   From the hostess to the staff @ bar for happy hour (craig & nicki), to our dinner waiter Marlo, along with the manager our experience was wonderful. The entrees were delicious. My husband had the Thai shrimp & scallops and I had the filet mignon. This location is definitely one of our favorites. Also, had coconut shrimp appetizer & goat cheese dip. Don’t miss having the pina colada cake for dessert! Overall, you won’t be disappointed!

   Our waitress, Susie, was so fun — we felt like we were visiting an old friend! You can just tell she loves her job! On her recommendations, we tried the calamari as a starter, as well as their seasonal burger and Mahi Mahi tacos. Everything was fresh and delicious! We would definitely come back!

   Great place to dine! Happy hour is 3-5, a great value of discounted drinks and starters to choose from the menu. We’ve been coming here for years and are always pleasantly surprised of the friendly service and excellent food, especially the frozen Mai Tai and Chilean sea bass.

   We went for our Mother's Day Brunch at noon. We made our reservation about 6 weeks in advance since there were 9 in our party. Our server was excellent (Thomas) and the food was delicious. The only criticism I would have is that they placed our table outside on the lanai and there was a progressively large area that was open to the blazing sun which made it quite uncomfortable due to the heat and blinding light. It will definitely be a consideration to make sure our reservation is inside, in the future, during the day. Overall, it is a great restaurant and I highly recommend it.

   Tommy Bahamas is a great staple. Food is consistent and service very good. Their coconut crusted shrimp and macadamian crusted fish is really delicious. And they have great Mai Tais. For Hawaii it is more reasonably priced for consistent great food. We go every year at least 2x when we visit the Big Island.

   Another lovely evening at one of our favorite Big Island restaurants. The coconut shrimp, lobster egg rolls and green salad were all delicious. Our server was very attentive, and timed the servings perfectly so we could enjoy a leisurely, and relaxing meal.
