We found this place by accident because it is off the main street in Kona. We had a bit of a giggle at the names of the dishes on the menu (mainly because we are Aussies). Because we had not been here before we were not sure what to expect. The restaurant was full, but somehow they found us a... More

Good food, great service. They were very accommodating for my family eating gluten free. The prices are reasonable and it was a short walk from the Royal Kona where we stayed.

Something about the Hawaii Outback restaurants that are just very good. Maybe it's the cut of meat, maybe it's the staff, maybe it's just that you're in Hawaii... Either way, we had an enjoyable dinner and all of our red meat entrees were cooked to perfection, which is a big plus for my dad. Outback in Hawaii has the same... More

Went for dinner and had a lovely outside location with view of Kona marketplace and ocean. Food was good and service excellent and of a good speed. Free parking. Had to wait a bit to get in but worth it.

Had seen Outbacks ads and menu online and had high expectations. However, the food was well below average, didn't have much taste, and we felt rather disappointed. We ordered the bloomin onion, which came out looking a little 'sad' and was quite oily and soggy. We also had the buffalo chicken wings, and they were oily! The main dishes were... More

Husband called for reservations, got a 6:15pm for two. We got there few minutes early but they were nice to accomodate us asking if we want outside or inside dining. I dont like eating outside since there are lots of people smoking just few steps of the restaurant. We were seated in a side table, kinda small but it was... More
