Review by Angela Labadie

September 17, 2024

Vessel Restaurant is a hidden gem located at the beautiful Kona Kai Resort! 🌊

We visited for dinner and absolutely loved the cozy yet upscale atmosphere. The sea bass was bursting with flavor, making it a dish to return for! 🐟 The crispy Brussel sprouts were a delightful surprise, and I couldn’t resist finishing the Mahi Mahi tacos - they were incredible!

The cocktails also won me over; definitely try the Island Vibe! 🍹 With stunning views of the marina and a great outdoor patio, it’s perfect for a special gathering or a casual night out. Highly recommend it for a lovely dining experience!
