Winning the Diner’s Choice Award in 2017, the Expert’s Choice Award by TripExpert, the Certificate of Excellence Award by TripAdvisor in 2016, and the Restaurant for Renewables Award in 2017, Hilo Bay Cafe is a restaurant a cut above the rest. With delicious food, a great atmosphere and view, and friendly service, there’s nothing not to love about this wonderful restaurant.
Located in Hilo, Hawaii, the Hilo Bay Cafe was opened in 2003 by a team of passionate foodies. With visionary ideas about food and master chef skills, the team at Hilo Bay Cafe consistently deliver great meals and memorable experiences.
The specialties of this popular eatery include delicious organic and seasonal dishes such as artisan sushi and classic French onion soup, craft beer, artisan cocktails, sake, and an impressive wine selection. Some favorites from their extensive dinner menu are the Mushroom Pot Pie with Shrimp and the Maui Rum BBQ Ribs. Their artisan cocktails are delicious and perfectly prepared, try the hibiscus cocktail for a refreshing but not too sweet option.
Another great aspect about Hilo Bay Cafe is that they pride themselves on consistently using locally sourced ingredients, as well as cooking all of their dishes to perfection. The entire staff spends a tremendous amount of time and effort on making sure customers are completely satisfied and sure to return.
But, what truly makes Hilo Bay Cafe so popular with locals and visitors alike is the gorgeous location overlooking Hilo Bay, the true Hawaiian hospitality of the staff, and the laid back but classy atmosphere of the restaurant, which is reminiscent of the relaxed vibe for which Hawaii is world-famous.
