Hilo Bay Cafe

Top choice in Hilo


With sweeping bay views and solid Hawaii Regional Cuisine, this casually sophisticated restaurant could be stuffy. But it's not. Here you'll find a diverse crowd feasting on an eclectic omnivorous menu, including gourmet versions of comfort food, such as Hamakua mushroom pot pie. The sushi is fresh, with creative rolls and an exhilarating sashimi salad with generous slabs of ahi.

The ocean-facing bar serves memorable cocktails ($9.50), including a strawberry-guava mojito and GC&T ('C' = cucumber).
