Kona Grill El Paso

“I love the refined, yet relaxed vibe. The food is served timely, and in healthy portions. My current picks are the shrimp tempura, Kona calamari, and the sushi rolls. Dining here is always decidedly enjoyable, as the service is friendly, and top-notch, especially from Nicole, Jackie, Andrea & Alexa. Definitely, one of my favorite restaurants in El Paso. I'm actually planning to come back for dinner tonight!”

“My bestie and I went to El Paso from Carlsbad for the day. We chose to eat here. God places us where we need to be that’s for sure. The service from the door to the table was excellent. The manager is a gem. 💎 our server was a gem 💎, Aishah was not only stunning, she was full of culture, intellect, confidence, knowledge, dedication, determination, difference. We will serve back! The food was amazing! The seaweed, cucumber salad with the vinaigrette under the tuna is addictive. The avocado egg rolls are delicious with the sauce. I think they should offer either breast of grilled boneless, skinless chicken thighs with the cilantro chicken, because breasts even thinned get dry. Dark meat is more flavorful, and with the turmeric rice it would be fire. 🔥”

“Ordered 2 Big island ribeyes, an order of edamame, an order of potstickers, an order of spicy shrimp tempura, 2 kids cheeseburger meals(missing oranges, they said their produce truck didn’t come yet), California roll & the spicy tuna roll. I honestly think the food was mid. Definitely not worth the prices we paid. Staff was friendly & attentive. Giving a 3 because the food or prices could’ve been better.”

“Fish and chips weren't very good. Felt more like fish cakes. The prime rib fresh dip was not too bad. The pickles batter wasnt bad but needed a bit longer on the frier. The portion sizes were pretty small despite the large plate and the price was pretty expensive. Left hungry.”

“After coming across this restaurant online and noticing its strong ratings, I was genuinely looking forward to giving it a try. Upon arrival, the atmosphere did not disappoint. The ambiance was inviting, well-designed, and comfortable. The service was equally impressive—staff members were attentive, friendly, and professional throughout the evening. Unfortunately, the meal itself fell far short of expectations. I ordered the surf and turf, anticipating a satisfying combination of steak and lobster. However, the steak was cut so thin that it was reminiscent of something you might expect from a casual diner rather than a restaurant positioning itself as a premium dining experience. The portion lacked the substance and quality typically associated with this classic dish. The lobster tail was even more disappointing. It was noticeably small—so much so that it was difficult to justify it as a true lobster tail portion. The size and presentation did not align with the expectations set by the menu description or the establishment’s reputation. While the atmosphere and service were commendable, the food itself did not meet the standard implied by the reviews or pricing. As they say, everything is bigger in Texas—but unfortunately, that was not reflected on this plate. $260 WASTED!!!! Respectfully, A visitor from California”
