The Kona Kitchen is a new establishment that replaced a German Restaurant we had to drink at. We are very excited. The most exciting thing about it is that it is owned by the kid villain from Karate Kid II. His headshot hangs outside the window along with a little blurb about the place.
Inside, the décor is extremely basic, having just opened. They are still building the bar in fact, but it will done by the end of 2002, so we figured, we may as well drink here pre-emptively. Mel, who came along with us, knows the owners and we chatted with his wife. She was such a lovely and friendly person I could not stand it. She had their baby with her and the baby was very cute.
We ordered some crab puffs and you could actually taste the crab in them. The drink was tall and strong and priced at $3.50. A shoutout of thanks goes to Glen for picking up this sponsorship. This little neighborhood restaurant is just what the area needed, Mel told us. I liked it and would come back here for some food and a drink.
I give the Kona Kitchen 3 Martini Glasses out of 5.

Kona Kitchen on Roosevelt.
This restaurant with a full bar is AWESOME!! My sister and I go there all the time! So far this week we have been there at least 5 times now! I'm hooked. All the entrees I have tried are very good.. the buffalo wings are the best I ever had. Before, AppleBee's Buffalo wings were my fav but after trying Kona Kitchen's style, no competition. The sauce is so tangy and spicey... EXCELLENT!! This place is definitely a must! The owners are super nice, super friendly, their daughter is a cutie patootie and the food is excellent. What else could you ask for??

Their little girl is so cute, you need to go in, if not for the food which is AWESOME, but to see one of the cutest kid you'll ever see. She may even come up to your table just to get to know you.
