Hilo Town Tavern - American restaurant in Hilo - 168 Keawe St, USA

There aren’t many options for late night restaurants in Hilo these days, but Hilo Town Tavern is a solid spot to check out. The double smash burgers and fries here are awesome, great selection of beers and drinks, and the Monday night we were there the bar was packed for open mic night. Walk up to the bar to order food and drinks from the friendly staff. Street parking available. I’m glad we stopped in for a late night dinner and drink. Will definitely be back. 🤙🏼🤙🏼

Food was good and plentiful. I wish they would toss the wings and not fry the chicken sandwich so hard. Nachos are a big go to. We had barbque nachos! Yummy!

A great place for the after work convo. It is a great place to vent and heavy sigh. And breathe in positive vibes. Food hits the spot. The drinks are fun and help bring in the happy energy. But, if you need a refreshment to drown the day away. Just get a Tall Boy MODELO. Close your eyes. Take a sip. smile. And repeat. 🤙🏽

This place is fantastic. We got the Buffalo Bleu chicken sandwich and the Philly cheesesteak. They both come with really tasty fries and the Philly comes with au jus. The au jus really puts it over the top. The Buffalo also came piled high with bleu cheese, really didn’t take any shortcuts. Drinks are tasty and reasonably priced.

We came to this place tonight to have our dinner and I can say it was AMAZING! We ordered one Pulled pork sandwich, the nachos with beef and the burrito, everything SUPER delicious and good! I suggest you to come!! You will enjoy everything! The service was great and all the workers were super polite! 😁 thank you guys and to our waitress Joseph!! We’ll definitely come back!

I dinged them a star because one of the employees dogs was literally next to my table outside begging for food while I was eating. Not something most people want to experience while eating. Aside from that the food was absolutely delicious. The chef there has really made things taste so good. This place has a nice dine outside area. Fridays have live music outside. The Mozzarella Sticks are perfect. The ribs I got fell off the bone type...da best. The Hangover Burger 🍔 is extremely good too. Be sure to check out the game room for free pool 🎱 and GIANT connect 4 games.

Had a party of 13 and had great service and good food. Everyone got their food as it was prepared and it was hot & tasty. I had the Western Bacon Burger with Sweet Potato Fries. Burger was cooked perfectly, BBQ sauce was sweet & smoky and they used the perfect amount, not to much, not to little. The honey with my Sweet potato fries was also delish. Not sure what was different about it, but it definitely had more flavor than any other honey I've had.

Usually love the food, the vibe, the drinks. Friday night, EXTREMELY understaffed was an awful call by the new owners. Mitch was the MVP. Staff was overwhelmed and it's a shame compared to how it used to be. They don't deserve to be put in the situation but still handle it with grace. Won't be coming back until owners replace the staff that walked out (probably for good reason)
