Visit Kona: Sam Choy's Kai Lanai

We dined at Sam Choy's Kai Lanai on our last day of our recent trip to Kona since it was very close to our hotel.

Local Mix Plate

Noodle Mania

I ordered the Noodle Mania - chow mein noodles mixed with Big Island veggies and chicken (for extra) all in a crispy tortilla shell.  I thought it was a bit odd for the noodles to be in a tortilla shell, and the noodles and veggies were lacking flavor.

The Local Mix Plate comes with teriyaki beef, teriyaki chicken, and the fish of the day (I thought the chicken was very tasty), and also comes with two sides (choice of tossed salad, potato salad, white rice, brown rice, or mashed potatoes).

All keiki menu items are just $7.

The restaurant has a nice view of the ocean, and the service was good.
