Long considered an innovator of the ethnically diverse island cuisine, Cafe Pesto is both the award-winning Hilo Bay and Kawaihae Harbor family restaurants and has earned its reputation for food that is wonderfully fresh, creatively presented, and affordably priced. Cafe Pesto is a culinary adventure where diners can drift back through the colorful and contemporary island cuisine. Their Milolii sandwich (shrimp, crab, and mushrooms on very nice baguette) is a tasty local favorite, served with a side dish of Molokai potato salad. Their sweet & sour beef stir fry lunch with rice and vegetables is a yummy option, as are their pizzas and Greek pasta salads.

There is a convenient parking close to shops and galleries, near the harbor area, making it an easy respite in between shopping and exploring. The drinks are great and the goat cheese pizza is just creamy yumminess. The coconut crusted calamari is one of the best-prepared appetizers that you’ll ever have.
