We stopped here for lunch on the way to South Point on a Thursday. It is the only restaurant in the area and it was really good. Parking is on dirt across the restaurant. It just opened and we were the first there, so service was no issue but good anyway.
There is an interior table and chair dining area as well as outside, which can get windy. We ordered the “Sunday Loser” Spicy Chix Sando and the Butter Garlic Lemon Shrimp. Wifey's Chicken sandwich was delicious with a flavorful light breading, thick, moist and tender filet. The fries were also very good. My shrimp also had a light crispy breading in a mild flavorful garlic sauce. The Dill slaw was tasty with a light Dill flavor. Both dishes were exceptional, the chicken was one of the best I ever had.
If you are in the area, this is a must stop. Definitely repeatable."
"Stopped at Hana Hou while sightseeing the Big Island on our 50th anniversary trip. Great food & staff, wish we had gotten the server's name to properly recognize her. Fantastic place, would go back in a heartbeat!"
"Very good. One of the best meals we had while visiting Da Big Island. The desserts are amazing especially the macadamia nut pie."
"Cool island breeze, the vibe just right,
Laughter and stories drift into night.
Warm smiles greet you, no need to roam—
At Hana Hou, you’ve found home.
Pizza that sings with a crust so divine,
Fish cooked to perfection, every time.
Cold beer flowing, tunes in the air,
A place full of flavor, aloha, and care.
Come for the food, stay for the soul—
Hana Hou’s magic makes you whole."
"We had a pleasant visit to Hana Hou Restaurant. It is a very nice slow-paced restaurant with a full complement menu. The food is scrumptious and most inviting to the palate. A complete dessert menu. There many dessert options. The offering of drinks was also complete. This a very nice place to take a break off of Hawaii Highway 11. It is near Black Sand Beach.
They were very particular about where we sat. Blocked off area for to go orders."
