The best tasting food I’ve had in a while. It’s pricey but absolutely worth it. I got the seafood pasta and grab cakes.

Jackie Rey's is always one of our favorite places for a special dinner when we're on the Big Island. From the moment you arrive, the staff makes you feel welcome and takes great care of you throughout the evening. The cocktails were excellent. The mocktail was especially impressive—most are either too sweet or too bland, but this one was perfectly balanced and refreshing. The Whiskey Old Fashioned was equally well done, not too dry and not too sweet, just right. For dinner, I had the ribs, which were a delicious twist on a classic dish with a subtle mango sauce that complemented the flavors perfectly. Nikki enjoyed the Catch of the Day, which was prepared beautifully and showcased the freshness of the local fish. Jackie Rey's is the perfect place to celebrate, relax, and enjoy a wonderful meal while escaping to paradise. Great food, excellent drinks, attentive service, and a warm atmosphere make this a must-visit whenever we're in Kona. A wonderful spot to slow down, enjoy the evening, and make vacation memories.

Sooo delicious! Seafood trio, fresh catch, and mud pie at our table along with the mai tai and honeybee cocktails. Attentive service. Amazing family dinner.

Good but not great. The service was impeccable. Definitely 5 stars there. The food wasn't bad but also wasn't "OMG I want to go back for that" We got the seafood trio The crab cakes were mostly bread, which honestly is what you get in most restaurants. The shrimp was good but there were only two of them so not exactly filling. The atmosphere was pleasant, and as I said the service was top notch.

We arrived at a recommendation of a friend. The Kona Low was approaching fast and furious. The crew had to pull down the art and blinds in what the staff said they haven't experienced. It was wild. The food and service was amazing regardless of the circumstances. Staff was amazing! Shortly after we left there was flooding.

Great service and atmosphere for sure. The good was very good but just a little too expensive for what we got. We got a surf and turf special and it was very yummy but just not exactly what we pictured- wasn't Cajun as was told to us and missed the shrimp, but they brought them out once we mentioned something. Portion was very small. The apps were very yummy! We got a sampler type platter and it was the best part of the meal by far. Beautiful spot for sunset. Cute little bar. Server, busser/expediter and bartender were all great. Water was always full, plates always cleared, order was timed well.

Pork chop was a bit too big proportion wise to the rest of the plate. It was 85% pork chop and 15% side. Seafood trio was great, ube potatoes were a little dry, coconut shrimp were phenomenal. Ceviche was mid. Goat cheese dip was fantastic. Staff was kind and accommodating. Mud pie was a really great flavor, the crust was a little too firm but still great!

Wow! So glad we left our resort and tried this place. Looks are deceiving. Not fancy at all looks like it's been there for a long time but has amazing ocean views. Staff is super friendly and knowledgeable and the food is unbelievable. Those pork egg rolls and coconut shrimp were to die for! Lamb shank was awesome. Go!
