    Spring rolls
    Amita K.

    Best pineapple Thai seafood curry!!! It's super delicious. If you're in the national park, must visit. We ordered take out and ate in the park but it's a full sized restaurant with seating. Spring rolls were heavenly!

    Best cosmo.

    A great find outside of Volcanos National Park. Family run. Incredible service, super clean and great food. One of the best Cosmos I've ever had-superb. Don't miss this gem. They also have a "Western Menu" in case you have picky eaters in your group. Love this place.

    Tom Yang soup

    I've been looking for nice Asian food for my parents while traveling in Big island. I could choose restaurants very limited because they have very picky tastes. They wanted try American or Italian or Chinese or etc but seems like they didn't really like it. I found this place on the Yelp. Looks nice My family was enjoying this place food. Maybe we choose great menu. I really recommend this place whoever visit volcano area. Papaya salad was really great and this is my all the time favorite menu anywhere else but this place papaya salad was outstanding. Tom yam soup also outstanding but a bit small plate. Pad Thai was great too. Thai iced tea was so so. Very big restaurant but very quiet place. Our waitress was super friendly. Definitely go back this place again if I travel to here again.

    Decor is cute

    A classic third generation owned and operated Thai restaurant. Pride in quality authentic Thai cuisine and cleanliness. This is by far the best Thai restaurant on island. I live two hours away; as a lifetime resident I am not in a hurry to grab and go my dining offerings. I love to sit inside; look at the photos of the family history and smell the smells of fresh lemon grass, bayleaf and all of the aromatics used in this scrumptious bowl of Thom Gah Soup. The sticky rice is divine. Service from Pan and family, precise. Slow food. Be kind. These are beautiful people with Aloha. I will always return time and again to Thai Thai Bar and Bistro. The finest authentic Thai island-wide.

    Pineapple fried rice w chicken

    This is a weekly spot for us. It's my comfort food. It's my safe place. This place is pricy! But If you are visiting the park you don't have many options in the area. Dishes are full of flavor. Plenty of food to fill you up. All the meats are ono. Shrimps are huge and they give you a lot of them. Chicken is tender and delicious. Mahi is good as well. Firm white fish. Small hot is quite spicy. some days are hotter than others. Highly recommend the soups. My only complaint is getting 1/3 of the container aromatics. For $25 I would be able to eat all of it. The fried wontons and spring rolls are NOT worth it in my opinion.

    Chicken pad thai
    Anna L.

    Overpriced for mediocre Thai food but they are one of the only restaurant to still be open in the evening. The Thai iced tea was delicious but the food was not. I had the chicken pad thai which was average and bland. My partner had the pad kee mao but beware that their medium spicy is very spicy.

    pad thai, green papaya salad
    Sarah C.

    we got the green papaya salad ($17) and the pad thai ($25) and unfortunately I wouldn't say they were worth the 40 minute wait (takeout only). the pad thai was kind of hard and so was the green papaya. bonus points for the huge portions though

    Tastes good but pricey. Still much better than the food trucks in the area though. If you are in volcano, I think a visit is worth it.

    Great Thai food in the Hilo area! The wait staff works their butt off, the lunch rush is very busy,…read moreand the food tastes great! I ordered the red curry. The lunch special is served with an Asian side salad that has a vinaigrette dressing, which was a nice way to start the meal. The curry itself was also great. Portions are large, and the curry is served with a side of rice. The dish has a lot of veggies, a lot of flavor, and a perfect kick of spice. Seems to be a local favorite during the workweek for people who work in the area, and I can see why!

    Came here for a late dinner on a Saturday night. There wasn't a designated parking lot, but we were…read moreable to find street parking up the road. The restaurant wasn't super crowded, so we were able to get seated right away. For three of us, we shared the green papaya salad, pork basil, green curry, and pad kee mao. I loved the variety of the food. You can never go wrong with a Thai noodle dish, and the pad kee Mao was definitely my favorite. The noodles were the perfect texture and very flavorful. The papaya salad had a good crunch, and the green curry was delicious. The pork basil dish was a little interesting, and I would probably skip this the next time. Overall, this meal hit the spot, and I would definitely come back here if I'm craving Thai food.

    So the Eagles Lighthouse Cafe is no more. Let this be a eulogy then. For starters, let's go with…read morethe praise. The food was great. Nice down home cookin', reasonably priced. Now for this. The place was festooned with Bible quotes, Biblical vignettes in the windows, and the three flags of Christian Nationalism garishly out front - the US flag, the Israeli flag, and the nationalist "Plea To Heaven" flag. All paradoxically in tatters and never taken in for good keeping. It did not give off a welcome Biblical vibe though - just one of "agree with us or take it down the road." The kitchen and counter personnel were usually fairly nice people who gave great service. The owners, when they were present, gave off something entirely different. Like you were inconveniencing them by being there. Short tempered and terse if they took your order. If you read the earlier comments, you will hear of them coming unhinged and screaming at some customer about something either overblown, or imagined. They refused to pay their employees properly, with something even close to a living wage. When the Hawaii legislature finally hiked the minimum wage, they stuck out an alarmist notice written in childish green marker that they were sooooo sorry but they "had to" raise their prices a bit because the mean old Hawaii house raised the wage. And of course taxes under Biden, yada yada. In the end, the ELC was a victim of the owners' disposition. It's a very bad business model indeed, when politics, religion and greed actually get in the way of doing business. My best wishes to the employees, I really hope they can find something decent to replace this experience. For the self righteous, sanctimonious greed of the owners and operators - as Jesus said, "Yeah verily, you have your reward."

There…read morewas plenty of parking but the service was unfortunately very slow and I would say they weren't the friendliest. It was a very small spot with outdoor seating only. They have a variety of menu options which include some desserts. The breakfast bowl with sausage and bacon was okay and the iced coffee was fine. It was mainly the service which brought my review down. Hopefully others have or will not have the same experience but I recommend trying them out if you're in the area.
