Impressive place and can't wait to return. Huggo 's and On The Rocks sit next to each other and give guests a lovely beach view for dining while being served by a friendly staff . Try OTR Happy Hour !

Dave Golden

Excellent service , food is awesome, great atmosphere - we assumed it would be a ra-ra college drinking bar but it is upscale and the food is perfect. Watched the sunset with half off pupu's at 5:30.

First come first serve seating! The reservations are for Hugo formal dinning next door! Get there early, put your toes in the sand and enjoy the sunset !

eric bornemann

The place for sunset . Put your name in for waterside early and take a walk, it’s worth it. Casual and fun, the furikake catch is good along with cocktails and the Mauna Kea ice cream pie is obscene.

John Pestka

Big Bam Mai Tai and then enjoy the live music and, of course, the ocean view . Food is tasty and reasonably priced. Yummy burgers .

Debbie Shapiro

The baby greens salad was amazing! Mango , hearts of palm, onion and avocado with creamy lime vinaigrette . Delicious! Island Johnny was our server. Nice man! :-)

Tim Bryan

The sliders during happy hour have an amazing flavor profile! Get them with an IPA . (Pic is from the corner beach table)

Jeff Melnyk

Sunset mai tai and great grilled fish . The hamakua mushrooms are amazing!

MariLou Harveland

We sat at the bar because of the 1.5 hour wait. That & the incredibly slow service is our only complaint. Otherwise, the wait staff was friendly , food tasty, atmosphere festive , & the view supurb.

Robert LePage

Great service, quality entertainment and you can hear yourself think and talk to people at your table. Fantastic location!

Rachael Evans

Amazing guava pulled pork !!! But the seating was terrible to wait for, Lots of people enjoying the music and sitting around drinking makes for a long wait .

Margaret Kearns

Nothing else comes close to this waterfront haunt in Kailua-Kona...check it out on Sunday when LT Smooth is playing. Great music , sunsets , cocktails and onolicious food!

Becki Boor

Best place to see sunset . Queso with some stale nacho chips tho and 2 drinks. 2 guys playing live made things fun.

Jackson

Menu is diverse, even for the picky eater. Sit at a table with your feet in the sand and enjoy dinner , a live band , and ocean views .

andrea mauk

Fresh fish tacos , fried rice bowl , guava lava flow , guava margarita and local draft beer !

Hilton Grand Vacations

Amazing place to catch a sunset and fantastic live entertainment. Food is pretty good too :)

Kristian

Make sure you're proper hungry before ordering any of the omelettes . I prefer the FBI. Kona espresso blend is very, very good.

Dani

Toes in the sand, lively music on weekend eves. Service can be rather slow and impersonal. Drinks and food better elsewhere, but you can't beat the location!

Gurdeep Johal

Decent food but you pay a premium price for the Oceanside view . Come stake out a table along the oceanfront area as it gets busy here fast. Live music after 8pm daily. Drink prices go up after 8.

Akshay Jawharkar

Best sunset on the big island . Come early, get a seat on the sand and just kick back.

Alison

Fantastic band on Sunday nights. Get here early to hear the whole set! They play til 9

Patrick Farrar

Great view ! Special with local fish was awesome

K dar

The bartenders make great mixed drinks . All fish options are great

Damian Bayona

Live music , ocean vibes and cold drinks. Food is decent but it's more about the ambience.

Brian Duncan

Feet in sand while you eat? Yes. Food is ok but view is top notch.

Zachary Rouse

Huggos "on the rocks" is a little bar literally on the beach NEXTDOOR to Huggos.. It's a mini cafe beach version of the main restaurant . And they claim no cell phones allowed, but in using one now =)

Deivis Valenta

If you would like to watch a sunset , then this definitely the spot, but if you would like to have a decent meal then look somewhere else.

Tyler Stratton
