K's Mrs Toll House Restaurant Silver Spring, District of Columbia
A really nice little restaurant. It's in an old house-the atmosphere is really cozy and romantic. The food is excellent and the service is great. For those of you with kids-there's no kids menu and there is a minimum charge. If they've got venison on the menu when you go (they change menus seasonally) try it-it's really good.
Mrs K's Toll House Restaurant Silver Spring, District of Columbia
Also listed as K's Mrs Toll House in this list (??). A romantic little restaurant in an old house. The atmosphere is really cozy. The food is excellent-try the venison if they've got it on the menu when you go (the menu changes seasonally). For those of you with kids-there's no kids menu and there is a minimum charge.
Gazebo House of Pancakes Williamsburg, VA
The best pancake house in the area. They have every flavor of pancake you could imagine. Try the chocolate chip pancakes. They're yummy! The bacon pancakes are good, too. There are lots of other menu choices if you're not into pancakes. The service is great (and fast), the food is great.
Hershey's Chocolate Town Cafe Hershey, PA
A nice place to sit down inside and get away from the amusement park traffic. (It's outside the entrance to the park.) Most of the restaurants in the park are outside seating, so you can cool off here. The food's pretty good-standard tourist menu choices, but tasty. The service isn't bad-try not to get seated near the children's play area, though-it's kinda annoying when you're trying to eat having to listen to a bunch of kids scream and carry on. (Those of you that have kids will probably take exception to that, but we don't have kids and don't want to listen to someone elses misbehave.) The desserts are the best part of the menu.
Gordon Biersch Brewery Rstrnt Honolulu, HI
We're not beer drinkers, but we actually found beer that we like here, so for those of you that are beer drinkers, that must mean it's excellent (like everyone above has said). The entrees are HUGE. We went with friends and they warned us just to order one entree and share it-they were right. The portions are enormous and the food tastes excellent. Outdoor seating has a nice view and sometimes there's live music. Service was good, also. Try the garlic french fries-yummy!
Hong Kong Harbourview Seafood Honolulu, HI
The service is horrible. There was a big wedding party there the evening we went and everyone was obviously more interested in serving them than us. It took entirely too long for the courses of our dinner to arrive, then it took too long to get the bill, even. And then they made it a point to catch us after we left the table to tell us what 15% of the check (the tip) should have been. We then explained to them that a tip isn't mandatory, a tip is based on the quality of service, and we felt that the bad service we recieved was only worth the $1 we left. Since they spent so much time on the wedding party, we figured they oughta go chase them for a tip.
Lobster & Crab House Honolulu, HI
Japanese influenced foods, but there's something for everyone and the service is really good. April ordered the lobster tail and mahi mahi, which was good, but not great-the lobster wasn't what we're used too, kind of bland (it was a spiny lobster-that could be the reason) and the mahi mahi tasted too much like chicken, probably overdone. David had steak and mahi mahi. Again, the mahi mahi was overdone, but the steak wasn't bad.
Surf Room Honolulu, HI
At the Royal Hawaiian Hotel in Waikiki. Eating a gourmet dinner outside while watching the surf roll up on the shore makes for a great experience. We also tried them for lunch and it was just as nice: Cobb salad was nicely done with avocado and blue cheese dressing and Gazpacho cold soup was yummy. For another lunch, rosemary rubbed chicken was great, as was the fried chow mein with barbecue beef sticks. The service is great. Be sure to get a Mai Tai-the Royal Hawaiian makes the best!
Tanaka of Tokyo Restaurant Honolulu, HI
Watch the chef prepare your meal right at your table on a grill. The man that manages the place saw one of us eating with a fork and made it a point to come over and teach us how to eat with chopsticks, which we thought was really nice. On our second trip, the teriyaki sirloin and also the shrimp and salmon were very good. It's a fun place with good food at a great price. The service is really good.
Top of Waikiki Honolulu, HI
Enjoy fabulous fare at this revolving restaurant with a great view of Waikiki. Great prices and every seat has a good view. On our second visit, the filet neptune was scrumptious-a nice filet mignon with 2 big lumps of dungeoness crabmeat-dungeoness crab reminds us of lobster-it's kind of sweet. The pepper crusted steak was also good-very tasty and spicy. The service is good.
Bongos Cuban Cafe Orlando, FL
Cuban food is great! We've been to Bongo's twice and loved it both times. The skirt steak with garlic topping is really good. The service is great and the drinks (especially the frozen ones) are big and refreshing.
Curley's Fries Wildwood, NJ
The best fries on the boardwalk. They're cooked in peanut oil and cut thick and ripply. There's always a line, but they serve quick and hot. The fried dough is good, too.
Two Mile Landing Wildwood, NJ
A really nice seafood restaurant. Keep in mind that in season, the wait can be quite long, but there's lots of places to sit outside and wait-usually a waitress will come around and get you drinks while you're waiting to be seated. The food is really good and the service is good, too. The sauteed backfin crab is our favorite entree-it's nothing but yummy crab and they give you alot.
Urie's Waterfront Restaurant Wildwood, NJ
A nice family seafood restaurant. The food is excellent and the service is good. There is usually a wait, but there's a nice gift shop and outdoor bar area where you can get a nice drink-try the Helen of Troy, it'll knock you out!
Pukalani Country Club Rstrnt Makawao, HI
Don't let the name fool you-it's VERY casual here. The best description for this place is-home cookin' Hawaiian style. 2 different menus-the traditional menu comes with rice or fries and a vegetable and includes shoyu marinated teriyaki steak, which was very tender and yummy, and also local fried chicken-nicely crispy and juicy. The Hawaiian menu has a nice island flair to it-all the entrees (stuff like different meats cooked laulau (in a ti leaf)style and other stuff and all entrees include poi, lomilomi salmon and some other Hawaiian type sides. There is a salad bar for an extra $3, too. There is no dessert menu, but all meals come with complementary self serve soft ice cream. We really enjoyed this experience-it was fun to go local!
Picnics Restaurant Paia, HI
If you're going to try the Road to Hana, this is the place to stop for your picnic lunch. They give you a lot of stuff, nicely packed for your trip. The picnic we got included a big sandwich, a half of a roasted chicken, drinks, chips, fruit, and dessert. They even give you a picnic tablecloth to spread out. The food is really good and they get everything together pretty quick.
Hecocks Italian Restaurant Lahaina, HI
Tables all have a nice ocean view, but there's no nonsmoking section, so if smoke really bothers you, don't eat here-they don't even care if people smoke cigars (YUK!) However, the food was tasty. The scallops in wine cream sauce were good. The scallops were done just right. The only little thing was that the sauce could have been reduced more-it was tasty but too thin. The mahi mahi was also very good. Service was okay-it took a little too long to get our dinners.
Winds of Beamreach Restaurant Princeville, HI
Very casual, with good food. The South Seas Pineapple Shrimp was really good-shrimp sauteed with peapods & mushrooms in a creamy pineapple sauce. The Hawaiian Steamed Red Snapper was also good-it was cooked in a sort of vanilla sauce. Good service and good prices, too.
Princeville Hotel Princeville, HI
Cafe Hanalei in the Princeville Hotel: Sit outside and enjoy a beautiful view of Bali Hai while you eat. Lunch here was excellent-the chicken with thai coconut curry sauce served with potatoes and rice was fantastic and the ahi with cajun style guava mayonnaise was very tasty. For a drink, try the Princeville Palace-it's a hawaiian style mimosa. Yummy.
Canoes At the Ilikai Honolulu, HI
We use the Entertainment coupon book in Hawaii, so that's where most of our choices come from-there are partial menus for the restaurants in the book. We went in, sat down, looked at the menu and left. The menu is nothing like the one listed in the book-most of the stuff looked kind of yukky. There was an all you can eat buffet-we took a look at it and it also looked yukky. This place has definitely seen better days.
