Our best meal in Hawaii has been at Liko Lehua Cafe! We had one of the specials of the day (Jalapeño Pork Sandwich) — it was so good and a great way to end a magical day hiking near Hilo.
Can’t wait to go back!!
TO GO ONLY
They have a little bench off to the side but I wouldn't recommend sitting there. They have good, well priced, food and drinks for you to take somewhere and picnic. They are busy so there will be a little wait, and they only have a couple parking spaces to stop in, but good for an on-the-go.
Amazing food and friendly service. Love this place!
We are tourists who drove in from Kona. From the time we arrived until we left we encountered smiles, honest recommendations and amazing customer service. We ordered the Balsamic Cheesy Bread, Chicken Risotto, and Garlic Chicken (Shrimp) Pasta. Our waitress actually suggested the last with the subsitution when we told her we were a no for seafood and loved cheese and garlic. All of the food was great and the servings were huge! We noticed a lot of people coming in who knew the workers or the other guests. Liko Lenhua is a great local restaurant with a sense of pride and treating everyone as family.
We mainly went because it was close by our hotel & prices were reasonable ($15-$26 for entrees). The ahi rice bowl special was excellent! My mom loved her coconut shrimp. 2nd best meal I've had so far (#1 is Da Kitchen on Maui). Noms!
Very good food and staff, would definately recommend. Had catch of the day with a summer salad and it was perfect. Crab cakes were delicious also.
Agreed with others, probably our best meal on the whole trip. It was nestled in a neighborhood and close to the waterfalls. We took our meal up in the mountains and ate. The flavor was awesome and we wish we would have ordered more crabcakes
Love the vibe in this restaurant! Full me u
Menu, lots of choices, good service, great location, Food was amazing! Onion rings hot, crunchy, I got the AVOCADO BLT on a torta! Garlic aioli was yummy, as was the pretzels with liliquoi butter you get at the beginning (the butter you can also buy). Can't wait to go back!
Understated place with friendly service and good food! Worth the stop. Chicken mac nut salad is excellent and the lilikoi lemonade.
Great place, family friendly, good food a little on the pricey side, but well worth it. Friendly Hostess and Waiters that was always there to serve and make sure everything was okay. The lighting was decent compared to other restaurants that I've been in where you need a flashlight to read the menu. It's a casual dining place where you can order alcohol with your food and conversate freely with other people in your party.
This is a family owned and operated restaurant. Order at the window and take the food home or eat outside at the bench seating.
They have delicious burgers, loco Moco, and fish and chips.
They serve pasta too.
We stopped by for lunch on our way to Volcano National Park. It was a great meal and no line. While we waited they gave us little donuts and noticed that they take care of their community members. The crab cake sandwich was good and the fish and chips were great.
The Jalapeno Burger is AMAZING! I've had it twice now, perfect both times. The Maui Brewing Coconut Porter is super smooth and tasty. The Avocado BLT was pretty average. The Fried Ice Cream was extra good; thick crust, flavorful ice cream, shareable size. Classy decor, friendly wait staff.
The food taste as good as it looks. Friendly service & one of my new favorite places to eat with my hubby for dates 💗. Highly recommend!
***Aloha to go***
Whether you have time to sit and eat at their outside picnic area or call up and order some Aloha to go definitely ono grinds!!! Whatever your choice definitely try the lilikoi coconut(lilicoco) milkshake..So Ono!!

Mellow atmosphere. Good and affordable food. Great drinks. Ample parking. Friendly staff. It would be five stars if they were open on weekends.
Great local option that serves some very delicious food (both traditional American, Hawaiian, and unique twists)! I tried the liliokai butter burger and it was sooooooo good. It's different (cream cheese etc,) but tasted fantastic. My wife had the panko fish and chips and they were good, not overly fishy tasting. The fries weren't as crispy as hoped and the parking is cramped, but I'd definitely stop in again.
