Best Restaurants for Groups in Kamuela

We came in with no expectations and was blown away by the service, the ambiance, and the food! Our lovely waitress was very attentive and checked on us frequently but not excessively. From the starters and drinks to dinner and our dessert - which I made sure to fit in, all were perfectly portioned. We can't wait to return again for the great hospitality and to try the other dishes!

We were staying across the street at the Westin Hapuna and we’re looking for an authentic Japanese restaurant. Less to choose from in the Kohala area than we thought. Engawa is located across the street a short, five minute walk very convenient. The couple that manages and runs the Omakase experience is very enjoyable very authentic really a lot of fun . They are the ONLY sake Brewery in Hawaii. Thanks small craft beer, sucking style. Omakase menu was delightful with a broad array of flavors and taste all for quality We added the sake pairings. Try it!

We ending up coming back to this restaurant during our day! It was fabulous. The crispy rice with Aji tuna, the shrimp with macadamia nuts, the pork belly fried rice were all spectacular. The service was excellent and the view sitting out on the back deck was nothing short of as spectacular.
