- DDiannePalm Springs / Palm Desert Cities •2 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoHighly recommend this restaurant We were a family of 10 and received the best meal and service of our vacation. Our server was friendly attentive and fun. The food was outstanding. There was live music that was enjoyable as background music. Not too loud and a talented musician. Only problem is they are so popular you need to reserve long in advance but well worth the effort.More infoTommy Bahama Restaurant & Bar - Mauna Lani, Big IslandPrice: Expensive• Hawaii Regional Cuisine• Kamuela•4.8
- EEricVIPLos Angeles •4 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoCanoe House is a special place. The food is truly remarkable. The setting is gorgeous. Our server Dean was outstanding. He really helped make the experience special. He knows the menu and all the ingredients in great detail and was flexible in the way we ordered - allowing is to get half orders of various dishes so that we could create interesting combos. The restaurant is very expensive without a doubt. But they deliver in every way.More infoCanoeHousePrice: Very Expensive• Creative Japanese• Kamuela•4.7

Discover Kamuela
Kamuela, Hawaii, also known as the city of Waimea, is the “paniolo” center of the Hawaiian Islands. One local delicacy is huli huli chicken, which is a barbecued teriyaki chicken. Served with a side of Hawaiian purple sweet potatoes and Hawaiian baked beans (with pineapple chunks in it, of course), this dish incorporates both the fresh flavors of native Hawaiian culture and the smoky flavors of the South. Finish off this meal with some delish haupia, a delicious local pineapple coconut pudding, for dessert. If you miss the flavors of the mainland, there are a number of restaurants that offer burgers, pasta, and other treats. Hawaiian fusion also offers a lot of opportunities to try global foods with island flair.
