Experience the beauty of the Pacific Ocean at The Fish Hopper Seafood and Steak, overlooking Kailua Bay on the Big Island Hawaii. Enjoy fresh seafood from Hawaii and fresh seafood flown in weekly from California, plus our signature Bucket of Fire and Volcano flaming drinks, all within walking distance to shops and historic sites.

A landmark (formerly the Ocean View Inn) and a local’s favorite Kona restaurant since 1934, the building housing The Fish Hopper has been beautifully restored to expand upon its spectacular ocean views. We proudly serve seafood from sustainable sources, harvested by methods that do not harm the environment.

We love to honor our Veterans & Military! Please let us know if you are one, upon arrival.

    It starts with easy free parking (rare in Kona). And then you are sitting overlooking Kailua Bay: up close and personal. Absolutely beautiful. Service is friendly and efficient. Food is fresh, well prepared and delicious. Ono is a delicious fish and it’s often under cooked or over cooked. I rarely order in restaurants. I always order it at Fish Hopper. They get it right every time. And their fish and chips are made from Ono, not cod. The result is unique and delicious!

    We love the Fish Hopper. We make it a point to go there every time we are on the island. Last night I had the Seafood Risotto. It was fantastic!!! The drinks, food and atmosphere is what makes the Fish Hopper a great place to relax, unwind and enjoy the Aloha Spirit!!
