This is my first Yelp review!! My wife and I went here Monday night with a couple friends. First off, the food is amazing! This is our second time in so we tried something new... the Chicken Fiesta Philly. Loved it! My wife got the Pastrami. Also fabulous (if you like a little bit of saltiness to it, which we do). We sat out on the lanai and it was perfect weather. HOWEVER... our server, the bitchy man (I think his name is Jameson) was so rude to us. It just seemed like we were a nuisance to him and did something wrong. From the second we sat down he threw the menus at us and walked away. He did bring us water to his credit. But then about 10 minutes later a woman named Connie came and took our drink orders after hearing we hadn't been served yet. (He was not busy with 2 other tables). She was super helpful and friendly. Then he must have seen her helping us because he finally came over after and said "Oh, I guess you're good". Then another server brought our drinks, Katie who was super helpful in recommending fun spots to check out. After dinner, he came back and "Anything else?" We just paid and went into the bar area to chat with the 2 other servers. They were a delight and really turned our night around. Other than him, we loved the place and can't wait to try something different on the menu! read more

We went on a recommendation, that othe Philly Cheesesteak is better than ones in Philadelphia. Excellent!!! He did not steer us wrong. Members of our group selected five other choices. All very good. Don't miss the loaded fries if that's your thing. We found the waitress prompt and friendly. I do have one big complaint though. THE RESTAURANT IS 2500 MILES AWAY FROM MY HOME. read more

The food is priced well for their portion sizes. The service over all was good. Great variety of drinks on tap & can. They asked us a few too many times if we needed anything after we were done with our meal which made us feel like we needed to rush out of there. read more

Not a lot of places you can go to on this side of the island for a good cheese steak or pastrami, and Wyatt's does them fantastically! Would normally have taken a picture, but I guess that just means the food was too good. read more

I loved this place. Not at all convenient but if you're in the area plan a meal around this restaurant. Great sandwiches and fries. Decent beer choices. Super nice staff. Lovely lanai dining overlooking a pretty yard. read more

Comfort. Food. Both the original Philly cheesesteak and pastrami sandwich were excellent, but also massive. Recommend the half sandwich and add fries. Kids grilled cheese and chicken tenders were massive hits. read more

We got out of the Volcano National Park late (past 8pm) and were desperately trying to look for a place for dinner. Then we encountered Wyatt's place on Yelp. We got here 30min before they close and was able to park. As a big party (group of 8), we got seated really fast and were able to place our order shortly. The interior is really cool with game and bar vibes. Their local IPA is so good. It didn't take long for our food to be ready and all the sandwiches and subs were so satisfying and delicious. Fries are also highly recommended. Service was awesome too. Come to this place if you're hungry and is looking for a nice cozy place for dinner that doesn't close early. read more

Food was served fast and delicious. Had the Philly cheesesteak and bread pudding. Both were great. Service was friendly and tentative. They give large portions, so come hungry. read more

Wyatt's place is easy to stop at on the way to volcano. Prices are average for Hawaii. We had a group of eight when we visited and were seated quickly but that may have been the only thing that went quick. Took quite a while to just get the basics and we needed to ask regularly for water, forks and other basics. Food was nothing too special but tasted good. Looked awesome on the plate. Overall an easy place to stop and eat or grab a drink. read more

We had visited the National Park for several hours and was starving. Wanted to eat before our long drive back to Kona. Looked on Yelp and Wyatt's had really good reviews, so, we stopped and had a late lunch. I'm not exaggerating....but probably the best club sandwich I have ever had. The French fries are cooked in beef tallow which made them taste amazing. The service was great, our waiter (can't remember his name) was super friendly and attentive. I would highly recommend stopping here and having a wonderful meal. read more

It's a good place for a beer and a quick bite on your up to or down from the National Park. I tried a French deep sandwich and it was okay. We took our food to go, but they have a nice patio to seat out to eat. We hey also have a bar in the back. The service was good, staff were friendly. read more

Aloha, if you're looking for a hearty sandwich, Wyatt's is your spot. I enjoyed pastrami while hubby loved his Philly cheese beef. Both yummy. Great stop from airport to Volcano. Enjoy! read more

No actually this place is so good. Super chill staff, everyone there recommended the pastrami fries and boy were we not disappointed. The French dip was also stuffed full it was divine. Got guava cheesecake after and the crust was super yummy. This place is absolutely worth it for some quality sandwiches read more

As we are visiting the Big Island, we wanted to try a place a little different and found this place. It's on the way towards Volcanos national park right on the main Hawaii Belt Road. It's a quaint little roadside eatery with nice indoor and outdoor seating. It's nice and clean. We were welcomed by the staff and had a seat. We asked what they recommend, and we decided to share a Pastrami sandwich with homemade hand cut fries. The sandwich was big, that we could share just one sandwich. The bread was super soft, and the pastrami was tender and very tasty. The fries were hot and fresh, and their homemade brown sugar ketchup was perfect. We would like to go back here again and give some of their other menu items a try. So if you are on your way to or from Volcanos National Park, or just want to have a nice hearty sandwich (which they also can make into a burrito or on fries) then give this place a try. read more

Before leaving the mainland for my annual trip to Hawaii to visit my wife's family, I searched online looking for new mom-and-pop eating places, e.g., restaurants and food trucks, that had opened since my last visit. I found Wyatt's Place and was intrigued by the number of great reviews. But, what caught my eye as someone who grew up in Philadelphia, were the reviews of their Philly Cheesesteak. I knew I had to try out their version. Per the menu, the Philly Cheesesteak includes mayo, peppers, mushrooms, provolone and American cheese on a local fresh baked garlic butter toasted roll. I ordered it with no mayo, no peppers, no mushrooms, American cheese only, and a side of marinara sauce. In other words, I converted it into a Philly Pizza Steak. It definitely did not disappoint. The steak, cheese, grilled onions, and marinara sauce made for a fantastic sandwich and I intend to return in a few days before I fly back home. My wife had a pastrami and American cheese sandwich with a side salad. My sister-in-law had what they call a "Chicken Fiesta Philly" sandwich. Similar to the cheesesteak but with chicken instead of steak. We also ordered a large order of French Fries that were perfectly seasoned with salt and pepper and deep fried in beef tallow oil (so not vegetarian, per their menu). They have house-made ketchup that was quite good. We finished off the meal with a lilikoi cheesecake which easily fed all three of us with one quarter of it coming home. It was very yummy! The hostess was very friendly as she took us to our table and gave us our menus. Joe, our waiter, was also very friendly and handled all my changes to their cheesesteak with ease. We could tell the staff enjoyed their jobs and enjoyed interacting with us and the other patrons. The interior is very clean and welcoming. Since this is Hawaii, we sat outside and enjoyed the cool tropical breeze while we ate. We met the owner as we were leaving and told him how much we really enjoyed his food. I hope Wyatt's Place becomes a "go-to" restaurant and stays in business for a very long time so I can continue to return here and enjoy their delicious food. They are located in Mountain View, not too far south from Hilo, Hawaii. Your GPS will take you right to their door. We went at 1 PM for lunch and there was no wait (my favorite way to try out a new restaurant). I highly recommend giving Wyatt's Place a try for their great food, great service, and friendly staff. read more

If there were such a thing as a redneck sports bar in Mountain View, Hawaii, this is the place. And I mean that in a good way. Food is delicious, beer is plentiful and enough TVs to make sure your favorite sporting event is available. read more

Food is alright. Pool is fun. We were charged a 25% gratuity for a friend's birthday party!

Wyatt's Place - A Hidden Gem with Great Potential Wyatt's Place is one of those spots that feels like a well-kept secret. Tucked away in what I'd call a welcoming "hole in the wall," this brand-new restaurant is already showing some real promise. It's cozy, intimate, and carries a laid-back, local charm that made me feel right at home the second I walked in. The place also felt very clean, which added to the overall comfort and experience. The staff? Outstanding. Every single person I interacted with was warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly. You can tell they're passionate about making each guest feel like family, and they nailed it. Drinks & Atmosphere: Their selection of alcohol is impressive, especially for a smaller establishment. Whether you're in the mood for a cocktail, a local beer, or something stronger, there's something for everyone. Combine that with the casual, friendly vibe and you've got a great place to unwind after a long day (or hike, in our case!). Now to the food - We ordered the steak and cheese sub, the meatball sub, and a side of fries with their homemade ketchup. Homemade Ketchup & Fries: This was an unexpected highlight. The fries reminded me of Five Guys-style fries -- thick-cut, rustic, and golden -- but dare I say, even better. Paired with their homemade ketchup, which had a beautifully balanced flavor (not too sweet, just the right tang), this combo really hit the spot, especially after a long walk on the lava rock trails. Meatball Sub: Absolutely delicious. The meatballs were flavorful, the sauce was spot-on, and the bread held up nicely. No complaints here -- just good, solid comfort food. I'd 100% order it again. Steak and Cheese Sub (Philly): This one had a lot going for it, but it could use a few adjustments. The steak itself was tasty, but the sandwich was very heavy on the cheese, to the point where it overpowered the other elements. I found myself missing the flavor of the peppers, onions, and steak because the cheese took over the spotlight. The sandwich also slid apart a bit while eating, likely due to the cheese. With a lighter hand on the cheese and maybe a touch more seasoning on the steak, this could be a standout item. Final Thoughts: Wyatt's Place is new, and you can tell the team behind it truly cares. They've already built a strong foundation with friendly service, quality ingredients, cleanliness, and a relaxed atmosphere. A few small tweaks in the kitchen, like letting the ingredients shine by easing up on the cheese or using a different cheese, could easily take their menu from good to exceptional. I'm excited to see how they continue to grow, and I'll definitely be back to support them. If you're in the area, stop by for a drink, try those fries, and enjoy the aloha spirit that Wyatt's Place offers. read more

This was hands down the best sandwich I've ever had. I got the Philly Cheesesteak, my husband got the pastrami. We shared. The sandwiches are very filling, so if you don't have a big appetite, definitely get half. The service was spot on! I got a frozen glass for my diet coke. Swift service. Attention to detail, in everything. Beautiful location, the outside was clean, grass was trimmed. Kitchen clean, tables clean. I highly recommend, and hope they stay for good. read more

If this isn't one of the best hidden hotspots Hawaii has to offer, I honestly don't know what is. The food and service here are top-notch--everything was dialed in. You've created something really special. What stood out most was the hospitality. You even went out of your way to buy me a drink, which says a lot about the kind of experience you're creating. It's rare to find that level of genuine care. Anyone within 100 miles should make the trip--you won't regret it. --Darrell read more

We also got a fresh passionfruit lemonade which my boyfriend loved! Would go back 1000%!! Come here for food!!! read more

Great service, amazing food! Great for celiac people. You won't go wrong eating here!

They keep raising their prices and making their portions smaller. It was great when they first started serving food but somehow introducing a bar made them more greedy. I used to come here multiple times a week but unfortunately they are pricing out the locals. It used to be $18 for a sandwich and loads of fries and now it's $24 if you want both or $26 if it's the meatball or chicken parm sandwich. read more

We stopped at Wyatt's because it was one of the few places open at 3:30pm near Volcanoes National Park, and I'm glad we did. My wife and I split a French dip sandwich and it fed us quite well - and it was very tasty, too. So were the fries. Very good food, great prices, friendly service. read more

I came to this place with my family on our very first experience here in Hawaii. We wanted to have a nice calm meal. When we arrived customer service was tense as the waitress told my family and I to call before when arriving. We respectfully apologized and continued to thank then for their service. We begin to order and I was the first to order my meal then the rest of the family. As my family got their meals. I waited patiently. Then my family finished their meals and I never received mine. Not once where were checked on and asked if everything was okay. My cousin had to go up to the register and ask for our meal. They said they did not place the order. As someone who works in costumer service it's important to check on guest and make sure orders are correct. This could have been prevented. Not only that their was an egg shell in my cousins loaded fries. Also the table next to us also reported not getting their order correct as well. Btw. They did eventually gave us our food. burger was mid. We tipped $7 dollars and heard waiter say "I got 7 bruh!" Good service = good tips read more

Best sandwiches hands down! Friendly service and cozy on a rainy day. Get the pastrami with avocado added.

Mmm, delicious! I like their French dip sandwich, along with the Philly cheesesteak and pastrami sandwiches. You can either dine-in or take-out, and now with their recent extension, is their sports bar where they have LIVE music on Friday and Saturday nights and on Sundays, you can watch football games or whatever sports is on. The restaurant staff/cooks and servers are friendly, the sandwiches sizes are very generous. So if you are heading south to visit the Volcano National Park or heading back northbound to Hilo they are conveniently located (mauka side) or mountain side of Hwy 11, aka Hawaii Belt Rd. please stop by Wyatt's Place, the restaurant and bar has a relaxing ambiance to unwind and enjoy a beverage and tasty meal. read more

The lady was super nice and the sandwiches were tasty. We got home with them to find... NO au jus for the French dip. Wifee was like, what kind of French didn't have the dip? Roast beef sandwich. But I do not recall seeing that in the menu and we order a French dip and a pastrami. Been wanting to try this place for a while now. read more

Joe, Jameson, Eva, and Israel can't say enough about how awesome they are! (I mention them by name because they are the only ones we have met so far but also because they really are amazing).
