My friends and I are very particular about Sushi, but the food here was amazing! Very authentic and wonderfully fresh, we ordered conservativelyat first but ended up ordering a lot more! The service was great and we weren't hurried along at any point. It's hidden down on e of the side parts of Coconut Grove, so look for the sign... More

Have been to Shiono with my husband. After having tried Seiji Sushi, Shiono cannot compete at all, it is just very average level sushi, nothing special. The service was also disappointing for one of the lady was really unfriendly. If you want to dine for nice environment and decoration, it is good place.

Driving back from the Volcano, we were in the mood for sushi. This did not disappoint. Try the volcano roll, which is topped with macadamia nuts. Our son chose chicken teriyaki. It had such a lovely smoky taste which balanced the sweetness. Extensive sake options.

The decor is beautiful with unique sculptures of clay orchids and origami...if you can, sit at the sushi bar if you want to have fun. The sushi chefs are happy and fun and very lively. We had several rolls and all were good. They have a special sauce that goes with tempura that was extra good (like a dipping soy... More

We had a great experience at Shiono. Not so much at Kenichi Pacific. The service was very good and prompt. The rolls were tasty. We ordered Tonkatsu and it was very good. Delicious salad, rice and miso. The tonkatsu sauce was tasty and the cutlets were very nicely cooked. The only thing I thought was a bit weird was the... More

I love sushi so I am particular. The sushi was just above average but below very good, so a 3 1/2 rating. Tea came out warm and I had to ask for it to be reheated a few times. I ordered ami ebi which was fine but the fried shrimp heads came out cold...yikes. The fish was fresh and unagi... More

This is a hidden gem. It's really not along the street. You have to go in a little bit from the Thai resto in front. Quaint place but very good rolls. We loved the Spider roll and Salmon skin roll!

Good sushi spot just off the main road. Lots of locals eating there, which is always a good sign. The sushi was good, but not out of this world. Would definitely go back.

Loved the Poke. Loved the sushi. Loved the chicken teriyaki. We have come to this restaurant every time we're in Kailua-Kona. I am still thinking about the textures and flavours of this place now that I am back at home. After eating here, you feel light and satisfied. Will definitely be back next trip.
