“Located in a non-descript spot right off the beach, this is some of the freshest and tastiest poke you’ll ever enjoy. The team is knowledgeable and their service is fast and efficient. Go early as they do run out often on busy days. Seating outside is the only option on two picnic tables and no dining indoors so be prepared to squeeze in and make new friends with other customers. A great meal and well worth the wait.“

“We stopped by Rock'n Crab with a group of 12 and, despite not having a reservation, they seated us right away, which was greatly appreciated.
The food was good and everyone in our group enjoyed their meals. The service was okay overall. Since we had a large party, it took a while for all of the food to come out, and a few people at our table ran out of drinks before getting refills.
That said, the staff did a good job accommodating a large walk-in group and making sure we were taken care of. Overall, a good dining experience, especially considering the size of our party.“

We got the calamari to start (this was amazing BTW). For the main dish, I got the poke bowl and my mom got fish tacos. They were both so good we ended up splitting the two.

More than the food, the vibes were immaculate and so Hawaiian. I would love to come here again.“

“My wife and I celebrated our 20th Anniversary on the Big Island and wanted to experience the best the island had to offer. Ulu Ocean Grille did not disappoint! Here is a summary of our dinner: We thoroughly enjoyed the Ebi Tempura roll - (it was good enough that we have encouraged several family members to join us at Ulu this evening for sushi and dinner) For our entrées we had the Mahi Mahi and the Spicy Crab Noodles. Both were perfectly prepared, very flavorful, and the presentation was perfect. For dessert, we couldn't decide between the chocolate or vanilla (the flavor of the evening) soufflé, so we got one of each (you only celebrate 20 years once!). Again, perfectly prepared and presented and was thoroughly enjoyed. And I can't overstate how excellent the service was. The staff went out of their way to make the experience memorable. It was the best dining experience I have ever had and I don't expect to top it soon, unless they outdo themselves when we return this evening. Ulu & Four Seasons Resort - well done!“

72-300 Maheawalu Dr, Kailua-Kona

“The drinks are great, love the art on the menus, but I will say the Conrad Mai Tai which is a specialty at this bar feels overrated to me. It is a bit too alcoholic. The Moana Mai Tai at the restaurant next door is much better.

They have sushi nights sometimes, and the sushi is a solid average in NYC. Would eat, but not go out of way to get.“

“The shrimp Foo Yang is great I’ve been ordering it for 7 yrs. But recently I switched to soft shell crab & it’s outstanding. I could never get my soft shell crab to turn out like there’s. It’s so crispy and 1 order is enough but I can’t help myself & have to have a 2nd order. You get plenty in 1 order. I won’t be ordering my crab from anymore even though it’s fresh, I can’t cook it like they do here at Ocean seafood. I’m a retired Fire Capt from Ca. And all firemen live great food.“
