First to arrive; last to leave. Horrible horrible service. We knew we would spend a lot of money, and the money was really consistent with the quality of the food. However, I have seriously had better food service in an iHop. The service absolutely sucked!!!!!! When you spend $500 for dinner, there should be spotless and perfect service. Just as... more

All of Hawaii seems beautiful... it is just better planned and tended to at the 4 Seasons... without seeming artificial. Pahu ia is a lovely place and have a great meal. While I have had breakfast, lunch and dinner there.... they don't seem to always have lunch. The food is excellent, the service is very good without being obtrusive. The... more

If, however, you've traveled a bit, you'll find this above average, but not really much more. The food is good, and the service is good, but what you're paying for, is a very scenic location. That said, I did enjoy the meal and the grounds are well done. Like many, many other locations on the island, the waves are floodlighted,... more

This restaurant has one of the most fantastic settings on The Big Island (Hawaii Island, state of Hawaii.) We have never had a bad meal, and we eat there often. Like many of the wonderful places on The Big Island, this restaurant -and the resort in which it is located (The Four Season, Hualalei)- is not visible from the Queen... more

I have eaten dinner here twice over the last two years. The service is generally good, but the quality of the food - particularly given the high prices - has on both occasions left us wanting. The spot is undeniably romantic, and so if you want a nice spot for dinner this is it. But if you also want a... more

Of all of the places we dined at during our recent trip to the BI, this was by far the WORST meal. Our previous experience left me with fond memories of delicious food coupled with top notch service, so we thought we'd go again to enjoy a memorable evening - Not so much. The hostess greeted us appropriately and took... more

On our last night in the Big Island, we decided to have dinner at Pahu ia. I specifically wanted to dine at 6 p.m. to be seated and enjoy the sunset. The valet person assumed we were part of another party arriving at the same time and told us the wrong and long way to the restaurant. Unfortunately, we missed... more

Pahuia is the finest restaurant on the Big Island! My wife and I ate here every morning for the Big Island Buffet which would equal or best the nicest Sunday brunch at a large urban Four Seasons. One benefit hear is that you sit directly overlooking the ocean and the views can't be beat. For dinner it is similarly elegant... more
