Fodor's Expert Review Bamboo Restaurant & Gallery
This popular restaurant in the heart of Hawi provides a historical setting in which to enjoy a menu brimming with Hawaiian country flair. Most of the creative entrées feature fresh island fish prepared several ways. Try the Hawaii Thai fresh catch made with coconut milk, ginger, sweet chili, bean sprouts, cilantro, and peanuts; it's best accompanied with a passion-fruit margarita or passion-fruit iced tea. Bamboo accents, bold local artwork, and an old unfinished wooden floor make the restaurant cozy. Sunday brunch includes omelets, pupus, salads, and sandwiches. Local musicians entertain on Friday or Saturday.
