removing the batter, it still tasted awful. We love coming here, but I'm wondering if they've changed chefs. My dessert was amazing. It's pounded Taro with vanilla ice cream and coconut milk. Definitely share it if it's available because it's very sweet. My friend had no complaints about his salad. Service was great.

    Prime rib

    Lovely outdoor seating. On main road but intimate and cozy. A live music guitar/singer came out and was just right. I had the prime rib which was wonderful. Very large - enough for 2. Well cooked and the veggies were great as well. I had some raspberry vodka drink which I would love to have again and again. Very refreshing and perfect. Nice service.

    My husband and I were looking to support a local business post Kona low flooding and wanted more of a sit down experience for lunch. This spot had a great vibe, excellent service, and good food. I had a crab cake salad, which was good--nice sized crab cakes, but a little too cakey if you know what I mean; I like mine mostly with crab and not too much filler. My lilikoi kamikaze drink was amazing though! My husband had the katsu-style fish sandwich and fried, which he enjoyed--the fries were yummy too. My daughter had the seafood chowder which was tasty, but I think could have used something to brighten it. All in all it was a great lunch spot!

    Croissant-wich with avo

    Went for brunch with my husband today. Had the avocado croast. Only downside it could've been cut open and less lemon basil. Lemon basil was a bit over powered and due to the bread not being cut open it made it seem so dry. Minor fixes. Love the staff, super friendly. Breakfast days at stonefish are my favorite. Good food and get to listen to Jinna perform. She's one of my Ohana's favorites as she reminds of Amy winehouse. We will miss these places when we move to the mainland. Sunday mornings for breakfast is perfect as it's not too busy as everyone is out surfing.

    Tofu
    Madison W.

    Great drinks and awesome patio! We had apps and drinks, which were good. I really liked the tofu, but the oysters weren't special. Not a lot of flavor and pretty small. Every bite had hard pieces of shell. Our server was kind and attentive, though!

    Crispy hot chicken burger

    The service is great. But we come for the food ofc and just the calamari that I ordered for starters was NOT IT. 10% calamari 90% batter had about 3 pieces of calamari then rest was all batter flakes everywhere... me and my bf ordered the loco moco and crispy hot chicken sandwich As a local from Hawaii in our opinion it's one of the worst loco mocos I've had .. 3/10 bottom of the egg was overcooked (as shown in photo) and the patty was dry . The sandwich was not crispy at all and just tasted like soggy chicken nuggets in a bun . Overall a like a 4/10 mostly for the service bc our server was very kind but food was not great.

    Bottom picture is the prime rib we had in February which was delicious! Top picture is what we had yesterday and it was not good.

    In February we came here and had prime rib for the first time and it was delicious and cooked so well. We decided it was our new place for prime rib. It was tasty and the price was reasonable. I was craving steak so we decided to head to Stonefish for dinner yesterday. We've eaten here since February but hadn't had the prime rib since. We arrived and it was a tad early for dinner so the place wasn't crowded. We sat outside which was nice because the weather was great. Lance was our server and he told us the specials but we told him we were there for the prime rib. He told us the minimum temperature yesterday was Medium. We prefer medium rare, and thats what we had in February, but we thought Medium would be fine so we ordered it. My boyfriend joked that someone must have left it in the oven too long which is why Medium was the only option. We also ordered onion rings and while they were good, they were overdone. It took 15-20 minutes to get our meal so not a long wait. The meat definitely didn't look appealing but we dug in. I really tried to like it and even told my boyfriend it wasn't bad but the more I ate it the more I disliked it. It was more done than medium and I'm not used to prime rib being put on the grill before serving. It really was a stark contrast between the one we had in February and the one we had yesterday. We even discussed if we even wanted to try it again in the future since it was so bad this time. Just not sure if it was an off night or if we just got lucky in February. Since all our food was overdone maybe it was a fluke. We'll likely try another location in Haleiwa that offers prime rib. On a positive note the weather was great and Lance was a really good server.

    Beautiful restaurant with great service! I shared the Crabcake Benedict and Seafood Omelet. Others had the Malasada Pancakes and Spinach and Bacon Omelet. Everyone enjoyed their orders!

    The food here is enough to satisfy you! The portions are pretty large. The Miso Salmon was pretty good, but basic. Nothing crazy, i would probably try another dish when i'm back. The Seafood Chowder was pretty good! The service was amazing! Everyone was so sweet and attentive! Please make sure to tip them well :) The place was very beautiful. There's outdoor seating and indoor seating! such a beautiful place.

    I had been in O'ahu, Hawaii, for several days, searching for a great fish meal. My quest came to an end at the Stonefish Grill on the North Shore. The atmosphere was perfect for a meal in a beach city. The hostess and the entire staff went out of their way to ensure we had an enjoyable experience. We ordered the Blackened Ahi, which was fresh and delicious, and the nut-crusted fish. After tasting it, I knew I had hit the jackpot. The chowder was also exceptional. I look forward to returning to explore the rest of the menu. When you visit, be sure to tell them that Omar sent you.

    Came here for lunch with a friend since it's not that busy at the time. We were greeted by the girls upon entering. The restaurant is pretty neat and cozy and I definitely love the vibes. I just ordered Caesar Salad and their 808 Cheeseburger. Actually it's not the best but it was good enough for my palate to enjoy the burger. Their salad is pretty fresh but I kind'a don't like the dressing. I end up not eating the whole thing. Back to the burger, I love the savory taste on it and I did appreciate the staff when I requested my patty to cook it rare as possible. I would definitely order this if I come back here. Prices are pretty high in here as tourists are their being number one target but I totally understand it. Suggested tip is totally crazy IMO. Will I be back? Not too soon. I'll explore more around. One Cheeseburger at a time.

    Seared ahi... ate most of it before taking a picture, sorry .  Was so Ono!

    I would like to watch the Super Bowl, is TV available and are there enough screens so everyone is not seated on top of each other?

    The only tv's are at the bar (3 I think).and not a ton of seats. If you click on the interior pictures you can see the space and tv's.

    We ate breakfast here 5 years ago and LOVED the crab cake Benedict. We loved it so much, we came back a few days later and were told it's only a weekend dish. We're flying back out next month and want to come by - is this still a weekend only dish?

    The crab cake Benedict is served Friday-Mondays! (: 8am-11am.

    For breakfast: Avocado Toast, Pancakes, Malasada Pancakes, Acai Bowl, Yogurt Bowl, Fruit Bowl, Vegetarian Burrito (ask to omit the cheese and egg on the burrito- maybe sub in avocado smash and salsa)… 

    Is the restaurant dog friendly?

    Dogs are allowed on the outside area (patio). Service dogs for sure, but for regular dogs as long as they don't bark or cause a disturbance it should be fine! I would ask for an outside table when going!

    Is there a happy hour and if so what are the days and times?

    Weekdays 4 p.m.-6 p.m. and 8 p.m.-10 p.m.bar only

    What time is breakfast served till?

    11am

    What does the happy hour include? Is it just drinks or are appetizers included in that as well?

    4-6 pm and 8-10 pm on weekdays. $5 off cocktails and 2$ off of draft beer and wine.

    Does this allow small well behave dogs like 5 lbs out in lanai area?

    What's on the menu? Are the pics of the menu the whole menu? I saw a pic of kids spaghetti but didn't see it on th pic of the menus posted Also the websight listed goes…

The corn was excellent and the ribeye was cooked really well. But the experience had some friction. The host stand felt unnecessarily rigid and disorganized. They would not seat us until the full party was physically standing there, even though the table was ready and the rest of our group was coming from parking. It left everyone awkwardly crowded up front with another party. Service was also slow. Drinks, napkins and basic follow up took too long. We ordered ribeyes and the knives didn't arrive until the steaks had already started cooling, which is a small thing that becomes a big thing when the kitchen actually did its part. The space is nice, but it gets hot and once it got darker the mosquitoes became a real problem. Bring repellent if you are going around sunset. Food wise, it was mixed but mostly good. The drinks were solid, the appetizers were strong and the ribeye was the best thing we ordered. The lobster salad was the weak point, more like boxed mixed greens with overcooked lobster than something worth ordering again. The kids' pizza felt frozen and heavy, but the kids were happy enough. I'd probably come back, but I'd come prepared. Mosquito repellent, patience with the front desk and realistic expectations on service.
