    I was craving for a smoothie and decided to come here since it's close to the resort and it's a new place. I figured, if this island is all about tropical fruits then maybe I can try something exotic and quench my craving. Smoothies are $6.99, one size. I picked the Pink dragon over the Strawbananarama-ade because I wanted an exotic fruit. The pink dragon is dragon fruit, sorbet, soy milk, and banana. First there was not really a line but a bunch of people standing in front. I had to ask if they were waiting for their drink or pick up. Turns out only one person was ahead of me. She was there for awhile. It took another while before we were acknowledged and our orders were taken at the same time. I was given a yellow receipt and you take that to the register to pay where they mark it before you come back to claim your drink. When I got my drink, I took my first sip and it tasted like something I couldn't remember at the moment. Then I realized the best way to describe the flavor is Bubble Yum! It tasted like bubble yum! I was expecting freshness with more dragon fruit but you can tell it was mainly sorbet and rich in thickness with the ice. Based on this, I would have give a 3 since I have nothing else to compare it to. Although their bowls look good with offering only two flavors. Açaí and Pitaya. There's happy hour promotion from 4pm to 6pm until Sep 5 for 10% off $7.99. They also claim to be the first and ONLY freshly brewed made to order service on the island. So I would like to give them another chance and try their milk teas and lemonade. The milk teas offer choices of zero, half or 100% sweetness which is great while the smoothies are with soy or almond milk so great for lactose.

    Jasmine milk tea, mango green tea, and hojicha milk tea

    I ordered 3 drinks and asked for light ice which is pictured below. The lady told me since I ordered light ice, this is what I'll be getting. I can't believe it's only 90% full. I came here two days ago after I landed and thought it was decent, so I came back here to receive this kind of service. I guess it's my fault to ask for light ice because I didn't want the ice to water down the drink. I honestly don't even consider this light ice. The drinks here are definitely half milk tea and half ice just from the picture below. I might've been a little too desperate for this. Will I come back again for the third time? Probably not, I rather drive 40mins to Kona for milk tea. Hopefully, they will change their service and live up to their award title.

    Honeydew milk tea with lychee jelly. My go-to.

    Boba is life. And there is finally life on the West side of the Big Island. I can't speak for the Hilo side, but Kona has never had a decent boba spot.....ever. Enter Teapresso Bar. 100% legit milk tea / boba joint. This is the good stuff. I live 80+ min away from Waikoloa, and always hated driving there unless I had to. Now I look forward to the weekend, to drive there JUST for milk tea. A store-within a store, Teapresso is a corner of the deli of Island Gourmet Markets, which is an anchor store at Waikoloa Queen's Shops. Whoever decided to buy some milk tea equipment and teach the deli workers how to make the drinks- I thank you. Each drink is 24 oz, and milk teas are the standard base. From there, you can choose what type of tea as well as any add-ons (boba, coffee, rainbow or lychee jelly; .50 each). Each tea has a sweetness level next to it, if available as an option (0-100%). My favorites are the Signature milk tea with 0% sweetness, and an add on (boba or jelly). They balance each other out and isn't too sweet. Honeydew milk tea is very very good, but you can only get a minimum sweetness of 50%, so that may be too sweet for some. I usually rotate between honeydew and signature, each time. I also sit around long enough to drink two of them each trip. 10 drinks on your stamp card gets you a free one. I have two free ones in 6 trips I usually like plantation iced tea and gave it a shot here. I didn't care for it. It tasted almost carbonated, and tasted more like lilikoi/lemonade instead of iced tea/pineapple juice. I don't think I'll be trying again. Other teas I have had and enjoyed were the jasmine, hojicha and genmaicha. Service is always good. The workers are friendly and I often ask them what their favorites are. Honeydew has been the most common reply. Someone else has mentioned this, but the ordering protocol here is a little funky at first. You will probably see people standing around, hovering near the counter. Once you figure out who is and isn't in line, you place your order at the counter. You are then issued a yellow receipt which you then take to a register within the bigger store. Once you pay (big fat red stamp that says PAID on your yellow receipt), you then take it back to Teapresso counter. Weird, but all good. I can't wait til I'm back for more. What used to be a dreaded drive to Waikoloa is now joyous. Maybe I'm glad Teapresso isn't in Kona town. I would possibly be there daily. Yikes

    If you are staying in the Waikoloa area, this will be your go-to market. We came here everyday, and…read moresometimes multiple times a day. They have everything here, including hot foods, deli sandwiches, musubis, baked goods, malasadas, fresh sashimi and poke bowls. They also have supermarket items like fresh fruit and vegetables, drinks, dairy, chips, bagels, etc. There's also a wine and beer section, t-shirts, Hawaiian shirts, and other knick knacks. And everything is good to very good quality. The food is really good, and there's some outdoor seating right outside the market. We came here for breakfast and dinner, and it's nice because everyone can choose what they like since there's such a variety of items. Some of the items we've tried: + Kalua pork breakfast burrito (5/5) - meat was smokey and juicy. Burrito grilled nicely. + Spam Musubi (4/5) - very good; rice could have used a little more flavor but I'm being picky. + Poke bowl (4/5) - the poke itself was very good and fresh. Toppings were limited. + Cut fruits (4/5) - watermelon was especially good; the melons were ok. + BLT Breakfast sandwich (5/5) - was very good and came with fried potatoes. + Banana bread (3/5) - good but overall taste was sweet and not enough banana flavor. This was our go-to market during our trip. We loved coming here and the staff is so friendly.

This is an open air restaurant and at first I was hesitant because of maybe having to deal with flies but we didn't run into any issues. There was live music playing. We ordered the farmer's plate of veggies to accompany the muhammara dip (which came with 4 pieces of wood fired bread). It was flavorful, fresh, and light. My husband ordered the skirt steak and I ordered the ahi steak. We also ordered the frozen fruit punch twice. This was plenty of food for us so we skipped on dessert. Everything turned out delicious to us and we quite enjoyed our evening.

    One of the best dining experiences we had during our 3-week trip through Hawaii!…read more I had been looking for Mediterranean food through our stays in Oahu and Maui, but wasn't able to find any til we landed here on Big Island. We went during sunset and it was sooooo beautiful. We ordered: * the 3 dips - loved their muhammara!! Plus the bread is so squishy and soft it absorbs the flavors of the dips so well * burrata salad - very refreshing and well seasoned. I believe it's peach or melon served with it, a very nice touch * grilled octopus - loved the tomato(?) sauce it was served with, and the way they grilled was perfection. Reminded me of the octopus I'd have in Kerekennah, a small island off the coast of Tunisia. Fresh & well seasoned. * Cacio e pepe + chicken: really appreciated how they noticed my husband and I were sharing everything, so they had split the pasta into two bowls. Deliciously made, with it had a bit more sauce tho and that the chicken wasnt so dry. * inside out smores: YUMMY. loved the combo of the graham cracker ice cream with the roasted marshmallow and chocolate sauce + inside the marshmelllw too. In all we spent $190 for 2 people including tax and tip (no drinks). Sure a bit on the pricier side, but we had been spending $90-110 for very average or not even good meals across Hawaii anyways, so didn't seem too bad. Parking is free! Valet only, but give your ticket when you get the check to get a 3-hour validation stamp.

    It's a real downgrade from previously…read more Not much choices to choose from ... unless you want pizza, salad, and sandwiches... an ice cream Pizza takes about 20 minutes it's made to order . I had to wait an additional 20 minutes because she ordered the wrong pizza. They also have lunchables for eight dollars.. Ice cream is OK . There are 10 flavors to choose from. It's very casual. It's by the pool.

    Cheapest food in Hilton Waikoloa Village…read more Everything here is take out, with hours 10-4 daily. Came here for an early dinner, and ordered the $24 11-inch Hawaiian Pizza, and the $16 chicken wrap. The Hawaiian pizza came with provolone cheese with toppings of bacon bits, ham and pineapple. The crust was too doughy, and bland. Not enough crispness, and almost no tomato sauce. They also shortchanged you on the meat and pineapple. Tropics Ale closest restaurant outside the village offers a $14 12-inch pepperoni pizza during happy hour 2-5pm. The chicken wrap was outstanding, with a tasteful blend of diced chicken, mayo, celery, and cranberry to give it some sweetness. So good that i ordered it again on a return visit. Second visit ordered the $18 18 oz mandarin chicken salad, and $18 18 oz cobb salad. Both came with salad dressing packets, and decent amount of salad additions to the cut up iceberg lettuce. You can get the same 18 oz salads at Island Gourmet in Queens Market for $12. 38 minute walk to Island Gourmet. The salads here do come in compostable packaging. Thinking of eating the salad before your plane takes off at the Kona airport? Laniakea restaurant at the airport sells 18 oz salads for $16. Cheapest food in Hilton Waikoloa Village is like saying cheapest food at Disneyland. They have a captive audience and price things accordingly. You know things are overpriced when they are more expensive than the airport restaurant.
