I have to say the brunch was awesome! Not only were the staples of any good brunch available(free-flowing champagne, peel-n-eat shrimp, crab-Yes! I said CRAB!-legs, omelette bar, macadamia nut pancakes, King's Hawaiian french toast, MOCO LOCOS!!!, Bruddah's Spam Rolls, chicken and beef satay, kalua pork, Teriyaki glazed salmon, eggs, bacon, sausage, salad bar, DESSERT BAR, and much more!), but also there was the Polynesian Atmosphere of the banquet room AND live entertainment by REAL Polynesians!!! Dancing, singing and Tahitian Drumming!!! Whatta Brunch!!! "It was like a mini vacation!" I heard being said by a few different people there and I have to agree! Don't miss out on this fun, affordable Sunday activity!

This Edible "Moai" on a Stick appeared on Hiphiphula's plate during brunch.

Wow, that is a close second to Babalu's famous Hot Dog Tiki!

And I am so glad that there are no more cheap plastic lawn chairs in the Hidden Village and the waterfall is going strong. I wonder where things are at with the owner wanting to raze it all for condos, I am always weary when things are quiet, remembering how the Playa del Rey Polynesian Village Apts were doing well and going strong and -wham-, one day the construction fence was up and it went within a couple of weeks.

Best thing to do is support the place by frequenting it regularly, and enjoy it while it's still there!

Kona looks fantastic! The new owner had the place all dressed up I've never seen it look better.! GO! Make it your Fathers Day gift! So worth it :)

we are going tomorrow for fathers Day, and to see the smokin Menahunes at 7 pm.
will prob get there at 6 ish.
hope to see some more tiki peeps there too.

Wow, holy moley! This restaurant looks absolutely crazy. Waterfalls, live shows, and food carved into tikis...that's incredible.

Well, isn't that what your average neighborhood Tiki temple used to be like, and why we like Tiki? :D
The incredible part might be that it's still like that.

We managed to get in for Father's Day brunch yesterday, and I will echo every bit of WooHoo's enthusiasm. We sat in the Kona Room, right up by the stage. As soon as we sat down, one of the hula girls pulled me up on stage for a couple of minutes of HORRIBLE hula dancing by myself. Hula should definitely be left to the professionals! The food was excellent, as was the service. At one point I looked back at the full room behind me...with all the men in Hawaiian shirts wearing leis and all the nicely dressed women and families, it looked just like the postcards of the Tiki palaces seen in The Book of Tiki and Tiki Modern. One thing - why is the musical entertainment named "The Jerome Gray Trio"? Seriously, those guys need a more islander-type name!

Did Tapua play??

That's the group that played...is that what they were named? I could have sworn the CDs up front said Jerome Gray Trio, I thought it was strange. Hmmm maybe a little too much champagne....

I picture this scene in my head and am envious. That is great you were there to participate and soak it all in, good for you!. When my wife and I stopped by for this brunch a couple weeks back, only a few other tables were occupied. I felt it a shame not more people were there to enjoy the atmosphere, entertainment and great food.

We did get there kind of late so maybe we just missed the crowd?
Or, maybe Kona’s brunch is gaining popularity?

I think a big part of it was that it was Fathers Day...we called Saturday night for reservations and they told us they were booked solid. We took a chance and just showed up. Hopefully the pace keeps up....gotta keep it open, there's a wedding reception coming up there next year! :wink:
