Roy's Waikoloa Bar & Grill

Roy's Waikoloa Bar & Grill Review

If you're looking for consistently decent food and you're staying nearby, Roy's fits the bill. The venue overlooks the lake at the Kings' Shops, which, granted, is not an oceanfront setting by any means. If you're simply in the mood for a light meal, you can easily fill up on the enormous selection of great appetizers, and the extensive wine-by-the-glass list offers good pairing options. The three-course meal is a good bet, or try the butterfish for a melt-in-your mouth encounter.

    I've been to Roy's several times and the food has been consistently top-notch, creative and some of the best on the Kohala coast. The waitstaff knows its stuff and their service is quite good. But you've got to put up with a very loud dining room and the chance that your reservation gets lost. And the earlier you make a reservation, the better chance of getting in.

    We have been to Roy's on 4 separate trips, and we have found it to be top notch each time. It is in the King's Shops shopping center, but once you are in the place, you are in a vibrant food atmosphere with an upbeat wait staff and some great local dishes. We love Roy's ahi appetizer, and the daily specials usually have something interesting. We'll return on our next trip.
