We have been faithful patrons of Keei Cafe since they first opened in the old Sam's fish market location. We personally feel this is the best restaurant in South Kona and right up there with the best on the island. Keei Cafe is a small family owned and run business. It is not about speed, so know that coming in...

Description: In 1995 with a vision to open a small family "Coffee Cafe" Owner Bob Miyashiro and his wife Gina open the original Keei Cafe in a old former Fish Market in Honaunau, Hawaii on the Big Island. Finally after borrowing enough from their father, Brothers Bob and Dennis along with Sister Joyce the new Keei Cafe was Born in Hokukano. Again with the Brazilian touch for food friendly colors and using local woods, Gina helped create the decor that surrounds the "New" Keei Cafe at Hokukano. Opened in early 2005, the new Cafe features local artist painting and carvings on the walls. Koa table help make the Cafe have a warm and welcome feel perfect for families or guests looking for a resort type meal with a upcounty price. Family owned and operated with the additon of Gina's sister and Brother in Law, Chef Zeze and Batista, in the kitchen to use the freshes local ingredients to prepare creavtive and and delicious menu items with nightly specials. Please come to experience the flavors!

Loved the selection and the fish was great. We ate there two times and would go back again. Very relaxed with live music one evening we were there and friendly staff. Good location.

The hosts at the Areca Palms Estates B&B recommended Keei Cafe. What a grand dinner. Every dish was unique, especially the bisques and the seafood. And the sauces! We thought we were in Switzerland. This is "the place." Bruce Seltzer, San Anselmo, CA

We shared the roasted chicken split two plates. She had hers with curry and rice/brocollini and I had my half with garlic gravy and mashed potatoes/veggies. Both were wonderful. I...

.....when they were at their original location and the ambiance was spartan and the furnishing were plastic patio tables and chairs. The food was great then and it has only gotten better over time! At the new location there is a totally charming dining room ~ lovely artwork and furnishings ~ an unobtrusive local guitarist playing several nights a week...
