Fodor's Review:

About 20 minutes south of Kailua-Kona, Manago is a time-warp experience. A vintage neon sign identifies the hotel, and Formica tables, ceiling fans, and venetian blinds add to the flavor of this film-noir spot. The T-shirts (which are great souvenirs for friends at home) brag that the hotel has the best pork chops in town, and it's not false advertising. The fresh fish is excellent as well, especially ono and butterfish. Unless you request otherwise, the fish is all sautéed with a tasty house butter-soy sauce concoction. Meals come with rice for the table and an assortment of side dishes that changes from time to time, but usually includes a macaroni, potato, and tuna salad, and some sort of braised tofu and sautéed veggie dish.
