Looking for good food, excellent friendly service, nice ambiance with live dinner music, and ono margaritas and martinis, we recommend you treat yourself to Lehua, previously known as the Sky cafe at Imiloa.
The restaurant was booked for dinner, so my wife and I ate and drank at the bar. Anson was our bartender for the evening. He is personable, friendly, and makes an excellent mango margarita and mango martini. Jimmy who waited and served our food, was very attentive, informative and very personable as well. The overall service was excellent. I ordered the pasta with chicken, and my wife ordered ono that sat on a sweet potato sauce, and topped with a crab salad. Both meals were delicious. Our compliments to the chef. My only recommendation is you work one day of overtime (lol). We are both retired on a fix income, but we try to treat ourselves 2x a month to a fine meal. This evenings meal at Lehua was worth every penny. Thank you for the live entertainment, her sweet nahenahe voice made for a perfect night out. We look forward to patronizing Lehua’s again. Aloha a hui hou.

Magnífico restaurante , fuimos a cenar y fue una experiencia gastronómica estupenda, la comida es muy buena !
Además el servicio espectacular, tuvimos la suerte de que nos atendiera Angie con un gran conocimiento del menú y de la elaboración de los platillos , linda persona !
Un lugar alejado del bullicio pero con instalaciones de primera !
Imperdible , vale la pena visitarlo y tiene buena relación calidad - precio
The wonderful local food, live music, and cozy atmosphere, make this restaurant hard to beat in hilo. Our table ordered a wide righty from the menu, and were pleased with every dish, and the information of where the foods were sourced from. It’s obvious how much aloha went into the feast. A new favorite date night Spot or family celebration place.

We ordered 3 dishes between 3 people to share and could not finish there was so much food. Their gyoza raviolo stood out in flavor, can't skip it. The owner also went around to different tables to talk story; super personable, loves what he is doing and cares about what's happening in the community. The waitress helping us was amazing and made personalized recommendations, they were also extremely patient. Overall, great addition to Hilo!
